Daily Squeeze 10/5/12: JP Haynie

Hello Squeezelets, how has your day been? Today the Daily Squeeze comes from local Utah act JP Haynie. I found JP while searching through bandcamp for new music and stumbled upon his fantastic 2012 LP "The Sand". Only after hearing the album did I discover that he was a local, and I decided to purchase this LP on vinyl. Whether or not you order the LP doesn't really matter, what matters is that this has to be one of my favorite albums of the year and when you guys listen to it you will think the same. JP uses an incredible folk sound along with beautiful lyrics (mostly lyrics that are very influenced by the beautiful landscape of Utah) to win over not only your ears but your heart. Please go and give this LP a listen or two, it is very worth the listen and if you like it enough you can buy it digitally for 7 bucks and if you really love it (like I did) you can buy the multicolor vinyl pressing with a beautiful 24 pg. lyric book.

Tattoo - Peace DAILY SQUEEZE

Hi fellow squeegees.
Sorry for the long time no see. Trust me, you will be seeing a lot more posts with "-Carl" at the bottom from now on. I have been busy transitioning to a new school as well as brainstorming new ideas for the blog. On top of that, Evan and I have been working on a "project." That's all I can disclose for now, as it is still in the works. You'll  be hearing more about that in the coming weeks ahead. Now to the post.

Today's Daily Squeeze is more of a micro-review of the new track by the "post-punk" garage rock ensemble   Peace. Their new track "Tattoo" is an insight into the almost (or maybe already?) completed LP entitled The World is Too Much With Us planned to drop quite soon. The track itself is a jambalaya of heavily reverbed vocals piled high amongst complex, yet very catchy guitar riffs that almost have a middle eastern feel. I love the overall groove of the track and see Peace becoming innovators in their genre with their future LP. Check them out with this link to the MP3. http://suicidesqueeze.net/stream/peace/Peace_Tattoo.mp3

Have a wonderful day and see you tomorrow!!

Daily Squeeze: 4/1/12

Hello people of the internet, today's squeeze is the band Coyote Fever, which are friends of ours over at the random squeeze. Over the past few weeks I had the great joy of seeing them live. What I can tell you about them is that they are a group that if I had to explain it (which I am now) sounds like Explosions in the Sky with lyrics, shorter songs and a much more prominent indie rock bass line. Like I said they're friends of ours and they are definitely going to make it, check them out as soon as possible, go on to their facebook, listen and download their demo.

 Hey Everyone!

Sorry for not Squeezing for a while. Between cello gigs and studying for finals, I haven't really had time to post.
Today's Daily Squeeze is a sweet track by a hip-hop group called Knowmads. They are a two man group out of Seattle, WA who produced a fresh album by the name of Seattle a while ago. Here's my personal favorite off of the album (because of its clean sound and DOPE sample.)

Hey Everyone. Today's Daily Squeeze is my new favorite song. Its by a Dutch singer/songwriter named Plastic Evolution. Unfortunately I can't tell you much more about him because it's extremely hard to find resources on such an unknown artist. I love everything about this song. Here's Curio by Plastic Evolution.

Daily Squeeze 2/8/12

hi   :)

I'm kinda in a mellow mood so today I'm gonna throw an acoustic artist at you. I love this guy's minimalist style. Here's Ghanian-Canadian artist Kae Sun. Pay attention to the tracks Lion on a Leash, Firefly Dance, Burden of Love, and Weh-Weh. I might end up reviewing this album in the future.

Daily Squeeze 1/31/12

Shoop Da wooop!

I've realized that I've done a lot of rap/beat/instrumental Daily Squeeze's lately so I'm going to change it up a little. Today's Daily Squeeze is still an instrumental but I think it appeals to just about everyone. If the name of the song doesn't make you want to listen I don't know what will. Just make sure you listen until at least 1:00 in the video. This is Easy Muffin by Amon Tobin

Hey peoplez!

Here to do yet another Daily Squeeze on a phenom producer. Today's producer is DJ Signify. He has very high production value and makes some sick, complex, very original beats that are reminiscent of old-skool 1990's rap beats. Enjoy his vinyl dusted beat titled 1993: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dsq0cyniSpU

Daily Squeeze: 1/29/12

Hello everybody, today the daily squeeze isn't an underground band and is really more just the best video of the day. The video includes a past feature on The Random Squeeze and one that hasn't been spotlighted but you all know who he is. I found this video yesterday late so I didn't get the chance to post it, but this video defines the word that both of theses artists love to use... SWAG. So without further ado, I give you BADBADNOTGOOD x Tyler, The Creator and their jam session video of the OFWGKTA song Orange Juice.

SWAG, Peaces, and FREE EARL

Beep-boop.

Today's Daily is about a very unique and almost completely unheard of producer named Question. He is nothing short of phenomenal so please check him out! His sound is very jazzy and original but he's not very popular so show him some love.

A track off of his album Standard Translation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXOJrcIK2Q0

Hi Guys,

I haven't made an appearance for a while because I've been sick so sorry about not dropping the deadmau5 review last weekend as promised. I'm planning on doing a track by track review of it coming very soon so watch for that (it's a new reviewing style I have in mind that I want to test out).

I want to highlight a very talented producer/instrumentalist/singer named RJD2 for my Daily Squeeze today. RJD2 is one of my favorite producers of all time just because of his unique sound that is mainly hip hop, but also has influences of trip hop, jazz, lo-fi and electronica.

Enjoy this track: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfZxJV1ykHs and be sure to check out some of his other stuff, it's all really good!

Daily Squeeze: 1/22/12

Hello, people who have come to be looking at this post. First off I want to say I'm sorry for not getting anything up yesterday, that was completely my bad. For today's daily squeeze, I am spotlighting the band NO CEREMONY///. They are an electro soul/ experimental music group from Manchester, and that is really the most anybody knows about this band. I got into them last year when their first single "Hurtlove" was released. I have been on their tail ever since waiting for more music from these guys. In my opinion, they could become one of the next big things in indie music.

Listen to NO CEREMONY///'s latest single "DELIVERUS" here : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQtNAnuQAQU.  (just a warning this latest single is very different from their others)

also check the mout on their website here : http://noceremony.com/

then check out my youtube channel (if of course, you came here from their, you should go there anyway)

Daily Squeeze: 1/20/12

Well, guys their is really only one person that deserves the daily squeeze today. Etta James is one of the most legendary and influential artists of all time, and very, very sadly she past away earlier today at the age of 73 of complications from leukemia. She was a winner of 6 grammy's and the true "Queen of Soul". The Random Squeeze would like to send their thoughts and condolences to the family and friends of Etta James. Etta, you will be dearly missed.

Listen to one of my favorite Etta James songs here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YApNirMC9gM

Also, please comment on this by telling the people of the Random Squeeze what are some of your favorite Etta James songs, quotes, really anything you would like to say in honor of Etta James.

R.I.P Etta James "The Queen of Soul"

WOAH new font!!

Hey guys, hope you like the less cluttered new font. Hopefully it's not too boring either. Before I do the Daily Squeeze I just wanted to say that I will be reviewing deadmau5 at play volumes 1 and 2 over the weekend so look forward to that. As far as the Squeeze goes, I really don't have much to say because I have a pretty substantial headache. Basically, due to the headache, I've been listening to a lot of jazz. Give the (Grammy Award Winning) album Moody 4B a listen if you want to hear some straight up jazz.

Hey Everyone!

In honor of MLK Jr. Day, today's Daily Squeeze is going to feature one of Evan and I's favorite bands, BBNG (BADBADNOTGOOD). They are a trio that mix two African American created genres (hip-hop and jazz) into a unique sound that can only be described as "SWAGGGG!" If you haven't heard of them before I highly recommend giving them a listen. You can download their free album at  http://badbadnotgood.com/.

Daily Squeeze: 1/15/12

Hey everyone, I'm here coming to you guys with todays Daily Squeeze. Todays Daily Squeeze is a Utah local band Eyes Lips Eyes. I saw these guys live at a new years eve 2010 party. They're what I would qualify as a funk rock band. Make sure also to try and find some of their stuff under the name of Elizabethan Report (they changed it from that to Eyes Lips Eyes, if you didn't get that already). check them out at their website: http://www.eyeslipseyes.com/ and listen to one of my favorite tracks of thier Blue/Red album here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=puvJ8qsNiDo
