New Growlers added to DHR
Great news! Just added some new Growlers tracks to the DHR jukebox! Check out rad new songs from Long Beach and LA’s finest psychedelic surf band’s new EP/LP “Hot Tropics”. Same familiar drug-haze, droning, low-fi surf-psych sound, but it’s even darker than usual – lot o’ death on this album.
Standout tracks include “Sea Lion Goth Blues” and “Comino Muerte“.
DHR Song of the Day for 11/30/10: Youthless – “Golden Age”
Click Here to Listen to Album
My song choice today is “Golden Age” by the Portugal-based band Youthless.
The song, like much of their music, blends stylistic elements that probably shouldn’t find their way into the same one song – and yet somehow it works effectively. It’s raw while being poppy and catchy, mixing in elements of indie rock, funk, and a flare that takes you back somewhere between the late 80′s and early 90′s.

DHR Song of the Day 11/29/10: Lemon Sun – “Touch The Lightning”
Went with Lemon Sun “Touch The Lightning” for today’s song of the day. Totally rad song, even while being very poppy and primed for perhaps the next Ocean’s 11 movie… What I mean is, this song is killer and could totally jazz up a film’s soundtrack. Meanwhile, don’t miss out on making this California-based band’s hit a part of your life’s soundtrack.
DHR on KXLU w/ DJ Jen: Playlist Archives – Nov 11 (Latino Americano y Tropicalia)
This was a special broadcast and a birthday wish come true. Dirty Jeff’s b-day happens to be Veteran’s Day, 11/11, and all he wanted to do was sit at the controls and spin sets of Latin American psychedelia and Brasilian Tropicalia – distinct genres of music which he has for some reason spent numerous years investigating. DJ Jen acquiesced, and we proceeded to open and blow minds. Here’s what we played…

DHR Song of the Day 11/27/10: Yellow Souls – “Today”
Today’s song of the day is “Today” by Yellow Souls.
This badass Berkeley band is yet another which presents such a difficult challenge to pick just one song from. But this is my pick today.
Yellow Souls create interesting rock ‘n roll which is altogether not poppy while still being catchy. Killer keys and organ, jabbing psych guitar leads, progressive turns with developed transitions, and a lead vocalist with a perfectly dirty, unique voice.
DHR Song of the Day 11/26/10: Sons Of An Illustrious Father – “Long Lost Highways”
Dirty Jeff’s song pick of the day today is “Long Lost Highways” by the Sons Of An Illustrious Father.
Pretty sure Dylan wishes he wrote this song. Funny thing is, this band boasts superb female lead vocals - rivaling the likes of Norah Jones; but it’s my day to pick, and the male-led vocals of “Long Lost Highways” happens to be my hook today. Dig this unreal band from New York!

DHR Song of the Day 11/24/10: The Growlers – “Old Cold River”
Dirty Jeff’s pick for song of the day today is… “Old Cold River” by The Growlers.
Washed out, raw, nasty, dirty, psychedelic surf music at contemporary’s finest. Difficult to choose one song from these Southern California originals, easily could have chosen 20; but there’s many more days in the year, oh yes.
