The Postal Service

I caught cold and I can barely hear a thing, so it’s time for a classic. All you need to know about The Postal Service that it is probably the best indie-electronic band of the previous decade. Fortunately, their first and only album “Give Up” is still available for purchase at their label. (I threw in a Club Seal remix too, you can download the original from the band’s site.)

    Love their music. Been listening to them since the beginning :)
    I would really wish they would make another album though haha.
    It’s great they’re being recognized.

    Musigh, you now what I think might be next, are profiles…. so no one can pretend to be someone else! ( like everyone’s trying to be Johannes G. for some reason) and it can kind of be like last.fm, you just add your favorite songs and it makes a playlist!

    that dubstep remix sounds really cluttered with both drums going. Like a bad mash up, or a bad mix.
