Kerosene! – Yves Tumor Electronic psychedelic? I think this is probably the best way to describe Yves Tumor‘s track “Kerosene!” I am giving it a real listen for the first time at the time of writing and am a bit awestruck.

Too Bad – Nickelback There’s been a recent resurgence of late 90s and early 2000s (post-grunge?) bands, Creed, 3 Doors Down (my first concert), and perhaps to my greatest enjoyment, Nickelback.

Here Comes the Hotstepper – Dr. Dog Dr. Dog‘s cover of the iconic 90’s dancehall hit “Here Comes the Hotstepper” was quite the surprise when I first heard it this week on the way back home. Laid-back and fun, this is one of the more effortlessly cool songs of all time, with this less polished… Read more
