My Drive Thru

Apparently Converse has a series called Three Artists, One Song where they bring together three artists in the studio to write and record a new song. The most recent one is called "All Summer" and is a collaboration between Kid Cudi, Vampire Weekend guitarist Rostam, and Best Coast. You can download it on the Converse website, linked above. I thought it was aight. But it led me to the first song in the series, "My Drive Thru," which I really like. It's a collaboration between Santigold, Julian Casablancas (of The Strokes), N.E.R.D. and Pharrell. Check out the awesome video below!

Vampire Weekend...can Contra live up to their eponymous debut? We'll find out on January 12th. In the meantime, what do you think about this video? I can't make up my mind. The effects are cool but I think the band kinda hams it up too much. Then again, maybe I'm just hatin for the sake of it.


This collab between Beck and Charlotte Gainsbourg I am more sure I like. What a fantastically nonsensical video, and the song's good too. Oh Beck. You melt my heart.


Unfortunately I couldn't seem to find an embeddable version of the video I'm most excited about, for Yeasayer's new single 'Ambling Alp'. Check it out here.

Much music joy to look forward to in the coming months!
