I expected this to be a really dumb band the first time I heard of them.

But she has this AMAZING voice...

And if you listen to this song while driving at night, windows down...it makes you feel so...I dunno...I guess in love with the world.

It's my favorite driving at night song. LoL

I love the neuvo-swing movement and wish it had lasted longer. Squirrel Nut Zippers, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (who I've seen live....mucho fun-o), Brian Setzer Orchestra, and so on and so forth.... I was born in the wrong era.

I <heart> Kimya Dawson. This is my favorite of her songs.

Franchise: April 30, 2008 - 10:03 PM PST I'm pretty sure not many people have heard of this band...

Squirrel Nut Zippers

Franchise: April 30, 2008 - 09:58 PM PST Does anyone appreciate how bad ass the sound of Cake is besides me?

Loose Lips - Kimya Dawson

The_Catalyst: March 13, 2008 - 08:52 AM PST I liked it and it fits in this thread well

The_Catalyst: March 13, 2008 - 08:48 AM PST

Also see Rahzel - the godfather of noise.

Holy Crap that was amazing. Thanks.

AtimeArhyme: March 10, 2008 - 03:30 PM PST

theyre like indie-rock. they broke up a while ago. im pretty sure the lead singer is an english teacher or something now.

dex2988: March 10, 2008 - 03:24 PM PST hey, does anyone have a vid from Jets to Brazil? I keep hearing about them here on qL and how they shouldn't have broken up or something. What kind of music do they do?

AtimeArhyme: March 10, 2008 - 03:22 PM PST That should have been out of Catalysts box, naturally

It took a guy in Scotland to hip me to this one. All hail the Internets!

Maesyn: March 07, 2008 - 04:55 AM PST Let me try this again, hmmm...

Here's a video I just finished editing for my song, Walk You.

Maesyn: March 07, 2008 - 04:53 AM PST Aloha, I loved these videos you shared.

Wanted to share one of my own that i just finished editing. It's for a song called Walk You by Maesyn (me - sometimes, generally speaking) <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/R-bR2o4yyds&rel=1&border=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/R-bR2o4yyds&rel=1&border=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent"width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

cisco: March 06, 2008 - 03:59 AM PST 2*Sweet They're amazing live and on myspace. Plus, they're some REALLY awesome guys.

The Knockout Kings are also pretty cool, the first time I'd heard of them was at a show. I have about two pictures of the lead singer in my portfolio, they were really energetic and have a cool show.

Paramore If you haven't heard of Paramore by no, you need to get out from under your rock. This band is really talented, and Hayley has an AMAZING voice. They started recording when they were about 14/15, which is part of the reason why I respect them as musicians and as artists so much.

The_Catalyst: February 24, 2008 - 07:29 AM PST

Agreed.

The_Catalyst: February 24, 2008 - 07:28 AM PST

Nice sound these guys have thanks for sharing

The_Catalyst: February 24, 2008 - 07:26 AM PST shit I forgot to out the video in



Whatever by the bastard fairies

The_Catalyst: February 24, 2008 - 07:26 AM PST I posted this in the other music forum, but i think it fits this one better.

dex2988: February 23, 2008 - 05:36 PM PST

Chaikin started lots of controversy in the vocal music community back in the early 90's because he was kit drum imitative. Most everyone at the time (Bobby McFerrin, Jeff Thacher of Rockapella, etc) was organic and they felt he wasn't being true to the art form. Now everyone wants to be imitative. He is the best...light years ahead of anything I can do drum-wise.

MattFuller: February 23, 2008 - 05:33 PM PST Woah... Kid Beyond. That first example he does not only sounds like a drummer, he sounds like a good drummer. Holy crap. That's it, I'm sold, dex.

dex2988: February 23, 2008 - 05:18 PM PST Andrew Chaikin is Kid Beyond, and I've been a fan of his for ten years now. He is widely considered the father of modern vocal drumming. Aside from doing several voiceover jobs for commercials and video games, he performs live with the help of some equipment. This video goes into what he does to perform live.



Unbelievable.

IrisFromOhio: February 23, 2008 - 05:11 PM PST I would like for some of you to check out one of my favorites,Digby. I have forgotten, on SEVERAL occasions to mention them, but I really like them and they aren't afraid of the term "pop" to describe their music. That in and of itself says something to me.
