The Animals - The House Of The Rising Sun

Really wish someone would make a decent video for this one.

Chinese Man - Shikantaza

Amazing job by Fred & Annabelle on the video. The hippo is my favorite.

Focus - Hocus Pocus

The in and out cuts on this upload grind my gears. Performance is legendary.

FM Hi Low - Human Enemy

This video doesn't really do justice to how good Fraser McDonald and friends are live, or how great this track is... so I'm posting the audio link below it too.

TAKE TWO
(studio cut)

Green Velvet - Flash

This is actually the Channel X remix. Bumpin' house. It sounds almost nothing like the original, a legendary track that was among a few to welcome me into the wide world of electronic music. My personal favorite remix was this one by Danny Tenaglia.

Bonobo - Cirrus

This is now older than I remembered it being.

Denzel Curry & Badbadnotgood - Ultimate

Good by themselves, great as a team. Teamwork.

Minotaurs - Echoes

Apparently from Guelph, Ontario? Very cool, would like to see them live.

Puddles Pity Party - Folsom Prison Pinball Wizard

Been a while since I've posted some Puddles.

Leo James Conroy - Forbidden Fruit

'Open mic night.' Right.

Senbei - Ningyo

Well this is pretty dang cool.

Rundfunk-Tanzorchester Ehrenfeld - Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger

Crazy live performance of this little ditty.

Thundamentals - Never Say Never

Funk. Fridays. Yessir.

Warren Zevon - Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner

Here's an old-timey classic from a great songwriter gone too soon.

Socially Exceptable - Life Ain't Fair

Freddy Beach hip-hop tag team champions NFP and Ceeb Dread. Whatsup.

Black Pistol Fire - Speak Of The Devil

I like this loud business. Let's mix in some blues with that grunge.

Rage Against The Machine - No Shelter

Alright, alright. We'll do something metal. Just play it loud, ok?

The True Loves - Famous Last Words

Still got energy? I hear ya. Let's keep it funky.

Anderson Paak - Come Down

It's Saturday. That means it's time to get down. Shout outs to G-Load.

Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats - NPR Tiny Desk Concert

High quality Friday afternoon sunshine sociable music. I could go for a pint.

1. I Need Never Get Old

2. Look It Here

3. I've Been Failing You

4. Mellow Out

Young Fathers - In My View

New album on the way from these cats. Did you know they're from Scotland? This new track reminds me a bit of Massive Attack in the production.

Kimbra - Human

I posted a song that apparently featured Kimbra in it the other day though I'm not super convinced. Haven't actually heard any new music from her in a while. New album apparently coming in April. Looking forward to it, always find her work interesting if not great.

Ravyn Lenae - Sticky

First song I've ever heard from this artist. Super phat.

Hey Rosetta! - I've Been Asleep For A Long, Long Time

This is supposed to be Metal Monday. Well let's be honest for a moment, there are no rules around here. Rules are for the birds. Please direct any complaints you might have to this brick wall.

I slept for about 13 hours last night. Straight. On the couch. TKO'd. No dinner. No Superbowl. No writing. Suffice to say I was tired. Sleep didn't really happen for me apart from a couple hours nap here for there from about Thursday. Starting to think I have too much on the go.

Today is catch-up day. El Bloggo is now good to go. Sort of. Still have a few Best Of's to get to further down the road.

In the meantime Tim Baker & Co. are bringing me back to life. Hope they're enjoying whatever it is they've been up to since December. Probably a lot of not much.

Fort Knox Five - Hipster Run Things

Shout-outs to Evil C. This is actually the DC's Finest Remind Remix.

B00ty - Loosen Up

Saturday. Dance. Chunes. I dare you not to boogie.

Five Alarm Funk - Widowmaker

Funk Friday. Complete with shark and gorilla.

Gowan - Strange Animal

Throwback Thursday.

I wanted to post the original 1985 video, alas I couldn't embed it so....

2006 live piano version in the Glenn Gould Theatre it is.

P.S. it's February.
