I LISTEN TO EVERYTHING

PLAYLIST: Not Annoying - Vol. 2

 
The other night I went out to a show with my friend Sam. Sam does A&R and we were going to see a new band he signed called Grouplove at the Troubadour. (Great show, great band - but that's a whole other story) He agreed to drive, which meant two things..

1.  I would get to drink 

2.  I would get to check out what hot new music the VP of A&R at Atlantic was listening to in the car (and then tell you)

Ready for what he had on when I got into the car? Drum roll please...

Talk radio. That's right. No music at all- just boring talk radio! I couldn't help but tease him a bit - (I mean come on Sam! What are you 80?*)

But I gotta be honest- I totally get it. The old 'too much of a good thing' strikes again.

As a result of my own recent new music binge... I give you Not Annoying Vol 2. (see player➚ )

A playlist that won't get in your way for the times when you want to listen to music and chew gum at the same time.

New Artist: Oh Land

 

"My goal is to sound like I’m from 2050, but still feel really classic, like the music is an old friend"

Who: Nanna Øland Fabricius aka Oh Land

Genre: Pop/ Electro

My Kinda Girl: Determined to catch the attention of a major label, she made her way to SXSW in 2009 on a tour she booked herself. It worked. She landed a deal with Epic Records.

Born This Way:  Her mom is an opera singer, her dad a church organist her and her sister a clothing designer. “When I was younger, we didn’t think, ‘Let’s play with our Barbie dolls or a board game today.’ We were building our own universes. And nothing’s changed, except now I have an audience beyond my parents.”

Where to you most often listen to music?
I listen to music from the second I wake up, until I go to sleep. I put on music when I'm getting dressed, listen to my ipod on the way to work, then put on music at work and again when I get home... it's my life, I cannot live without it!

Mmm, This mix seems like something I would listen to on a long car ride alone.

I LISTEN TO: Hip-Hop

Hip-Hop Playlist on iTunes

I'm really into Hip-Hop right now.

Not that I'm ever not into Hip-Hop (Jay-Z ranks up there with Radiohead and Nirvana on the amount of tracks in my iTunes collection) but you know.. I go in waves with different kinds of music ...and right now I'm all about Hip-Hop.

Unlike Country music, most of you probably already love Hip-Hop, so I'll skip the 101. If you're not typically that into hip-hop, or not up on what's new -- now would be a good time to catch up.

There are tons of new artists -- Kid Cudi, Charles Hamilton, B.o.B, The Knux, N.A.S.A, Asher Roth, Wale, Melanie Fiona -- making great music and adding their own spin on it, so it's not just the same old same stuff.

I love music that sound fresh and new, and crosses outside the normal parameters of it's genre. For instance when a hip-hop artist samples electronics (like Kanye and Kid Cudi).. or when they perform with electric guitars (like the Knux).

Here's a playlist of my current favorites, some new tracks, plus a few classics.

LISTEN: Some current HIP-HOP obsessions..
Dead and Gone -T.I. feat. Justin Timberlake
Dat New "New"- Kid Cudi
Crack a Bottle - Eminem, Dr. Dre & 50 Cent
Brooklyn Girls -Charles Hamilton
I Love College -Asher Roth
Nike Boots -Wale
Windows Media Player - Charles Hamilton
Day N Nite (Crookers Remix)- Kid Cudi
Young Boy (remix)-Trouble Andrew feat. 77 Klash
Addiction -Kayne West
