Have y'all cashed in your points yet? Are you just going to let them rollover into next year and then go on a hella-point-spree? I was kind of hoping for side-stage access but it's looking, pretty much, unattainable at this point. Let me re-phrase that, it's a lot more work than I am willing to put forth on the eve of the festival. Who are you most excited to see? I'm psyched...

So, this weekend I made a Spotify playlist featuring all of the bands who were initially announced to play after-shows. Then, yesterday the official after-show schedule came out and a band or two who was on the first list was no where to be found. One such band is, Brooklyn group, Widowspeak . I purchased their LP at End of an Ear after listening to it whilst making that playlist and I...

By now, you should have seen that I have created Spotify playlists for the Blue , Orange and Black stages. Well, just like the festival itself, I have now extended the fun with a playlist featuring the artists playing FunFunFun Fest Nites . Or, you can spend an 8 hour work day listening to all 4 playlists combined on my FunFunFun6 Complete playlists. That one is, literally, just the...

Like most of you, I was very excited about today's FunFunFun Fest Nites revelation. I mean, how can you argue with even more concert? As I combed through the list of bands performing the after-shows, I was particularly excited to see that Chapter 24 are scheduled to play! Chapter 24 are based in London and last I heard they still don't have a distribution here in the U.S.. I was...

I'm guilty of it too, with blog/hipster/internet culture we completely devour media within weeks and then we spit it out, whip our dicks out and pee all over its remains. I feel like this has become the fate of Passion Pit . We all loved them at SXSW 2009, Chunk of Change was the fucking bomb-diggity, then Manners came out and your little sister was all about Sleepyhead and the...

Am I the only who who was disappointed to realize that YACHT has nothing to do with Loggins and Messina ? I was really hoping to hear a live rendition of Pooh Corner . On a brighter note, YACHT is fucking awesome and their latest LP, Shangri-La is a jittery, over-caffeinated masterpiece of indie-dance music. YACHT - Utopia & Dystopia (The Earth is on Fire)...

Radiohead - Separator Four Tet remix video via YouTube See, the deal is Radiohead commissioned lots of artists to do remixes of their latest LP, The King of Limbs and they've been releasing...

So, I'm not well-versed on the aggressive music of the FunFunFun Black Stage but I don't want to discriminate either. Also, I had all kinds of people (1 person) request that I make a Spotify playlist for the Black stage too. So, black by popular demand (1 person) I have done as requested, here is a playlist I made featuring 32 artists playing the FFF Black Stage . The local bands:...
