Lupe Fiasco

just a rebel, lookin for a place to be....

lupe fiasco has pretty much broke in to the mainstream at this point but, he's still rockin it. his new album pretty good too.

but,his older jams are fo sho his best.

Amon Tobin



Amon Tobin was one of the headliners at Yuri's Night and his set made a few thousand people dance like I had never seen. He creates his own tracks through sampling jazz/ blues records and everyday sounds. Amongst other things. Check out his website because it kicks ass in a dark electronic way and you can really get a taste of all his tracks.

They have a song Check your head that I am obsessed with, but I couldn't find a good video that sounded good to post. This one is awesome too. They are just so....rad!! It definately makes me wana dance and fight for what is right! I guess I would call them raggaeish with some rocking....it just rox....maybe you have heard them.

Hazaah!

Okay here we go, got it to upload on youtube. The song they are playing is called top drawer, if you want to actually hear it better i suggest going to http://www.myspace.com/wearemanman and listening to every song on their page.

Man Man rocked my world!


We went to see Man Man last night in Omaha, and it was a very awesome show. Its not very often that i randomly came across a band that i just love instantly, and then only love more the more of their stuff i hear, and this is one of those bands. So when i saw they were playing so close i was pretty excited. And much thanks to keenan for agreeing to go to this show even though he didn't really know the band, and it was on his birthday. He rules. I think he enjoyed it as well. They put on a very high energy show. every member seems to play several instruments, including a few non-instruments, such as a saucepan and a kazoo, and at one point a set of keys. I highly recommend that anyone go see them if they get the chance just because it is a unique music experience.Keenan took a video with my camera that i am going to try to put up if i can figure it out. The sound sucks of course, but the picture turned out pretty well for being taken with a digital camera.

Okay so i couldn't get the video to load on here, i will have to try to put it up on youtube or something.

Eisley, what a good listen for a serious mellow day

This band seriously is was the perfect music for today, I didn't know what I wanted to listen to, Im tired, very mellow, got some shit done, it was time to sit down, chill, and listen to something. I tried some tsunami bomb...too upbeat for today, then throwning muses, that worked until it ended, I can never rock out to them too much, so Eisley, was perfect, I love them so much, I heard of them a few years ago when I lived in Johnston and I fell in love with them, they harmonize beautifully, and they totally rock, it can be a bit melo-dramatic, so be warned, but I love them so much, they are like a lot of the "emo" I listen to I guess...but what I like about them is they are not girls that sing...well all of the band is not girls, but the whole "emo" scene seems to be dominated by all of these screaming guys...which rox too....but Eisley will top any of them any day as far as I am concerned!! OK....enjoy!! If you hadn't heard them before check them out! Im not sure if they have a myspace or not...I will find out, oh myspace....oh my god!! ok...

Flowmotion

So i have been listening to these guys and going to shows, since i moved out here I think i first saw them in 2000, thanks to my friend jessica. they are awesome, so cool to dance to and have the most amazing energy. my favorite was on sanjuan island halloween 2000 for a party, it was on the coast in the circular house with the top level looking down at the band, it was fucken sweet! so enjoy and groove along to one of the greatest energy driven bands around.

Please sing along to Alicia's top 3



My top 3 songs I for now, they are all super duper awesome, and meaningful to me!!

what?

So i have to admit somethng so obscure, you will all just die laughing at my stupid ass. So there has been some really cool music going on around me that i just don't pay attention to. Like who is actually singing the songs, where they are from and the fact that i could actually go see them like whenever. So i have finally figured out that death cab from cutie, are actually from bellingham, wa, like 20 minutes from me. and i have been listening to the songs for like a while, obviously and not even knowing what is going on. see that's my problem, i never pay attention to all the details about certain artists. but i really like their songs and they are from around here and that's a totaly plus. so glad we have this blog, then i am not out in the cold from things like this! thanx girlz!!!
