Lost But Found

Montreal b&w

I feel embarrassed that I’ve completely ignored this song for years. Things just get lost in the shuffle.

It reaches out and pulls you in every time. Amazing.

Be My Valentine

We are throwing a Valentines party in Vancouver, Saturday, February 14th.

Its going to be radder than super sours. Think high school dance but with sloppier make outs. We’re bringing our pals, Type To Talk who played at Blastramp with us as well as the one man show, Keytar Warrior from Victoria.

As well as having ridiculously cheap cover, the drink prices are pretty damn friendly… $3.25 Pints / $4 shots and Highballs / $11 pitchers.

Ticket available at door!  Hit up the facebook event page for more info….

The Flirts – So Many Men, So Little Time

ESG – Erase You

These are from quite poss the best blog on the internet, ARAWA

Bagarre – Dirty Love

Babaluga – My Paradise (extended)

Toronto’s Best Kept Secret?

Don Cash hails from Toronto. In 2006 he released his first album, “On The Bus” which caught the attention of Berlin label boss, producer/dj, Headman who signed him to his indie label, Relish.

His music combines everything from 80’s disco to freestyle to hip hop, new wave, punk and early house and repackages it in a futuristic, forward thinking package. There are a lot of influences at work that clash together harmoniously. It reminds me of Prince, Lou Reed, Green Velvet, Bowie, Joy Division, The Sex Pistols and Grandmaster Flash all at once.

His thoroughly enjoyable album, “Freshy Fresh” is coming out January 12th and will be available through itunes and amazon… BUT if you want it right now it will be available right here for free download for the next two weeks.

Don Cash – Take It To The Top

Don Cash – Glam Banger

Life by the sea.

party

Once every couple of month I stop by Bobby Baby’s page to see if she’s uploaded anything new. She’s moving in a new-ish direction right now on the folk-esque tip, but her ‘05-’07 work is where it’s at.

Bobby Baby – Bobby (Ruperts High Voltage Disco Remix)

and here’s a track off the must buy singles compilation from The Names. Amazon has it here.

Names – Life By The Sea
