As many of you will know, I saw Steely Dan live a month or two ago. Their touring band is smoking hot - three lovely backing singers, a Grand piano, and a four piece horn section all feature. Their trumpet player is Michael Leonhart. He has been with the Dan since 1996, both in the live band and as their arranger, performer, and conductor on Two Against Nature and it's follow-up Everything Must

Jacksonville FL's DJ NickFRESH is my interwebs friend. I have never met the dude in person, but we have bonded over music via this blog. We like a lot of the same stuff - he has eclectic taste like me. Years ago he asked me to post Doot Doot by Freur, a relatively obscure '80s track. I was happy to oblige and the rest is interwebs friendship history. He makes cool little mini mixes you can listen

The Mary Onettes - DareThe Mary Onettes - PuzzlesIf you are a fan of British alternative pop of the '80s, then Sweden's Mary Onettes will no doubt resonate. I really dug their self titled debut from a couple of years ago - very moody, very New Order-ish. You will hear elements of a lot of the era's other key players - The Cure, The Smiths and Echo & the Bunnymen - in their songs. Their new album

Caribou Vibration Ensemble - Skunks_________PHD holding Canadian mathematician Dan Snaith is Caribou. He began releasing records in 2000 as IDM'er Manitoba until he was legally forced to change his name to Caribou a few years ago. Over the last few albums he has augmented the laptops with an increasing array of organic instruments. I am a big fan. He recently put together the 16-person Caribou

One of my favorite '80s acts is Echo & the Bunnymen. What has proven amazing about the band is how they have managed to keep making records and touring for the last twenty plus years. Even more amazing is the fact that these later year albums don't suck. The last year has seen the band playing it's 1985 classic Ocean Rain at the Royal Albert Hall, with similar shows following shortly after in New

Strut's celebration of Ze Records' rich catalog, Ze 30: Ze Records Story, is a great snapshot of some of the influential label's classic jams - and it's been in heavy rotation @ SIART for the last month or so. I've always loved Ze's mix of rock and funk and disco and soul and post-punk and the truly diverse and cool roster of bands. UK DJ and remix artist Leo Zero sheds light on even more

My new favorite band in the whole world is the Afro-futurist four piece BLK JKS. From Johannesburg and Soweto, South Africa, these guys take the progressive rock blueprint and twist it and turn it until they have made it their own. TV On The Radio is a good reference point, but BLK JKS expand on the sound, adding township blues, avant jazz (with horns supplied by the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble) and

Anyone I work with will tell you how much I love Miike Snow. Their self titled debut album has been in steady rotation in the 5 disc player for some 5 or 6 months now. I am amazed at how much I dig the record. It has sharp hooks and grownup pop smarts - definitely not a teenybopper record. On a related side note tho' - my kids (5 & 9) love it. The label sent a couple of remixes and a video to

Chico Fellini cover the Supertramp classic, and there are two wildly divergent takes on T.Rex - one by Minneapolis' own Idle Hands, the other by the mysteriously ethereal Manet.
