Pitchfork released their Top Rock Records of 2017…. different spin from years past but as the website continues to diversify from their indie rock leaning beginnings into all sort of genres, it’s kinda nice having an easier to digest list.
Top of the Pops for Pitchfork was London guy King Krule and his record The Ooz.
The song they selected to check out off the record is called “Dum Surfer.”

St. Vincent’s “New York.” is a song I look forward to when it comes on Sirius XMU.
The song is chill and so pretty.
Happy Thursday! I’m DJing tonight at Personas in Burnaby. Come hang on the patio tonight. Last day of August.

I’ve always liked Rise Against. The Chicago melodic punks have a new record out on June 9th called Wolves.
Tier 8th album took the band to Nashville to record. “Living in Nashville drove home that we can’t just focus on our differences,” Tim McIlrath says. “If we can stop and talk to each other, face to face, we might realize our common ground. We are all wolves in the same pack, circling at the gates.”

I went out with my boss from Match last night. Jason took me to some weird subterranean suburban bar. Possibly one of the finest dives in the Lower Mainland.
Happy Friday! See you tonight at Match Pub if you’re going out tonight. I DJ after 10PM till last call. Bangerang.

Charley Crockett loves in Austin, Texas and jams out that modern vintage sounding old school R&B.
I was watching this Wired video on a vinyl pressing robot and loved the sound of the record they use off the top.
Quick Shazam, internet search, and here we are.
That’s a cool record. My wife and I sometimes talk about opening up a little bar. My bar will be like how this record sounds.
or maybe it’ll be like Led Zeppelin into a Tesla song. Still working on it.
Go with yourself.

Bastille‘s new single “Blame” fro the record Wild World has racked up the most new spins this week on US alternative radio.

I added Spoon’s “Hot Thoughts” to my Alternative to What? playlist. Coral and I jammed this on the freeway down to Seattle this week. The song came out of relative nowhere on US radio, and is the 9th most active jam climbing.

Bonobo‘s new record, Migration, comes out on January 13th.
He released a music video for the second track called “Break Apart” (featuring Rhye).
This song is so cool.

This one came down the pipe from a singer called Jacob Banks.
The tracks “features new production from the Futuristics and a verse from Boogie.”

And I don’t want to be a super cry baby….I get that people need to eat….but man, my Cloud Nothings tickets arrived for their show at the Biltmore in February. $50 for a pair of tickets to see an indie rock band. Nuts. The service charge was almost as much as buying a third ticket!
How many sleeps till Christmas? Getting close! Can’t wait. I have some Island time in the forecast, so looking forward to a little holiday and catching up with Victoria friends and family.
Go with yourself.
