Music Video Of The Day
This track is off of the 2001 album Enjoy Your Rabbit. The 10+ year late video is here to match the long awaited vinyl release. Apperntly if you buy the vinly in certain select record stores, it comes with a Sufjan Steven fortune cookie like the one below...
BRB going to try and find one in Toronto.
Happy Canada Day!
Because it finally feels like summer. Take me to your cottage.
This Las Vegas kid knows what the heck it up.
His debut NORTHTOWN EP is out now on GODMODE & I can't stop playing it on repeat.
Sexy Saturday night summer jam. Love this track. Can't get enough of it.
In a cab on my way to see the dude live. I am STOKED! Saw him last summer at Osheaga and it was spiritual.
Well now I wanna make-out. Who wants to make out?
Austa's new EP Habitat is out now. It's dimly lit and lust-ious. Stream it below.
Austra will be playing World Pride at Toronto's Yonge & Dundas Sq this Saturday at 10pm.
The first memory I have of music is of this song.
My parents are pretty young. When I was little & growing up they'd often have friends over for parties. There was a specific mix CD my dad had made and he played whenever we were having people over; it started with this song. I called it "the party song" and would beg my parents to play it so I could have dance parties in the living room.
Can you blame me? It's such a groove.
RIP
This chiccccccccccck.
So good. So good. So into it.
All her visuals are just so in check. Everything. She just IS. Does any of that make sense?
She's an entire entity. She has her own world, her own planet even, and I want to go.
Caught her live at Wrongbar this past April and she holds up live. Her voice is stunning.
FKA Twigs will be back in Toronto August 8th at the Danforth Music Hall.
Her debut album, titled LP1, is due out August 12th on Young Turks.
Check out the stunning album art below.
They're set to play the Drake Hotel Wednesday July 9th and I'm so excited. Was lucky enough to catch them at the Pitchfork church showcase this past SXSW - chill inducing stuff. Check out the live clip of "Out Alee" below from their sophomore album The Moon Rang Like A Bell (perfect Monday music by the way).
Because she's a bad ass and totally took over the Silver Dollar, closing up NXNE.
Check the vine below, in which she ended the show handing off her guitar to the crowd.
She plays a free show at Yonge and Dundas Square at 9pm tonight for NXNE. I'm stoked.
Because...
a) Their super rad album Hard Boiled Soft Boiled (out now - the vinyl is stunning) just made the Polaris Long List!
b) They play NXNE today - 5:30 at Yonge & Dundas + 1am tonight at The Garrison
Shout outs to talented bad ass bitches.
This band is SO intense in the absolutely best way.
This video makes me squirm but also I love it.
They're playing NXNE. Catch them live and understand.
Adelaide Hall Thursday, June 19 @ 11 PM
The Great Hall Saturday, June 21 @ 3:20 PM
You look like David Bowie, but you've nothing new to show me...
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah are playing the Horseshoe tonight.
Their 2005 self-titled debut album is to this day one of my favorites.
I've never seen them live before & am incredibly excited/terrified I'm over hyping it/probs gonna cry.
Happy Father's Day to my rad Dad. Thank you for raising me on good music.
'Malachite' is from Lydia Ainsworth's EP Right from Real - Pt. I which is out now via Arbutus.
In other news, this video is very cool.
Dude has got all the moves.
"Martin approached me about making “the most boring video for 2014.” At this point in my life, I realized it would be a great thing to do because the Super Cool DJ lifestyle is one associated with being the life of the party and never having a dull moment. The truth is that it’s mostly made up of moments waiting around and hanging out by yourself. The track itself is already about walking through the middle of a crowd feeling alone. So driving around Montreal in a Lamborghini yawning felt like a good way of showing how awesome and equally solitary it can get sometimes."
- Ryan Hemsworth AKA Hemmy AKA DJ after-party naps AKA "he's a nice guy"
I’ve been looking to make the most boring video possible for a while now. I then approached Ryan and he talked to me about his life on tour, being a cool DJ, having fans and being more of a geek then a rock star. We were definitely heading in the same direction, so a week later, without any preparation, we shot the damn thing. It was the most relaxed video set I’ve been on yet, we basically shot what we wanted when we wanted and also played Diddy Kong Racing and Pokemon Snap.
- director Martin C. Pariseau who did a good job
