Posted by doubter on Sunday, July 15th, 2012

sadly, i have been sitting on these new some dark holler tracks for a few weeks now, but as i have said before i have been so freakin pre-occupied with everything life is throwing at me. anyway, these two tracks are from their yet untitled this is american music release which is due out sometime this summer. was a huge fan of their ep, and cannot wait for this cause these two songs are fucking great.

hey baton rouge peoples! my man cory branan is coming to our fair city tomorrow night at the hartley vey theatre in support of his most excellent new record, mutt. i wrote about the record a month or so back, which you can check out here and i said in the “review” that it was a “grower” and i definitely still stand by that. still its definitely one of the best records i have heard this year. i have never seen him live, but i hear he’s one of the best. so dont miss out on this one!

Posted by doubter on Thursday, July 12th, 2012
top of the day! honestly, i dont know much about the posies, as i have never really listened to em. sure, i know quite a bit about em, but that never led me to check em out. i had a buddy on twitter request some posies stuff so i figured i would comply. for those posies fans out there. where should i start?
1. definite door
2. when mute tongues can speak
3. i am the cosmos
4. love letter boxes
5. flavor or the the month
6. earlier than expected
hallelujah the hills “get me in a room” big digits mix
Posted by doubter on Tuesday, July 10th, 2012
y’all probably know how i feel about remixes, and if you dont, ill lay it out simply, i usually hate em. the only remixes i like are public enemy remixes from the late 80′s – early 90′s. granted there are a few i like, but the majority, not so much. so, when i heard about a remix of probably my favorite song of the year “get me in room,” off my favorite record of the year no one knows what happens next, i had to check it out. its cool, i could do without the rapping, cause i dont think it necessarily fits, but i dig the beats.

Posted by doubter on Tuesday, July 10th, 2012
oh how i used to love beth orton, then she just kind of fell off my musical map, but still i hold her first two records dear to my heart. well, she’s back, signed to anti and is releasing sugaring season on 10.2. loving this song, so here’s hoping its a return to form.
feel bad for july: feel bad for you monthly mix tape
Posted by doubter on Tuesday, July 10th, 2012
dont know if youre hip to the monthly mixtape that good friends feel bad for you do, but i figured i would make you aware of it. sometimes i contribute, sometimes i dont, but even when i dont there are other great peoples adding their selected tracks to said mixtape. my selection was the lead track arliss nancy’s “the crease” which is off simple machines, definitely one of my favorite records of the year.
