I was digging through some of my old CDs yesterday. Sometimes I shutter at the type of music I purchased 6 or 7 years ago, but I like to think most people look back at themselves from 7 years ago and just laugh too. What I was surprised to find during the mindless filing of old music was The Album Leaf. I had completely forgotten about how fun and relaxing this band was. If I ever needed to mindlessly get lost in some music while cleaning or just laying down, this band was perfect for that. The Album Leaf is a band that uses a lot of rhodes piano and synthesizer, but they do it in a way that leaves you in an harmonious trance. Created by Jimmy LaValle, The Album Leaf is filled with wonderful, melodic loops that leave you tantalized in the synthesizers. Their music was really good when I first listened to them, and after all these years, it still is. Give them a listen. You can purchase their stuff here...

The San Diego Music Awards

Like 70's italian horror soundtracks? Then you will love the San Diego Music Awards!! Not sure when this band will come out with anything concrete, like a CD or anything, but they sound awesome! The band got into some legal trouble in 2011 and had to change their name because they are using the same name as The San Diego Music Awards, which is a real San Diego awards ceremony held every year. Ironically, one of the members is Rob Crow (Thingy, Heavy Vegetable, and Pinback) who is nominated for best album of the year from the San Diego Music Awards.  Their music reminds me of Dario Argento movies, like Suspiria, and any other Italian horror film. Give it a listen! I do not own rights to this video.
