AUDIO FANFICTION: COCONUT PETE’S PLEASURE ISLAND
For this week’s mixtape, we’re getting a little loose. Inspired by the conversation we had with Broken Lizard about their hilarious slasher parody, Club Dread, we thought we’d down a couple of pina coladas and […]
BHYH: THE “I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO CALL THIS” MIX
Today’s edition of BHYH may be the most eclectic we’ve done yet. In the mix we’ve got a powerhouse of a power pop band based out of Chicago, a richly diverse soundtrack to a early […]
AUDIO FANFICTION: BILL & TED’S MOST EXCELLENT MIX
For years, decades, centuries, millennia, Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted “Theodore” Logan have been lauded as the most premium examples of stoner metalheads in modern cinema. We here at Grumpire, however, think the boys […]
BHYH: THE “TIDE’S COMING IN” MIX
On this week’s BHYH, we’re milking all we can get from the late summer with a vintage tune from a classic beach movie, a couple of quirky hip-hop tracks, a heart-breaking post-grunge ’90s cut, a […]
MIXTAPE: OUR RESIDENT CANADIAN RECOMMENDS NYC PUNK
Punk rock means a lot of different things to different people and that’s okay (unless you’re the likely-now-dead guy who wrote that infamous episode of Quincy M.E., decrying the “dangers” of punk). Punk is diverse, […]
BHYH: THE “CONSPIRACIES, GROUPTHINK, AND LOVECRAFT, OH MY” MIX
On this edition of But Have You Heard we look into the eerier side of things with a very “Coast to Coast AM” inspired track from a veteran of modern alternative, a newly released banger […]
MIXTAPE: GOING BACK TO CALI 1975
California has always been a part of my life as far back as I can remember. Yeah, I was born on the East Coast, but my heart and dreams lay on the west coast. So, […]
BHYH: THE “RETRO/FUTURE, BUT NOT RETROFUTURE” MIX
This week’s BHYH runs circles all around the space-time continuum by featuring a broad range of tracks including a possibly forgotten 1980s nightclubbing favorite, a science fiction-inspired look into the future from a South Texas […]
MIXTAPE: WE BE DIPPIN’
For eight years I ran a small, historical ice cream and hamburger stand located on the west side of Nashville called Bobbie’s Dairy Dip. It’s a famous place in Nashville; built in 1951, the colorful […]
BHYH: A JOURNEY THROUGH THE SOUNDS OF GIMETZCO!
This week’s BHYH has been taken over by site Art Director, Andrew Bargeron. Read on, listen, and stay tuned for more staff music recommendations on the next edition of BHYH! It was my birthday this […]
THE “DON’T CALL IT NOSTALGIA” MIX
This week’s edition of BHYH features a maybe less-than-familiar horror-tinged hip hop anthem, an absolute banger of a classic hip hop album you may have forgotten about, a sexy soundtrack number from the underdog of […]
MIXTAPE: SUMMERTIME HIP-HOP (NO, NOT THAT FRESH PRINCE SONG)
By mid-June we’re all reasonably starting to feel the heat of the summer sun. Undoubtedly it’s time for chilling in the shade with our besties, enjoying some (very) cold drinks, and cranking up the volume […]
THE “BEYOND THE VALLEY OF NORMAL” MIX
This week’s BHYH is again eclectic (sorry, we can’t help it), with a range of recommendations from slammin’ summer hip-hop, chainsaw-wielding adrenaline boosters, a whole slew of alternative black voices, unifying ska sounds, and a […]
THE “DO THIS SH*T MY WAY” MIX
This week’s BHYH is an eclectic mix of soda pop doo wop suited for the most John Waters-y of us, a well-crafted DJ/rap track that reminds us of the King of Cartoons, a dip into […]
