The Wallies - At the Fair

Hello everyone!

Just let me know if these guys are doing or not an awesome sound? Their last EP called "Cream" is from July 2012. So make way for The Wallies:

Cheers!

Apollo 440 - "Love Is Evil"

Enjoy.

Destroy

I love Prince Rama, and this single from their forthcoming concept album is super.

It was nice to be back at the Velvet after a long vacation, but my system failed me and I didn't get to play my set, so we all missed out on cartoon dancing to this super song.
I'll try again next week, hope you can make it, and you, and you too. x

Moon Duo - Sleepwalker

Hello all,

This last week I came across this tune. The sound of Moon Duo made me remember the sound of rock bands from the 80's-90's. Awesome sound and atmosphere simply love it...

So here they are Moon Duo with "Sleepwalker":

Cheers!

Fri @ 7pm SLT - Next Level Beats

I have something really special planned for tonight. I have picked out 120 minutes of songs that I felt are fairly epic in terms of beat quality and dance quality. It's like, if I could kick your ass with just 30 songs, what would I pick? And this is what you will get. Come listen and dance. This is gonna be a good Friday.

We Trust - Time (Better Not Stop)

Hey you all, how is everyone doing?

I'm being away from SL but never stop thinking about great music to share with you here on Velvet.

The tune for this week post is one of the most amazing musics I came across last year (2011) so it could be some old for some of you guys, and can be refreshing and new for the rest of you. As I always say music is never old...

 
Take care, Cheers!

Cars, Cars and More Cars

Tonight's set is an ode to the car. From The Doors to They Might Be Giants, Johnny Cash to The Kinks, musicians have had a lot to say about cars. So car lovers - from 5 to 7 is your time tonight - at The Velvet

Velvet Sim

Sharing a lovely photo of the sim Dammi took yesterday.

Saturday, 5-7SLT

In my tonight’s set on the day of our sim opening, I’ll revisit some of my favorite musical moments of 2012, mainly of the deliciously dark variety. As a little preview, here’s something from a duo whose sound has been characterized as “at once funereal and exhilaratingly romantic”...

Tropic of Cancer “The One Left”

The Legendary Tiger Man - Radio & TV Blues

Hey guys,

For this week post I'll bring a music from a musician called Paulo Furtado, who's solo artistic name is "The Legendary Tiger Man". This guy not only have his own solo project, but he also works in a band project called Wraygunn (which I should post in a future post perhaps, I really should!), and he still works helping another musicians on their own projects. This guy really enjoys what he does and really have passion for music and art, and he is giving us a great collection of wonderful tunes. So let's hear the man...

Monday Night Miscellany from a Very, Very Complex Person

I can't say I have any organizing principle or theme for tonight's set. It's a mix of pop, rock, country and folk. Great songs, fabulous voices, interesting lyrics. It's just music - without regard to genre. Voices you may hear tonight: Jack White, Feist, Regina Spektor, Loretta Lynn, Jewel, Jenny Lewis, and Justin Townes Earle with bands from Waldeck to Monsters of Folk and Morphine.


From 5 to 7 PM SLT at The Velvet

This is not a very well thought out blog as I have very little time to write it. Just a quick note to say that I'll be playing another set of rockin' indie tunes tonight. There was going to be a theme of moody songs because the week had been so tough for me, but I decided it's too soon to depress everyone. And besides, I feel like cheering myself up with my usual mix of indie goodness.

Hopefully next week, I will be a little less scattered, with a fun theme.

Micro Audio Waves - "Sunshine Sunlight"

Hello folks,

For the last two weeks I've been traveling in my vacations. Now I'm back home so now it is the time to post here for you one great tune from a band called "Micro Audio Waves":

You'll be amazed by these guys, their sound sometimes resembles "Metric".

Cheers!
