Savoir Adore - We Talk Like Machines (MP3)

Savoir Adore
If you're a fan of Broken Social Scene or Los Campesinos!, you owe it to yourself to check out Savoir Adore. With labelmates MGMT, they're yet another Brooklyn band hoping to energize the scene. "We Talk Like Machines" sounds like a more melodic and shoegazy/dream pop version of Broken Social Scene's "Looks Just Like The Sun".

The other three of their newly mastered tracks are available for free to download on Cantora Records.

Natasha Bedingfield vs. Chicane - Bruised Water (MP3)

~~Natasha Bedingfield vs. Chicane - Bruised Water~~ (MP3 removed by request)
Pop (Natasha Bedingfield's "I Bruise Easily") meets classic Balearic house (Chicane's "Saltwater"). Easily the best mash-up of the year. Promo just released in the UK on Modena, Chicane's new independent label.

Empire: Top 50 Greatest TV Shows Of All Time
Worst...top 50 list...ever.
My Top 20 in no particular order would be: Arrested Development, Twin Peaks, Futurama, Law and Order (not on their f*ckin' list!), The Simpsons, Scrubs, Star Trek: The Next Generation, Seinfeld, The Sopranos, Chappelle's Show, Sex and the City, The Office, The Wire, 24, South Park, The Daily Show, The Colbert Report, The Cosby Show (also not on their list!), The X-Files, and Cheers (also not on their list!). Other glaring omissions: I Love Lucy, M*A*S*H, All in the Family, The Tonight Show, Sesame Street, Hill Street Blues, game shows...
Alibi Tom - Fire
Alibi Tom are yet another catchy Swedish pop band. They sound a bit like Interpol meets Peter Bjorn and John and Spoon, which isn't a bad thing.
