Busta Rhymes (Travis Barker Remix)

Not only is Blink 182 my favorite band ever, but this 'remix' of sorts is damned cool. Travis Barker=A hand full of awesome.

PS: Moving tomorrow.

Muse

If you still haven't gotten on board with the whole Muse thing, now is the time. A few weeks ago they released a live DVD/CD of maybe the biggest stadium show ever ever ever ever. Because they are so awesome, here:




PS: Wedding this week, moving next week. Forecast: Post to be spares.

Race the Sun

Here is a band that went away to soon. Regarded as a guilty pleasure by some critics was really about as much press attention as this band got. They are much more than that though, they show that music can be fun and upbeat all without being over simply or plain. I love these guys.

They are playing a reunion show June 6th. I wish I could be there for that.

Solo Tonight

The Faint

This is the band that introduced me to something more than pop-punk and hardcore bands. Simply just one of the most entertaining bands live and one of the most enjoyable to listen to. Just watch the videos for proof.
Also side note, punkrockvids was a site that hosted live/music videos from bands before the days of youtube. Oh the good ol days.



Does anyone know if these guys are working on anything new?

Crystal Castles

Drama time.

Creative Commons and Chip Music Theft
It's recently come to light that Crystal Castles, a Toronto-based band, has been heavily sampling music from several chip music artists without obtaining permission or crediting them. Lo-bat's tracks Bibibi and Tizzy, from his 8bitpeoples release Game Boy, are just two instances of this.

As you may have noticed, we release all our music under a Creative Commons BY-NC-ND License here at 8bitpeoples. What this means is that you're free to share it however you like, with whomever you like. All we ask in return is that you credit it appropriately, do not use it for any commercial purposes, and obtain permission before creating any derivative works (such as remixing it or using it as the soundtrack for a video). Crystal Castles has violated every term of this license in their use of Lo-Bat's music. Furthermore, they have committed copyright infringement by sampling other artists such as Covox, whose drums from his song Sunday appear in no less than four Crystal Castles songs.

...and it goes on.

For shame Crystal Castles, for shame.

Linky created digital music

Flight of the Conchords

Comedy as well as fun chill music plus a rollerskating video?

Sold.

Yelle

I wish I could dance like that. Even if you hate Yelle or electronic/dance music this video still must be seen for these moves.

Also, you shouldn't hate. love love love

Hit the Lights

Sometimes you just need fun pop punk. I saw these guys live back when they just had a burned ep they made themselves and it was ever so fun. They have a new cd coming out mid summer, look for them to explode.

I Married My High School Sweetheart

I know I do the whole video thing, but why not switch it up a bit? Even more so when it comes to hot hot electronic feel good pop. This is his full album Finally Over Anna. His newest Laugh Out Loud just came out and you can find it on itunes.

Sigur Ros

I am going to bed. I hope your dreams are much like this.

Boys Noize

Glassjaw

NEW GLASSJAW IS COMING IN JUNE. REJOICE.



NEW. GLASSJAW. IN. JUNE.

Thrice

Deadbolt. Fantastic.

http://www.absolutepunk.net/thrice_video.php

Here's the new video for Thrice- Come all you Weary. Enjoy.

Multimedia message

It's my birthday. Listen to thrice.

N.E.R.D. (Jason Nevins Remix)

This remix of rockstar is just, fantastic. Not to mention the video of FF7 Advent Children really brings out my nerd side.

I am sorry, I had to.

Mirror's Edge

Not only does this game look like it will take over my life when it comes out, but the song in the trailer is fantastic. Does anyone know who the song is by or what it is called?

Anyway, this whole Parkour/Free Running thing is growing and I like it.

Pelican

This is one of the best bands on the planet. Sorry to say I am very right in this regard. This is the entire show and the whole thing is well worth watching if you enjoy life.

Always the Runner

Fantastic usually instrumental rock that sadly, broke up from what I hear. Still, no reason it shouldn't be shared with the world.

Cool Kids

It really is hard to decide what my favorite song is.





I need to see these guys live.

Astronautalis

A nice video made for Astronautalis-Oceanwalk. If you haven't heard this guy then you are out of the loop...and it's an important loop.



Seriously, he kills it like no other. During all his shows he takes topics from the crowd and freestyles about them. If you have a chance to see him do it, if not, pick up The Mighty Ocean & Nine Dark Theaters.

Between the Buried and Me

I have no clue on earth what this video is about. Being healthy I suppose. Point is, this is one of the best songs off of Colors. Between the Buried and Me is very health when it comes to rocking. The part at 5:16 does confuse me though.



This song has possibly my most favorite intro.

Robyn (Ocelot Remix)

Aside from Ocelot just ruling all around, this video has people getting hit in the face in slow motion. Win win and win.

From First to Last

Dear gosh how this ep ruled my life when I got it. Miles away from everything they did after it. I did however get the self-titled lp today and while different, I am enjoying it.

If all you know of this band is the album 'Heroine', I am sorry.

Rihanna

I have no idea how long this video/single has been out but this is easily the best song off Good Girl Gone Bad.

Anamanaguchi

If you don't feel happy after hearing this then you must be satan. I know live videos usually don't showcase the best sound but in this case I believe it shows the heart. Again, 8bitpeoples.com has this artist.

Estelle featuring Kanye West

Awesome beat: Check
Awesome female vocals: Check
Kanye being awesome: Check
Fantastic pop song on the verge of total takeover: Check

A Day To Remember

This cd restored my faith in whatever genre you want to call this.

Daft Punk

Buy Daft Punk's Alive album. If you don't bears will kill you.

M83

New M83? Yes please. This is from Saturdays=Youth which I just picked up. Not nearly as intense as past releases, but easy to fall in love with none the less.

Justice vs. Simian

Justice will destroy you.

Random

Praise be to gameboys. If you like this (which if you have a soul, you should) check out 8bitpeoples.com

My only question is if this is a real music video or a student made one. Driving is fun I guess.

The Presets

This Boy's in Love off The Presets latest. A poster on an internet forum I make daily visits to showed me these guys and I must say, I am a fan.
