the muppets [season 1]

It's time to get things started! #TheMuppets are coming to ABC and this is your first look! https://t.co/mXqsQtgQXr — The Muppets ABC (@TheMuppetsABC) May 12, 2015 //platform.twitter.com/widgets.js This. Is. Happening! Of course it will probably be over-hyped, over-marketed, under-budgeted, and given a short-leash with ratings and last one-half season this fall.

Penguin Prison + Eternal [dance pop]

More from Mr Popper himself… Penguin Prison dropped his latest LP last week, Lost in New York, and the track “Show Me the Way” that made it to the top of the hypem popular charts. Cant believe it’s been 6 years since we blogged about Glover’s first release, and then when he got the Oliver […]

Digitalism + RAC [electro pop]

I must’ve not been blogging at this time last year when this came out.. because there’s zero chance this would’ve missed the site. As it features two of our favorite names in the game, Digitalism and RAC. The original version of the track is verrrrry Digitalism-esque with those bassy synths and korg-styled drum kits. The […]

La Roux + Jack Beats [#tbt]

Starting up a new thing here… trying to stay hip with the youngster hashpound lingo (fuuuuck you kids). But each Thursday we’ll be resurfacing some of our favorite tracks of the last 8 years of running this blog. First up is an old favorite, both in original artist and remixer. Originally posted in our bestuvohnein […]

Sterling Fox + ALMOND & SAMME [electronica]

Summer is around the corner which means it’s currently in the middle of springtime for us important mercator-preferred northern hemisphere denizens. And what *that means is jumpy, chirpy, airy, dreamy, happy electronica. Not sure the longevity of this track, just because I dont think the accelerated lyrics work as well as the original down tempo […]

Cape Lion [dream pop]

Old track. 2014 re release. Whatever you want to classify this as, it’s a fantastic song. Well produced volcals, synthy accompnaiment, retro percussion out a John Hughes film… alllll good characteristics. Image by joey-zero

Chainsmokers + sirenXX + Dave Edwards [prog house]

Fuuuuuuck I like this. Plus its more than just club-anthem mix interlude like the original (also posted). The vocals from sirenXX are hauntingly adolescent and endearing. To quote a reddit comment… “I’m conflicted. The vocals are catchy and beautifully sung but I really don’t want to say them aloud…”  Yes. But in my head I’m […]

Cazzette + Oliver Nelson /prog house

So I noticed a few of the comments on SoundCloud for this Sleepless remix were negative describing it as just the same song slowed to 110 bpm and a steady kick-clap… but I disagree. There is no reason to ever read social media comments. While the Oliver Nelson remix provides a slower more chill tempo than […]

Phoebe Ryan /indie pop

It’s snowing a lot. I could make some metaphorical comment about how that relates to my life currently, but its not even worth it. That in itself could symbolize my thoughts on current happenings more than other words. meh. Phoebe Ryan – Mine
