Hudson Mohawke -> Drum&Bass/Electronica

It’s been a while since I’ve been excited by any new drum&bass/electronica, but this stuff coming from UK based ‘Hudson Mohawke’ is explosively good. ‘Hudson Mohawke’ is comprised of a pretty large group of djs, synth heads and beat analysts -> Anthony Chopkins, John Computer, Itchy, Hudson Mo, Hudson_Mobile, Kirk T, Peter Quistguard, Mo-Mac, Conan [...]

Yo La Tengo/Here to Fall -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 31st ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by one of my all time fav’s ‘Yo La Tengo’ (out of Hoboken, New Jersey) with their live rendition of ‘Here to Fall’. I have always enjoyed their experimental ways and heady vibes. I actually like this live version more than the studio version. Good stuff from folks with [...]

Today’s 29th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by UK band ‘We Have Band’ called ‘You Came Out’. Shot over 2 days and stop frame animated from 4,816 still images. Yes, that means no video at all. Check out the Flickr link below to see all the stills. Pretty insane. The track itself is a nice peppy [...]

‘Editors’ -> Band Hacks Google Street View

I took notice of this campaign on the Creative Review.co.uk’s website last week. At first I was kind of feeling underwhelmed, but after letting the idea render in my head for a while I’ve decided it is a pretty innovative digital marketing approach even if there are very few exposures to be had from it. [...]

MusicVision -> Pheonix

I enjoy finding out about people’s top music lists, whether their an artist, musician or a good friend. It can be very revealing. The above documentary by Guillaume Delaperriere called “MUSICVISION PHOENIX is twenty tracks that changed our lives”, features members Thomas Mars, Deck d’Arcy, Laurent Brancowitz, Christian Mazzalai from the band Phoenix. Makes for [...]

The Deadly Syndrome/Emily Paints -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 28th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is by west coast band ‘The Deadly Syndrome’. Last week when I posted those great night shots by Will Etling, one of his fans or friends posted a link to his band and suggested I go check them out. Long story short, I did and they are really good, especially [...]

Ufffie/Pop the Glock -> Midweek Music Bump

Someone’s taken some notes from Madonna’s early career… Today’s 27th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a shocking French rap/electronica/dub diva named ‘Uffie’. Her super edgy sexed up lyrics accompanied by some fresh creative beats and 80s synth effects make her track ‘Pop the Glock’ very disruptive and unique amongst others in her genre. The video is [...]

Girls/Lust For Life -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 26th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a quirky rock jangle by San Francisco based band ‘Girls’ called ‘Lust For Life’. I like the low-fi film quality that is reminiscent of something that an old school Lomo camera would produce and the cast of characters shown in odd scenarios mouthing along to the lyrics. Up-beat and [...]

Sunset Rubdown/Black Swan -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 24th ‘Midweek Music Bump‘ is a track by Wolf Parade vocalist/keyboardist Spencer Krug’s sideline project -> Sunset Rubdown called ‘Black Swan’. This video displays some interesting spot-lit foliage and star-lit night scapes that are peppered with some creepy skeletons followed by occasional explosions of kaleidoscopic graphics. The music itself is very 60′s acid rock [...]

Passion Pit/Sleepyhead -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 23rd ‘Midweek Music Bump’ (wow, I’m up to 23!?) is a track by an American electronic band from Cambridge, Massachusetts -> Passion Pit called ‘Sleepyhead’. The last couple weeks I have been listening to a lot of heavy synth based music and trying shoot light trails with my camera. Don’t get the wrong idea, [...]

Mayer Hawthorne/Maybe So, Maybe No -> Midweek Music Bump

Mayer Hawthorne – Maybe So, Maybe No from Stones Throw on Vimeo.

Today’s 21st ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is a track by Mayer Hawthorne called ‘Maybe So, Maybe No’. This is a great track, it’s got a little classic ‘Earth Wind and Fire’ horn action going on that I dig. + the skate scenes… I’m all [...]

Miracle Man/Cocosuma -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 21st ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is a track by Miracle Man called ‘Cocosuma’. This highly detailed stop motion video was shot and directed by J-A-C-K. There are plenty of swirling skulls, burning candles and some odd highly accessorized vegetables to keep your attention. That’s why it’s this week’s ‘Midweek Music Bump’.

Miracle Man -> Myspace

Past [...]

Animal/Miike Snow -> Midweek Music Bump

Today’s 20th ‘Midweek Music Bump’ is a track by Miike Snow called ‘Animal’. The video was shot with some nice image mapping technology which I have posted about a few times in the past. It’s fun to see that technology start to grow into different uses. Nice up-beat track as well. That’s why it’s this [...]
