Gabriela’s 2015 Funkouement

Gaby — Sun, 13 Dec 2015 21:23:07 +0000

I remember the precise moment I sold my soul to the music devil; South by Southwest, ATX. The very own Most Definitely’s Stoli infused afternoon at The Yard. Before that my unexposed dreams twinkled in classical piano, A Capella’d harmonies, and celestial music festivals. Needless to say, this year had me hooked. My fellow writers and cousins have inspired my search for musical talent. Oh, and I finally got that electric guitar, oww. I bid you adieu Beelzebub’s year. A brief confessional precedes my list; in the words of our most mystical Calypso, “My intentions are honest ones, and my heart is not made of iron…”

Maybe I should blame my fiery zodiac, or just admit… Sharing this list exposes the soundtrack of my year thus far, a personal and utterly biased list. I can’t speak for you, but, if you take a gander you might just find yourself learning moves you’d never dreamed feasible (or flexible enough for). Two quick confessions and then we’ll commence musically, I promise. As a small town high school English teacher, the music industry is comparable to Dante’s second ring of hell, a daunting fiery pit of passion, authenticity, and soul; a niche I am gingerly stepping into through wonderful role models and musical talents. Finally, my draw to the music is through my synesthesthetic (new word?) viewpoint. I see the notes morph through spools of color across my lids, they roll, bubble, pour, through my veins. It’s a direct reaction to the art and dedication of the artists. Alas, enjoy. Make space to dance, lay, and free your body from our daily mundanities.

Here’s a Soundcloud version of the playlist, with a few added bonuses not found on Spotify:

Cheers, 2015.

We don’t have to blog every time St. Lucia releases a song, but we do because they’re so freakin’ awesome!!! Too Close is no exception to that rule, it’s a serious tune. Add it to your playlists, TPS reports and college essays, it’s so good that it makes everything better. I can’t wait for their new album to drop on October 8th., it’s going to be a doozy.

HAERTS – All The Days

Tim — Thu, 23 May 2013 21:41:11 +0000

This is the best surprise I could have hoped for today. We have been having a very lopsided love affair with Brooklyn-based Haerts ever since we heard their first single, ‘Wings’ last year. The love affair continued when we got to see them live – again and again and again. When seeing them live, I always wanted to know what song THIS was, because it’s nothing short of amazing. The drums will burn into your brain and the vocals will haunt you for days. I love this song, and I’m so happy I can play it on loop for the rest of the summer.

Less than a week after absolutely slaying Santos party house in support of Ghost Beach last thurs, Magic Man annouces huge news…they’ve signed with with Neon Gold Records/Columbia Records.

Haerts – Wings (Wildcat Wildcat Remix)

Max — Thu, 28 Mar 2013 19:28:40 +0000

What’s that line from Pineapple Express? “Got two TV’s aaand Radio…thats pretty rad.” Well Haerts, St. Lucia aaand Wildcat Wildcat…thats pretty rad too. This remix is extremely sexy. Own it on vinyl from Neon Gold.

Allegedly Jean from St. Lucia has been in the studio most of the year producing Haerts’ debut album which is due out soon, so keep an eye out. I’m very psyched for it.
