blue moon [big star cover]

Havent been able to get this song out of my head since GvB posted it earlier. Let it be known that the artist is not the ginger in the video, but a man who has a new 7-inch out on Sincerely Yours, the people who launched jj.

[video] jj//assorted clips

Reeal late last night, Acephale spread the word that Sincerely Yours mysterios, jj, have just put out a beautiful new video consisting of three different clips. First, having fun with fire in “Things Will Never Be the Same Again” which, then, segues into an after soccer practice dip w/ “Intermezzo”. Lastly, a candid shot of the duo on a window ledge strumming through an acoustic version of “My Love”. The dude must have gotten busted because the shot gets cut off at the end. Is that you sneaking around in the bushes, Ray Conception? Of course, that’s just a hunch. However, a small amount of light is shed on to who the duo might actually be. Ironically, the video ends abruptly/mysteriously and I’ve still got a question mark over my head.

weekly mixtape//hold yr breath

oldmanpool copy

There’s something about plunging into a crisp swimming pool that makes me feel completely isolated from the masses in my surroundings. The images in my chlorine filled eyes are familiar yet not completely defined, a mash up of chatter (which I’m, most likely, not interested in) is almost completely filtered out through the water, and I’m completely floating in a medium where the normal rules of gravity don’t apply. More themed than most of my mixtapes, these tracks (which also happen to be new/ish) are nearly as muffled as the bros in the pool crowd. And Robin, I gots that jj for ya.

FINALLY: No, this isn’t the podcast, yet, but I’ve included a link to download this weeks mixtape in its entirety. Enjoy!
