Wild Nothing




Dear Wild Nothing,

I'm writing to tell you that I love you. There is something about your music that makes me warm inside. It makes me want to smile, cry, dance and have adventurous romances.
It reminds me of why I fell in love with music when I was 14. It reminds me of listening to The Bats in college and reassures me that there is reason to be excited about new records. Yes, RECORDS, not singles, remixes, etc.

The fact that you cover Kate Bush & Fleetwood Mac make me love you even more.

Hope to see you live soon.

Thanks for everything,
Andy Pants!

The new Gayngs record is really, really good. Stream and buy it here: http://gayngs.net/

Someone called it a guilty pleasure listen but, I don't feel guilty at all. In fact, it's the perfect soundtrack to my life right now. AND they cover a great track by Godley and Creme with an ahead of its time video to match (1985).

Lonnie Liston Smith- Expansions

I guess I'm feeling pretty uninspired by most contemporary music these days. I used to hate when people said that but now, I get it. Most shit has been done. Some of it lasts, most of it doesn't.

A great comment on this youtube post reads: "Back in the days if a Club did not play this it was not a real Club and that's the truth." I want to go to the Club that is still playing this track.
