Beck covering INXS’ “Kick” for his Record Club
26, Mar 2010Record Club is a thing where Beck gets some people together and then re-records a whole album. Record Club: INXS “Guns In The Sky” from Beck Hansen on Vimeo. Kick was one of the very first tapes I got from BMG and I wore it out. I love those songs. I’m going to follow this [...]

Spoon at The National
25, Mar 2010With Strange Boys and Deerhunter. We got there a little late and missed Strange Boys. I really liked Deerhunter. I hadn’t heard them before and I liked the noise/feedback/kinda-Spacemen 3-ness of it. I’m curious to hear if it translates on record.
Scott Pilgrim trailer is GO!
25, Mar 2010It’s already all over everywhere, but I’m such a Scott Pilgrim fan that I want to be sure you guys see it.

24, Mar 2010From the Stones Throw compilation The Minimal Wave Tapes – Vol.1. The video isn’t much more than a Soviet and Russian slideshow, but I’m hooked on the song. That whole comp is worthwhile if you like that early electronic sound from the 70′s and 80′s. I’m into it.

Chevy Apache 10
11, Mar 2010I saw this on my way to grab lunch the other day. I love old pickup trucks. This one was in great shape but it wasn’t all “restored”-looking. The wood planks in the bed were roughed up like it was still in steady use but the whole thing was clean, like the guy who owns [...]
