Video of the Week - "Ready to Go"

Martin Solveig's "Ready to Go" is the third episode of SMASH. Solveig is a DJ from Paris taking the world by storm. His last song "Hello" went number one in several countries and "Ready to Go," which has been released in a few countries so far, looks to do the same. It has not been released in the United States yet.

Here is a link to episode #3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3p03NRYQTg (11:21) and if that's too long just the song (3:05) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOQSEvESj5Y.

Until Next Time,

Video of the Week - "When I Grow Up"

This week I have chosen "When I Grow Up" by Fever Ray, aka: Karin Dreijer Andersson. Recently I went to see the movie Red Riding Hood, which was excellent. Two of the tracks, "The Wolf" and "Keep the Streets Empty for Me" by Fever Ray, are part of an awesome sound track that takes the movie to another level. I had heard Andersson's vocals first in Royskopp's "What Else is There?" and thoroughly admire her style. This lead me to research Andersson and is when I discovered The Knife, a duo band of Andersson and her brother, and her solo album Fever Ray. The video is excellent, showcasing a woman, a model, in non-traditional attire. As far as I can tell, Andersson does not appear in this video, which is common for this artist who in past performances has typically worn a mask and sent someone on her behalf to receive awards at award shows. Great music! Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4F-CpE73o2M Until Next Time,

Cheese of the Week - Bleu Mont's Bandaged Cheddar (Wisconsin)

Bleu Mont's Bandaged Cheddar is fantastic! Now is the best time to buy it because the wheel's that are ready for consumption today have used the best milk. The milk has a different taste than normal because the cows are eating spring and summer grasses and it influences the taste of the milk, and thus the cheese as well. The flavor varies from bite to bite, such as clover or grass. The last piece I had I detected a note of beats, exquisite. Bleu Mont is an artisan cheese maker out of Wisconsin. You most likely won't be able to find this at your grocery store, but maybe at a specialty shop. Best of luck in finding it, and the search is well worth the effort for this fantastic cheese.

Until Next Time,

Video of the Week - Who's that Chick?

I am a huge fan of David Guetta's music. This is David Guetta featuring Rihanna in "Who's that Chick?" So colorful and fun; makes me think of Miami. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAc4zHEDd7o
