ATOMS FOR PEACE - "Ingenue"



ATOMS FOR PEACE is a rock supergroup consisting of alternative rock royalty Thom Yorke and Nigel Godrich of RADIOHEAD, Flea of RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, Joey Waronker of BECK & R.E.M., and Brazilian instrumentalist Mauro Refosco. The band bonded together over their love of Afrobeat and together they have created the album Amok.

Just like how he did in the RADIOHEAD music video "Lotus Flower" Thom Yorke displays his dancing prowess again in this video for "Ingenue" which is still just as fixating. Like really, I have no idea how the song sounds like, just his dancing.

The Playlist: Josie's Top 20 Edge Riffs


On my way home from a weekend road trip to Chicago (there will be something about this later), we caught local Toronto new rock station 102.1 The Edge and their top 20 "Edge" Riffs. 

If anyone knows anything about my taste in music - I am in love with the "riff".  A "riff" is a short, repeated, memorable musical phrase that a song revolves around.  This musical idea is what gets in your head, what separates it from other songs, what makes a song special. The riff can make a good rock song into a legendary rock song.

Check out the list below.  While I don't necessarily agree with this list, it still has some pretty awesome songs.

The Playlist: 102.1 the Edge's Top 102 New Rock Songs of THE 2000s


Local Toronto new rock station 102.1 the Edge played their top 102 new rock songs of the 2000s over the past weekend. I'm not sure how they compiled this list, I'm guessing it's through people's votes, but I decided to post up the results anyways and remember, it will contain a lot of Canadian talent. While I don't completely agree with this list, it doesn't make it any less interesting to see what music came out this past decade.
