Listen To:

Broken Bells

“The Ghost Inside” by Broken Bells

Feel an affinity towards the ‘Garden State’ soundtrack? Searching for a musical group as intoxicatingly catchy as Ke$ha that you would actually be willing to admit to liking? Broken Bells is the group for you. Featuring the lackadaisically cool vocals of James Mercer from the Shins, and the preposterously attractive beats of artist-producer Danger Mouse, Broken Bells is sure to be the hot, fresh band of March.

“On Melancholy Hill” by Gorillaz

From the band that brought us unassailable hits such as “Feel Good Inc.” and “Kids With Guns” comes a brand new CD, “Plastic Beach,” a guaranteed chart-topper. The up-beat blend of electronica, hip-hop and alternative rock, stringed together by relaxed British vocals and innovative lyrics promises not to disappoint.

Watch:

“That Touch of Mink” (1962)

This classic, endearing, romantic comedy features the acting of Cary Grant and Doris Day, both trademarks to 1960s Hollywood. If you are in the mood for light, classic humor and a predictably complicated plot, grab a blanket and some pop corn and turn on ‘That Touch of Mink.”

“Symphonies” by Dan Black (feat. Kid Cudi)

This music video is, in two words, imaginary and addictive. It will glue both your eyes and ears to the computer screen as you watch in silent awe.

Go to:

Razzle Dazzle, a fun and well-stocked vintage store on Grant Road. The multiplicity of genres is all over the board, from 1950s cocktail dresses to cashmere sweaters to 1980 cowboy boots. Whether you need an original dress for prom, a snazzy nightstand or you just happen to be in the neighborhood, I strongly recommend seeing for yourself what this store has to offer.
