Ecomog x Ratat

I don't usually post mash-up/remix albums, but these guys are pretty solid.
I'd call anyone solid if they're insane enough to want to advertise on a blog named Cocks

but free advertising is the best, so

it's all name-your-price on bandcamp, so I'm not gonna be uploading these for you guys

these two albums are pretty much just your usual semi-conscious rapping over a Ratatat album

http://ecomog.bandcamp.com/album/classics-revisited

here's Classics,

http://ecomog.bandcamp.com/album/birds-of-a-feather

and their newest, Birds of a Feather. the first half had me really excited. this is pretty much the best way they could have done this.
remember kids, hip-hop skits are always terrible.

The Notwist - Shrink

So, The Notwist. You might know Neon Golden. If you don't, get that too! The Notwist is good! Check it like a wrecking ball, homies. If you're unsure of whether you'd like this, check out "Day 7" off this album. It's very good alternative rock.

Get it.

Brad Sucks - The One Man Band with No Fans

This is Brad. In my opinion, he doesn't suck. Overall, he's a cool guy.

He hands out most of his music for free, and loves it when people remix his songs. He's been sending out his music since 2001. And, through that, he gained a bit of a following. It didn't take long until his music was played on some radio stations (I'm guessing mostly campus radio, but apparently a few commercial ones as well.) With that money and a little bit more he let out two CD's.

So, Brad Sucks.

These songs he writes are pretty good. They will remind you of Beck. They will.

He's got a pretty definite sound. Kind of whiney, but I enjoy it. The songs are lax, and a little depressing, but energizing at the same time.

There is only one problem I have with his musics. It's the life of the songs. They get old fast. Luckily, he's got quite a few songs out. Definitely don't sit and listen to his CD a few times in a row. You'll want to kill yourself. Trust me, I know these things.

My suggestions are "Dropping out of School." and "Dirtbag." Also, "Fake It" as a back up.

Get it.

(thesixtyone is pretty fantastic and free, so gogogogo.)
