Broken Social Scene Cover Joy Division’s “Love Will Tear Us Apart”

Lovewilltearusapart BSS cover Joy Division
Please throw this cover of the all to covered classic to the top of this list.

Word on the street is the BSS appears in “The Time Traveler’s Wife ” as the wedding band. Keeping in mind that this union put’s together many things I like BSS, Joy Division and a chick lit book I actually enjoyed. I have to wonder about the use of this all too covered track. Hopefully it will be used well in telling the story. Otherwise it could be in competition with this for the most overused cover in a TV or film

Who the F*ck Is Jay Electronica
You keep hearing his name? Not sure who he is? This Decon Records Artist/Producer is about to blow this shit WAAAYY open. This clip from his trip to Nepal should be enough to intrigue most, (please name one other hip hop artist that traveled to Nepal for anything!) IF NOT here is a link of a mix tape by a fan Santo of all Jay Eletronicas best work to date. Sources at DECON say to expect BIG NOISE from Jay coming up.

Can’t Wait

John Hughes Dies of a Heart Attack at 59 in NYC

06Aug09

As the sun sets on the rest of my youth. I wanted to shine the light on to the music that John Hughes movies championed way back when. John Hughes knew the importance of using contemporary music to help tell a story earlier than most. Way before soundtracks were just a avenue for majors to dump their C-list roster artist. and Way before indie films were the only place quirky singer song writers or accordion players had a forum.Along with his music supervisors David Anderle ( Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles) , Jimmy Iovine, yes that one ( Sixteen Candles ) and whomever and the insight to choose Yello and Dream Academy for Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, John Hughes was clearly ahead of the curve connecting to his audience through music.

Cute Punk Girl Rocks Madison Square Garden with Green Day

30Jul09

This is what I’m talking about. This is the kind of fan engagement that I’m always looking for. The girl in this video who “happened” to know the 10 minute opus that is “Jesus of Suburbia” and gets pulled on stage will remember this forEVER. I get chills just thinking about what her friends must have been thinking when she was up there. And although she held her shit together through the entire song, I imagine she was completely blacked out during the performance.

I hope they gave her that guitar after the show!

Does any one know that girls name?

New Friendly Fires Video “Kiss Of Life”

28Jul09

Percussive synth pop brit band returns with “Kiss Of Life”. Perhaps this time around the band will gain the traction they deserve. Hopefully this video is not an indication that they are being lead down the Paul Simon “world music” path.

Does anybody know when their new material is due out?

Let the Big Brother pay for your music video

07Jul09

In other creative music video production news, England’s The Get Out Clause use London’s CCTV system ( which is clearly robust ) and their version of the patriot act to piece together clip for “Paper”. Production cost? I gotta think it was cheaper than hiring a crew.
