xm vs. the ipod
Saturday, January 21st, 2006Man, I never thought I’d say this, but, I’ve been listening to xm satellite radio more than my iPod lately. Particularly xm 52 - Unsigned. I’m a sucker for Canandian Indie music lately–it’s just so good. Here’re my picks from Friday’s daylong work session; oh yeah, if you’re a subscriber, you can listen online, which is good for me ’cause my commute is all of 10 minutes.
+Buck 65 - Wicked and Weird
Banjo in a rap tune. ‘Nuff said.
+Supersystem - The Love Story
Electronica with an Middle-Eastern punk vibe.
+Joydrop - Beautiful
Beautiful and lilting, then, BAM! Kinda like life.
This is from their album Metrasexual, which has about 3 other songs I could have easily posted instead. The singer kinda reminds me of Bif Naked.
+K-OS with Sam Roberts - Dirty Water
Rockin’ and rappin’ with a sweet beat.
