The Seed - Big Band Swing

So I'm not actually sure if this artist's stage name is really The Seed, it could be Dirty Boys Radio, because that is the YouTube account this video was uploaded on. In any case I found this gem after digging threw a couple pages of Reddit.

Now I can understand if you just really don't dig hip-hop or rap. If this is the case then this post just isn't for you, but I try to make posts about all independent music so that means even artists like The Seed. That disclaimer out of the way, I really like this. I'm not a huge fan of any of the popular rappers or hip-hop artists out today, I can tolerate Lupe Fiasco but that's really it. When I listen to The Seed he kind of reminds me of The Roots. Hopefully you will enjoy this and hope your day is going well!

Lower Dens - Brains

Man, waking up at like 2 in the afternoon sure doesn't give me a lot of time to think of great ideas for posts to this blog. But I don't think you guys will be disappointed, today's post is both a music post and a news post. I know! Two for the price of one and you aren't even paying for one because this is a free blog! You're welcome.

This is Lower Dens, and they are currently on tour. If you dig this song you should definitely check them out and support them. Hell, even just listening to their music on something like Spotify is supporting them cause they always talk about how it gets the artists money. But I personally hate Spotify with a passion so I'll stick to just buying my music. Anyway if you are interested in where Lower Dens is touring, you can check it out below.

Work Drugs - Rolling in the Deep (Cover)

Remember the whole Adele craze a while a go? Or is it still going on? Either way a while ago before I had started this blog I frequented the blog Newdust and they made a post in like August of last year about this cover of Rolling in the Deep by Adele and ever since then I have wanted to share it with people. So here it is! It took a long time to find again but I think it's worth it.


It's such a good cover. To be honest with you guys Adele isn't really my jam. Don't get me wrong, she's not bad, and whenever I'm in the car with my mom she insists on either playing Adele or Snow Patrol but it was nothing that I was really too crazy about. This though, is really awesome. Work Drugs have done such a groovy job turning this song into something new.
