The thought of reaching 88mph in a Delorean while jamming this song would probably be pretty awesome.

Cold War Kids - Royal Blue (Alternative)

January 25, 2011 LHDtunes

All the electronic stuff I've been listening to lately has taken a back seat today as the Cold War Kids drop their new album, "Mine Is Yours". It's remained in heavy rotation throughout the day.

Deadmau5 – Raise Your Weapon (Electronic/Progressive)

The beginning of this song is so inviting it forces you to listen to it in it's entirety... and it certainly holds it's own. Deadmau5 is ridiculous to see live, I highly recommend his shows to anyone interested in the genre.

Sam Cooke – Good Times (R&B/Soul)

Sometimes when you have to design to a specific era, it's best to put yourself there. Sam Cooke, among others, will be getting me through today.

Example – Watch the Sun Come Up (dubSTEP)

The walls have been rumblin' at LHD lately with all the dubstep I've been introduced to.

What is dubstep?

According to Wikipedia: Dubstep is a genre of electronic dance music. Its overall sound has been described as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals." You can read more here.

The Pharcyde - Passing Me By (Hip-Hop/Rap)

Long before the unfortunate autotune era we live in now, hip-hop was once a real thing... that's where these guy's came in.

Sigur Rós – Untitled Track #3 (Alternative/Pop/Ambient)

Sigur Rós relaxes the mind, body and soul. This song from beginning to end will help push an idea or struggle. Six minutes, thirty three seconds of sublime.

 

Huey Lewis & The News – Heart and Soul (Rock)

This really doesn't need much explanation. Give their greatest hits a listen from beginning to end and your to-do list will be knocked clean.

Grand National - Drink to Moving On (Alternative)

March 30, 2010 LHDtunes

LHDtunes

Grand National hasn't released an album in years but their sound remains fresh and mellow. This song is from the 2004 album Kicking the National Habit, which is my favorite of the four. Other notable songs from the album include Talk Amoungst Yourselves and Strange Magnificent Noise.

80kidz - Miss Mars (Electronic)

FIRST: "Miss Mars" makes you think of an old video game you used to play.

SECOND: The beat builds, where is this going?!

THIRD: I'm flying somewhere in some funkadelic crazy awesome 80's movie!

Yeah, I like this song.
