pill wonder//jungle/surf

pdubz

Easily one of the “Most Rad Cassette Release of 2k9″, Pill Wonder’s Jungle/Surf was released cassette-style via the (great) Wild Animal Kingdom.  Now, thanks to Underwater Peoples, yr analog PW collection can be completed as they are releasing this gem on 12″ vinyl (only UP’s 2nd LP release).  Rather than tell you how “jungle-y” or “surf-y” this sounds, I’ll leave things to cleverly crafty wordsmith Sawyer Carter Jacobs…. (Pre-Order)

wtd blog radio// indie-verse

winterreview

It’s been a while since I’ve lost sleep in anticipation of Christmas Day goodies.  As a kid, thoughts of the Transformers Dinobots and Legos were usually the culprit.  This year:  The Underwater Peoples Winter Review.  Seriously, I ran to the computer and downloaded this before I even took a glimpse at any wrapped boxes.  After some quality headphone time, we would like to share this awesome compilation over airwaves (um, internet airwaves) from cover to cover.  Since our episodes are 16 tracks long (the comp being only 15), we thought it fitting to lead off with MJ’s “Human Nature”.  Head to Indie-Verse for the broadcast and, when you’re done, download the entire thing free (for a limited time) at Chocolate Bobka’s.

While I’m on things Wild Animal Kingdom, Dana has also sent over some new tracks from the upcoming Pill Wonder Jungle/Surf tape.  Not only will this see release on WAK, but Underwater Peoples will be releasing this on 12″.  These tracks are so humid, your living room will turn into a sauna.  In about ten seconds.  If you haven’t heard PW’s other jams, dude at Friendship Bracelet has what you need.  The cassette pre-order is up and running.  Sit tight for the vinyls.

wild animal kingdom compilation

underwater

While making my internet rounds the other day, I happened to see our Hold Yr Breath mixtape pinned up at one of our favorite record label’s blogsUnderwater Peoples, that is.  It was also good to see that the mix was in good company with a variety of other mixes from some of my favorite music watering holes.  One of these mixes that particularly caught my eye was that of the Wild Animal Kingdom.  Fathering many of the artists that are now on Underwater Peeps from Julian Lynch to Pill Wonder, and it doesn’t stop there.  On cassette, Wild Animal Kingdom’s second compilation features a heavenly dish of those chill laid-back tunes that are making everyone’s summer more enjoyable.  Head over to their site, check out the catalogue, and order what you fancy.  The 2nd comp is set for a FREE download and here are a couple tracks that have stood the test of my rewind button.

Karl Blau – I Hold You High
Fluffy Lumbers – Cruisers

weekly mixtape

weekly-tapemix-3-no-overlay

Maybe you noticed, maybe you didn’t but there was no mixtape last week.  Can’t exactly tell you why, but all you need to know is that this week is completely different than last.  Guess it’s a good thing that this particular wrap up will include tracks from more than one week, right?  Starts off fast and hard like punch in the face and ends up soft and smooth while the swelling subsides.

Lovvers- Ocd Go Go Girls
Black Math – Part of Me
The Big Pink – Velvet
The Shivers – Just Didn’t Need To Know

pill wonder//what we know

pillwonder

Been digging on Pill Wonder ever since the rad Underwater People comp dropped earlier this year, up for download at Butter x Face.  Just recently, Friendship Bracelet was able offer up some listenings that extended past the PW myspace page.  “What We Know”, is a sticky stroll through the rain forest after your buddies told you not to lick that tree frog.  Head over to Friendship Bracelet for some more great Pill Wonder tunes.  While your over there, make sure to join the club and grab his latest summer compilation.
