I'll Party By Myself Because I'm Such A Special Guy

Posted Tuesday June 3, 2008, 2:39 am, Over one day old

( Click here to buy it from Amazon.) The Cool Kids "What It Is" - The Cool Kids are undeniably retro, but unlike a majority of artists who lean hard on the sound of 80s hip hop, they are neither aggravating or boring. ( Click here to buy it from Amazon.)

The Taste Of Life

Posted Thursday May 29, 2008, 4:12 am, Over one day old

Portishead "We Carry On" - Just about two weeks ago, a few minutes into the daily morning meeting at work, I found out that I, along with all of my co-workers, was about to be out of a job. I had to stick around and stew in a silent panic for a few more hours, but sometime around 2 PM, I went home.

We've Got A Secret Between Us

They End Up In Blood

Erykah Badu "Twinkle" - Much of Erykah Badu's latest album lingers in a shell-shocked haze; claustrophobic and uncomfortable, yet zoned-out and inert. ( Click here to buy it from Amazon.) ( Click here to get the entire Ghostly Swim compilation from Ghostly International.)

Swallow A Drop Of Freezing Sweat

Scaling Love's Great Heights

Alphabeat "What Is Happening?" - There was a perfect moment for this song in this week's season finale of Gossip Girl. This song was built for such a moment, whether it's in fiction, in life, or somewhere in between.

How Can You Mend A Broken Heart

Rostam Batmanglij "Campus" - I'm not an expert, but it would seem that this string-centric version of "Campus" credited to Vampire Weekend's Rostam Batmanglij predates the arrangement that appears on that group's celebrated debut album. ( Click here to buy it from Diet Cola.)
