Thao & Mirah Cover “Love is a Battlefield”
I’m typically not a fan of cover songs–why try to outdo an already fantastic song?  But sometimes a cover comes along that is so unique, so creative, I forget it’s a cover. Thao & Mirah’s take on Pat Benatar’s classic “Love is a Battlefield” is a perfect example of this. Their rendition gives the original...
February Love Jams
These are the songs that filled our musical hearts with love. Bon Iver & St. Vincent- Roslyn Ever wondered what a Bon Iver & St. Vincent collaboration would sound like? Well, this song provides an answer–it sounds like Bon Iver, with a little extra reverb, but mostly it just sounds like classic Bon Iver. It...
“The XX Gon’ Give it to Ya” Delivers
The Hood Internet mashup, “The XX Gon’ Give it to Ya,” is a mash made in heaven. It is the perfect blend of DMX and The XX on so many levels. Not only does it offer an amusing play on words, but The XX instrumentals also blend in perfectly with DMX’s harsh voice. The song...

Ariel Pink’s Haunted Mp3
Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, “Round and Round” Rating 4.5 out of 5.0 My iPhone is stuck in the 1960s– or at least that is what someone might think if they listen to my recent playlist. With the wave of ’60s inspired tracks that have been reaching my radar lately, I really have been flooded with...
Going GaGa for Nada? Meet The Knife.
I find the Lady Gaga mania that is gripping our nation to be quite odd. Fans act like she is the most innovative performer since Ziggy Stardust. Well I take that back. It’s a bad comparison, because I doubt the majority of her fans actually know who Ziggy Stardust is (although she claims David Bowie...
