The Rapture - Get Myself Into It

An oldie but a goodie. Needing some work inspiration.

Rogue Wave - Permalight
This came out yesterday. It's different from previous records. It's faster overall and they use some electronic samples. A solid B so far.

Hot Chip - One Life Stand - Listen!

Finally some new Hot Chip! From hotchip.co.uk - "as events relentlessly continue to unfold inside the confines of Camp Hot Chip, we can reveal some diverting facts and interesting details of our plans for next year. There will be a new album, named 'One Life Stand', set for release on February 1st, to warm the cockles of your soul right in the middle of the bleak mid-winter. We're just completing the finishing touches right now, and we're also gearing up for a return, possibly triumphant, to the live arena, as a UK tour is also in the offing for February."

Broken Social Scene on KCRW Morning Becomes Eclectic

I have no idea how I haven't seen this because Broken Social Scene is one of my favorite bands. Anyways, this happened November 8, 2005 and is 40 mins of somewhat stripped down songs. Amazing.

Listen or watch on kcrw.com.

Here is the new Chromeo video for their Green Label Sound single, "Night By Night." You can download the track for free at GreenLabelSound.com.

Description: "It's a weird game going on between the band and the place where they play. A mesmerizing Eiffel Tower or Trocadero usually steal the show with their size and more or less spectacular tricks, but here's a band no one would expect to find there, competing with all those crowd-pullers."

Part II & Part III

John Lennon and Yoko Ono in front of the Dakota Building, 1980.

29 years ago today this news shocked the world:
 “On the night of 8 December 1980, at around 10:50 pm, Mark David Chapman shot Lennon in the back four times in the entrance of the Dakota apartment building. Earlier that evening, Lennon had autographed a copy of Double Fantasy for Chapman who had been stalking Lennon since October.“
