It’s been quite a long time since i posted, being crushed under a mountain of bullshit USH assignments makes it hard to sneak a post in.
This gem comes to us fron E*Rock, the brother of E*Vax (of Ratatat) and one of the most fun people to see live. During his show, he controlled a full sensory assault with a lap top and a wiimote. At one point he thrashed around for like 10 minutes, making explosing sounds with wiimotes. It was one of the most amazing things i have ever seen live.
Here’s a video if you wanna learn a lil more about him

The internet is amess with love for formspring.me. It’s finally reached that social-network tipping point where the handful of people (myself included) resisting signing up finally cave in, create an account, and post it on their facebook status with a comment about how it’s stupid but they’re doing it anyway. You might say we’re formsprung. Oh hoh!
The first question to hit Taylor Dow’s formpsring account was this:
‘you gay or something?’
Immediately I knew this was the social network for me.
I like to wake up to music. When I hop out of bed and rub Mr. Sandmans little gifts out of my eyes, I put on whatever track’s been going through my mind lately. Right now it’s The Bloody Beetroots’ remix of Second Lives.

Today, I am going to take a step away fro the normal indie/electronica focus of this blog in favor of some Post-Metal.
This is one of my all time favorite bands and this song is especially good.
Close your eyes and listen.

I did not realize that it’s been nearly a month since I posted last, but time flies. But enough about me, onto the music.
Washed Out is a one man band from Georgia who uses lofi beats and vocals to give himself a very nostalgic feel, which seems to be gaining popularity quickly these days. On his myspace he describes himself as a lyrical minimalist, and while I’m not quiet sure exactly what that means I feel it works perfectly for him. Give him a listen, and see for yourself.
