VIDEO: iamamiwhoami - “in due order”

“In Due Order” is the latest track from everyone’s favorite Swedish YouTube enigma, Jonna Lee (a.k.a. iamamiwhoami). This uptempo video features Lee and her fuzzy friends dancing to a propulsive beat. I dare you to stay still during this one.

We don’t ask for anything.

WALSH - “Untitled (featuring Mat Cothran)”

[Smoke Weed About, Wonder Beard, 2010]

I told you to buy it, didn’t I?  Now, on the day that my copy arrives in the mail, Smoke Weed About It is officially sold out on Wonder Beard Tapes. I sure hope you took my advice because I can’t get enough of these tunes, and this limited edition of 25 pretty white shelled cassettes went fast. But not to worry, you can still download a digital copy here.

WALSH is the solo project of Brandon Biondo, the lead member of COOLRUNNINGS. His seven song EP Smoke Weed About It is nothing short of amazing. Side A’s delicious synths are ideal for dancing and moving around, and I’m pretty sure Side B is what you are supposed to “smoke weed about.” High or not, Smoke Weed About It is the perfect release to cap off my already drool-inducing tape collection of 2010.

At the end of Side A is an “Untitled” song featuring Mat Cothran, perhaps better known as Coma Cinema, who also has a cassette coming out on Wonder Beard early next year. (Buy that too!) His comforting voice soothes the blaring retro synths into a deeply satisfying piece of cigarette dance pop.

So next time Wonder Beard (or any label for that matter) releases a super limited edition of one of the grooviest tapes of the year, don’t think, buy that shit! Chances are, you won’t regret it.
