Stream Gil Scott-Heron's I'm New Here

Don't know how we missed this last week but there is a widget to play Gil Scott-Heron's new album I'm New Here
Video: Syntaks "Blue Sunshine"
Here is a little something to ease you back into the work week. It's pretty chill song but I really like the video for it's textures and the way it makes me want to live on the beach. You don't necessarily see any beaches in the video but for some reason I want to move to the beach... like RIGHT NOW! You can pick up Syntaks album Ylajali HERE

New MGMT Album This April
During an interview with MTV recently MGMT let it slip that we could see a new album from them as soon as this April. And now that there is a clock counting down to April 13th, which is a Tuesday by the way, on MGMT's website it seems to be pretty much confirmed at this point.
Normally, I don't post much about new album releases until I have at least a mp3 or video to go with it but I thought this would be worth mentioning for one reason: I am so sick of the song "Kids" by MGMT that I'm hoping a new album worth of material will convince people to stop playing that song.
Don't get me wrong folks, MGMT's album Oracular Spectacular
So, MGMT, if you're reading this, and I hope you are, please, please, please make a good album so that radio stations not just here but everywhere will put that awful song to bed.
Video: Neon Indian "Deadbeat Summer" on Laundro Matinee
Is it just me or does this just not sound very good? And it also sounds just like they sounded live when I saw them last year. So maybe Neon Indian are just not very good live? I don't like to be a "negative nancy" (on this blog at least) but I think Alan and pals need to spend some more time in the practice studio OR maybe I am just being a jerk? I do love the album
