My Blogboard Top 5

My musical tastes at the moment, let me share them with you:

1. Don't You Evah by Spoon
2. Volver a Comenzar by Café Tacvba
3. En Cada Lugar by Frederico Aubere (mp3)
4. The Salmon Dance by The Chemical Brothers (not the remix)
5. Running Away by The Polyphonic Spree

And, finally, in honor of the rain forecast for L.A. tomorrow (the first in months!), Loudon Wainwright III's Grey in L.A.

What's cool is that you can listen to all of these (for the time being) on myspace.

There's also a mesmerizing song they've been playing on KCRW the last week or so that I really like. One of those hybrid, jazz-sampled, dub-mix sort of things where the title doesn't necessarily have any relation to the lyrics and the band could be from London, Sweden, or Van Nuys. I tried to track it down on the KCRW playlists. I suspect that it's Sugar Mama by Bitter:Sweet, but I haven't been able to find the song online to confirm. But I'll look out for the name next time I hear it.

Update: just heard it around 9:10pm on KCRW. Not Bitter:Sweet. But Trolle//Siebenhaar – Sweet Dogs (unremixed version on myspace page.)
