Earlier this week, British indie songstress Imogen Heap released a teaser video for her upcoming album Ellipse. In the trailer, she showcases what she has been up to musically in the last two years. It’s pretty evident that she has a wide variety of uncommon and unconventional insturments, half of which I don’t even know [...]
Today marked the release of Drake’s much anticipated “Best I Ever Had” music video. It’s been a big week for the Degrassi star-turned rapper. A couple of days ago he was signed to Lil’ Wayne’s Young Money record label. Being that “Best I Ever Had” is Drake’s most popular song, I expected the video that [...]
17 Hours have never passed so quickly. Maybe it was the stop at Sonic that kept us going (us New Englanders think of it as some Holy Grail of fast food), but most likely it was the excitement of Bonnaroo finally becoming a reality. Honestly, I feel like my visit in Manchester, TN was a [...]
If there’s ever been two things that don’t belong together, it’s electronic oddball Dan Deacon and an NBC morning news/talk show. This awesome footage has just recently regained popularity. It features Dan Deacon performing “Ohio” (and doing his thing), while an entire news station collectively watches/listens in what we can only imagine to be a [...]
Once upon a time there was this brilliant film director named Patrick Daughters who directed short films, commercials and videos for indie artists. They were brilliant. The end?
Ooh, not even close. This Cali cool man is all but 33 years old, pumping out more indie-related videos than a 17-year-old guitar player with a bad haircut [...]
We’ll keep it short and sweet today. Our favorite rapper from Degrassi is back in the limelight again. We’ve already posted two of Drake’s mixtape albums, Comeback Season and So Far Gone, so it only makes sense for us to post the third. In this case, that would be Room for Improvement, Drake’s first official [...]
Just stumbled across this collection of sick remixes that was released the other day from Team Teamwork, thanks to my girl Courtney. It’s so good, that I couldn’t wait around for Mixtape Mondays — I had to post it now in time for the weekend. The Good-ass Remixes Vol. 1 is the second release by [...]
It might be the intro’s pulsing and the sing-stuttering or maybe it’s the rock pop and glazed vocals. I don’t know for sure, but whatever the reason, Phoenix’s single ‘1901′ got me through finals week despite late nights, all nighters, and pure misery.
Emergency song kit coming your way:

This week, I feel like showing some love to the up-and-coming rap genius Wiz Khalifa. Originally hailing from Pittsburgh, the 21-year old Wiz Khalifa has already shared the stage with the likes of Ghostface Killah, Styles P, Lupe Fiasco, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, Cham, Little Brother, Clipse, Lil Wayne, Young Jeezy, Lil Scrappy, Mario, T.I., Nas, and [...]
Gregg Gillis, aka Girl Talk, has been known to frequently perform on college campuses and take over the college music scene. In fact, he got his start performing shows on the weekends while still a student at Case Western Reserve University. He eventually went on to graduate, and get a job as an engineer before [...]
