February 5, 2013

The past month or so has seen a new year, and enough new dynamics that I'm still processing. That hasn't left a ton of time for music, although I did enjoy the new releases from Green Day and Muse last fall.

The following are thanks to NPR's All Songs Considered and some of the end of year round up shows they produced. I love it when I find a song that seems new, I note it down, and realize that I already listed it months and months ago. Then I take it off... no repeats. The search for good music never ends.

Same Love - Macklemore & Ryan Lewis
Tesselate - Alt-J
Offspring are Blank - Dirty Projectors
Elephant - Tame Impala
Simple Song - The Shins
Take a walk - Passion Pit
Small Town Moon - Regina Spektor
The Carpenter - The Avett Brothers
Some Nights - Fun.
Hot Knife - Fiona Apple
Angels - The XX


More to come ...
