Weekend Playlist: Ticket to Ride

By |April 14th, 2012|Weekend Playlist|

Couldn’t make it to Coachella this weekend?  Or maybe large crowds just give you anxiety.  No worries, I’ve gone ahead and taken the liberty of putting together a nice little playlist of some of the artists that will be taking the stage and rocking out.  You get the best of both worlds: you can enjoy the sounds safely in the comfort of your own home without having to even put on your best Coachella outfit!  Sure, it’s not quite the same, but hey, the bathroom line is a whole lot shorter.

Weekend Playlist: Katie Don’t Play That

By |November 12th, 2011|Weekend Playlist|

When I tire of listening to the same playlist over and over and over…. and.  Well, you see where I’m headed.  I turn to my dear friend, Katie (who, if you will recall, guest “dj’ed” before).  She poo poo’s my Christina and Bruno and pulls me out from my teenage pop abyss.  I mean, that’s what friends are for, right?  Listen, Katie knows her music– so, if anyone’s looking for an A&R, this is the girl.  Anyway, I asked Katie to please, please, please make me a playlist that wouldn’t make someone over the age of 16 cringe and she put together this little party:


Oh, Katie… just climbing her way to the top of the charts.

Weekend Playlist: Guest DJ

By |June 4th, 2011|Guest Blogger, Weekend Playlist|

Like most, I had a Tuesday for a Monday this week (due to Memorial Day).  I initially thought, “Yay, no way will the start of this week blow like the others do!” But I was dead wrong.  I arrived at work with double the usual amount of work and attempted to make it through my day with RedBull alone.  Half way through the day I started up my iPod on my fav song and decided to let Genius do the rest.  A minute and a half into Le Blorr’s “Oh Christopher” I was smiling ear to ear.  I’d like to share this great mix in hopes that it can have the same effect on you fine people.  If I was a Von Trapp these songs would def be things I’d sing about.

  1. Bastard LoveChild of Rock and Roll– Oh Christopher
  2. Phantograms– Mouthful of Diamonds
  3. Fleetwood Mac– Gypsy
  4. Jonsi– Go Do
  5. Billie Holliday– The Way You Look Tonight
  6. M83– We Own the Sky
  7. Warpaint– Stars
  8. Donora– I Think I Like You
  9. Telepopmusik– Breathe
  10. YACHT– Psychic City (voodoo city)
  11. Ghostland Observatory– Give Me the Beat

Katie
