Song of the Day: Animal Collective - Daily Routine (Indie)

I'm stoked to bring you one of my favorite tracks from Animal Collective! This is from the group's 2009 album, "Merriweather Post Pavilion." I know this band is pretty mainstream now, but all my picks can't be esoteric. Hehe. Anyway, I find this track perfect to come home and unwind to after a long, busy day.


Animal Collective is made up of David Portner, Noah Lennox, Josh Dibb, and Brian Weitz. They've been making music together for over a decade. Since 2000 the group released a whopping 12 albums and in some years, they've released more than one. I think the band's ambition and creativity certainly paid off as their music is  well known and respected. Their style has been called psychedelic folk music and noise rock. As you may have noticed from the track above, these labels are not far off. :D

The group's latest album is, "Centipede Hz" (Aug. 2012). It consists of 14 tracks laden with experimental and psychedelic awesomeness. You can listen to Track 9 below!

Song of the Day: Say Hi To Your Mom - The Stars Just Blink... (Indie)

Yay! The weekend is almost here! Here's the perfect track to get you through the day. This is from Eric Elbogen's 2009 album, "Oohs & Aahs."  It's super chill, lo-fi goodness. Just sit back, relax and enjoy!


Originally from California, Elbogen moved to Brooklyn after graduating from UCLA and formed the band, "Say Hi To Your Mom."  Right now, the band calls Seattle home. Elbogen released his debut album, "Discosadness" in 2002 and hasn't looked back since. Between 2006 and present, Elbogen released seven albums and two singles. His latest release is a collection of instrumental tracks he produced for a film called, "Free Samples" (May 2013). That album is comprised of many short tracks, most less than two minutes long in length and they appear to be situational in nature. Not exactly danceable. Haha. So, I'll share one of my favorites from Elbogen's 2011 album, "Um, Uh Oh."


That's Track 4.
It's a pretty catchy tune, yeah? :D Check out Elbogen's Facebook page for additional info and tracks! I'm saving the best for last, so be sure to check back tomorrow for more indie picks!

Song of the Day: Will Croucher - The One That Got Away (Indie)

Happy Wednesday! I've got a great track lined up for you, today! This is Track 2 on Will Croucher's debut solo EP entitled "I'd Rather Be Dreaming" from July 2011. You may have heard of Croucher as he is the drummer for the kick ass band, MillionYoung. :D


Originally from Tennessee, Croucher apparently recorded the lo-fi EP entirely on his own. So, any instruments you hear were likely played solely by him. Pretty awesome! :P It's unclear whether Croucher has anything new cooking for this year. It's likely that he's busy keeping up with music production and tours with MillionYoung. I can't wait to hear more, though! If you're interested you can download Croucher's debut EP from his Bandcamp page. Enjoy!
