Cut Copy - "Take Me Over"
Cut Copy Official Site
Check out their website for even more fun music. Just a cool, definitely summer vibe from this particular song. It reminds me of summer coming to an end and reflecting back on everything that happened during it. Enjoy!

Make The Girl Dance - "Tchiki Tchiki Tchiki"
Make the Girl Dance Official Site
I came across this video a couple of weeks ago and posted it on my personal Facebook (feel free to friend request me...I LOVE meeting new people and try to have fun stuff going on all the time that people can help me with) without realizing that a LOT of other people enjoyed it just as much as I did.
For me it wasn't so much the song as it was the video. Having grown up around skate-culture in Southern California and spending several years in the seaside town of Santa Cruz further north, this video really got me feeling nostalgic. In Southern California it was the skate-culture. In Santa Cruz there's a very large 'greaser-rockabilly' culture that I really enjoyed during my time there. Just some of the coolest people who cared more about your actions than your words. By posting this, I wanted to share a little, nostalgic taste of the 'coolness' of both of those worlds.
Enjoy!

Nite Jewel - "One Second of Love"

I didn't like this when I originally heard it...but it's really been growing on me the last couple of days and thought I'd share it here. Enjoy, friends!

Dana Buoy - 'So Lucky'
Dana Buoy's Facebook
Recorded out in a bungalow in a lagoon near Thailand...yet another reason to follow your heart and do what you love. While this isn't an amazing track, there's just this dreamy flavor to it that I really enjoyed. I just wish it didn't end so abruptly. Enjoy!

Here's yet another band that I'm sort of enjoying...they've growing on me quite a bit over the last couple of hours of listening!

Catcall - "The World Is Ours"
CatCall's Official Site
Catherine Kelleher of the punk band Kiosk is about to go solo. I've always wondered where she'd end up because you could just tell she had that 'it' factor. Here's the first video off of the upcoming album, The Warmest Place.
If you like the song, here are a couple others that I've enjoyed from Catcall. Enjoy!

Catcall - "Swimming Pool":

The Penelopes - "Sally in the Galaxy"
The Penelopes Official Site
This video and song is a mix of things I like: superheroes, childhood imagination, a twist and when people get what they deserve after they bully someone. Enjoy!

Jane Birkin - Orang Outan
When I started this blog it was meant to be about those long forgotten gems that have all but disappeared from the collective hive mind. Originally this blog was to be geared more toward the novelty section in the back of the record stores of old. What ended up happening is a lot of emails asking me about current bands that I enjoy or bands that I see getting traction and eventually worming their way into our ears.
THIS song by Jane Birkin instantly brought me back to what I was thinking about when I started this blog. It's a perfect example of the stuff I was looking for.
The more I listen to this, the more I enjoy it!
Enjoy!

LeftBoy - Outro
LeftBoy's Outro Official Site
LeftBoy's SoundCloud Profile
LeftBoy (aka Ferdinand Sarnitz) is quietly creeping into the mainstream. Using videogame references and an art-house approach to what sounds like someone who knows what they're doing with a lot of free sound tools, LeftBoy's sound grabbed my attention with the song 'Videogames' not too long ago.
While a lot of people won't like this right away, I suggest giving his stuff a couple listens. I think you'll get hooked like I did on this guy.
I'm going to post a warning for some of you who I know have kids and listen to this blog. Make sure the little ones aren't around for this particular track. You, on the other hand, should probably load 'Outro' into your workout playlist because it's that kind of a track.
Enjoy!
