Some Indie Jams You Should Have

Start out with the original:

And then get the remix:

Penguin Prison - The Worse It Gets (RAC Remix)

This song has been in my head all day. I was skating the DU pond today for an hour just singing all the while. The 3 bikini-clad girls who were tanning right next to me probably thought I was a weirdo....but that's okay. I had a blast. I'm starting to have alot of fun skating again. I've got a few tricks that I would only land luckily on lock and it's a good feeling.

Last night John and Clark had their joint birthday party. Twas fun. Austin rolled down and we got buck on the sweatbox basement dance floor with a bunch of other chillers. Unfortunately, John didn't get the birthday fun he woulda liked, but I think everyone had a great time regardless. Like always, me and Austin got Jeru's on the way home. Falafel sandwich with hot sauce? Delicious.

I woke up this morning and ate a pint of Ben and Jerry's. I gave ice cream up for lent, so I enjoyed it. Unfortunately, it wasn't all I had hoped for. Ice cream, despite being incredible, only gives you so much happiness. But the rest of the day was fantastic ending with a great moose curry made by Mr. Sake Talk himself.

But we know you really just want some music. So here it is:


Tokyo Police Club - Graves

I would post every song I have by TPC, but I'd probably get a cease and desist. I would just like to say that there isn't a song I've heard by them yet that I don't like at least somewhat. And that's hard. I'm pretty picky. This one is real tight. I love the little guitar diddy that comes in with about 30 seconds left. I'm a sucker for harmony lines like that.


Black Kids - I'm Not Going To Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You (The Twelves Remix)

This is kinda old, but it's super super fun. And it makes a good point. You should not ever devote the time teaching somebody's dude to dance. You're just raising his girl-keeping potential. And lets be honest, you probably want her to break up with him anyway.


Friends Electric - Hours


A pretty happy song with some happy sounds and happy vibes. I really like the falling electronic pulse sounds and the background vocals. It's a simple song, but effective. ...it's saturday we've got every hour in the world.


I hope everyone enjoys those and has a great start to the week.

I'll leave you with another youtube song (cause i don't have the mp3). Despite the lyrics being super weird, I love the keyboard: If you've got things on your mind...Shake Them Off!

Later!
