Pick Your Poison: Thursday 7-19-12

So Drake might not be the richest hip hop star around today, as I would think Jay-Z and Kanye West have the #1 and #2 spots locked up on that, but he’s still got plenty of money. As rich people often do, they like to buy nice things. Well, Drake recently bought a new home for a cool $7.7 million. Actually, it’s not so much a home as it is a ranch. The place has been on the market since 2009, where its starting asking price was $27 million. In other words, he bought it at less than a third of what it was originally going for. This ranch includes six bedrooms, ten bathrooms, a 28-person movie theater, a gaming room, a spa and massage room, a gym, a wine cellar, a tennis court, a volleyball court, an equestrian ring, stables, and three acres of land. If I had the money I probably would have paid at least $8 million for all that. Anyways, it looks super impressive and cool, so take a look at this photo set and gaze in awe at the waterfalls, grotto and outdoor fireplaces. Man, it must be nice to be rich. Save some money, and maybe someday a house like that could be yours. A good way to keep costs down is with some free music, which Pick Your Poison is happy to provide. In today’s batch, don’t miss tracks from Arcadia Gardens, Deerhoof’s remix of AU, Cate Le Bon, The Demos, The History of Panic, The Mommyheads, and Twin Cabins. Plenty of downloads, and a tiny Soundcloud section today, though I do recommend streaming that Om Unit track, it’s good.

Pick Your Poison: Wednesday 7-18-12

So it’s come to this: Coachella is expanding onto cruise ships. Yes my friends, if you haven’t heard yet, coming this December there will be two S.S. Coachella cruises you can take – ones that will features bands and artists you’re hopefully familiar with. Both voyages launch from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida and go from either December 16-19 or December 19-23. The first goes to the Bahamas, while the second goes to Jamaica. Who will be on board these native Coachella trips? The lineup includes Pulp, Hot Chip, Yeasayer, Grimes, Cloud Nothings, Girl Talk, James Murphy, Sleigh Bells, Warpaint, !!!, Black Lips, Simian Mobile Disco, The Rapture, Father John Misty and a few more. Can you imagine Jarvis Cocker or the guys from Hot Chip hanging out by the pool? Seems a little odd to me, but what do I know. It’ll probably be a whole lot of fun. And I bet it sells out super fast too. Depending on how much you want to spend and how many people you have with you, prices can range anywhere from $500 a person to $2,000+ a person. I’m intrigued, but don’t nearly have the money to commit to it. If you want to learn more, here’s the website with all the details. Instead of spending money, have some free mp3s on me today, via Pick Your Poison. A few recommendations include tracks from Baby Baby, Bon Accord, Feature Cuts, Pomegranates, and Black Light Dinner Party.

Pick Your Poison: Wednesday 7-11-12

Trent Reznor is a very busy man. Then again, he almost always has been. Since the “end” of Nine Inch Nails a few years ago, he’s worked with Atticus Ross on the scores to two David Fincher films, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and the Oscar-winning The Social Network. He’s also started a new band with his wife, known as How to Destroy Angels. They’ve only put out one EP so far, but have recorded a full length that will be out hopefully by the end of this year. As Reznor recently said in an interview, they’re planning to release the record in an unconventional way, so that’s taking some extra time to set up. He’s also recently composed the theme song for Call of Duty: Black Ops II, which will be out this November. And though he probably won’t ever tour again, he also says he’s working on new NIN material. If you’re overwhelmed about your job, imagine how he feels. Okay, let’s talk today’s Pick Your Poison. Notable tracks in this set come from The Black Cadillacs, Cody ChesnuTT, Gabe Goodman, The Hawthorne Effect, and The Raveonettes. In the Soundcloud section, stream new stuff from Azealia Banks, Dan Deacon, Melody’s Echo Chamber, and The Walkmen doing a Rolling Stones cover.

Pitchfork Music Festival 2012: The Songs

Welcome to the start of Pitchfork Music Festival Week here at Faronheit! Starting today and going all the way through next Monday, I’ll be bringing you each and every play-by-play concerning the festival. That includes previewing the artists playing, commenting on how sets go during the fest, and a full post-mortem that includes plenty of photos. So I invite you to take this journey with me whether you’re going or not, primarily because it’s going to be a lot of fun and there’s so much great music involved. Want proof? This introductory post features music from every single artist performing this upcoming weekend. Most have mp3s for you to download, but some artists have Soundcloud streams only, because they prefer it that way. If you don’t want to download all of the songs below and like your taste testing via streaming, I’ve also assembled a Spotify playlist in which you can stream a track from (almost) every artist performing, AND it’s all carefully arranged in an order that is designed to create the most satisfying listening experience possible. Check that out if you’re so inclined. For everyone else though, feel free to take the songs posted below for a test drive to see what strikes your fancy. You might just discover your new favorite band even if you won’t be in Union Park this weekend!

Pick Your Poison: Monday 7-9-12

Welcome to a brand new week, friends. I’m going to make this introduction short and sweet today, because big things are afoot here on the site. It’s Pitchfork Music Festival week, and I’m doing my best to keep you as informed and up-to-date with all the comings and goings of one of Chicago’s finest (if not THE finest) music festivals. In addition to the regular dose of Pick Your Poison today, I’ll be posting a collection of mp3s and song streams from every artist on this year’s Pitchfork Music Festival lineup. The hope is that you’ll get some sort of education about artists on the bill you may not have heard of before, even if that dose is 3 minutes long. So enjoy that, as the next few days leading into Friday will be consumed with day-by-day previews of what artists to see. As to the official business at hand concerning Pick Your Poison today, please enjoy some great songs from CutWires, Debo Band, Feedtime, Frank Ocean, Golden Retriever, Memoryhouse, mum, and State Broadcasters.

Pick Your Poison: Friday 7-6-12

It’s been an interesting holiday week in music, hasn’t it? Christopher Owens left the band Girls. Tyler Sargent and Robbie Guertin left Clap Your Hands Say Yeah. Frank Ocean left heterosexuality. Wild stuff, right? I don’t really have comments on any of those things, except to say I wish everyone the best. Do what makes you happy, and if that means quitting a band or announcing you’re a homosexual or bisexual, then hopefully it works out in the end. One other thing I wanted to mention, and it’s sort of a site housekeeping sort of thing, but next week is Pitchfork Week here at Faronheit. Starting Monday and ending the following Monday, I’ll be providing a go-to guide for anything and everything Pitchfork Music Festival. I’ll start with a day-by-day guide, then provide daily recaps over the 3-day weekend before wrapping up with a final assessment and some photo sets. It should be a lot of fun, and I hope you’ll spend plenty of time learning about this year’s fest and the artists involved. Covering it the last couple years has been a blast, and I suspect this year will be more of the same. So keep an eye out for that. As for this Friday edition of Pick Your Poison, allow me to recommend tracks from Echoes De Luxe, Kalen Nash, Silver Medallion, Tough Guys of America and Trebuchet. In the Soundcloud section there’s good stuff streaming from Bonde do Role, OM and Summer Camp. Have a great weekend!

Pick Your Poison: Thursday 7-5-12

While I sit back and recover from too much BBQ yesterday, let’s take care of a couple points of business. First up, this is the weekly reminder that the Faronheit Facebook page exists, and you might want to pop over and “Like” it if you’re not feeling too turned off by the mere suggestion. No pressure, I’m just trying to deliver the best content possible over there to help make it worth the 2 seconds it took you to click. Secondly, I like to mention sometimes if a band being featured in Pick Your Poison has an upcoming tour date in Chicago. That’s the case with Aktar Aktar, who will be performing at Subterranean on Friday, July 20th with Secret Colours (who I’ve also featured on here a couple times). Should be a great show, and you can buy tickets for $10 by clicking here. Listen/download the Aktar Aktar song below too – it’s pretty good. Other pretty good stuff comes from Careful, Easter Island, Le Youth, Peelander Z, Slow Dancing Society and Wildlife Control. Oh, and I’d like to thank the multiple (random) people that emailed me about The Ludlow Thieves this week. I don’t know if they’re trying some grassroots marketing campaign or if it was sheer coincidence that 3 non-PR strangers felt the need to “get in touch” all at once, but in any case they’re a band with plenty of support and listening to the track below I can kind of understand why. In the Soundcloud section, stream some great tracks from Dead Can Dance, Fang Island and Woods. Lykke Li’s cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Silver Springs” is perhaps the best thing I’ve heard from the upcoming tribute record so far. Don’t miss it.

Pick Your Poison: Wednesday 7-4-12

Happy Independence Day to my fellow Americans! Today’s the day we celebrate not being ruled by England anymore. It’s a whole thing, we had parent issues and a rebellious phase that’s been going on for quite some time. Each year we get together with family or friends to fire up some grills, sit by the pool and launch plenty of fireworks. With that also comes the inevitable firework safety video, in which mannequins get their limbs blown off to illustrate the dangers of fireworks. So that’s always fun. I hope you enjoy your holiday, if you’re American and celebrating. If not, I hope your Wednesday is good regardless. If you’re throwing a party, some of the mp3s featured below could help make your soundtrack just a bit better. New stuff from Azealia Banks, Dylan LeBlanc, Railbird, Shark?, Truckstop Darlin, World Blanket (with a song especially effective today), and Zachary Cale.

Pick Your Poison: Tuesday 7-3-12

It’s a holiday week in America, and that typically means one thing: fewer new music releases. On Tuesdays I like to give you the rundown of what’s new out there so you can make an informed decision about what to spend your money on. This week sees new records from Easter Island, Chicago’s own Gold Motel, Johnny Hickman, Joshua Hyslop, Mum and Parlovr. Nothing too significant, but I promise you a couple of those records are more than decent. As for today’s Pick Your Poison, might I recommend tracks from Angel Haze, Denver, The Dust Engineers, Jenee Halstead, Tilly & the Wall and The Ugly Club.

Pick Your Poison: Monday 7-2-12

Happy Monday. I hope you had a great weekend. Have you gone to see Ted yet? It got solid reviews, but seriously cleaned up at the box office over the weekend. I guess people are just really, really interested in seeing a movie about a foul-mouthed teddy bear. I thought it was excellent, and considering it was written by, directed by and stars the voice talents of Seth MacFarlane, it’s easy to say he’s destined for bigger and better things beyond his work on Family Guy, American Dad and so forth. Hopefully a successful movie career doesn’t put a stop to all that. Anyways, let’s get to today’s Pick Your Poison. You might be interested in tracks from Arcadia Gardens, Birthmark, Company, Leverage Models, Milk Music, Twin Shadow and Why?. In the Soundcloud section stream Best Coast’s cover of the Fleetwood Mac classic “Rhiannon,” and you might also enjoy listening to tracks from Delay Trees and Follow Me.

Pick Your Poison: Friday 6-29-12

Say hello to the weekend, because it just arrived. I don’t know about you, but my summer weekends are packed with parties, BBQs and outdoor activities. Enjoy it while you can. Try and make some time to see Ted this weekend too. It’s supposed to be really funny. Also, because I mention it weekly, I’d be super appreciative if you’d head over to Facebook and do the whole “Like” button thing on the Faronheit page.
