mp3 Smörgåsbord #15

Written on May 20, 2009 by Andy in Music

mp3 Smörgåsbord #15 No singing at the table during today’s Smörgåsbord. (Was that a rule in anyone else’s house?) For today we have a wistful, meditative Phoenix remix, followed by the only Jens Lekman song I’ve ever really enjoyed, and finished with another remix. Enjoy your meal.

Phoenix – 1901 (Build Remix) (mp3)

Jens Lekman – A Sweet Summer’s Night On Hammer Hill (mp3) from Oh You’re So Silent, Jens

Alaska In Winter – Berlin (Doctor Rosen Remix) (mp3) from the Berlin Remix single

Anatomy of a Blogger B-Sides

Written on May 3, 2009 by Andy in Music

RedBside Anatomy of a Blogger B Sides When we were asked by Ike at Breakthru Radio to be their Blogger of the Week, we were presented with a bit of work to do. We wrote five new posts, recorded our answers to the questions we were sent, and picked 17 songs from their list of cleared music which would make up the actual show.

If you listened to the show, or if you at least saw the playlist, you’ll know that they didn’t play 17 songs. Ever the giving types, we’re going to make it up to you all, and post the lost songs here. The track from The Black Keys wasn’t used in it’s entirety, so you can have that too. Enjoy your Sunday.

Ra Ra Riot – A Manner to Act (mp3) from Ra Ra Riot [EP]

Alaska in Winter – The Homeless and the Hummingbird (mp3) from Dance Party in the Balkans

The Black Keys – Same Old Thing (mp3) from Attack and Release

tym-pan-o-gram (noun)
an examination used to test the condition of the middle ear and mobility of the eardrum, and the conduction bones by creating variations of air pressure in the ear canal.

Basically, it sounded like a cool name for a blog intended to be primarily about music. We’d both had other blogs previously, but over beers it was decided that more damage could be done as a joint venture. And here we are.

We share a passion for the undiscovered and under-appreciated, and hope that you’ll be able to find something you love as well.

About the Author: Dave
I like music. I can't describe how I came to like the music I do, because I don't know how or why, I just do.

Many years ago, Napoleon's brother, my great-great-great-great-great-great Grandfather, came to America. He was asked his name on Ellis Island while being processed as an immigrant. Not understanding English, he was under the impression that he was being asked how he had arrived in the new land. So he turned around and pointed at the sea vessel and said, 'LaBarge.'

I come by my music taste of my own free will. My friends listened to 2Pac, my parents to contemporary Christian and me? Sunny Day Real Estate. I can’t explain it.

“Music, true music, not just rock ’n’ roll, it chooses you. It lives in your car, or alone, listening to your headphones…” - Lester Bangs
