Ok Go: WTF? 12/2/2009

Lovely new music video from Ok Go, album to be released 1/12!

UPDATE 1/19:
This album is really great! It sounds very mature, not quite as charts-focused as earlier ones. Nice progression. Buy it now on iTunes or Amazon. Here's a review.

Drum & Bass 9/20/2009

My man Inkee in Chicago has posted a righteous old-school IDM-style drum & bass mix -- really takes you back. Or me, at least! To underground bars and windswept avenues.

If you like to rock, and aren't afraid of a little a lot of confetti, you should go check out Ok Go at one of their upcoming shows. I went to one last night in Williamsburg, and it was a pretty much a blast. They're huge now. I mean they won a Grammy, after all.

I miss the days though that they did audience-picks-the-cover at the start of the show. In honor of that...

The Cool Kids: Black Mags 9/15/2008

This song makes me wish I had a bike. (Also that I lived in a city where you could pedal slowly down the street without getting run over by a taxi.) If there were a Modes of Transport Mix, this would definitely be on it.

A Dyno with black mag wheels. Not three-point ones, but you get the idea.

Ok Go is getting a great response to their kickass backyard dancing video mentioned below (and pictured above). Watch it.  Watch it NOW!

Incidentally, the editors are just about as excited as they can get about the forthcoming album by Ok Go.  The forthcoming album which comes out in four short days.

Ok Go Backyard Dancing 7/28/2005

okgo Great new song & 'backyard dancing' video on their website.

Notably, this is the first music video Ok Go (or any other Capitol Records band I've seen) has released encoded with QuickTime.

Why's that important?  Well, it means you can make an mp3 out of it.

  • Download it (right-click this link and 'save target as...'),
  • drag it into iTunes, and
  • hit 'Convert Selection to mp3.'

Update 8/10/2005 You snooze, you lose.  You don't read this blog on time, well, you sort of lose.  Or maybe not.  ANYWAY: their homepage is different now.

Update 8/17/2005 The QuickTime is back, and IN EVEN HIGHER RESOLUTION.  Take advantage and add this track to your library.  Now.  That's a direct order.
