Recommendation Engine

1. Really cool song from Bloc Party that was recommended to me by a friend. (Sorry, can't remember which one, otherwise he/she would get a shoutout.) Thanks to Anita K. for the recommendation. Very unlike any other song on last year's Intimacy. And I just found out it was recently featured on an episode of Gossip Girl. (Whack.) Check out the song below. (Again, imeem registration required, but it's FREE.)

Bloc Party - Signs



2. Below, a song from The Veronicas that I heard during a recent trip with some friends. Alright lyrics, really good beat. Can't help nodding your head along. Thanks Shalin P. for the recommendation.

The Veronicas - Untouched



3. And finally, Slate recently recommended The Rub: "the History of Hip-Hop megamixes by the DJ crew the Rub - a downloadable encyclopedia of practically every great song from the genre's first two decades." Check out 1999.

The Rub - 1999

Ay, there's the rub. (Sorry, couldn't help it.)
