Neat. I grabbed some old boxes form David Eleanor’s basement. Sitting on the top of one was a couple burned CDs of old Morning After Show audio bits. Driving around I popped the CDs in. One just had an old commercial I made for a Smut Peddling Sam show at the Cobalt. The other had [...]

Mixtape >> Lord I Got High
Posted in music, playlist on February 28, 2011 | 2 Comments »

Got me thinking [...]

I want to be the Johnny Appleseed of the Sleigh Bells. The song “Rill Rill” is a current favourite of sexual energy. Not even sexual… more like first date, holding-hands and watching Titanic on the couch energy. If I made a makeout jams playlist. Side one, track one is Sleigh Bells “Rill Rill.” When she [...]

My current it band that I am in love with right now is Local Natives. Their album Gorilla Manor is what I jam out tons at home with “Airplanes” being the apex song for me. I went over to see if Pitchfork had anything interesting playlisted and it turns out they have a couple neat [...]

While driving around the deserts of Nevada, the HIGH desert, where it is fucking cold as fuck. Fuck. We saw lots of a gas stations that we fondly called Dinosaur Gas. We started looking for them and only filling up there. When we’d roll through some town that had a population far lower than its [...]

I hate the words “soft rock.” Its like, if you identify with that kind of music, I don’t want to be your friend. It reminds me of being 19 or 20 years old and working at QMFM in Vancouver and not getting it. People want to hear Luba, “Let It Go?” Turns out they do [...]
