I've been feeling like my current music selections were getting a little stale and spending a lot of time listening to podcasts to hear some fresh shit. Here are some fun new(ish) to me finds:
Skeletons and The Girl Faced Boys, Git
GhostlyCasts first exposed me to the band and sheer repetition put them into my head. I saw two shows in one week and I'm an official fan.
Kathy Diamond, I Need You
I was sitting here at home earlier with the Out of Range podcast going while I was half asleep and I sprung up when this song was playing. I must've rewound it about three times before I got the artist name.
The Knife, Like A Pen (Hearthrob Remix)
You know, I don't remember where I first heard this song at this point. It must've been at a club one night because now that I know it, I hear it all the time now. I didn't get a name though until I heard it on the XLR8R podcast.
My Brightest Diamond, Workhorse
GhostlyCast also introduced me to this song, but the Lusine remix that I can't track down no matter how hard I try (though granted, I haven't tried that hard). The original version still cool.
Marco Polo feat. Masta Ace, Nostalgia
I'm in love with that fucking song. The video (despite me posting it) is on the corny side because there's such a thing as too '93 in this day and age. But any song that has Aaron and I bonding over its sickness is an A+. So far, I've only heard on Fat Beats Radio, but then again, I haven't listen to the real radio on purpose in god knows how long. It could be the #1 song on Hot 97 and I'd have no fucking clue.
James Chance and The Contortions, Contort Yourself
This one's just for shits and giggles. I was just reading about him the other day and it made me remember I like the song.
And a super fun video bonus remembered thanks to an ILM thread:
