Song of the Day - Lucidity

Tame Impala - Lucidity

Album: Innerspeaker (2010)

I'm running late for work, but must post a song of the day! Continuing with our 'Australian Only' theme it's Tame Impala, another fantastic Aussie band from the West Coast who have been gaining a ton of recognition at home and overseas. The band took out the J Award for Album of the Year in 2010 and are rumoured to be ready to release another album this year to build off all of their recent success. Will 2011 be the year of Tame Impala?

Help!



Help get me on Channel [V]!



 



Just a quick reminder that I'm entered into Channel [V]'s B430 blogger search and I need your votes!! Many thanks to those that have already taken the time to vote for me, I really appreciate it. Now I'm going to plagiarise (from myself, for the second time) and post my original and amazingly helpful instructions on how to vote for me...



I've never been that good at pimping myself out... but I'm going to attempt a little somethin' somethin' right here, right now. If you're a fan of my "work" here, I could use a small favour. Channel [V] Australia is looking for bloggers for their B430 program and I want to be one of them! So, how can you help me out? By voting for me! There are a couple of things you'll need in advance; 1. a facebook account and 2. access to a valid Australian telephone number and address. If you're outside Australia, coming up with these should be a fun experience (but I'd really appreciate your time and effort).


You'll need to go to Channel [V] Australia's facebook page which is, http://www.facebook.com/#!/vmusic.com.au  Once you've liked it, you need to go into the B430 section which is up the top next to where it says Wall, Info, Photos and all that jazz. You then need to add the Channel [V] Global Animal application. Once you've added it, head down to 'Vote For My Friends' and you can find me in search under Matthew (not Matt!). I'm the sexy beast sitting on the tiger giving the smirkiest of smirks. Then you can vote for me and I will love you forever. You know what, I'll add the picture above, so you know EXACTLY which one it is (enjoy!).


You can help out even more by getting your friends (and family, co-workers, acquaintances, strangers you encounter on the street etc.) to vote for me too! Sorry for the hassle, but this is something that I would really, really like to do and it would help turn the labour of love that is It's My Kind of Scene into something a bit more meaningful. Thanks for reading and more importantly, thanks for voting!

Try Not To Hold It Against Her...



When I grow up, I wanna be Ke$ha!


 



Producers, Max Martin and Dr Luke, have dropped the demo for new Britney Spears track, 'Hold It Against Me.' Don't worry, Brit's vocals haven't dropped a couple of octaves, it's not even her singing. Perhaps someone should tell her not to bother laying down her vocals at all, for the track seems like it would be more suited to someone like Ke$ha. Not even someone like Ke$ha. Just Ke$ha. 'Hold It Against Me' is essentially 'Take It Off' part 2. Maybe I'm being a bit harsh. Afterall, the track hasn't been mastered yet and Britney hasn't brought her, um, magic (?) to it yet... so let's wait and see.


What's your initial reaction to the demo? Yay or nay?

Song of the Day - Summarize

Little Birdy - Summarize

Album: Confetti (2009)

Another day, another great Australian act for your Song of the Day, as we move from Little Red to Little Birdy. The band's gone on a hiatus after the release of third and criminally underappreciated album, Confetti, to pursue other interests, but hopefully they'll be back better than ever before you know it. Maybe Katy just wanted to do some collaborating with big brother Luke and Empire of the Sun? Maybe not.

Song of the Day - Rock It

Little Red - Rock It

Album: Midnight Remember (2010)

We've gone 'Australian Only' for Song of the Day this month and next up, it's Little Red! The band's sure to earn a place or two on this year's JJJ Hottest 100, with 'Rock It' being one song I can guarantee we'll hear at some stage as the countdown is unveiled on Australia Day. I'll admit, it took some time for the song to win me over, but it did and now I can't stop listening to it. You can expect big things from these kids over the next couple of years!
