Fair warning: This might the least chill episode of Dave’s Lounge you’ll ever hear. I’m just in that kind of mood tonight…

This week I dug through my email and found a lot of worthwhile submissions from artists and, in one case, their friends. I still have quite a backlog to dig through, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to hear more music, so if you’re making any new downtempo sounds, shoot me an email at daveslounge@gmail.com, and i’ll give it a listen.

(This episode almost didn’t make it out tonight. I upgraded to a newer, faster hard drive last week and did a clean reinstall of Windows XP and all my software, including my new copy of Sonar Home Studio 7 — which still crashed on me for no apparent reason. It calmed down after the initial crash, though, so hopefully it won’t give me any more trouble than that. I’m still tweaking the audio settings on my voiceovers. It was a little softer than it should have been in this episode, so I’ll try to fix that later…)
This sort of a milestone episode, number 150, but I didn’t want to make too big a fuss about it, especially since the 4th anniversary of this podcast is just a month and half away. Still, I wanted to do something a little different this week, so I decided to go digging in the virtual crates in search of a theme. Along the way, I found a lot of really good tunes from bands that aren’t active anymore. I thought I might share some of those works with you here. After all, it would be a shame if some of these songs were completely lost to history…

Those of you who were following me on Twitter last week probably saw me raving about Thru You, a project by Israeli funk producer Kutiman in which he took dozens of random videos of people on YouTube singing and playing musical instruments and spliced them into one of the most awesome breakbeat collages you’ve ever seen or heard. Here is one of the seven videos from the project:
Kutiman and his manager were kind enough to let me play a few songs from his self-titled debut album on this show. You’ll be hearing more from him here in the coming weeks.

I’d like to thank whomever it was that clicked on an Amazon link on this site and bought a Kindle 2 last week. That made me a lot more money than I thought it would, and it had me wondering if I should start promoting the new e-book reader a little more on this show. Seems kind of hard to do, though, when the show is mostly about the music…
