Song of the Day: A Thousand Miles
Today’s song is A Thousand Miles by SADBOii. Yep. Another cover of a nostalgic song from my childhood. Get over it. This is a more synth-filled rendition of the original by Vanessa Carlton. This holds less of a… Read More

Song of the Day: Seattle
Today’s song is Seattle by Jonah Taylor. Something with steady harmonies that isn’t well known. Why? Because the Internet is so vast and full of pleasant surprises like this. Once the song hits the chorus, I knew this… Read More

Song of the Day: Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!
Today’s song is Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! by Gamper & Dadoni. This is obviously a cover of the brilliant ABBA original. This one is more stylized to fit modern taste. Heavier focus on the electronic hook. Layered mixing. More… Read More

Song of the Day: So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings
Today’s song is So Hot You’re Hurting My Feelings by Caroline Polachek. This song hits ‘Kate Bush vibes’ that I’ve been missing for a while. I can’t really describe this one. She matches HAIM in some stylistic choices…. Read More

Song of the Day: Portraits
Today’s song is Portraits by Dance With The Dead. Back to basics (without a consistent theme). This is a beautiful synth-laden track from an electronic metal band. Yeah, I understand the bizarre nature, but tell me if you’ve… Read More

Song of the Day: Rock It For Me
Today’s song is Rock It For Me by Caravan Palace. This is a more ‘upbeat’ song with less electronic elements and a more swing focus. Far easier to bob to. A greater emphasis for dancing than easy listening…. Read More

Song of the Day: Chambermaid Swing
Today’s song is Chambermaid Swing by Parov Stelar. This was my ‘introduction’ to the whole Electro-Swing genre. Mashed current layering techniques with 1920’s elements. Such a unique blend. By current standards, this was some real ‘early work’ from… Read More

Song of the Day: Wonderland
Today’s song is Wonderland by Caravan Palace. This genre is called Electro-Swing. I was WAY too into it in High School. I’m going to be highlighting the whole genre this week. Consider it a ‘theme for the week’…. Read More

Song of the Day: She Doesn’t Sleep
Today’s song is She Doesn’t Sleep by Anthony Amorim. This is for Kaitlin Swift (who also doesn’t sleep). She works harder than anyone I’ve ever met. She’s inspired me for years and I owe her everything. Thank you… Read More
