SO… its really is becoming desperate out there. While the country burns, Obama fiddles with the knobs on his well-tuned neoliberal joke machine.  All is revealed for what it is, the cannibals roaming around - don’t they know they need to come home?  It may be raining, but there’s a rainbow above you.

Desperado - Langley Schools Music Project

Desperado - Johnny Cash

Yo, so we apologize for the dearth of listings the last few weeks. But between the finals, papers, and tantric breathing exercises your intrepid hosts undertake, we just haven’t found much time for the music. What a blessing then, when the good folkers at BuffetLibre sent us the following mix.

Now, we get utter shit in the mail everyday from people asking us to post (hint: there’s still a guy that is enjoying MASHUPS with the Presidents of the United States… a shiny rupee to he who figures out what artist he would mashup their popular song with…). So it was delightful to get something actually interesting. Apparently there’s a backstory to this mix; there were “guest selectors” for certain songs. Whatever, just enjoy it and go ride your bike!

Buffetlibre Dj: “Verbena Selected 3: The Aftershow Party” (Zshare)

Spring beckons and TMYLM follows eagerly, abandoning multiday posting for whoa-whoa-whoa multistage-hidden identity assistant-magician tricks, school, family and friends experiences. Yes, the buds are out on the tree and you know what that calls for: some of the tweest shit you’ve heard in a while. So decalcify your espresso machine and listen to our songs (if you can avoid the various sex scandals)

Plants and Animals - Bye Bye Bye
White Rabbits - While We Go Dancing
Marianne Faithfull - Working Class Hero

So Dubai arrests some guy for having weed stuck to the soles of his shoes. Brooklyn charm-poppers Vampire Weekends release a song that echoes Paul Simon’s Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes. Hilarious skinny-jean wearing Max Gogarty gets demolished for privileged, promiscous traveling through India and Thailand. Gender-neutral pronouns emerge in Baltimore. The TSA travelog goes unmentioned in a long presidential weekend of crazy weather. Soulful world - soulful world music. Sorry haters but its what I am.

Maria Daniela y su Sonido Lasser - Miedo
The Exciters - Yo Que Nada Tengo

No, it’s not that weird internet dude. Sometimes you wake up in the morning and before heading out to navigate the stroller Normandy Beach in your local historic neighborhood, you want a 1960s band from Brazil to adopt a 1950s American style and with some flourish. I’m not too twee, I swear!

O Terco - Yes, I Do

She’d gotten a snare and a hihat and a cymbal and I couldn’t believe how loud it was. Her parents said she’d quit by year’s end. She did. She gave me a tape with weird indie music I’d never heard before–The Magnetic Fields, Pavement, Papas Fritas, the Legendary Jim Ruiz Group.

I had dreams of running up mountains and doing a thousand pushups a day and setting up old tires to run through in the backyard. Instead, I lounged around the living room flipping through the Minty Fresh Records catalog and listening to the Mets on the radio.

Legendary Jim Ruiz Group - Urban Gentleman
Legendary Jim Ruiz Group - Every Other Sunday
Legendary Jim Ruiz Group - Glad They’re Gone
Papas Fritas - Passion Play
