Seems as if I’m still dealing with technical problems on indie music filter. You’ll notice a hell of a bunch of my posts include weird characters (ie. a question mark in a black diamond), which I think I know how to fix. Also, last weeks issues made my twitter feed go nuts. Sorry if it looked like I was being overly keen on new music, I didn’t mean to clog anyone’s stream. In the meantime, here’s a whack of different things I’m into online.
-As part of Giant System Chicago, here’s a band called Golden Birthday. Cool video, track and bandname (mine was my 19th).

–Two new videos of The Walkmen (via Stereogum).
–Canada Day celebrations in Toronto with Tragically Hip, Weezer, BSS, Hey Rosetta! and Buck 65.
and now for the remixes:
–Dave Sitek of TV On The Radio redoes “Young Blood” by The Naked and Famous.
–RAC puts a spin on Washed Out’s “New Theory”.
–RAC (Maury) takes on Surfer Blood’s “Take It Easy”
Video: “To The Alps” by Princeton. Grab the track from IGIF.

Back with more of their signature psych-folk, San Fran’s duo The Dodos are ready to release the Neko Case collaborated album No Color. Don’t Stop is a great intro to the record and fits with what I love to expect from the band, super quick guitar plucking and frenetic drums. Look for that one March 15th on Frenchkiss.
Song: Don’t Stop.
When I first heard the song “Dirty Thing” by Telekinesis last summer, the song totally hooked me. Coming from the Parallel Seismic Conspiracies EP released in August of 2010, this track had me with a soundtrack to summer, a spot on my class of 2010 mixtape and a cause for salivation waiting for the 2nd full-length from the band. Take a listen.

Well the track did make the new album, this years’ 12 Desperate Straight Lines, and the song significantly changed. It seems to be a step higher with a lot less impact and most notably, where is that dirty thing (ie. that dirty guitar sound)? Who knows. If it were me, I’d keep the original version and swap it out for the new version.

Just saying. As for the rest of the record? I’m digging it. Gets played a lot here.
Apologies if you’ve been checking the site in the last few days and haven’t been able to find anything new. I kind of broke my site on friday and had to rebuild a significant portion of my sidebar. Back to normal now, stay tuned.
