Entourage 11/16/08
This season of Entourage is undeniably great. They have shied away from relying on sex and drugs to drive the story and have been churning out fantastic episode after fantastic episode. Equal to the quality of the stories has been the music in the show. The music supervisors on Entourage have include tracks by A [...]

Guilty Music Monday #38
I have a sort of weird GMM for you all this week, so embrace it as you wish. I’ve never heard the full version of this song, but from what I’ve heard it features everything that qualifies as guilty. Estelle- American Boy (Feat. Kanye West) I’m shocked that this song hasn’t been on GMM before, so in honor [...]

Remix Party!!!
I’m generally against remixes because they normally end up being boring and unoriginal. But sometimes a remix comes along that really does its job, which is to give you a different interpretation of the original song. I’d just like to share a few remixes that have accomplished this ideal, and are relatively new to the [...]

Concert Review: Lupe Fiasco At Club Nokia
Only a couple of nights after Beck opened the brand new Club Nokia in downtown Los Angeles, Lupe Fiasco graced our mortal souls for a spectacular, sold out show. This was my fifth time seeing Lupe (so my expectations weren’t too high on seeing something new and spectacular), but something was different about this show. [...]

Concert Review: Beck At Club Nokia
This weekend, Beck christened downtowns newest venue-Club Nokia, with a two night engagement. The theater is located in the center of the skyscrapers and neon lights that make up the LA Live complex, directly across from Staples Center. The venue is very different from most because it is not its own building as its is [...]

Pete & J
Pete and J are a marvelous up and coming singer songwriting duo, drawing comparisons to Wilco, Dr. Dog, and Spoon. Their sound switches between songs revolving around the acoustic guitar, and another couple of songs that have a more edgy, harder rocking feel. One thing is for sure though, Pete and J make infectious songs [...]

Marnie Stern
Marnie Stern is super awesome. She’s a progressive, indie answer to all the mainstream pop music that’s currently reaching the top of the charts. She makes these incredibly weird, complex instrumental parts but melodies and vocals that are dying to be on the radio. She’s also re-created one of the best covers of 2008, with [...]
