electric feel me up

hey!

so this is way over due... and i don't have too much time to go into er'rything, but i think its important to get it out there more than the delay for good measure:

MGMT: Electric feel. this is the song of last weekend when i went skiing in tahoe. i had been hearing it since summer, but it finally clicked in to be awesome this weekend. other notables on the album: Kids and The Youth.

Bon Iver: I had mentioned him before... he's made the cut. like jose gonzales, with a bit of drums. still super good.

Johann Johannson: AWESOME. Icelandic goodness at its best... kinda sigor ros-ish, but different, but awesome. ohh... that just made me think of the baby killer in belgium. but its not like that at all... JJ is pure happy happy goodness robot fun, with less electronica than sigur ros (which if you don't know of, is super awesome, good study music/sleep music... and they created their own language which all the songs are in... icelandic intonations, but entirely elvish in that way!)

Marlena Shaw: kick back from like the 60's or 70's. power voice... good muzak.

speaking of muzak, there is the vitamin string quartet that does popular music via cello and viola and 2 others... good times with the kickbacks!

just started listening to a band called "Why?" but not sure they're going to make the cut.

sorry i didn't write sooner or include vids or awesome pics...

respect.
