Music: Emil & Friends

Emil & Friends come to us from the great state of Massachusetts. They're an unsigned act that's starting to gain some buzz. They've even done an amazing "rework" of Passion Pit's Sleepy Head, and an actual REMIX of Little Boots New In Town.

Website: Muxtape

A new music social networking site has been born. Muxtape. It works in much the same way that myspace has allowed artists to reach their fans. Pretty much exactly the same. The main difference is the site is by invite only. This is an attempt to weed out the musical riff raff. Right now it has a small but decent roster (Little Boots, Vulture Realty, Girl Talk, Of Montreal) which will continue to grow. The interface is very basic and gives you an overview of a band in minimal form. All the features aren't operating as of yet, but will eventually include playlists and downloads as well.

Overall it seems alright. Or potentially could be alright once it grows. But it all seems a bit cliquey to be honest. Doesn't it?

Music: Little Boots

I was listening to some Little Boots this weekend and realized I probably hadn't blogged about her on here. So I present to you...Little Boots!


She's a British electro pop sensation at the moment. She was actually on Pop Idol when she was 16, but now the hipsters have taken her up as their own. She's even collaborated with Hot Chip. Here's a video of her perfoming her track Meddle in her bedroom. It solidifies how mesmerizing she is.
