Mashup featuring Wale x Miguel x Washed Out x RAC x Birdy + John Lennon.
Kimbra – Settle Down
She’s like an acapella-ish and slightly-more-soulful American version of Adele.
Thanks for finding this, Lis!
Slow Dance – Risk It All
Slow Dance is the best thing to come out of Seattle since Mad Rad. I’d categorize it as electrosynth-infused hip-hop that’s danceable, and quite reminiscent of Swedish electro-hopper Adam Tensta. Check out Slow Dance’s new album below, and stop by their album release party if you’re in Seattle this Friday (it’s at Nectar).
Jay-Z & Adele – Won’t Go/Wishing (Urban Noize Remix)

Wale – Ocean Drive (ft. Black Cobain, Magazeen)
This is some superb rap right here. Love the Jamaican hook, Caribbean inspired beat with synth, and of course, Wale’s flawless delivery.

Amazing. And I’m glad to hear that Portland Cello Project is getting the buzz they rightly deserve. Keep your eyes peeled for more from them in the future.

Seattle Music Morsel – Theophilus London
Theophilus London is perhaps my favorite music discovery of 2010 (thanks, Wine and Bowties!)
Imagine a cross between Kanye West, Michael Jackson, and 80′s synth pop, and you’ll have some idea of what Theophilus London sounds like. Really, he’s an enigma.

I was lucky enough to meet him last night when he performed at a private show in Seattle for Bing (thanks, Bing!):
Here are a few more shots from his show (which was amazing!):
You can buy his most recent album on Amazon here:
And you can preorder his new album, Timez Are Weird These Days, on iTunes here.
