Summer's Almost Over :'( - Sept. Top 10 CD's

Now that summer is almost over, things slow down a bit, kids are in school, not so much running around having fun, and overall it is just more mellow. Thus the reason that this month, my CD picks lean towards the quieter sounds of jazz. Enjoy these great CDs that are a little jazzier than your normal jazz.

Summer Soundtrack- August Top 10 CD List!

Check out my recommendations of the best music downloads this month including Volifonix, Bill Champlin, Everybody Else, Los Campesinos!, MGMT, Phoenix, The Ting Tings, Jason Mraz, and The Virgins.

Water, sun, the smell of cocoa butter, the wind in your hair, tanning, ocean breezes, beach parties, frozen drinks, vacation memories, kids playing in the sprinklers, all that the Summer represents captured in your own personal Summer music soundtrack.

Sizzling Explosive Music Downloads- July Top 10!

Check out my recommendations of the best music downloads this month including Tina Ann, Volifonix, Bill Champlin, Everybody Else, Los Campesinos!, Rooney, Hall & Oates, Regina Spektor, GirlTalk, and The 88.

Fireworks, rockets, freedom, red, white, &blue, outdoor barbecues, hot dogs, hamburgers, kids splashing in the pool, picnics, and of course, music all make July a memorable month.

In June, we pay tribute to Michael Jackson....

...and recommend my favorite MJ songs...
