Why, Cuz I can foo!

It’s the weekend. And guess what, it’s going to snow again. On the upside, winter is almost done and I see Spring in the horizon. What would the weekend be without some ill tracks, yes? So, I have mellow, some kind of mellow, and some hyphy ass shit!! My man Rawkus has suggested some quality tracks. He’s a DJ in here in the Mile High City, and sometimes spins w/ Rock Stars Are Dead . First, the mellow. Postprior is (I won’t mess this one up, I’ll let them tell you who they are, they’re too cool for words)

PostPrior is the duo of Midwest Product main man Ben Mullins and vocalist/wunder-drummer Michael Kuzmanovski (the descendent of circus acrobats – no lie). Blending 80s melancholy with razor-sharp programming and composition skills, the duo craft a totally unique kind of pop with the same finesse and attention to detail that multi-instrumentalist Mullins displayed with his former band. Equal parts catchy, quirky, and epic – and with subject matter ranging from film/TV actor Elliott Gould to George Willig, who scaled the World Trade Center with a set of homemade claws in the late 70s – the PostPrior sound is expansive and ambitious without ever betraying those with an ear for detail and a need to dance.
