Gotta Dance Dirty

Remember the song Better off Alone?  I can still remember playing that song on repeat in highschool along with Sandstorm and The Launch.

I go through phases with Electronic music where one month it becomes a huge focus of mine and then I forget about it and go straight back to my comfort zone of indie/folk/rock and a pop-punk.

I am currently getting back interested into discovering electronic/house and now dub-step music and I think this phase is no longer a phase.  This will now fall into the above listed comfort zone catagories.

* Reggae will still not ever be something I will post about.

I have always loved Tiesto, always.  Then Deadmau5 came along and I opened my heart up for him as well & of course there has always been room for Kaskade,

Then these bands like Crystal Castles, Sleigh Bells, (who by the way have a website that might be more obnoxious then any other website you have been too) & The XX came around and opened my eyes to a whole other side of electronic music that I wasn’t sure would ever exist.   I can’t get enough of these bands.

I recently stumbled upon Gotta Dance Dirty, which is an Electronic focused music blog.  This is site is great and has provided me with a great deal of new music.  I highly recommend stepping out of your comfort zone and joining me on this new journey. 

You will definitely be seeing more postings about my new interest.

Coachella Countdown

Coachella Countdown: 49 days left

Artist of the day : Crystal Castles

This song came out a few months ago and I am still just as obsessed with it.

Crystal Castle’s is definitely not a band for all ears, but this is a CC & Robert Smith of the Cure mix… so hopefully those that are less tolerable will possibly enjoy this song.

Alice Glass just simply fascinates me and I can not wait to finally see this duo live!

Adele

Adele. She sings from the soul. When she sings I get chills.

Her new album, beginning to end is perfect.  It was like she wrote the album for me and my life.  I need to write her a Thank you note for putting my emotions into the perfect songs.  This song in particular, is my favorite off the album and I am sure this can relate to so many people’s lives.

She is beautiful and full of talent.  Anyone who has a chance to see her live at the Palladium on June 9th is extremely lucky.

Check out Jenny – O.  Loving her right now.

I just can not get enough of this video.  Hilarious.  Love how she mocks other videos.

The video makes me think of Now and Then.  Great film.

Artist of the day – Eliza Doolittle

Thank you once again itunes free download for giving me Eliza Doolittle. She is so full of color, life and talent!

I found this video on her site.  I am a HUGE fan of artists covering hit singles acoustically.  Possibly one of my favorites things done in music. And I just love this song.

Oh Land

A good friend of mine is also a music lover/discoverer and was shocked when I hadn’t heard of Oh Land.

I swear the second I finally did check her out she is appearing everywhere from blogs to tv shows.  Such a unique piece of magic.

Here is  Oh Land covering one of my favorite Fleet Foxes song.
