New Music MachinePicked your summer jam yet?

Weather's getting warmer, days are getting longer – time to load up on some sunscreen, flip-flops and tunes.  So, have you got your jam for the Summer of 2011.

One candidate may be this guitar-driven, hazy tune from Big Troubles. This wave of fuzzed out guitars and reverb soaked vocals may be perfect for those hot, humid afternoons ahead.  You can download the track from the widget below –

If that doesn't fit the bill, I'll be playing likely candidates from Battles, Gang Gang Dance, Soft Metals, Bachelorette, Gold Bears, Robert Pollard, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Amor De Dias, Damon & Naomi, and Bon Iver.

By the way, I'm going to be featuring a free MP3 each week.  Come back next week to check it out.  Also, feel free to leave any comments or suggestions below.
