The genre loosely referred to as Indie Rock is not something I keep up with, but rather something I let come to me. That said, Neon Indian’s actual band name might ring more bells than the organic dance outfit’s actual music, but if their catastrophic cover T. Rex’s “Children Of The Revolution” is any indicator of how reckless their sound is, my horizons might have to be broadened. Forget the homegrown original, this complete script-flipper of a cover sounds like Mega-Man took twenty too many caps before hitting up the Wiley Fortress and wrecking house.
Which is a good thing, despite possibly needing a piece of clothing near by to put in my mouth if I start having a seizure.

You might find another video or something that coincides with Smoking Section a little more than Neon Indian. I like the dude but damn, sometimes I think you guys just ignore other blogs that actually have relevant music with an actual hiphop backbeat that people on here will like.
Have you heard Star Slinger yet?
Starslinger.net
What about Evan Voytas?

What about How to Dress Well?

You guys are ahead of the curve in hiphop..why not make that music period??
It took you too long to post about Odd Future..while I’m skimming through posts about Waka Flocka and Paul Wall wondering why no OF posts??!
Please no more Neon Indian. I don’t come here to learn about past music fads, even if they are not even a year old..I come here for up to date relevant information on good music. Click some links you haven’t before. You might find something worthy of TSS.
Nothing but love for this site. This is my first visit everyday. The above stated is solely a music lovers opinion of his favorite blog.
@beatzu
thanks for the input. recommend a few songs and ill check them out.
@Beware4—-first off I’d like to say thanks to you fine gentlemen @ TSS for keeping me up to date on my most loved musical platform..HIPHOP!
Here are a few song recommendations.
Star Slinger-”Gimme” and “Innocent” off of his Volume 1 compilation..he also has a grip of remixes that he has done and is going to be on tour in the United States starting in late January or early February with support from fellow beatsmith Baths. This guy is from Manchester UK I believe and is getting tons of play @ the casa. I was thinking about hitting the ATL show, we’ll see how the bankroll looks around that time! Free downloads @ starslinger.net
Evan Voytas-”Getting Higher” and “Our Thing”….What can I say??! This dude is the shit…I’m under the impression that he plays guitar for TSS favorite Blu in a live setting. I haven’t fully looked into that because I’ve been completely overwhelmed with these two tracks I’ve listed above. Nasty Nasty Nasty. I believe dude is from L.A. and with tracks like this he will probably stay in steady rotation @ the casa.
Album “Tomorrow Night We’ll Go Anywhere” out on Cascine Records
Cascine.us/Evan-Voytas
How To Dress Well-”Ready for the World” and “Ecstasy With JoJo”…wow this dude is surreal. He completely flipped Ready for the World’s “Love You Down” and put his own spin on it creating one of my favorite tracks of 2010. I believe ol’ boy splits time between Chicago, New York, and Space. Dude has some upcoming shows posted on his blogspot. I’m currently loving the L0-F! R&B boom that is taking the interwebs by storm!!
