The Dose: Tame Impala “Expectation” Video
Posted: December 3, 2010 in The Dose, What's NewTags: corporate greed, Expectation, Innerspeaker, Record Companies, Tame Impala, toezoo
Tame Impala keeps coming out with great video after great video! “Expectation” is no exception. Maybe someday their record company will stop dicking around and give us their album in the US? But that would make sense, and we all know how ‘making sense’ is a foreign term to a record company. Ironic, since all [...]
Happy Holidays from ToeZoo, and The Boy Least Likely To, and Wham!, sort of…

My Best Of 2010 is almost done! This next video is great, but it’s not from my list, i just thought i needed to put something out there, and this is super-fantastic! Plus, it’s nearly Christmas! Also, Happy Hanukkah! If you don’t fall into either of those catagories, then Happy Holidays! If that doesn’t cover [...]

More years ago than I’d care to say, I was sitting with some friends watching actual music videos on MTV (that should tell you how long ago…). The Stone Roses came on with their video for “I Wanna Be Adored“, and all I could think was “What the fuck is this, and who do these [...]
Robyn Hitchcock & The Hungry Moment
Posted: August 16, 2010 in What's NewTags: Abigail Washburn, egyptians, media, phantom 45s, playnetwork, producer, Rayna Gellerd, robyn hitchcock, toezoo, venus 3
Robyn Hitchcock has been around longer than most of the stuff you listen to, and there’s a reason for that; he’s fantastic! For a limited time, you can head over to his site and download 2 tracks from his new project The Hungry Moment, which is a ‘psyche & western’ group he’s started with Abigail [...]
Read yesterday that Brian Eno will be releasing a new album on WARP. As far as i’m concerned, a new Brian Eno album of any kind on any label is welcome news! I love Eno’s music and his philosophy on life. I would worship at The Church Of Eno, even though he would absolutely loathe [...]
If Nick Cave is married to The Bad Seeds, then Grinderman is his mistress. “Heathen Child” has been given to us ahead of the albums release via SoundCloud, check it out! I have to say, i don’t like it very much. Nick, i thought we had a kind of potlatch pact? I bring my hard [...]
Just read in Billboard that Kristin Hersh is releasing her new album “Crooked” with book publisher HarperCollins! I’m not sure what section you’ll have to look in to buy it, but with the record industry collapsing, this is a shrewd move on her part. Is it a book with a CD, or a CD with [...]
Wow! This is everything a video should be! Enjoy… Tony Media Producer PlayNetwork, Inc.
Today’s Dose, Happy Version: Duran Duran
Posted: December 8, 2010 in Commentary, The Dose, What's NewDuran Duran have long been one of my favorite bands, and i’ve taken a lot of stick for it. Do i give a shit? What do you think? Admittedly, their catalogue is hit and miss from about ’82′s ‘Rio‘ album, but when they hit, they really hit. Which brings me to their new album (out [...]
