hey folks, this is Mira, a member of WMHC’s dedicated DJ posse. I recently went through a whole passel of CDs, and among them was the new-ish album, The Throne of the Third Heaven of the Nations’ Millennium General Assembly, from Le Loup. I always try and check up on what other people have said […]

Check out this video of Old Time Relijun at SXSW last year. This is basically what Emily and I witnessed at the Knitting Factory. So hot. Honestly, I just like men in boxer briefs.
….ok. i couldn’t resist. here’s another video of them @ The Tavern

Múm, an Icelandic group, whose child like pop is fun, catchy, and weird, is in the station and has recently been jumping the CMJ charts. Their album Go Smear the Poison Ivy is full of good tracks, and I highly recommend checking them out. Here’s the video for my favorite song “They Made Frogs Smoke […]

Emily and I literally just drove back from the city and it’s safe to say that CMJ tuckered us out pretty hard core. I plan on writing a whole play by play tomorrow, but FYI, on Friday we we’re at the WNYU sponsored show at the Knitting Factory with a few favorites like Japanther, Health, […]

So there’s wonderfully catchy funk/pop/post punk band from Flordia who have been getting so much blog press, and I’ve been a big fan since I read a Pitchfork review of their Myspace site a few weeks ago.
Emily and I tried to see them at CMJ, but we were totally shut out. Boo on The Annex. […]

Susanna Wallumrød is my favorite pick of the night (it’s one of those CD reviewing nights bc I’m hoping that tomorrow is Mountain Day).
She is most famous for Susanna and the Magical Orchestra, but she just released her first solo album Sonata Mix Dwarf Cosmos. The album will be in the station, so DJs please […]

Daft Punk- I saw them at Red Rocks in Colorado, which is the best venue ever. Look up pictures of it. Insane. Sebastian (Ed Bangor) and Under the Infulence of Giants opened. It was great.
Kanye West- Stronger is such a good single (thanks to Daft Punk) but the whole Graduation album is goood. I am […]

If you find yourself around Blanchard this weekend, wander on in. I’ll be DJing the Rugby “7 Sins” party on Saturday, and we may also be DJing the Bhangra dance on Friday. Shake it.
