what we have been listening to...
so every once in a while we buy a cd or one will come in the mail or something, and since we dont officially do record reviews, i figured we could just post some stuff we have been listening to lately. (in hopes that record labels dont stop sending us music) p.s. thanks for sending us music!
Dark Meat - Universal Indians
After the near minute and a half of the unexpected acapella 'intro' Dark Meat's debut album explodes into a near album long jam session. When you hear over 20 musicians coming into a song at once, and somehow pulling it off, it is definitely impressive. The southern/ folk/ stoner rock is indeed perfect for hippies and hipsters alike. Kinda reminds you of an Austin patio jam session at a mid day bbq...all the things i love.
Dark Meat is on tour now:
May 14th :: Houston :: Walter's on Washington
May 15th :: Austin :: The Mohawk
Squincy Jones - Nintendub (mixtape)
I haven't taken this non-tracked masterpiece out of the player for a while now, so i thought it was only fair to include it here. its probably the straight gangsterism and the unsolved mysteries theme, but this mix always makes me want to buy a gat and look over my shoulder at the same time. "it combines three of the raddest things to ever happen to music:Dubstep, 8bit Nintendo Loops and Rap." sqincy explains. this bass heavy mega-mixed is a classic in the making.

Atmosphere - When Life Gives You Lemons, You Paint that shit Gold
Never noticed how long that album name was until i had to write it. this is their sixth and not surprisingly most successful album yet. they definitely utilized every aspect of the net to push it, and it seemed to pay off with the the album topping the billboards at #5. this seems to take atmosphere to another level lyrically and musically. it took me a couple listens to bite, but now im hooked. slug keeps his well recognized style, but instead of an album long story about himself we seem to be looking through the eyes of everyone else. ant took a right turn as well and totally scrapped samples and produced the whole album with live musicians. currently on, what seems to be, a sold out tour. be sure to catch the interview in issue 3 of case.
