The Grammy Nominations made me happy.

I didn't get nominated for anything this year, (can't wait tho), but Kenna's original Say Goodbye to Love and Janelle Monae's Many Moons both got nominated for "Best Urban/Alternative Performance".

Songs that both have Trackademicks remixes, and one of which I'm on.

To refresh your memory...



Kenna- "Say Goodbye to Love" (Trackademicks Remix) featuring Mike Baker the Bike Maker

--AND--



Janelle Monae- "Many Moons" (Trackademicks Y'all Better Shut Up' Remix)

Congrats to all those that've been nominated!!!

Trackademicks and Miss Jack Davey's thoughts as well.

And shout out to the homie Diplo for that "Record of the Year" nomination for M.I.A.'s Paper Planes!

Little Dragon- "After the Rain" Live @ Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco 11/23/08

This show was just what the doctor ordered. The whole weekend was an emotional shithole for me, and Yukimi and crew were exactly what I needed.

This was one of the best shows I've ever been to. Top 5 for real.

The last time I was so blown away at a show was when I saw LCD Soundsystem at The Fillmore years ago. I went cuz M.I.A. was opening, and had no idea who James Murphy and band were, and they hit me. Hard.

Shows like these don't happen all that often, and when they do, you just gotta savor those times.
