| Wynona's Big Brown Beaver Primus |
Driving indie. Freaky video! From this tumblr post but I think the band was a favorite of my ex Mo. |
|
| Volare Gipsy Kings |
A more authentic feeling version than Dean Martin's... Just randomly started singing it one day... |
|
| News Background A Sammy Burdson |
Sneaky sounding music... a little manufactured but good. Background music in the movie "Logan Lucky" |
|
| Atomic Power The Buchanan Brothers |
Bluegrass with a cornball modern apocalyptic edge... Like I write here, from the Hidden Brain podcast... |
|
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Crazy in Love Sofia Karlberg |
Total How To Make A Blockbuster Movie Trailer energy... Maybe some show had it on? |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Make Way For the King Ohana Bam |
Awesome big horn hip hop. Some show I guess... |
| Mama Doh Like (Bubalups Riddim) Flava |
Some kind of carnival music... I've heard HONK variants "Mama Don't Like" that must have similar roots. Lua in my band mentioned he had a cassette tape of this, youtube was the only place I could find it. |
|
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | The Suburbs (Continued) Arcade Fire |
Such a haunting song. One of the youtube rips. I think Amber was a big fan of these guys. |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Still Alive (From "Portal") The 8-Bit Big Band |
Big Band cover of the brilliant video game song - really captures the sense of menace in it. I think this was on the youtube list, but I was able to find a copy to buy. |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Movin' On Up Mama Digdown's Brass Band |
Cover of the old Sitcom Theme - I had thought it would be a good band song for a long time. A recommendation from the automated music system gnooisc I think I seeded it with Deee-lite, Pomplamoose, Rebirth Brass Band |
| Claw or Friend Robbie Down |
Indie sound. Another recommendation from the music system gnooisc... |
|
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Tennis Ball [Explicit] Hello Peril |
Funny hiphop From the movie "Always Be My Maybe" |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Welcome (Homecoming Live) Beyoncé |
Intro to her Coachella show - loved the giant band version "Do Watcha Wanna" I can't believe this musical goddess going full on HBCU Marching Band flew under my radar! |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Catastrophe Theme Youtube |
Theme to the show Catastrophe... eclectic mix, banjo, yodeling... there's a lot going on here... Another "find or rip" |
| Formation (Homecoming Live) Beyoncé |
More Marching Band cover.... always love "Come on ladies, lets get in formation... come on ladies lets get information..." Adds some slow ponderous weight to the original.. From her Netflix special. |
|
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | No Children The Mountain Goats |
Kind of beautifully cynical and bitter indie song. From this tumblr entry "why would you watch marriage story when instead you can get just speedrun the experience of divorce angst by listening to the mountain goats’ ‘no children’ which is both more dramatic and also under 3 minutes long" |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Sweet Dreams Seven Nation Army Mashup Pomplamoose |
Great mashup - love how it swaps one melody with the other's bassline... JP Honk plays both of these... maybe we need to try this mashup... |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Lilac Wine Nina Simone |
Stunningly haunting... Used during the behind the scenes part of Beyonce's Homecoming |
| No One Lives Forever Oingo Boingo |
New Wave... I like the macabre lyrics a lot more than the sound. This tumblr post. |
|
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | Way Down in the Hole (87) Tom Waits |
Man, Tom Waits. Background music in "Tiger King" |
| ★ ★ ★ ★ | How Naked Are We Gonna Get (Live at Trainstation) The Blow |
Beautiful trainstation cover of their own song... I just love the gentle, tentative sexiness of it. Youtube rip, from way back. |
| The Gunslinger Tommy Guerrero |
Like "News Background A", this seems suspiciously background-music friendly...I still dig it. Background music in "Tiger King" |
We are star mud, just a little wet star dust.(responding to the Bokonist and Babylon 5 quotes on my mortality quotes page)
me in front of my new virtual wallpaper, in a zoom hangout...
