I Call I Want You Back
Filed Under Music Mix Up | 5 Comments
I am really tired, the heat has been unbearable. A little overwhelmed from the last 2 days. Just need music.
The debut album from Local Natives has a few great songs, Airplanes, Wide Eyes and Cubism Dream are probably my favorites from the album.

That There’s A Way Out

Something familiar, something I love.
First song that shuffled on tonight was Radiohead, Go Slowly. This is just what I needed, to be taken away into a dream.

No More Can I Say

This song and specifically this live version shuffled on tonight while on my way home. There was no traffic because I was at work late and the sun was setting and the sky was a beautiful pink and orange hue. I turned it up… Perfection.

A National Treat
Filed Under Music Mix Up | Leave a Comment
This is a yummy treat. Some live songs played for The Current radio station in Minnesota. The National share a beautiful unreleased piano ballad that makes me melt onto the floor, You Were A Kindness… Also includes some other songs from the new album, High Violet.
That is all I have right now, just wanted to share this awesome treat I came across today. More tomorrow! Enjoy!

July 18th @ The Hollywood Bowl
Filed Under Music Mix Up | 1 Comment
Went to see a little world music singer-songwriter concert at the Hollywood Bowl put on by the wonderful public radio station KCRW on my birthday this past Sunday and it really exceeded my expectations… Which is saying a lot because I was pretty excited.
The Breakdown:
The Bird and The Bee were the first act to hit the stage. A folk duo infused with electro synth pop consisting of Inara George (The Bird) and Greg Kurstin (The Bee) along with some other awesome band members who really bring the whole sound together. I have heard their music many a time before especially when their self titled debut album was released in 2007… However, for some reason I just couldn’t get into them. Guess I needed to see them live, I fell head over heals in love with them. They lit up the stage and I didn’t want them to stop. If you live in the LA area I highly recommend checking them out as soon as possible.
mp3:Â Make Love
Ray Guns are not Just the Future 2009 (Blue Note Records)
She & Him were up next. The popular indie folk Amricana duo composed of the actress Zooey Deschanel and the singer-songwriter/guitarist M.Ward. Really not the biggest fan of M.Ward’s solo work, never have been… But man, he can roar on the guitar, any guitar. He basically makes the guitar his bitch. The two of them together are really quite awesome and although I have not posted too much of them here at Untitled Records I do love the pair… Their new album She & Him – Volume 2 was released this year. They also put on a really great show that you are bound to stand up and dance to.

She & Him – Volume 2 2010 (Merge Records)
The Swell Season was the headlining band and the star of the show, boy did they shine bright. Their first ever live performance at such a large venue aside from the Oscars and they were amazing. The passion and emotion that Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová put into their music is breath taking, awe inspiring and beautiful. Their music gives me chills and it is just that much better when you see and hear them live. Their album Strict Joy was released last year and I highly recommend it especially the deluxe live version.
mp3: Drown Out (Live)

In short it was one of the best shows I have been to in a long time and it really made my birthday magical. No Music = No Life.

Somewhere Other Than Here
Filed Under Music Mix Up | 3 Comments
It was a rather rough day today… Mondays always seem to suck.
Puma thought it was play time at 4:30am in the morning and then just as I was falling back to sleep she woke me up again. She is so lucky she is cute.
Then I had an early morning doctor appointment, never a good time.
And of course a full day of work, ewww. This is going to be a very long week I think…
So tonight something a little ethereal to take us away to somewhere other than sleepless nights and yucky doctor offices. Cheers! xx

Read wonderful news today… New Radiohead coming late this year… Yes please! They say it is something totally different but I trust that is nothing but good news. I am excited but trying not to think it over too much as I don’t want to jinx anything.
In honor of this excellent news here is an acoustic version from a recoding based in Los Angeles in 1994. I don’t know which I love more, the original full version or this acoustic treat… It is a tough one.
