Shut Up & Play The Hits - Trailer

LCD Soundsystem's final MSG show and the 24 hours leading up to it was made into a documentary. It will be good.

Art of Flight - Soundtrack List

Since The Art of Flight premiered a couple of weeks ago, the snowboarding world has been reeling. And if you're like me, after seeing it, you immediately wanted to get your hands on the soundtrack. Much like it's predecessor That's It, That's All, the soundtrack is top shelf. So, with a little help from Red Bull I present you a pretty comprehensive sound track listing.

 

M83 - Intro (feat. Zola Jesus) (2011)

 

Here’s a list of the rest of the songs:
Defrag: “Element L”
M83: “Outro”
Hendrickson/Dick/Harry: “Before the Storm”
Oswin Mackintosh: “Passion Victim”
Klaus Badelt: “Nowhere to Run”
Mel Wesson: “Motional Rescue_Pulse”
Mel Wesson: “Stark Light”
M83: “My Tears Are Becoming A Sea”

Quicksilver Pro Cancels Free Music (surf still on)

Irene is just the worst. Not only did she show up and fail to deliver on the epic scale she was predicted to. She leaves the party early after a sub par performance and she decides that she will mess things up JUST ENOUGH to ruin what's left of every one else's night. In this case, I mean to say that the music portion of the Quicksilver Pro New York has been cancelled according to this press release And that is a damn shame because they had put together a pretty ridiculous line-up.

See This Film: Cancer to Capricorn: The Path of the Modern Gypsy

So, I checked out this surf flick a couple of weeks ago. It's a solid film. Really, good surf footage and an even better soundtrack. And since we here at the most definitely like our 4 readers. We're going to hook you up with a free download of the movie. Definitely worth a look, even if you're not a big surfing fan. It's more of a travel film than a surf documentary. Just check it out. It's summer, and you ain't got shit to do. I'm trying to find the soundtrack listing. So, check back for an update.

Cancer to Capricorn: The Path of the Modern Gypsy

welcome

i spend far too much time listening to good music not to share it with the world. a friend's father once said to me "life's to short to drink shitty booze". and that's when it hit me, that comment meant so much more than it seems on the surface. life's too short for shitty anything. so let's listen to some good music, look at some cool shit, and talk about some cool things. grab a hold of something, it's gonna get weird.
