[REMIX] Cruiser – “Don’t Go Alone (Noah Hyde Remix)” + Noah Hyde roundup

i want you, i want you, i want you

♫ Cruiser -Don’t Go Alone (Noah Hyde Remix)

So picture this, I get my hands on a remix of the recently posted (and under-appreciated) Cruiser by some guy Noah Hyde. I scope Noah’s Soundcloud and discover a treasure trove of epic remixes by all-time TBE faves like Cherub, Purity Ring, Two Door Cinema Club, and Youth Lagoon. It’s like the guy has his finger on my pulse!

LETS DO A SUMMER MIXTAPE with [RAC, Adventure Club, Goldroom, Viceroy, DWNTWN, Ghost Beach, Cry Wolf and Lights & Music]

When I first started the blog feature on Lights & Music last month, this mixtape was the first idea that I put into action.  Wikipedia, in-short describes mixtapes as usually reflecting the musical tastes of its compiler, a conceptual mix of songs linked by a theme or mood tailored to the tape’s intended recipient.  Yeah sure, we’ve all made mixtapes before.  But, what happens when you get a bunch of artists and bloggers to make a mixtape with the intended recipient being you? … continue reading

[MP3] Purity Ring – “Fineshrine”

get a little closer let it fold, cut open my sternum and pull my little ribs around you

♫ Purity Ring – Fineshrine

I trading jams with a girl the other day when I asked if she knew Purity Ring she said she didn’t but that it was a horrible name for a band. She insisted it was. Fair enough on never hearing of them but that kind of disparaging talk about these freak-groove masters just didn’t sit well with me. Sure, she … continue reading

[MP3] Purity Ring – Belispeak

♫ Purity Ring – Belispeak

One of a few post that I’ve been meaning to get up for awhile.  Purity Ring seems to blow my mind every time.  They appear (so far) to be everything I could ask for in a band.  I will go as far to say they are on top of my list of up and coming bands to watch out for.  Stay tuned, I certainly will.

Ahhh the wonders of summer.  A time for great tunes, butterflies, unicorns, puppies, summer flings, confetti birthday cakes, cookies and all your favorite things.

Enjoy.
