Willy DeVille-It's So Easy

I love anything that Tarantino does and his soundtracks are always epic but this song is by far one of my favorites from his picks.
  Willy's got an amazing history and an even more impressive repertoire when it comes to writing music. Well worth checking out.

Chinese Man-If You Please



Damn, I've had this beat in my head all day. What an AMAZING album!! Go out and buy Racing With The Sun. So hard to pick a winner off of this album!

Tuesday, December 17, 2013

Easy Star All Stars-Money


Hard to cover anything by Pink Floyd but I have to admit that I've listened to this album a lot. I love it and they do a great job. Well worth searching out the whole album "Dub Side Of The Moon".

Ol' Dirty Bastard-Shimmy Shimmy Ya

This guy is unbelievable….well, he was. I love the beat and his "I don't give a f*!k attitude.
Enjoy the hilarity!

Fucked Up - "Queen Of Hearts"



Another great Canadian band with a hundred stories to tell….if you can understand the singer that is.

Tuesday, December 3, 2013

Cypress Hill - I Ain't Goin' Out Like That


I've had this song in my head all afternoon. These guys made an album that is as relevant now as is was in '93. Black Sunday has to be one of the top ten hip hop albums of all time. Classic!

Darkest Hour - Your Every Day Disaster (Official Video)



This is one of my Favorite metal bands by far. I've been trying to find the best song for weeks, but I can't! I love all of their albums and too many of their songs, so here's the fav of the moment. I love when it really kicks in at 45 sec.

Tuesday, November 26, 2013

Attempted Douchebag

Just came to my attention that Tim Lambesis is being tried for planning to kill his wife and I just want to clarify that I don't support this kind of behavior.  Good song though….

As I Lay Dying: Nothing Left (NEW VIDEO EXLUSIVE!!)



Another great concert! Tim Lambesis is a F'in machine!

Monday, November 25, 2013

Slayer-Dead Skin Mask



Had to start the week off with one of the most iconic Metal groups of all times. This song has been one of my favorites through out the years. It's the riff, amazing! Kerry King and Jeff Hanneman (R.I.P.) must be possessed to be able to play like this.
A Slayer concert has to be one of the most memorable concerts I've ever gone to.

Metal Week

Here we go for 8 days, yes an 8 day week (8tracks, hmmm), of metal that will shake the fillings from your teeth. I'll be posting some of my favorite tunes from the last decade or so put on that Slayer shirt and rock out!

Sunday, November 24, 2013

Buena Vista Social Club-'Chan Chan' at Carnegie Hall


This may be one of their most popular songs and I know why. Everytime I hear it I'm filled with emotion. Seeing this video of them playing, I don't know how many decades after it was recorded, is amazing!
Enjoy this song and go and listen to the whole album. These guys real are incredible.

Friday, November 22, 2013

The Uncluded-Jambie Cafe

Well isn't this a novel little project. I loved the collaboration on Aesop's "Skelethon" and they've made a great album.

Thursday, November 21, 2013

Sage Francis-You Can't Win (Feat. B.Dolan)

The Epic Beard Men are back dropping this SICK new track. I can't wait for the new album!

Tuesday, November 19, 2013

Monday, November 18, 2013

Blink 182-Dick Lips

I think this was the first song I ever heard by these guys and I still love it.

Sunday, November 17, 2013

Lhasa de Sela-Desdenosa

I can't help being carried away by this woman's voice. I strongly suggest listening to any of their albums all the way through.

Saturday, November 16, 2013

Soulwax-Another Excuse

Ok so I promised myself I wouldn't post two songs by the same artist, but tonight 2 Many Dj's are playing in Martigny so this is the exception. I know the name doesn't say 2 Many Dj's but they are one and the same. The Dewaele brothers from Belgium, epic!

Selva De Mar-Gulab Jaman

Ok this is a group my sister showed me a long time ago. It's perfect to chill to, even though it's a little haunting at times. I love the sound of the hang drum. If you don't know what the Hang Drum is, I suggest you google it, such an amazing sound.

Friday, October 18, 2013

Clutch-Regulator



If you like this go and check out "Spacegrass"! Two of my favorite songs by these guys.

Wednesday, October 2, 2013

Kids Cover Tool's Forty Six & 2


We I didn't expect to find this but it's great!  All school music programs should be as cool as this. Kids are sooooo damn capable.
Just for good measure here's the original.
It will be on the 8tracks playlist as well

SID VICIOUS - May Way HD


Everything the sex pistols did is summed up in this song. Sid Vicious did it right!!! For this song anyway....

Tuesday, September 24, 2013

Strung Out - Bring Out Your Dead

James Brown - Get Up Offa That Thing


Now if only I could dance and scream like James Brown. The world would be a different place!

Friday, September 20, 2013

Guns n Roses-Nice Boys

Nice boys don't like rock n roll

One of their first songs and It's is a song that shaped my life. No worries nothing but the music! Live it!!!

Thursday, September 19, 2013

MGMT - Weekend Wars



To celebrate the release of their new album "MGMT", here's a pick from the album "Oracular Spectacular.
I love the genre bending these guys are doing. It almost reminds me of the psychedelic phase of the Beatles

Tuesday, September 17, 2013

Deltron 3030 - Memory Loss



Ok I'm super stoked! I just heard that Deltron is releasing a new album on October 1st!!
This is the best news I've heard all week. I absolutely LOVE this whole CD. I had a hell of a time trying to pick a song from this album

Sunday, September 15, 2013

Friday, September 13, 2013

The Smiths - London


I love this track! I first heard the Anthrax cover on the Airheads Soundtrack about 15 years ago.  All this time later I've found this one.  Just for kicks here is the Anthrax version as well.
Lets see which one you all prefer.
Feel free to post comments and opinions.

Thursday, September 12, 2013

Ivan Smagghe-A Walk In The Woods

Ok so this is not my customary post. There is no video to this song so I'm posting the sound cloud link.
It's a 50min track that starts off slow but if you have the time it really picks up. My favorite bit is from 26min to about 35min-ish.
A great track for driving, studying or gettin' creative.
Let it flow!!




The track, due to it's length, will not be on the 8tracks playlist so remember the post and come here to listen.

Wednesday, September 11, 2013

Plan B - She Said


Well, I don't know if should follow up Awol with this guy but it is a great song.

Tuesday, September 10, 2013

AWOL One & Daddy Kev - Rhythm



This has got to be one of the best beats of all time. Awol One KILLS IT!
Such a sick flow!

Wednesday, September 4, 2013

Fela Kuti - Expensive Shit


The King of Afro Beat.
Fela Kuti is a legend and to pick one of his songs was next to impossible, but here you go, job done!

Tuesday, September 3, 2013

Cults - Go Outside (The 2 Bears Remix)



This is the first song I found by these guys and it's started a love affair.
I love their album, it's light and feels a little like it's inspired by the 50's.
Here's the original....I think I prefer it.



Thursday, August 29, 2013

Wednesday, August 28, 2013

Pogues-Dirty Old Town

I love the attitude in Shane McGowan's voice. This guy's a legend!

Friday, August 23, 2013

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - Give It Away

Blood Sugar Sex Magik is still an amazing album!  Timeless is a good way to sum it up!

Check out Walkabout as well. Highly recommended by Celine.

Tuesday, August 20, 2013

Monday, August 19, 2013

Black Sabbath - Children of the Grave

This song was the birth of Heavy! Iommi is a GOD!!
Love the video but hit play on the 8tracks player for better quality.

Sunday, August 18, 2013

Camille -Waves

You might just hear that almost all the music in the background is Camille's voice. This is one talented woman!

Saturday, August 17, 2013

TV on the Radio - Wolf Like Me



Damn I love this song. I was planning to post something else and it just showed up and totally took over. Must be fate!

Wednesday, August 14, 2013

Grimes - Genesis

I love this song but that has got to be one of the weirdest videos I've ever seen....LSD maybe?

Emilie Simon-Fleur de Saison



As far as french music goes I'm not a huge fan but this song gets me stoked. The video is pretty cool to. Enjoy!

Saturday, August 10, 2013

Rancid-Ruby Soho


I have listened to Rancid since before they were even Rancid and I love everything these guys do. Solo projects and almost everything Tim Armstrong is producing these days.
I have to dedicate this song to my Dad because through my punk and metal years my parents were subjected to A LOT of crazy music. This one just so happened to be my Dad's favorite.

Friday, August 9, 2013

Tom Thum-Wildfire Feat. Hanna Mack (MKO)


Well, this is Tom Thum. This guy has amazing talent! Not only that this woman's voice is sublime. This is a remake of SBTRKT's classic "Wildfire". I've watched his TEDtalk and it's totally worth it so I've posted it as well.
This is raw talent and I'm very happy to share his gift with you. Now go and check out his other stuff!!!
Unfortunately it will not be on the playlist until I can find somewhere to buy it.

Sell Your Soul by Kill Cheerleader



A great but unfortunately defunct Canadian band. I love everything I've found by these guys. We all need a little f*ck it all rock n roll sometimes. Get out the Whiskey!!!

Tuesday, August 6, 2013

Video playlist is up!

Check out the new Youtube playlist directly on the site! No more waiting for your favorite songs to play through on 8tracks! Just scroll to the bottom of the page and pick your favorite videos to play!

One Love Nas & MF Doom



This song just popped out at me today from my iPod. I've got stuff on there that I've never even heard. Love it! This beat really got me in a good mood. Hope it does the same for you.

Monday, August 5, 2013

Jurassic 5 - Swing Set (Video clip)


One of my favorite J5 songs! I couldn't find a real video of the song so this will have to do.
Get Swinging!

Sunday, August 4, 2013

Explosions in the Sky - The Birth and Death of the Day (fireworks, 2012)



I find it amazing just to what extent music can make us feel. These guys are masters at evoking feeling. When I listen to Explosions in the Sky it's with headphones and closed eyes. I can really visualize the music and it always fills me with a sense of wonder. I prefer no video for this song but seeing as I've started a format on this site, this video does the song a small justice.
The rest of this album is just as powerful and moving I suggest finding it and buying it. It's a staple in our house.

Saturday, August 3, 2013

The Hillbilly Moon Explosion - "Maniac Lover" (Director's...



Believe it or not this is the official video. Its a "do it in one go" kinda thing. I think it gives a great idea of what these guys are like in concert. Had a great time when I saw them in Sierre.
There's the recording on the 8tracks playlist on the top left hand side your screen or here http://8tracks.com/jcorn/yelling-s-track-of-the-day

"Going up the Country" - Canned Heat / WOODSTOCK '69


Had to post the woodstock version of this song to really capture the era.
I think this was probably one of the best times to be alive and it's a shame I wasn't there.

The Smalls- My Dear Little Angle



A great Canadian Band from Edmonton Alberta, the town I was born in.  The Smalls killed the indie scene in western Canada with no help at all from big labels and industry.  There was even a riot in the town I grew up in during one of their shows leading to some serious police brutality.
They never failed to put on an amazing show and the time I had the pleasure to see them live was no different. Amazing!!!

Four Tet - She Moves She (2003)



I really like this song. Not 100% sold on the distortion but I think it tells a story of just how fragile and delicate "she" is......or maybe "she's" just dangerous.

Saturday, July 27, 2013

Preservation Hall Jazz Band - That's It! (Live on KEXP)



Epic!!!!
The song is not available in Switzerland yet so it won't be on the playlist for a while.

Friday, July 26, 2013

Down in Mexico by The Coasters



This one is for Celine. I know you love this song! Love you Baby.
I didn't really realize until I did a little searching, that I've been listening to these guys all my life.
"Yakety Yak", "Love Potion Number 9" are just two and there were plenty more. Amazing!

Thursday, July 25, 2013

IRON BUTTERFLY - IN A GADDA DA VIDA - 1968 (ORIGINAL FULL VERSION) CD SO...



This has got to be one of the most epic rock songs of all time and here it is in it's full entirety! All 17min of it! This one song far surpasses the musical talent in over 90% of what released these days.
I had to post the video of the 17 min version although for the 8tracks playlist I've posted the 3 min version.

Wednesday, July 24, 2013

The Misfits - Hatebreeders



Ok this has got to be my Favorite punk group of all time. This song probably isn't one of their best and surely not this recording. For a better quality hit the play button on the 8tracks player and listen through the playlist.
Hatebreed has credited their name to this Misfits song and has done a pretty good cover of the song. I'll post both versions and let you decide.

Tuesday, July 23, 2013

Traveling Wilburys - Tweeter And The Monkey Man



This is an amazing song apparently paying homage to Bruce Springsteen. There was a cover done by the Headstones in the 90's. Check out the other version, sorry for the quality of the video

Cinematic Orchestra-To Build A Home



On Sundays I like to post chill, reflective music. Well this sunday is no different. I'm sitting on the terrace watching my kids play around the Home that Celine and I have built and I can't help but feel a deep sense of peace when I'm looking at what we've created. This song always evokes strong feelings for almost everyone that listens to it.
Enjoy.

Weedeater-20$ Peanut




This Blog is all about opening up musical horizons, even mine. My sister sent me the link to this group today. I gotta admit that I like it, although the voice doesn't do it for me the riffs will keep me going and for this reason I've chosen an instrumental.
 Thanks Elyse! We all need a little sludge from time to time.

Samix - One More Sucka



This song is off of Josh Martinez's album Midriff Music. A fellow Canadian with a super smooth style. This song doesn't show him any justice but I love the ambiance Samix has created. I'll post a Josh Martinez song in a week or so.

Devendra Banhart 'Little Yellow Spider'


Saw Devendra last night at the Montreux Jazz Festival, and it was amazing. This is my favorite song of his.

Marlena Shaw - Woman of the Ghetto (Flume's Jackin House Mix)



This song is off the new Verve disc. Verve specializes in old 50's jazz recordings remixed by current DJ's.
The perfect song for a sunday or even a house party. Can't wait to listen to the whole disc.

Saturday, July 13, 2013

Grade - Second Chance At First Place

Keeping with the punk trend for a day or two.  This group has been with me and my sisters for over 15 years. This song is off their most "mainstream" album but I think it's probably their best.

Friday, July 12, 2013

Choking Victim-War Story


Sorry for the video its the best quality sound I could find, go watch it on youtube. Even better listen to the track on my 8tracks playlist.

I love Punk. The aggression, distaste for any social establishment and basic disregard for any form of authority. I love the fact that there is no precision, musically, lyrically. It seems so pure to me.
I don't remember where I found these guys but I guess it doesn't matter, I re-found them today and it fit perfectly for my mood.
Check out some of their songs off the same album, like "500 channels". The earlier songs on the disc are less aggressive and more ska based.

Thursday, July 11, 2013

Nirvana - Very Ape



I could listen to Nirvana over and over again. It got me through my adolescence and feels like it hasn't aged a day. Thanks Kurt!

System Of A Down - Spiders



Their first album is by far the best, in my opinion, and this has to be the best song.
Daron Malakian guitar riffs are amazing and apparently....no effects pedals...impressive!

Screamin Jay Hawkins-I Put A Spell On You (1956)
What a way to start a music blog. This guy must have made people freak out back in the fifties. I've posted the best video first but I've got to say that the original recording is my favourite.
