Blondie & Lily Allen on the Today Show
Were you unable to wake up in the morning and you missed this performance? Watch it on MSNBC here. Lily has been covering Blondie's "Heart of Glass" and it was only fitting to bring the two together on the show for that song. For the MP3 of the performance, visit Culture Bully.

Mark Ronson's 'Version' and Justice's '†'
I know I have not posted in a long time, but I'll slowly get back on track for the summer after finals are over. The past few months has just been hectic for me I didn't have time to update. Anyway, I'll put up some of my Coachella photos when I have time, but I just wanted to post some announcements of albums that will finally arrive in the States on July 10th: Mark Ronson and Justice.
I had the chance to meet Mark Ronson right before Lily Allen's set at Coachella and compliment him on his latest album, not that my opinion would really matter. I could tell that he was a busy guy and had places to go and people to see, yet he was nice enough (though maybe a little impatient) to take time to speak to me, but I appreciate it since he didn't turn me away or anything. Some girls asked "is he famous?" Well, you'll see. I have to admit that I didn't become a huge fan until I heard both Lily Allen's and Amy Winehouse's albums. It's been over a month since Version came out in the UK and I think it's obvious by now how successful it is there. The album's release date has just been delayed until July 10th, which I'm a little disappointed by. I'm curious to see if he will be doing a lot of touring in the States. As successful as Allen and Winehouse are now, I wouldn't be surprised to see Ronson finally topping the US charts. It's about time.
Highlights: "Oh My God", "Stop Me", "Valerie"
For this next artist, I probably would have never heard of them or heard of them before Coachella if it weren't for Ronson. I don't want to call them the next Daft Punk, but they really are amazing an DJ duo from Paris, France. They hit the scene with "We Are Your Friends", and exploded with their song and video (by So Me), "D.A.N.C.E.". If you don't like them, then I don't know what the hell is wrong with you. Justice is one of the reasons I've been so interested in dance music lately, and with their debut album coming out June 11th worldwide and July 10th in the States, I hope the rest of the world will feel the same way. They were one of my highlights at this year's Coachella. Everyone has to experience them live, and if you downloaded their album since it has been leaked for awhile, I hope you will buy it when it is officially released.
Highlights: "Genesis", "D.A.N.C.E.", "The Party", "DVNO", "Waters of Nazareth"

The Fillmore
San Francisco, CA
A... M... A... Z... I... N... G... The show started off slow, and a bit late for me, but it was incredible. Thomas Dybdahl was okay, but made me sleepy at times. Perhaps I was just sleepy to begin with. I forgot how Willy Mason's sound was like so he surprised me when he let out his voice. Mason sounds even better with a full-band as the last and only time I've ever seen him before was opening for Bright Eyes. Sondre Lerche was incredible like I expected. He's so energetic and lively. It's hard not to dance to his music as he stated himself that their music is for dancing, but why are most people at the venue so boring? Most people were just standing there stiff. I tried to hold back, but I couldn't. Lerche's set goes down as one of the best sets I've ever seen playing mostly tracks from Phantom Punch, but also playing tracks like "Two Way Monologue".

Feist & KoC
I didn't even realize Eirik was on the new album.
"Indie Singer Feist Aims 'Lowbrow' with New Album"
"Indie Singer Feist Aims 'Lowbrow' with New Album"
By Jonathan Cohen Tue Mar 6, 9:21 PM ET
NEW YORK (Billboard) - Indie singer/songwriter Leslie Feist spent more than two years on the road promoting her 2004 breakthrough, "Let It Die," but the core of her upcoming set, "The Reminder," was assembled in less than a week's worth of sessions at a rented home outside Paris.
There, Feist hunkered down with her touring band, frequent collaborator Gonzales, Jamie Lidell and Dominic "Mocky" Salole to capture the "lo-fi, lowbrow sound" she had been hearing in her head for months.
"Something that was new for me was trying not to use headphones," she told Billboard.com Tuesday over breakfast in New York. "We tried to do as few overdubs as possible. We'd do what we'd call 'town hall,' which was everybody around one mic singing all at once. I wanted it to sound a bit like a congregation."
"The Reminder" includes two songs ("Intuition" and "Honey Honey") that date back to the "Let It Die" sessions, as well as a Ron Sexsmith co-write ("Brandy Alexander") that took shape in unusual fashion.
Feist recalls, "I said, 'I have these words. What do you think?' He said, 'I think have a melody, but I don't have any way to record it.' About six months later, he came to one of my shows in Los Angeles and he said, 'Remember those lyrics you sent?' He played the melody on a guitar but I had no way to record him either. I just remembered it. Six months or so after that, once I was in the studio, I told Gonzo, I remember the melody but I don't remember what chords he was playing. So we recorded the song and I sent it to Ron to ask him, 'Is this kind of what your melody was?' He was like, 'Ooh, uh, OK!"'
With "The Reminder" ready to be unleashed April 23 internationally via Arts & Crafts and May 1 in the U.S. via Cherrytree/Interscope, Feist has four months of road work in front of her. She begins in Europe in April, moving west to east in Canada in May and then in the opposite direction in the States in June. The artist is also shooting videos for first single "My Moon My Man" and "1 2 3 4" this month with director Patrick Daughters.
But first up is a long-anticipated vacation in Mexico with Kings Of Convenience members Erlend Oye and Eirik Glambek Boe, the latter of whom sings on the new album's final cut, "How My Heart Behaves." "I have this one week off in the next four months," Feist says. "Maybe we'll write a whole album. Because we don't have to, we probably will."

To Of Montreal: I'm Sorry For Almost Running Away With Your Monkey
They may hate me, but I still love them.
So one of the members thought I was trying to steal their monkey, gave me the death stare, and was about to beat me down. Well, it's not like they did us a favor like we thought they would. Besides that problem, Of Montreal was incredible live and so fun to watch. Better than I expected, although I knew they were going to be great. And there was a pretty good crowd too. I was praying that they would play "Pancakes for One", but I knew I was just getting my hopes up. They played mostly tracks from their latest album Hissing Fauna, Are You The Destroyer?, but also performed a few songs from The Sunlandic Twins as well as a Bowie cover. What was the title of the song? I don't know. Kevin Barnes went through three different costume changes. I have to say the ladder idea was brilliant. I absolutely love their music and live performances, but I don't know anything about them as people really. You have to see Of Montreal live at least once in your lifetime.
(Pictures coming soon)
