Greetings from Snow-lanta, Ga. If you are in the area, make sure to swing by the AEPi house on Emory's campus tonight from 5 to 8, where I will be giving away hundreds of free tickets to Big Boi's show at Center Stage. I'll be the one in the 40 foot tour bus parked in the lot... can't miss it.
(Update: Due to school closings, the ticket give away has been pushed to Thursday, January 20th from 11 - 2)

Unfortunately, it appears I've been banned from all of my music streaming sites for "copyright violations," so I'll be limited to posting videos for the time being...oops. That said, I've got an incredible one to share today.
The Morning Benders have been making noise in the industry for a few years now, touring with some of the top indie/alternative acts out there. But when I saw this video, I was absolutely blown away. As frontman Chris Chu explains in the introduction, the objective of this session was to emulate the "Wall of Sound" recording technique, originated by legendary producer Phil Spector. That is, to pack as many people into the studio as possible to create a dense, layered, and reverberant sound.
The result is a thing of pure beauty. I expect huge things from the 25-year-old Chu from here on out.
