Midwest Mix : JHubner 73s First Playlist(Christmas Edition)

Hello everyone. I hope this post finds you nestled in your favorite chair on Christmas morning. Maybe the kids are tearing through all that hard work put into wrapping the gifts in record speed. Here’s to a pot of dark roast brewing in the kitchen, maybe some cinnamon rolls rising in the oven, and a […]

Panda Bear :: Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper

“Sequential Circuits” is really the best way Noah Lennox could bring us into the world of his newest musical hallucination called Panda Bear Meets the Grim Reaper. With its percolating synths, fluid gurgles, and Lennox’ own angelic harmonies floating above the song like paisley-colored clouds the song is a perfect mix of both Panda Bear’s […]

Whatever Gets You Through The Night

After a pretty casual Saturday filled with Netflix bingeing, spinning tunes, and recording tracks in the studio; and even enjoying a nice stout or two in the evening I heard that phrase that kills a buzz quicker than anything: “I puked.” Yes, my son who I’ve dubbed “my little puker” thoughtfully made it to the […]

A Belgian Placebo

It’s not often that Record Store Day gives me a true musical gift. Sure, there’s usually some cool colored vinyl from the Flaming Lips, a rare live release, or some reissues you didn’t know you needed till you see it on that RSD release sheet. But for the most part I’m not discovering anything new […]

Storm’s A-Brewin’

It looks like we’re in for some heavy snow tonight. According to the local(and most accurate) weather report from Indiana Weather Online we’re looking to be in the 2 to 4 inches category, with us being closer to the 4 inches spot. Granted that’s not a whole lot, especially when you compare it to last […]

Resolutions…An All Year Thing

Where did the idea of resolutions in the New Year come from, anyways? Sure, I guess it seems appropriate that January 1st is like a do-over button in our life. With that new beginning it seems like a good spot to start spouting about how you’re going to change this or that. Well I’m here […]

D’Angelo And The Vanguard : Black Messiah

I don’t know a whole lot about D’Angelo. Up until hearing his incredible new album Black Messiah with his band The Vanguard the most I knew about this soulful crooner was that video for “Untitled(How Does It Feel)” he put out back in 2000. You know the one. Don’t lie, I know you do. Anyways, […]

New Year’s Eve

I can’t remember the last New Year’s Eve that I had to get up and go to work. It’s been years. And yet, here I am. I’m at work, wondering why in the hell I’m here. It’s not that I don’t understand that folks work on New Year’s Eve. I know they do. I know […]

Greetings From Holiday Island

Hello guys and gals! How have you been? I hope your holiday season has been a pleasant one. I shared a few rum and cokes with the old man on Christmas and watched quite a bit of tv about older men dropping serious cash on vintage cars. The kids were thrilled with what was under […]

Christmas Day, 2014

Well the unwrapping has been done. Gifts were torn open and kids guffawed at books, Legos, movies, and the like. The dog has sniffed his last bit of ribbons and sealed candy till next year at this time. The wife and I are tired. We got up at 5am so we could get the dough […]
