Jensen Sportag - Modcast #91 - Body Haiku

My goodness I’ve missed you all— these last two weekends are known as a bit of a birthday blowout in our family, considering that my mother and father have birthdays a week apart (and both expect separate celebrations); really though, it was a well received vacation break but I’m ready to get back into the rhythm.

Speaking of rhythm, a great way to reintroduce me into the music blog/site/whatever world is a combination of a great mix series and one of my favorite duos, Jensen Sportag. As I hit the ground running to compile all the other artists I ran into while vacationing (You didn’t expect me to go cold turkey on my workaholic tendencies, did you?), note that I’ll probably be writing while listening to this mix:

Have you heard of Modular People? Have you heard of Architecture in Helsinki, Cut Copy, The AvalanchesThe RaptureVan SheTame Impala (to name a few)? If so, you’ve heard of Modular. Good for you! If not, here’s a quick and easy way to get educated on their artists and their good taste in contributors through their mixtape series: THE MODCAST. Since they’ve managed to arrange some of the mixes in one nice Soundcloud Set for us, I figure we should get this lesson started:
