Giving the new Broken Bells' album a full listen today. Loving what I hear so far, esp. The High Road, The Ghost Inside, October. If you didn't read my previous post about them, this is a collaboration between Danger Mouse (most famous for being half of Gnarls Barkley) and The Shins' James Mercer. Check out this great review here.

Holly Miranda, Tegan & Sara Videos from show @ Variety Playhouse, Atlanta
If you recall, I blogged a while ago about Tegan & Sara coming to Atlanta. Alas, I remembered a little too late and by the time I went to check for tickets, they were sold out. Bummer.
I follow Tegan & Sara on Twitter. And yesterday, as I was wrapping up for the day, I saw this Tweet come across my TweetDeck:
@theteganandsara Sold out show in Atlanta. But I have 20 tickets for tonight. Be the first 10 people to @reply and ill message u back with a pair of tickets.
I immediately replied and about 20 minutes later got this tweet back from them:
@angela_ann u r on the list + 1. Variety Play House. Pick the tickets up with ID at the door by 8pm or they'll sell the tickets! ENJOY!
SWEET! Looks like the wifey and I were on for an unexpected date night. After a lil sushi, we headed to the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta. (Which has amazing acoustics!!!)
This was one of the opening bands, Holly Miranda. I have to say, I was super impressed them. This is an impromptu song that they had just rehearsed in sound check. Man! They are great.
Everyone was super excited for T+S to come out on stage...I love the excitement of a crowd when the act comes out. Here's what happened last night:
Anyway, you can click to check out the rest of the videos I posted of the following songs:
Finally, they did an acoustic version of the Feel It in My Bones, which is the song they did with Tiesto. The Tiesto track was in the same blog post a couple months back. This is an acoustic version of it and is delightful. This was part of their encore.
Great night overall.
p.s. I'm over my Flip HD Ultra. Cannot handle darkness as you can see. I'm ready for a new vidcam. Suggestions anyone????

Crazy week = best release : Tryst this Friday!!!
Man! This week has been crazy at work. The good news is there is work. The bad news is there's a lot to be done in a short time. HOWEVER, a busy week makes for a really great weekend. I am so looking forward to releasing some gems on y'all at Tryst this Friday. (Bellissima, Midtown, 10:30p)
I'll be spinning some badass new tracks. This Karin Park remix is A-mazing. I can't wait to play it...who knows, I might just play it over and over and over again....hehe.
Groove Armada ('member them? I see you baby....) have a new track out called, Paper Romance. And it's been remixed by some great producers already. Got a great Urchins remix I will share with you.
Plus there is so much more to share with y'all.

For all you producers...the VST for Heads Will Roll discovered!
I just peeped this on A-Trak's blog, DJ U-Tern from Vancouver came across the VST that actually is the source (without any editing or effects) of the main synth/string line in the YYYs Heads Will Roll. This is where the defining sound of that song comes from. Interesting. I'm sure a bunch of producers will now try to replicate it. But just shows the power of all these plug-ins to enable artists to create original music. I love it!!!
