Song of the day – 606: Nia
She passes the Agent Ribbons test, and that’s all you really need to know.
Song of the day – 605: Gravel Samwidge
I know who this sounds like. You think that bothers me? You crazy, girl. Why would that bother me?
Song of the day – 604: Jenny Hval
I have Dayna Evans to thank for turning me on to this, just about the sexiest video I’ve seen in years.
Song of the day – 603: Les Morts Vont Bien
The most glorious locked Teutonic groove since the first album from Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft. Blam!
Song of the day – 602: Janelle Monáe

Song of the day – 600: Kanye West

Song of the day – 599: Secret Valley

Song of the day – 598: Dogtower
Sleater-Kinney with a sense of humour but no loss of girl-girl power
Song of the day – 597: Pins
Music like Pins comes dressed in layers. It’s chilly out there: chilly and unwelcoming, and we all need some form of uniform against the furnace of cold and disinterest.
Song of the day – 596: The Boy Least Likely To and Gwenno
I’m very pleased to hear that The Boy Least Likely To is still making music as lovable and cuddly as ever.
