2008 Best of Sounds: February

December 22, 2008 · Filed Under music · Comment 

February is going to land in my top 3. There is a ton of good music bubbling up before SXSW and 2008 was spectacular. I had a hard time culling this list down to five. So many good songs left out.

Saw The Beautiful Girls open for O.A.R. in Chicago this past summer. The Shins originally hail my hometown, Albuquerque, NM. Ghostland Observatory, The Kooks, & The Raveonettes round out the Top 5.

Bonus: The Raveonettes song is free right now in the Amazon Store. 243kb of DRM-free goodness for your collection. Click the link.

All the songs are in my opentape at http://jbinfrisco.com/opentape/

The Beautiful Girls - “I Thought About You”

The Shins - “Phantom Limb”

Ghostland Observatory - “Over Again”

The Kooks - “Naive”

The Raveonettes - “Dead Sound”

Audio of winning kick in OT - Saints @ Bears (Dec. 11th, 2008)

December 19, 2008 · Filed Under sports · Comment 

I went to my first NFL game at Soldier Field last week. Saw the Bears beat the Saints in OT with a game winning FG. For some reason, I recorded the final minute using my iPhone. Some pretty interesting things were captured. The anticipation, the roar as Gould makes it, the celebratory ‘Bear Down Chicago Bears’ that broke out amongst the largely drunk crowd. The little whoop at the end is me……funny stuff. Regards ~ JB

2008 Best of Sounds: January

December 19, 2008 · Filed Under music · Comment 

I love December. Many of my favorite music bloggers post their ‘Best of 2008′ lists. I thought I’d try a little twist and post up five songs from each month of 2008. The musical journey will include electronic, funk, indie rock, metal, indie pop, country, alt. rock, & hip/hop. If I’m not totally sick of this exercise by December 31st, I’ll post up a little bonus on Day 13.

  • Listen to the songs on my OpenTape at http://jbinfrisco.com/opentape/
  • If you dig the song, click the link below to buy it. Amazon sells DRM-free music at great prices. The bit rate is higher than iTunes and the music is playable on any device that plays mp3’s. DRM-free is the best way to build your personal music collection. I’ll plow any revenues back into more music in 2009.

My near obsessive lust for discovering new sounds resulted in almost 1100 additions to my iTunes library. Here are five from January, 2008. Regards ~ JB

The Ting Tings - “That’s Not My Name”

Finger Eleven - “Paralyzer”

Okkervil River - “Unless It’s Kicks”

Vampire Weekend - “Oxford Comma”

The Damnwells - “Down With The Ship” - Not listed by Amazon
