So they got together all their favorite Hot Chip, CSS, M.I.A., LeTigre, Sonic Youth, Spank Rock, MSTRKRFT + Ladytron jams, took The Knife to cut + mix with a bit of The Blow + had a damn good time. Too good of a time. So the next day at the Beach House they chilled out to some Cat Power, Feist, Grizzly Bear + Erlend Oye jams while staring at the Stars. Yeah...something like that.ModernGirlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01918060376151226919noreply@blogger.comBlogger71100tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37791491.post-16831709213637976842007-03-25T11:48:00.000-04:002007-03-25T13:46:14.076-04:00Ahh, the sweet smell of...

First official mixtape for IDP, and go figure, it's not a dance mix. However, it is still pretty damn genius, if I say so myself. Great mix of some amazing downtempo, chill tunes by some new artists I dig right now and a few favorites. It's up now on our podomatic siteTracklist:Prefuse 73 ft. Blonde Redhead - We Go Our Own WayDntel ft. Grizzly Bear - To A FaultBjork - Possibly MaybeCocorosie -

pic: 15MB Of FameThere weren’t any snakes present at her show, but the sounds of Miz Haines and The Soft Skeleton could have charmed (depressed, some might say) anyone or anything. This past Tuesday night, I went to see Emily Haines and The Soft Skeleton perform at the Hiro Ballroom (thank you for the seats); The Tall Firs from Brooklyn opened. The Tall Firs were super chill, setting the mood
