Summer Camp

Summer Camp has a new EP, 'Young' coming out on moshi moshi on September 13th. It feels like it came straight out of the 80's and this video for it, soooooo nostalgic...its classic! I feel as if I am getting in the deloran, going back to 1985, and playing this song on my tape deck. Happy Friday the 13th!

Delorean - 'Subiza'

Delorean is a Spanish synthpop group from Barcelona, Spain. They have very dance heavy beats fit perfectly for an all night rave at da club. Their debut EP 'Ayrton Senna' got a lot of internet love last year, and they plan to release their debut LP 'Subiza' June 8th via True Panther Sounds. You can get a hold of the tracks now by pre ordering the album HERE. By doing so, you get a free digitial copy of the album 3 months before it hits stores. I gotta say, jamming to this album on the ride into work today got me all antsy in my pantsy for the warm months to come. When this album drops in June it will be the perfect summer soundtrack. You can hear the lead track 'Stay Close' below and also check out Delorean's Myspace


 Video should be watched via acid

Local Music Alert!!!!!!! - Straight To VHS

Oh shit!!!!! Just found my new garage rock punk band to follow. 'Straight To VHS' is a band out of New London, CT...and they are wasting no time getting their name out there. They are playing tons of shows and just released their debut EP titled 'Self Titled'. Lo-fi fuzzy guitars and multi tracked vocals, it all just sounds so badass. The multi tracking gives it a sound as if there is more then one person singing. You can compare them to the 70's punk of The Clash and The Sonic. The album has a rock and roll swagger to it, really really good!  I can't wait to check these guys out real soon. Head over to http://straighttovhs.bandcamp.com/ to stream &/or buy the album. Check out their Myspace for shows.

Best Kid Cudi Cover Ever.

How awesome is this yukalaylee cover of Kid Cudi's 'Pursuit of Happiness'

New Vampire Weekend Video


Vampire Weekend is back with a new video! The song is 'Giving Up The Gun' and it's hilarious!! Featuring a Jonas Bro, THE RZA, LiL John, and Jake Gyllenhaal. It's a weird tennis dream. The band is performing during different tennis matches in which a girl (same used for Cape Cod Kwas Kwas) is playing against random opponents. Yet another cheap, and awesome video from the boys...enjoy!

Andrew W.K., Japanther, Lemonade, Free Show in Hartford



'It's hard to imagine a more perfect pairing: The Hartford Party Starters Union celebrates its first anniversary Friday with a performance by Andrew W.K., who loves to party so much that the word is in the title of at least a half-dozen of his songs.

The booking is a coup for the Party Starters, a loosely organized group of area residents that formed a year ago with the intention of, well, starting parties and fomenting other activities to show that Hartford is more fun than many people think.' Source

What what what?!?! I am just finding out about this now?! (thank you Sierra for the tip). So, there is a group called The Hartford Party Starters, and I need to find a way to make them my best friends. They put together this group to throw sick parties in Hartford. You don't get any cooler then that. So tonight is the 1 year anniversary, and they are throwing a FREE show @ the The Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art. Check out the Facebook page for it ------->HERE!!!! see ya there!
