The new Raconteurs (not exactly sure how new, but it's great) website reminds of computer lab in third grade when I got to play Oregon trail on an old mac for an hour on fridays.  Those were good days.  This is how I crushed it hunting on Oregon trail.

They’re all there...

Marc Hogan, Pitchfork Media: TV on the Radio go the abstract, arty route for their latest video off of Dear Science, this time for the jittery, horn-backed, Axl Rose-referencing "Dancing Choose".  

If you haven't heard about thehoodinternet.com yet you should really give it a look and listen.  Here is a feature from Current tv that gives a great description about the history of the site and it's creators.  These guys mash up the latest in indie music and hip hop to create some infectious dancy tracks.   Their most recent mixtape, "THE HOOD INTERNET vs CHICAGO" mashes up the best...

The weekend in music:  all about Bonnaroo. Bonnaroo Festival, held on a beautiful 700-acre farm in Manchester, Tennessee. For those of us who were not lucky enough to be there the next best thing was probably watching the live webcast on the AT&T Blueroom site (http://www.attblueroom.com).  Some of the bands featured were Death Cab for Cutie, Sigur Ros, The Raconteurs,...
