Rodrigo y Gabriela soundtrack

One of my all time favorite artists is Rodrigo y Gabriela. They have one of the best backstories and fought hard for their unique artistic vision. And they make great music. They worked on the soundtrack for the latest Pirates Of The Caribbean and it is some great stuff. Pirates and RyG - how can you go wrong?

Best of 2010

Yeah, I know, it's a little ridiculous, posting my Best of 2010 in mid-May, but hey, it's been a busy time, ya know? And instead of a podcast, I've just created an 8tracks.com mix. My favorite "albums" (isn't that a quaint word these days?) from 2010 were:

• lowercase noises "Marshall"
• School of Seven Bells "Disconnect From Desire"*
• Alejandro Escovedo "Street Songs of Love"
• Broken Bells "Broken Bells"*
• Charlotte Gainsbourg "IRM"*
• Citay "Dream Get Together"
• Holy Fuck "Latin"
• Jakob Dylan "Women + Country"*
• loscil "Endless Falls"
• The National "High Violet"*
• The New Pornographers "Together"*
• Steve Mason "Boys Outside"*
• Vampire Weekend "Contra"*
• Robert Plant "Band Of Joy""

* means that I bought it on a honest-to-goodness CD even!
