Weekend of 01-20-12

Pretty sure I’ve never seen a video or a lineup like this – fully electrifying. I don’t think it is any accident that over 18 million people have seen this. Needless to say, I’m looking up tickets this afternoon for a Europe throwdown. Hot beats and cold weather this week, kind of like the ski lodge on a power day. EXACTLY where I want to be.
Break Science – Talk That Talk (Rihanna Remix) – This remix is SO good. Definitely on my top 10 "wish I had a Landrover" jams for 2012. Love the huge bass lines and voluptuous beat drop.
Shwayze feat Adele – I Won’t Go – Smooth operations all around. The voices and piano in this one are silk for the ears. Not the soy milk kind.
Left Boy – VIE – Two weeks in a row, Left Boy delivers a much more authentic music blitz, sampling from an older days. Kind of like a Hoodie Allen, if you’re into that.
W.E.E.D – Love for Free – I like this a lot. It’s got that sexiness that makes hip hop work, fused with some straight 50-Cent style rap.
Temple of the Dog – Hunger Strike – Blast from the 90’s, Eddie Vedder and Chris Cornell lay down one of the most vintage angst jams. What’s funny is that most people just refer to this song as "Oh – yeah I heard that in the first Girl Talk album." Sigh.

Oh thank goodness I got my daily recommended dose of jams today. Total FDA sh*t. This week brings the hammer down on some monster chart toppers. See ya never.
• Lady GaGa – Born This Way – After watching her on the Grammys and on 60 Minutes, I had to put this one at #1. So did America.
Katy Perry – E.T. (feat. Kanye West) – This is one of the best bump and grind songs I have heard in a while. You’re. So. Hypnotizing. Could you be the devil? You bet.
Rihanna – S&M – Rihanna coming at the jams with another dance hit.
Hoodie Allen – You Are Not A Robot (Marina & The Diamonds Remix) – I’m a huge fan of Hoodie Allen and glad he made this Marina song about 3x sweeter.
Wolf Gang – Dancing With The Devil – Arcade Fire? Almost.

Yeah! I entered an online contest for a Public Service Announcement design and WON THAT!! They were looking for something that inspires in a creative way. It is a national chain so they have yet to decide exactly where it’s going but they expect over 200K eyeballs on it. Yahoo! Love the jams.

Hoodie Allen – Words of Wisdom – A scrumptious little jam for the hip hoppers.

Arcade Fire – Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains) – Hottest band on the scene right now drops down a little taste of heaven.

Mouth’s Cradle – Summertime - A nice take on Hey Soul Sister.

Dierks Bentley – Feel That Fire - Ooo a country hit for anyone looking to feel way good about America.

Van Morrison – Astral Weeks – The summer man with the summer jam.
