Boogie Boarder are a Brooklyn foursome on the verge of releasing their soon-to-be-summer-splash entitled Pizza Hero! Been psychedelic’ing out to “Bio Hassle” for a cool minute now and can’t get enough of it. Album drops on June 23 and if you forget their name you need not worry because any trip to your local independent record store will result in the checking out of this quirky little album. And if not…then you’re lame.
Boogie Boarder – Bio Hassle
Our Chi-city pal Hollywood Holt dropped a rad tune that hasn’t only turned our summer on, but has successfully turned me on as well. While Cool Kid Chuck Inglish remixed Canada’s Drake, Mikey Rocks hit the decks with Holt and Dude Royal piecing together one of my favorite beat-thumpin’ & grindin’ tracks this year. Fuck Kid Cudi, Holt and Inglish are where it’s at! Don’t forget to hit up a FMLY interview with The Cool Kids right hurr.
Hollywood Holt – This Shit Is Easy (feat. Mikey Rocks and Dude Royal)
And here are some tracks that we’ve been bumpin’ plenty this week, hope you enjoy! Don’t forget to come out to the Museum of Neon Art tonight for FMLY’s Illuminate Your Night with Pocahaunted, Magic Lantern, Pizza!, and Vibes! Seriously, this lineup has brought tears to my eyes. For more info refer to the facebook event or a very sweet post on the show from Inflight At Night.

Anamanaguchi – Danger Mountain
Girl Talk – I’m Ill
Rainbow Bridge – Big Wave Rider
Super interesting blends and mashups floating around out there. First up is Dead Prez remashed with David Banner by DJ Eleven. Taking suit to the chill vibes that were brought out by the Hood Internet orchestrated Grizzly Bear vs Dead Prez, Eleven views the classic from an attractive and curious perspective.
DJ Eleven – Bigger Than Hip-Hop (Dead Prez vs David Banner)
Girl Talk performed at Yale not too long ago and a bootleg has surfaced. As always with his live recordings, the sounds just make you wish you were there for the extended eargasmic portions of audible cheesecake. Download the entire performance at Free Culture.
Girl Talk – I’m Ill
Our boys over at The Hood Internet just posted another solid mash, this time of The Pharcyde vs Casiotone For The Painfully Alone.
ABX – Passin’ My White Jetta By
In other news, we’re still waiting on the mythical second album by the Avalanches.
Owen Ashworth, better known as Casiotone for the Painfully Alone, has one of the best set-ups I can think of. He uses a wide array of battery-powered keyboards to make his heartwarming electro pop songs. For those of you not familiar with Casiotone keyboards I’ll give you a rundown of the basic features of most of them. Their super-cheap, often have cheesy drum machine beats that can be used, and they can make you feel like you’re playing the Legend of Zelda on your Super Nintendo. The Casio SK-1 sampling keyboard is one of Owen’s particular favorites. This small keyboard allows you to sample a short loop with an internal microphone and then play it with the keys. It’s soooooooooo lo-fi. Casiotone for the Painfully Alone are playing a free, all ages show at Ms. Bea’s tomorrow night at SXSW. If you’re in Austin you should check it out and of course check out FMLY’s shows the 19th and 20th at HiLo as well.
