From the desk of our West Coast correspondant (Ako)

"Horchata" is dead to me.

Zomby's "Digital Flora" / "Digital Fauna" single. Is this shit over or just starting? I have no idea.

Give it a sec

This never gets old. Thanks Leo!

I agree!

How many blog posts with the title "A.I. is not the answer" are there?

How are we gonna find out if Gallinari is Kyle Korver lite, if AI takes his shots?

How are we gonna find out if Toney Douglas is Lavar Postell: The Sequel, if AI takes all his minutes?

How are we gonna find out if Nate Rob can rap, if AI takes all his verses?

Though Larry Hughes will be stoked, vintage Sixers-wise.

Monday just got better

One thing I learned in the last week. You cannot say "Radioclit" in the New York Times (paste the link)

This is what a typical work conversation looks like.

It's a little bit late but here's a general CMJ summary. The XX was a little worse than it reads in the chart.

!!!

Cass McCombs played on Monday. I was bummed I couldn't stay until the end. He's really sounding good these days.

This is like Warhol's "Empire" but different

Does anyone have this MP3?

Jesu "Opiate Sun" EP review revised. I changed my mind!

I've always liked Jesu but I wasn't really ready for this one!

Cold Cave is a band formed by the guy Pete Wentz stole some lines from. They sound like a dark band from Manchester. And the band formed after that.

I saw Surfer Blood 3 times last week. That was that. This is their LP review!

Lost at sea in CMJ... check the tweets? Or the Times CMJ blog.

!

This basically sounds just as good as it does on the EP!

Pantha Du Prince's upcoming press photo! Can anything be as good as "This Bliss"?

Saturday tunes still sound good

This is fully jumping the gun.

"The Last 10 Years of Music" today in the paper...

There's a pdf of it here

Raekwon's Only Built 4 Cuban Linx PT II! It took long enough...

The new Built To Spill LP leaked. "There Is No Enemy." I feel like I've spent half my life listening to this guy. (I have!)

The Yeah Yeah Yeahs played a show at the Music Hall the other night. I won't lie and tell you I didn't shed a tear during the "Maps" sing-along.

Of course I'm into it!

Off to France! See you in a week! Briggs get it together the bus leaves in 2 hours!

Well done.

This makes me happier on bummer days.

Today's IM discussion: "Put some sub woofers on this and you're good to go" "I know."

Whoops that last Julian Casablancas chart was messed up. I blame the jet lag! Here's a revised version...

Julian Casablancas played solo for the first time last week at the Liquid room. He was fucking terrible!

No brog posts for a little bit I'm going to Tokyo tomorrow to hang out with Strokes singers and fashion stoners. Be back later!

The title of Frightened Rabbit's album "The Midnight Organ Fight" is not funny then funny then not funny and then funny again. How're the jams?

New Gang Gang jam "Mind Killer" in London! Herbie Hancock vibes!

Tinchy Stryder's new album is finally out! "Catch 22"! I refrained from all the Gang Gang references. It was hard.

I kind of wish I made this album cover.

The new Destroyer EP! I was promised "techno". "Bay of Pigs"

RAdiohead released a new song called "These Are My Twisted Words". This is my wordy review.

Gone for a couple of weeks! Be back after lollapalooza... peep tweets for saucy tour photos

Spaced-out remixes of space-jams from the desks of Cha DJ's.

Omar-S played in Brooklyn today! It's been a long week slash what was my excuse for not going?

Modest Mouse put out a new e.p.! Do you care anymore? I still do!

Lebron didn't really get dunked as much as he was caught going through the motions!

But this next one's pretty good.

BUTTERYASS MONDAYS

Take care man

What's up Blackouts!
