December 6th, 2011Just Plain Good, Neat TracksBy Amanda DK
With the holidays fast approaching, I suppose it’s appropriate that for this week’s Neat Tracks, the featured band currently has a song on seasonal compilation by the Gap (who knew the clothing chain was hip to Soundcloud?).

It’s been my sincere pleasure to hear the buzz about this local band get louder and louder over the past few months. From my perspective at least, it began with the word spreading about their fantastic live performances. Then came write-ups in blogs across the country from Sunset in the Rearview to the LA times. Just a few short months later Milo Greene was featured as part of the “I Also Like To Rock” series, presented by KCRW and curated by Buzz Bands LA. Most recently they were on the bill to play at Sunset Junction, and due to the festival’s cancellation, played a packed day party at Dangerbird Records.

If you’re a Los Angeles music nerd, you’re quite familiar with the names Jason Bentley, Chris Douridas, Anne Litt, Raul Campos and Anthony Valadez. You know them as just a handful of the stellar DJs on public radio station KCRW (89.9 on the radio dial in Los Angeles, KCRW.com everywhere else). You may have also heard of Evan Kleiman, the host of Good Food, or Matt Holzman, the man who puts the “Matt” in Matt’s Movies. One name you may not know, however, is someone who I believe to be the one person every listener needs to say thanks to the most. The busiest person on staff: Music Publicity Director, Rachel Reynolds.

Kia Motors has been killing it over the past few years. Using the Yo Gabba Gabba! characters along with awesome music has led to a extremely successful ad campaign. Their newest spot, although it may not have the staying power as the original, still has a great effect. Check it out below…
