Loudloop never fails at bringing out the best that Chicago’s indie scene has to offer. Here’s one they threw up today from Campfires titled “Dusty Mansion”, from their forthcoming Dusty Mansions 7″.

Boddika (AKA Instra:mental) released his single, You Tell Me, today, with sexy b-side “Breezin’” on Nonplus. Certainly something to get excited over.
Before heading to Nicolas Jaar at Smartbar, first stop by Beauty Bar for Dinosaur Feathers. Show starts at 7PM with Motel Motel opening.

Anja Schneider and And.Id‘s “Imagination”, created for Heidi’s “Jackathon” Mix CD. Coming out soon on Get Physical. Check out Anja’s Fabric Mix, too. You certainly don’t want to miss that one.

A new song from Friendly Fires emerged the other day. It’s a first look at their forthcoming release, Pala, out this May on XL Recordings, just two weeks before their appearance at Lincoln Hall.

Rollo & Grady turned me on to this one. It’s King Tuff‘s “Kind Of Guy”, off of Was Dead- a push in the right direction for West Coast kids this weekend. Tonight they play Five Stars Bar in LA, tomorrow, San Francisco.
Burial’s “Stolen Dog”

The time’s come for the Nicolas Jaar ticket giveaway for the Smartbar gig. I don’t think he needs an introduction in these parts by now. The show’s on March 25th with Orchard Lounge, so you have one week to enter, and the winner will be selected at random. I am very excited for this one.
Ticket Giveaway: Enter the drawing!

Snoozed on that Uproot Andy XLR8R Podcast. Foolish thing. If you ain’t familiar with ‘Andy‘s stuff, here’s a little flavor for ya. The guy’s busy planting palmtrees in Brooklyn, and I can’t get enough. Ay yai yai!

This Saturday, MiM is bringing us Pets Gone Wild, featuring Catz N Dogz (Mothership/ Get Physical), Tanner Ross (Wolf+Lamb/ No.19), Ari Frank vs Daniel Andres and Savile. Insanity. Previous gigs included No Regular Play, Slow Hands & Will Saul. The location’s TBA, but I have a good idea where it’ll be..
RSVP: Pets Gone Wild: Catz N Dogz @ TBA (do it.)
