Just because Tony Pags is deep in that big apple doesn’t mean I cannot spread his freshness all over the realm.
This week’s JAM comes courtesy of TV Girl via Tony’s Turntable FM playlist. TV Girl is a little known lo-fi indie outfit hailing from Los Angeles, CA. Mix and mash, remix, and jazz up the originals. That’s fresh.
Song – Benny and the Jets.

As I was saying: (5 months ago)……
We JAM. We curate. We collaborate…..
Obviously we wouldn’t be hole up for too long…..

Aaron Kinnane is a vibrant expressionistic artist born in 1977 who creates art usually based on one subject with a series of mysterious interconnected works of art. I found this guy floating around via the CoolHunter and really dig his work. Below is just a picture of him and a couple recent prints he has worked on. Click on the link at the bottom for access to his site, info, and gallery.

That’s the JAM. Clean yourself off.

So Wordle.net just summed up my life in a nice little creative way. I’ve used this site for work before capturing social media conversations to sum up a brands image on one page. I’m pumping their tires because I really dig this site. Trust.

I know all the JAM readers of old have been eagerly awaiting us lazy clowns to get back on the digital grind and supply the world with the freshness. So I say to you – Your wait is ova.
Back on the JAM after a month or so hiatus is a wonderful feeling. A fantastic, orgasmic, intrinsic, enlightening feeling that only comes when my fingers are back at work on my Lenovo keypad. Just getting back to what I love, and that love is digital magic ladies and gentleman.
So to commemorate my Ali-like return to the web, I want to start off the week with a solid JAM. By no means is Santigold some underground new JAM discovery. It is, however, a solid kick ass JAM that made my morning great while taking the ever so shitty 66 bus to school in this dismal Boston weather.
That’s the JAM. Stay true Hipster Nation!!!

Before I could even post this jam, it moved up the HYPEM charts from 17 to NO.1 in less than 6 hours. The first thing I thought of when I heard the beat was when is Lil Wayne going to come on with the chorus “Like a lollipop! “Thankfully, he didn’t………. but I’m sure someone will in tomorrows remix. Could this b the sign that music is shifting from a balance of Indie vocals over some rap/hip hop beats???
Lets hope so. OBEDEAR’S New EP is about to release on JUNE 24. They’ll be touring a bit this summer too… mostly festival style… you know u want 2.

Studying for finals can put you in an aggressive mood. Think this slow dubby Jam can sum up my last two days of finals with one hard synth and a heavy bass line.
Song – Everything up (Joker and Ginz Remix)
Artist – Zero 7
That’s the JAM.
