Beirut

A co-worker asked if I had ever heard of Beirut yesterday. I said I didn't think so.

So today I look him and his band up on youtube. I listened to the song Elephant Gun for about 8 seconds before I decided I was in love....

Here is another song with an awesome video. They are making music on the street.

8tracks

I just discovered 8tracks!!! It's a bunch of random mixes that people create. It's a sweet idea because sometimes I don't know what I want to listen to... but with titles like "Music to wake up to", "Music to stare at your ceiling to", and plenty more I can always find what I'm looking for. It's also cool because it introduces you to new music.

So check it out! It's free!
