Skeletons in the Closet



We held out a sign that spelled out S-K-E-L-E-T-O-N, We chanted and chanted and chanted. After a few subtle instances of eye contact, Kele finally acknowledged our pleas. "What's that say? Skeleton?" But after a brief talk with Matt Tong, he said they wouldn't play it. History was made last week when a girl in DC held out a sign that said TULIPS, and Bloc honored her request, a song they haven't played live in two years. So in her honor, here are some ill Bloc B-sides that some of you might not know of but should def get on.

There is still alot more to come. Bag Raiders, Fred Falke, and Likelike are def a few of my top pics. Be sure to spot their tracks here in the future.

Cut Copy Matt & Kim NYC







  
                                     2008 was definitely a year for the synthesizer. Electric tracks reined supreme on the dance floor. This union of rock and pop ultimately created a child no one could ignore. Even the shy fell to it's spell of raging excitement. In Ghost Colours, is Australian group Cut Copy's second album. It's a highlight of last years epic rise of electric. I caught Cut Copy at NYC's Terminal 5 on Saturday. The show was absolutely amazing. The show was sold out, meaning about 3000 were there. Definitely one of my favorite live performances, they had the crowd going crazy, you couldn't help but dance. Brooklyn's own Matt & Kim opened started us off that night. Now they are one band to look out for; and if you don;t know, then find out. Throughout their whole set they were both smiling and you can tell they had an amazing time. Matt even mes
sed up alittle, so they broke out into random break dancing.
