music video of the day: "Abducted" by Cults

Because Cults played Lee's Palace tonight and it was so cute. 
Because Madeline's voice is just so good live and the recordings don't do it justice.
Because feels are a dangerous thing.

music video of the day: "Ode to Viceroy" by Mac DeMarco

Because smokers are jokers and this one just left the Hoxton in shreds.

music video of the day: "Smile" by Galantis

Because it's better than "Bound 2" and because NSFW Saturday.

music video of the day: "Always On Time" by Ja Rule ft. Ashanti

Classic. 

music video of the day: "Afterlife" by Arcade Fire

a) Because it was directed by the oh so talented Emily Kai Bock who also directed videos for Grimes's "Oblivion" (one of my favs) and the Solange jam "Lovers In The Parking Lot" ! 

b) Because I just got tickets to see them August 30th in Montreal. I'm kind of a huge fan? 

music video of the day: "Queen Of Hearts" by Fucked Up

Because they just played The Garrison and it was sooo goooood. Fucked Up always slay. It makes my heart melt with pride for my city. A list of other awesome things that went down...

  • free beer
  • Odonis Odonis opened 
  • giant S.H.I.T. mosh pit
  • mosh pit security helping up everyone who fell
  • "Toronto is the only city I want to live in, not to get all Drake on you..."- Damian Abraham 

music video of the day: "Lucifer/He Felt Like a Woman" by Hjaltalín

Went to the Iceland Airwaves showcase at the Horseshoe tonight and my want to travel there tripled. If the bands that played tonight are any indication, there's some magical stuff going on up there. Both Hjaltalín and Hermigervill completely hypnotized me. Check out some Vines from the evening below...

music video of the day: "Manic" by Azari & III

The art project known as Azari & III has done its work, run its course, and is, for all intents and purposes, a momentary blip in time, now forever imprinted on the Universe. - Alixander III

And so it is. R.I.P. Azari & III.
Don't think for a second that we'll ever stop dancing to your tracks.

music video of the day: "Lariat" by Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks

Cute. Very cute. Tres cute. 

music video of the day: "Y.A.L.A." by M.I.A.

Because you always live again. 

music video of the day: "The Night Patrols" by Larry Gus

Because he opened for Cut Copy tonight and also happened to be the nicest guy.

music video of the day: “Chloroform” by Phoenix

Because Sofia Coppola directed it and the girl got skill. 

music video of the day: "Time Will Tell" by Blood Orange


That outfit. Those moves. That man. The Kindness influence. All of it. Everything. Yes.

One time I met the magic being that is Devonté Hynes and we talked about comic books.
Incase you couldn't tell from this slick video, the man is very very cool.

Cupid Deluxe is out now and it's pretty great. 

music video of the day: "Worst Behavior" by Drake

Cool video Drake but here's a hot tip: If you want "Worst Behavior" to be Toronto's new anthem maybe don't film the video in Memphis, Tennessee. Just a thought. While your at it let's also cut this down a little. Like... does this need to be 10 min? Perhaps 5 min would suffice. Just some suggestions. Let me know where I can pick up my owl chain. Thanks!

music video of the day: "The Top" by Francis and the Lights

This is just super cool.
