Been a busy week.  Rather than talk about tech today I thought I would say a bit about whats in my car/ipod/laptop.  First if you get a chance go check out this Music Map application from Dimvision that you can find here.  I know there are others out there but this one is pretty hot and I think it integrates with Amazon APIs.  I used it to pick up some new tunes.  So what's in my audio playback device du jour?
Yerba Buena - Love this.  Mexi pop-rock meets electronica.  I can't get enough of this.  Definitely a bit more down home than say Ozomatli but if you have latin rhythms in your body do check this out.
Nortec Collective - Tim turned me onto this and the Music Map thing recommended this based on my interest in Yerba Buena.  More electronic and less Mexi-pop.
Mastodon - Wow.  Gus told me to run out and get this and CMJ had a really nice write up so I picked it up.  I can't say that this is the next Metallica from a style perspective but these guys rock very hard and sound really good.
The Mars Volta - The new one isn't as good as the last one but it is worth a pickup nonetheless.
