Words about music (843): Paul Weller
The only time I ever really got into rap was back in the early '90s, and bands like A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, Gang Starr. Musically, they were really interesting. But when hip-hop acts start sampling Sting or Phil Collins, then I just don't get it at all.

Efro: Run Too The Sun
Indie musician Efro can't get away from the lo-fi sound of the Athens, GA, underground. Now based in Berlin via Brighton, the new single Run Too The Sun has all the trappings of the surf-tinged slacker rock, heavily leaning on the softer side of vintage garage bands. It is a yearning for the halcyon days that were never real, but it doesn't hurt to daydream a bit.
Taxi Girls: "Midnight Mixtape" video
Taxi Girls have made a video for Midnight Mixtape, a track from their Static album: "Imagine Blondie having a rowdy sleepover with The Hives and The Shirts. Whatever bad things the universe may have in store for them, they are ready to face them head on, armed with the holy trinity of rock 'n' roll instruments. As Lou Reed once wrote: you can't beat guitar, bass and drums."
