pmaCAST #20: There’s Something Living In These Lines

pmaCAST #20: Theres Something Living In These Lines musicI watched Gigantic for the first time tonight. It was an odd movie, for sure, but I was delighted to see the movie’s last few seconds scored by Animal Collective’s “Did You See The Words?”

It was the perfect odd-ball song to close an odd-ball film. What was better yet was the music binge I went on right after the credits closed. These songs are what make up this twentieth episode of the pmaCAST. Hopefully you’ll find the track list fitting of this milestone episode.

DAN’S DANCE PARTY

DANS DANCE PARTY listenThe first time is the hardest, or so they say.  While this might not apply to activities you can do while shitfaced drunk (sex, riding a bike, driving, delivering a baby), it DEFINITELY applies to writing for an awesome, successful blog.  My name is Dan, and I’ve been word-masturbating (writing a blog with 5 readers) for a while, but now I’m about to have word-sex with all of you, and I’m a little nervous.  I’m here to let you know that breaking it down is the SHIT, and to bring you the newest developments and most awesome artists in the “breaking it down” umbrella of musical genres.  So!  Once a week,  you’ll get to read my fucking AWESOME words, in one of 3, that’s right 3, fan-tas-tic formats: Continue reading →

What’s Going On?

In NYC:  The best bet of the week may just be tonight’s Frightened Rabbit acoustic, all-request show at le Poisson Rouge. Otherwise, Lykke Li is playing tonight (Webster Hall) and Tuesday (Music Hall of Williamsburg- which will from now on be abbreviated as MHoW). Up-and-comers Passion Pit are playing the Bowery on Wednesday night, while Beirut, promoting their new, promising double-album, will be playing the MHoW. But don’t worry if you miss Zach Condon and friends there, they’ll be at the BAM Opera House on Friday night.

But Beirut is far from your only Friday night option. Little Boots will be bopping heads at Studio B, and The Black Keys will rock out Terminal 5- although probably not as heavily as The Boss rocked it in his halftime show rehersal (speaking of which, if you haven’t bought your Bruce tickets yet, they’re probably all gone. But have no fear- more shows will likely be announced very soon). The Black Keys will be at the Terminal again on Saturday.

And don’t worry about missing Beirut for either Boots or the Keys on Friday either, because they’ll be playing the BAM again on Saturday. A busy week for them.

In LA: If you’re feeling left out of the Beirut party in Los Angeles, don’t worry- Continue reading →
