Paper Planes - M.I.A. →
Best played around 1:45am after a long night on the town. Bonus points for wearing cowboy boots and awakening your downstairs neighbors. I just DARE you to not dance to this song.

Yet again I missed a day, so you get TWO songs today instead of just one. For this one, just click on the link & it will play. And, you know, you *could* download it if you wanted to. Just sayin’.

Distraction
Internets, let me formally apologize: I’ve been lax in posting as of late. I missed Friday then thought I’d post a few things over the weekend, only to have it somehow end up Sunday night and found myself enjoying a lovely dinner into the wee hours of the morning. Then it was Monday, and again, my day/night was shot. No excuses, just apologies. To (hopefully) make up for it, you get a...

uncalibrated - bridges & powerlines →
You know those days when you want to listen to some good music but don’t really know what you’re in the mood to hear? “Ghost Types”, by bridges & powerlines - a NYC-based quartet who recived critical acclaim for their EP - is the perfect album for this, as each song is catchy, yet unubtrusive.

Where Have You Been? →
Fitting song for a post that’s a day late, I present you with “Where Have You Been” off of Manchester Orchestra’s awesome album I’m Like a Virgin Losing a Child. Basically, 6:15 of pure, unadulterated awesomeness. Bonus points for having the coolest website around.

Support the economy!
Lots (ok, three) of you had mentioned how cool it would be if you could also download the songs I’m posting here. Unfortunately, that would be TRES illegal, and I prefer my life un-incarcerated. BUT…Amazon offers most of these songs for a mere $0.99 so for pennies (PENNIES, I say!) you can buy them for your very own. I’ve even posted a link to the album right from the site, so...
