Where I'm at with this?
I write all day, every day and all the time. When I'm not absorbing news and television, i'm listening to musics. When I first started this series under the name Organasm, I wasn't aware or from what I remember (my lazy ass could look it up right now), that Eargasm was doing the same thing. That service has become a monster, so eventually I'll be changing the name to this thing from Organasm to something else.
In the meantime, I want to keep you up to date with the stuff that has my ear as soon as I can tell you about it. Before this post and the last one, or up till then, I was doing the same thing but now I want to do more with local music. That means pushing the best stuff here on you over there. The only way for that to happen is for me to do it, so consider those as my two goals for this blog. For now, I'm going to post as quickly as I can so with that, check out this shit!
현아 - (South Korea)

Holy SHIT! What is... THIS!? Watch her pop that shit all over this video! Damn girl... I just saw this thing. Had to share. (read more)
Wyatt (Brisbane, Aus)
Go ahead and start the music while we talk about what you're listening to.

I heard this thing from the Hilly Dilly and like them, think it's worthy of everyone's attention. They don't say much about the artist other than his relation to a Brisbane group called MTNS as their manager. Subtle and sweet is a brilliant way to get listeners to tune in and it's some of the best stuff I've heard yet. Some of being, one of hundreds of things I listen to, so I'll be saying that about a lot of stuff. If you've already hit play before you started reading this, than you're probably already feeling the affects. From what I know so far, that's his entire EP debut so keep listening.
Native Lights (Hominy, OK)
These guys are our neighbors and their drummer Nathan Phillips has been here more than a few times with BRONCHO. The Native Lights were supposed to be playing with Ethereal and the Queer Show yesterday but had to cancel so we'll catch them next time.

That kind of sound is the reason I can't hate on middle-America. They're certainly inspired. Must... hear... more!
Paperwhite (Brooklyn, NY)

This is a brother and sister duo that's rising to the top of the indie charts. As far as I know, Arjan Writes blogged about them first (correct me on that. You know what... don't.) When pop music like this pops on the blog-o-sphere, it's got a tendency to pop even louder later on, so get on this.

When I first listened to this track, there was no label on it to know who was singing it. To my surprise it's one of the most beautiful women alive, actor Minnie Driver. Obviously she needs no introduction and she certainly doesn't need help to promote shit. I'm certainly not in the ranks to do so but let the record show, that I love the shit out of this thing. Rest in peace Elliot Smith.
