Your favorite Country/Western band from Seattle is at it again . Brent Amaker & The Rodeo have recorded a Christmas tune for all to enjoy and because I am super great at having things time out perfectly, I have 'A Very Brent Amaker Christmas', the new track from the boys here for you promptly after Christmas.

Formally trained in jazz and improvisation, local dude Tito Ramsey has decided to challenge himself and expand his productions skills by creating rich, soul inspired electro jams.

Quentin Dupieux is Mr Oizo, a man who creates music that is inventive and awesome but it's also, at times, extremely difficult to listen to a track (or even an entire album, Moustache (Half a Scissor) for example) all the way through without having your head explode.

The last time Justice played Seattle they rocked the Showbox SoDo and I just about missed the entire show . I was across the street at Hooverville (pre fire) with some friends as we had thought that Justice was going to take the stage later in the evening than they actually did.

The Tractor Tavern hosted a sold out show this past weekend as the city of Seattle welcomed The Maldives back to familiar digs with open arms.

I've been following the career of Teenage Badgirl aka Guillaume Manbell and Greg Kazubski ever since I first laid my ears upon their gut busting debut record Cocotte.

I hadn't heard of Norwegian producer Lindstrom before 2 weeks ago or so and since having heard of Lindstrom and subsequently listening to his latest track 'De Javu', from his new record entitled Six Cups of Rebel which is to be released this February 6th 2012, I haven't been able to turn the darn thing off.

DJ Cam is another in a long line of amazing DJ's/producers coming out of France that I am completely digging on right now . I can't remember exactly which song it was that I listened to first from DJ Cam but I do know is that it was either 'Summer in Paris' feat.

's latest and greatest record Planet Highschool is set to be released this February 2012 via and I just cannot wait for this thing to arrive. The first single from the record, 'Palace Chalice' is a slow, sexy hip hop infused jam that will get your hips swaying right from the start. I had the chance to chat with Mux Mool at this past year's Decibel Festival about the new record, his time in rehab and other neat-o things that you want to know about. Go ahead and check that .

Listen to a taste of some older Mux Mool below and then tell me you don't love it. Or, maybe don't tell me. Just keep that to yourself...

Last night I dropped by the Crocodile to meet up with a couple of friends (ladyfriends, that is) and have a drink and discuss fun and interesting things.
