new music monday… on Wednesday!
Hustle by Tunng
this song is awesome - folky, pop, goodness from across the pond. cool thing is, i found this song while looking up Bloc Party remixes. based on this song (which i was digging for training on the bike), i assumed Tunng was a techno/dance group… i was waaayyyyy off. enjoy.
Rainbow Country by Bob Marley
I can’t refuse it/ What got to be, got to be
Feel like dancing/ Dance cause we are free
I’m posting this song for 2 reasons…
1. I just finished the Hyannis Sprint Triathlon, 39th out of 900+ racers and I feel pretty good, so I put Bob Marley on shuffle. This is the first song that played and I sure do feel like dancing.
2. More importantly, today’s 9/11 and I was proud to share in the national anthem before the race. The USA ain’t perfect, but I still “Feel like dancing/ Dance cause we are free.”
Enjoy.
Here’s to Now by Ugly Casanova
This song is from the soundtrack to the documentary 180 South: Conquerers of the Useless (big thank you to Matt for the recommendation). The film is beautiful and inspiring - I’ll write more later.
For anyone who thinks “this sounds like Modest Mouse,” click through on the link above to read about the engimatic Isaac Brock who is the engine behind the sound.
For anyone who doesn’t know Modest Mouse, “get the net!”

Harry and Bess by Ferraby Lionheart [@F_Lionheart]
great cruise-y track. feels like sunshine, despite all the rain. i’m uploading the song AND embedding the video featuring @RainnWilson because it is great.
p.s. - you can download the track from AmieStreet for $Free.99 here.
Right On (featuring Joanna Newsom) by The Roots
i’ve been a fan of Joanna Newsom for a long time. very cool to hear her being sampled here.
p.s. - PTM predicted I would post a song from the new Roots album and he was absolutely right.
[if you want this song but you suck at computer (sic), ask for it in the comments and i’ll send it to you].
