Goodie Bag 11/6
Gah! I know I'm a day late. To make up for it, I'm giving you an extra special edition of the Goodie Bag with SIX SONGS!
Girl Talk - Hold Up - Gregg Gillis. Biomedical engineer worker-dude by day - mash up master by night. (Okay, it's more like weekends.) Gillis released Night Tripper, probably one of the most breathtaking records of the year - and may have incurred some serious legal trouble in the process. Why? The dude samples 15-20 songs in the course of one 3 minute song. Yikes. My favorite part of this particular track? 2:29 in. I bet you can guess why.
John Legend - Show Me - Jeff Buckley is alive and in the form of an African-American man.
The Rapture - Whoo! Alright-Yeah...Uh-Huh - The Rapture absolutely bored the fuck out of me with their first record when I first heard it. (I've since gone back and am starting to dig it.) Their newest, Pieces of the People We Love, makes me want to boogie. Here's one of the ten reasons why.
Led Zeppelin - Fool In The Rain - There's something really satisfying about finding a great song in an old band's catalog that you haven't heard over and over a million times. (I actually owe this find to one of my friends. So, thanks.
Cassius - See Me Now - I don't know much about this band other than Pharrell guests on one of their tracks. The album, 15 Again is great to chill out to though. This song blows me away.
Cold War Kids - Hospital Bed - I posted "We Used to Vacation" a couple weeks back, and for good reason. This band is fucking awesome. Their debut, Robbers & Cowards didn't completely stick the first time around. But after a few more spins, I got hooked. There's some seriously vampy piano shit on this album. Get this record if you don't own it...and for the last time, NO, they aren't an emo band.

Cassius rocks hardcore, you need to listen to the sound of violence
