pmaCAST #8 The “Gimme That Hot, Hot Love” Episode

pmaCAST #8 The Gimme That Hot, Hot Love Episode mp3

Radiohead opens up this week’s podcast with a double introduction. Three Leaves and a Head’s remix of “Reckoner” is a marvelous set of lulling, dramatic pianos and snaps. It leads in stealthily to In Rainbows‘ crackling and GRAMMY-famous “15 Step.” Regina Spektor follows Radiohead with an early demo of the beautiful “Samson.” This song is easily my favorite song off her album, Begin To Hope. From an established pop elite to a poppy act that has plenty of potential, I proudly play Asteroid Galaxy Tour’s “Around The Bend.”

If you listen closely, you’ll notice that this episode’s title is derived from “Around The Bend.” It’s just a great song. From here on, things get a bit heavier, you’ll notice I continue/close the pmaCAST with a handful of remixes. This podcast couldn’t be possible without RCRD LBL and Notes From A Different Kitchen who so graciously provided us with tracks that were vital to this podcast.

The Bird and The Bee – Don’t Stop the Music (Rihanna Cover)

The Bird and The Bee   Dont Stop the Music (Rihanna Cover)  covers

I haven’t been a fan of The Bird and The Bee long. Maybe I still wouldn’t consider myself a fan, but I am appreciating what I’ve heard so far. But when I heard this cover, I just felt something inside me come alive.

You all know how I get with good covers, and this one certainly gets an A+ in my book. Even if The Bird and The Bee aren’t your thing, make sure to give this cover a listen. Rihanna’s “Don’t Stop the Music” sounds terrific over The Bird and The Bee’s atmospheric, Sia-esque instrumentation. Trust Me.

Catch their upcoming album Ray Guns Are Not Just the Future out Jan 27th. Continue reading →
