Happy Monday
We’ve been so busy here at Winnie world headquarters that we have fallen waaaaaay behind with our emails. We get so much great stuff sent to us and we really do our best to get through it all.
Alan Wilkis dropped this off for us last week and I just got a chance to check it out. I like it! It’s happy… just like this smiling Shiba Inu puppy.
Yeasayer – Ambling Alp (Alan Wilkis Remix)
the interview show: The Raveonettes!
The Raveonettes make beautiful music, indelibly marked by darkness. They would probably be a much bigger band, if they “sold out” and wrote bubblegum lyrics to match their haunting melodies.
I like to think of them as a long lost soundtrack to a David Lynch project.
The Raveonettes on the interview show This is my chat with Sune Rose Wagner (the guy in the band). I don’t know if the Danes are known for being succinct and frank, but Sune certainly is both.
The Raveonettes “Last Dance” A beautiful song about relationship with a drug addict. See what I mean about an undeniable edge?
The Raveonettes “My Boyfriend’s Back” (The Angels cover) This cover was done for a video game, but Sune and Sharin Foo would much rather make their own stuff.

Sweet Hearts Die Hard
Our Valentines party SWEET HEARTS DIE HARD is fast approaching.
We have some pretty exciting bands playing if I may say so. Check them out’sies:
This song is about the Biltmore!
And if you haven’t already, check out our interview with the Zolas.
We will be playing 50/60’s sock hop all night for you to make out to. Songs like thissss.
Dion & The Belmonts – Teenager In Love
Here’s some kissing tips!!!
Fried Day
Soooo apparently deep fried Coke is like an actual thing. I would try this for sure, but that’s not saying much since I would probably eat my own arm if it were deep fried.
The weekend is back and I’ve got your Friday song! Oh man this is a good one… especially at about the 3 minute mark. Grab a deep fried soft drink and get loose!

Winnie deejay Flowers is playing backroom songs at Shine in Vancouver with Eric Zee this Saturday! There will be candies and music you forgot you loved.
Some disco you must hear… I hesitate to post the full track since music this rad needs to be fully supported so more will be made.
Tensnake – Need Your Lovin (Dub Mix) sample
and a dope proto house track from Ghanna as dug up by Tensnake. Watch the video for dancing instrux.
Babez

Our fave lil Vancouver hero Cameron Reed of Music Waste fame has been blowing up with his Babe Rainbow project. His new “Shaved” EP is out Feb 8/9th on Warp Record (who you might know?).
Also check out some love from the mighty Stereogum who premiered his Doom remix…
MF Doom – Gazzillion Ear (Babe Rainbow Remix)
We could go on but we mainly want to brag that we put on his first live show.
He has been collaborating with the Salazar people who have done little mini films for each of the songs on the ep. Check out the teasers they’re splendid and creepy and just how you like it.

FYTIF
Do you ever find you have these obscure childhood songs buried in your forgotten consciousness?
Rediscovering them can be pure bliss. I mean sometimes they sound dated and nothing like you remember but other times it’s like, fuck yes, let’s go dancing.
The Mints Of Idaho
The Mints Of Idaho are from Germany (I think).
They need a roadie… named Romeo. Oh and he needs to love rodeo.
These girls so crazy.
The Mints Of Idaho – Magic, Man!
