SON OF A GUN!!!!!!!
by DMack on Nov.22, 2010
There’s finally a video out for Oh Land’s catchy single Son of a Gun. Thanks to some costume and lighting changes, the video is at once scary and pretty.

JJ also has a new video out, for You Know. An acoustic guitar keeps the pace with the drum machine in this smooth one from “No. 3”.
They’re way too young to be fallin’ in love. QUIT IT.
I should also mention that JJ put out a new single for free on the Sincerely Yours website. It’s called Let Them, as in “Let ‘em talk”, the T.I. banger. The B-side, I’m the one / Money on My Mind borrows a beat from The XX for the first half, and lyrics from Weezy on the second half. If it sounds amazing, that’s because it is.

WHEN I’M IN THE CLUB…. !!

Joakim from JJ is awesome. In these live videos from SXSW 2010, he just stands in one spot on the stage and doesn’t do anything but sway back and forth, and occasionally smoke a cigarette.
JJ – Ecstasy (live @ SXSW 2010)
Dude looks like Val Kilmer’s character from HEAT, so he’s forever in my good books based on that alone.
JJ – My Way (live @ SXSW 2010)
Is it not cool to call it SXSW 2010 anymore? Do we have to start call it "South-By" now? I hope not.
DON’T TRIP!!
by DMack on Feb.28, 2010
The video for Let Go, the first single from jj‘s upcoming “no.3″ album, came out this week.
The track was released for free as a digital single on the Sincerely Yours website in January, along with a B-side called My Way. My Way won’t be on the album, but it’s an amazing track. It’s got Lil Wayne’s part from Trina’s song “Don’t Trip”, finally hanging a lampshade on their homage to Lil Weezy. If the material released so far is any indication, jj’s no.3 will be a delightful album.
VEELA BEATS!
It’s always a pleasure to share some local talent. I recently heard about a talented dance music producer called Veela from up in Sidney, BC. Apparently she’s only like 17 years old, which is weird because I didn’t know there was anyone under the age of like 75 in Sidney, hur hur hur. Check out Veela’s poppy-trancey Exposure 3.2.
