  • Moxi – Missing Piece

    Moxi
    Fun loving electronic pop track from Moxi.




    Bio:

    Moxi is an indie pop duo from Los Angeles, CA, built on the dreamy vocals of Anna Nelson and surrounded by the moody, atmospheric keyboards of Andy Toy.  Drawing on elements from pop, classic cinema, and 80?s new wave, Moxi sets Nelson’s distinct vocals on a backdrop of big drums and electronic textures.  ”Through the Dark”, the follow up EP to 2013?s “In My Dreams” lives up to its name as darker, more beat-driven, and more of a wanderer than it’s predecessor.  Teaming up with Emmy award winning producer Bobby Hartry, Moxi plans to release “Through The Dark” in the fall of 2014 with Catbeach music.

  • White Town – Your Woman

    WhiteTown

    Going back all the way to 1997  and featuring a muted trumpet line taken from “My Woman” by Al Bowlly (jazz cat famous in the 1930′).   This track was in heavy rotation here in Los Angeles on KROQ,  This was when KROQ actually played all kinds of music and not just the Top 40,  that it now plays.  Yes, a bit bitter about that station but nothing last forever.

    A Bit of Background on the track (according to Wikipedia):

    White Town’s sole band member and writer of “Your Woman”, Jyoti Prakash Mishra, has stated that the lyrics could stem from or be related to multiple situations. He says “When I wrote it, I was trying to write a pop song that had more than one perspective. Although it’s written in the first person the character behind that viewpoint isn’t necessarily what the casual listener would expect”.[2] The lyrics could mean “Being a member of an orthodox Trotskyist / Marxist movement. Being a straight guy in love with a lesbian. Being a gay guy in love with a straight man. Being a straight girl in love with a lying, two-timing, fake-arse Marxist. The hypocrisy that results when love and lust get mixed up with highbrow ideals.”[2] Many listeners also likened the song to a breakup letter, where the man reading the breakup letter imitates the woman’s voice.[2]

     

     

  • BROODS – Mother & Father

    Mother&Father

    Think a mix of Imogen Heap with College. It’s a sadder number, but with great energy.
