Welcome, all!
This is the inaugural post of Happy Cycling, an mp3 blog dedicated to spread of quality music run by myself (Jonathan Sidney) and my good buddy Jono Rosenthal.
A full profile will be posted later; however, today I'd like to start you off with a couple tunes that I've been digging lately.
1. The Bad Plus-Life on Mars (http://download.yousendit.com/FD3B47E2311026F0)
I saw this jazz/rock/experimental trio for the fourth time Friday night, at Yoshi's, and they seem to get better every time. Their version of the David Bowie classic was described to me by a good friend as "literally sex". While some might disagree with that claim, I guess you can judge for yourself...
2. Anathallo-Hanasakajijii (four: a great wind, more ash) (http://download.yousendit.com/1871CE1A52CE4736)
I recently became familiar with this Chicago folk/indie collective, watching their set on the Coachella webcast as I mourned the fact that I was indeed missing 2007. While not going to Coachella was clearly a big disappointment, discovering Anathallo was a small consolation. I was immediately impressed with their performance and downloaded several songs of theirs. Somewhat reminiscent of Why?, I think all lovers of good music can get into Anathallo.
Until next time,
Jsid

I love David Bowie man, and the covers of him are just everywhere...in very novel formats. I don't know if this quit matches Seu Jorge's delightful work w/ Bowie songs on the zissou soundtrack, but it worked for the bad plus. It's not everyday you find an mp3 blog that starts inauspiciously but posts some great shit i woudln't hear otherwise. I really appreciate it guys, keep it up
what, no tips for managing pms?
