This is the song that will change your life. Their album Port of Morrow is quite good but this is my favorite type of The Shins. This is a live version of “New Slang”. It’s great. Enjoy.

Aesop Rock- “Zero Dark Thirty” (Video)
I know I have been posting a lot about Aesop Rock lately but his new album is coming quick. Pre-order Skelethon here. I just did. Here is the first video for his first single, “Zero Dark Thirty”. Cool art, nice rhymes, great new beard. Enjoy.
Big K.R.I.T. – “4evaNaDay” (Video)
This is the official video for Big K.R.I.T.’s title track of his mixtape 4evaNaDay. This is a stand-out track that you might need a decent sound sound system to truly appreciate. Southern Hip-Hop at it’s finest. Watch out for his proper release Live From the Underground on Def Jam June 5th. Enjoy.
Aesop Rock and Kimya Dawson are The Uncluded – “Bats”
This is exactly what I thought this would sound like. Kimya Dawson does her cute, folky, kooky sing-songy rhymes. And Aesop Rock delivers his tongue-twisting delivery and kills it as usual. The Uncluded album Hokey Fright will drop at some point after Aesop Rock’s Skelethon (July10th). Here is “Bats”. It is a 6:44 track that just makes me want more. A lot more. The lyrics are included in this particular video(with some typos). Enjoy.

Beach House – “Lazuli”
I love this band. Their album Bloom will be out May 15th. Here is the latest single “Lazuli”. It’ sounds like the greatest retro video game ever. Enjoy.
Cleveland Cavaliers w/o LeBron James
I feel bad for them. When LeBron left, I felt horrible. They were defiant. They said they didn’t need LeBron, they did. They said they will win a Championship before Lebron does, they won’t(I hope they do). They were burning his jersey and tweeting about him being replaceable, he’s not. They need him and will continue to need him. They whole city needs him.
They got lucky with the #1 pick and got a nice player, Kyrie Irving in a down year for the draft. I think they can turn it around in a few years. A couple good drafts and the development of Omri Casspi will do the trick.
This story is all you need to know about the Cavaliers. It is sad. They currently have 7 players with D-League experience. Ouch. Their roster is filled with, “Who?” guys. On the bright side, Luke Haragody is doing well. Enjoy.
Deep Time – “Clouds”
I don’t know much about this band other than they used to be called Yellow Fever, they are a duo and from Austin, Texas. I thought this song was worth sharing, friends. It will be the best 2:46 you have spent listening to music today. Enjoy.
Tennis- “Petition”
I have to credit my friend Nick for putting me on this. I kept hearing good things about this band but never got around to listen. At first glance it looks like Melissa Etheridge, luckily it is not. This is catchy pop music at it’s best. I have posted a live version and album version. Enjoy.

Aesop Rock – “Zero Dark Thirty”
This is the first single off of Skelethon. “Down from a huntable surplus to one, down from a huntable surplus to one”. Woh. July 10th can’t come soon enough. Play this on good speakers and leave some space to head nod. Enjoy.
Florence + The Machine – MTV Unplugged
I honestly have not watched MTV in about 5 years. I think it is a sign of getting older and more mature. Or it might be that I don’t like watching train-wrecks, teen pregnancies, fist pumping, or Carson Daly(In my brain TRL still exists and this stroke still hosts it). But, I have always had a lot of respect for the Unplugged series. Here is Florence + The Machine effortlessly performing a beautiful show. When you hear Florence Welch or Adele sing it’s just so easy for them. It is refreshing to see. Compare this type of live singing to someone with hype behind them i.e. Lana Del Rey. Click the picture and enjoy.
