This is my most recent (and favorite) appearance on FUSE’s Hoppus On Music.We hit some substantial topics: Stereogum’s process for making lists (vis a vis our Albums Of The Year So Far), and why some sorts of pop resonate with indie readerships while others languish. Plus I learned that people will laugh at whatever you say as long as you are describing a Björk project. LIFE LESSONS.

MTV is relaunching 120 Minutes with Matt Pinfield, the series and host that shaped so many of our tastes for so many years back when that M stood for something meaningful. They’ve also launched the companion series 120 Seconds, which is, literally, a sign of the times. I was honored to be featured for its premiere last week. Matt and I sat in Hi-Fi bar on Ave. A in the East Village on the eve of SXSW and talked about new bands for oh about 120 minutes without stop — an easy thing to do with someone as gracious, engaged, and knowledgeable as he is. Lots of good talk and good bands didn’t make the cut, but such is the series’ conceit. Hope you enjoy. If not, it only cost you two minutes.

Here’s an “interview” I conducted for Dan Harris’s ABC series, AMPLIFIED, with a friend who just put out a terrific LP titled Marnie Stern, and a dog named Fig. We did it on their couch, on the Upper East Side. Dan Harris invited me to play the role of Dan Harris for a session, as he often does my friend Jessica Suarez. I suggested we feature Marnie, as she and I tend to discuss all manner of things, serious and ludicrous, musical and emotional alike. (A fair reflection of both our characters, really.) On this morning I was pensive and somber for various life-reasons, and for better or worse, that informed the tenor of this talk. Now, to speak with Marnie and not leave room for her hilarious synaptic gymnastics takes certain skill (read: lack there of). But as a result our “real talk” gives a glimpse at another side to Marnie, one that shapes and elevates her new album and makes her such a compelling artist and person. And that’s worth something? I was off my game, thankfully she never is.
We talk about this song. It’s thematically appropriate. And a serious jam.

Also if you are not, check in with dispatches from Marnie’s vagina (regarding her tour, presently underway) at vajamming.blogspot.com. Those are certainly worth something.
