The Outkast Podkast.. and some new mash-up mixing skills!

This one was a lot of fun!
9 of my favorite tracks mashed into 15 minutes of awesome, just to remind us how Outkast totally changed the landscape of hip hop and pop culture in the last many years. Amazing beats, ridiculous flows, and provocative messages throughout.. plus the promise of a new album in 2010?..

Enjoy this one and hopefully you'll discover a track or two you haven't heard before.

Introducing... Miike Snow

Here it is, the second weekly installment of bite-sized mini-podcasts, for your listening pleasure. This one showcases a group that's been on very heavy rotation since I've discovered them (thanks saz!). They're creative and modern, and I guarantee you'll feel just a little bit cooler with each listen.

And yes, it's spelled Miike. A Swedish thing, I guess.

Get the album! One of my favorites of the last several months.

Playlist
1- cult logic
2- black & blue
3- sans soleil

Three Songs

Happy 2010! Time flies, a new decade, etc. etc.

So, I'm starting the year off with a totally new approach to these podcasts. Going forward, look for bite-sized, mini-podcasts of just three songs each, coming to you weekly. More frequent, easier to digest in delicious pocket-sized snack format, and just as random as ever.
