Savoir Adore – I Would Die 4 You (Prince cover)
Savoir Adore recently visited Brooklyn Vegan decked out all in white to perform a few songs for one of their BV Studio Sessions. Besides playing two of their own songs they also covered my all-time favorite Prince song, “I Would … Continue reading
Haim – Falling / Don’t Save Me
Despite the fact that I never even knew this video existed until I discovered it yesterday, apparently this isn’t new (YouTube says it came out in February). “Falling” somehow slipped my attention until YouTube started running banner ads suggesting I … Continue reading
Hourglass Sea – Dream Girl
What happens when you enter the dreams of a teenage boy who fell asleep while watching a commercial for a phone sex hotline? Well, more often than not, after a little obligatory PG-13 rated boyhood fantasy imagery ripped straight out … Continue reading

So I’m going through some new videos on my computer, trying to distract myself from the unbearably stifling heat in my apartment by finding some new material for the blog, when I stumble across this rather unassuming music video for … Continue reading
B R A I D E R – NITETECH
I just wanted to take a minute before I went to bed to point out that Braider (or B R A I D E R, as their Bandcamp page would now have it) have released their first EP ‘NITETECH’ today … Continue reading
Lorde – Tennis Court
16-year-old New Zealand native Lorde has a surprise hit this summer with “Royals”, a song that’s taken everyone aback by how quickly it’s jumped from hipster blogs to mainstream radio. “Royals” is a good song, but it’s her second single, … Continue reading
Basement Jaxx – What A Difference Your Love Makes (feat. Sam Brookes)
Basement Jaxx are back with an all new single “What A Difference Your Love Makes” that sounds exactly like everything else they’ve ever put out…although that’s not necessarily a bad thing at all. This video, filmed in Johannesburg, South Africa, … Continue reading
