Also, our friends from Parade of Flesh have given us a pair of tickets to hand out. Just send an email to weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com

There are plenty of good/great albums that are released within a year’s time, but it is a rare moment when a prefect album is created. Today is the official release date for Beach House’s gorgeous Teen Dream, their first album on Sub Pop, and it is just that. Perfect. Already (and predictably) earning Pitchfork’s nod of BNM, as well as millions of blogger swoons world wide, this piece of magic can now be owned in a unique “collectors edition” type package and all without spending $50+. Teen Dream comes beautifully jacketed as a 2xLP with lyrics/artwork and a DVD containing videos for each track on the album, “Silver Soul” being directed by Legrande herself. Order Here.

And now for the contest:
The 21st of April at the fine Granada Theater in Dallas, our friends at Gorilla vs Bear are presenting Beach House along with Washed Out. I’ve been eagerly waiting to see both and here they are at the same place at the same time. Amazing job on the flyer too, I might add. The awesome dudes at the Granada have given us TWO PAIRS of tickets to hand out for this show. Email us at weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com, leave a comment or any leave indication that you’d like to go and we’ll pick a winner at the end of the week. Tickets can be purchased HERE.

So, the dudes over at Fader have just given me one (out of 500) of their newest edition of their FADER/SoCo 7″ series. Featuring SALEM’s “Babydaddy” with Tanline’s “S.A.W.”, this limited edition piece of vinyl is something you’re gonna want to get your hands on. Besides, the thing isn’t available for purchase so this is a rare opportunity to grab one. Send an email to weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com and I’ll pick a winner by the end of the day. Sneak a listen to the tracks here.

Our fourth episode will, not only, have some great new tracks up (from Beach House, Brilliant Colors, and Total Slacker) but we are also having a contest. Just use these easy to follow steps and we will send you a unique cassette tape of today’s show sans commentary, of course. We are also including a “one-of-a-kind” hand designed sleeve for the cassette. Cool, right? Well, whether you think so or not just email us at weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com with the artist name and title of the very last song in our rotation. First person to do so is the winner! Honestly, it’s not incredibly hard to name but contests are fun and so are mix-tapes so use yr ears. Tune in to Indie-Verse, listen, and get a cool cassette. ALSO! Don’t forget to catch Neko Case tonight at the Granada Theater. Tracklist after the jump.

I’ve only seen Yo Gabba Gabba once–partially because of the intriguing musicians they’ve had–and even though I’ve “outgrown” children’s programming I still found myself humming along with their catchy, and educational, soundtrack. With artist appearances from The Roots, The Shins and Of Montreal it’s good to know that the #1 children’s show is at least exposing decent musicians rather than Hannah Montana or the Jonas Bros. The Yo Gabba Gabba crew will actually be performing live at the Dr. Pepper Arena in Frisco (November 28th) and Filter has given us two pairs of tickets to hand out. Plus, an educational track from Of Montreal on how to brush yr teeth properly. Their soundtrack, Yo Gabba Gabba: Music is Awesome! can be purchased here. E-mail weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com if you’d like to go.

Next Friday at the Granada Theater (9/25), The Horrors will be on stage bringing some love in the form of extremely loud shoegaze tunes. Judging by their pictures, they are very engaging with the crowd. I mean the guy has no trouble singing from the chicken fight position. Expect some other favs of ours, Crocodiles, to set the stage as openers along with the DFW natives, Burning Hotels. Nate the Great from Granada has given us two pairs of tickets to give away to our readers! Send emails to weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com and tell us yr favorite flavor of ice cream to win. If you don’t win, make sure to buy your tickets from the Granada because they are oh-so-cool about not ravaging you with outrageous convenience fees.
