discover Hidden Systems

Raveonettes have some company...Bright Archer is perfecting the melancholy-power-anthem genre that Raveonettes are so good at. Bright Archers's new album Hidden Systems drops July 5. So enjoy the title track below and make sure to check out the entire album next week.

Anne get your gun!

Still workin' at a frantic pace. Newish music: Anne mixtapeone. It's part Raveonettes, part Stone Roses but somehow still comes across as fresh. It's raw rock like I like it. They just did a show in Oakland so not sure when they're back in the Bay. Check it.

What a way to earn a livin'

This weekend I watched a funny movie called Easy A starring Emma Stone. It was like 2010's answer to Mean Girls. It wasn't done as well but still provided some great laughs; Emma Stone was hilarious. Anyhoo the movie kinda played off of 80's teen-angst John Hughesy stuff and it got me thinking; what songs would I want in my teen angst movie? Here's what I've come up with:

Anne-Stripping (more on Anne later!)


Raveonettes-I wanna be adored


Hope Sandoval-Charlotte


Broadcast-Come on Let's Go


Crystal Castles-Violent Dreams

Viva la Weekend!
