SEBASTOPOL 18

The jury's still out on whether I'm alive. If the many-worlds interpretation of quantum physics is true, there exists an alternate world where I am dead that is no less real than the one I am experiencing. The mind-body problem has been tripping my shit out. At least in this Quantum State (sequel to Garden State?) I live to mix another Sebastopol Mixtape. Featured are new tunes from Tan Dollar, Atlas Sound, and Stay Cool Forever, along with choice cuts of garage rock from Auckland, NZ circa 1966.

new music: deathbomb arc comp 2010

Remember a while back I posted a new Tan Dollar track? That song is appearing on a sweet new compilation from the homies at Deathbomb Arc alongside new shit from some bands we really like.





Should you scope out the player above, you might hear some chill tunes from Run DMT, Kiss Kiss Fantastic, and Girls in the Eighties. You can stream the comp all you want, but if you're fixing to listen to this thing on your iPod, you gotttagivealittletogetalittle over at the Deathbomb Arc Bandcamp.

And don't forget, you can get this song for free too...

free local show thursday in pomona

a new challenger appears

new song: tan dollar - heaven

I might not know the homies Tan Dollar, per se. But I had a cig with them outside of an Acrobatics Everyday show and I went to the record release show for their first album Your Body as a Temple, so I think it's safe to say we're practically BFFs.



They posted their newest track "Heaven" over on their blog a couple weeks ago and it's a doozy of a three-note key-powered bliss-out. Dudes tell me it's going to show up on an upcoming comp from Deathbomb Arc (this one?).

Also: Tan Dollar will be coming out to Pomona at the end of the month to play a show with all-around awesome guys / my favorite band / my good homies Stay Cool Forever. I'm not exaggerating--this shit will be THE FUTURE OF TUNES.
