Happy New Years & Free Download

As we look to 2010 and close out this decade, can’t but think how much things have changed in 10 years.

10 years ago people were still using dial-up, there were no iphones to update twitter, upload a picture on facebook, and music was something you had to go to a store and buy.

The one thing that has not changed is peoples need and desire for music. Music is everywhere; accesible anytime, anywhere and we can download it instantly. With tools such as Shazam, Blip.fm, Twitter, Facebook……discovering new and old classics have never been easier.

I’m excited for this upcoming year, as we have some great releases lined up with Matt Prehn, Jazzy Eyewear, Leo Poertela, Tres Queros, Neighbour, Anthony Mansfield, Dave Allison, Leon Louder, Angel Alanis Grant Dell and more.

Wishing you all the best for 2010 and may it bring much joy and prosperity to you, your friends, and family!

Thanks for the Headtunes support over the years.

We leave you with a free download of New Wave Hookers by Brenden Wesley.

Home Sweet House

Its been a while since we dropped a little blog.....where did the time go? It's that time of year when everything is so hectic with the holidays....but that's no excuse.

We'll be better in 2010.

We recently stumbled on this great mini-documentary on Chicago House Music with interviews with DJ's, Dancers, Record Store owners and other people that helped build the Chicago House scene.

Home Sweet House by: John Pappas

From the site:

"Home Sweet House" reveals a thriving Chicago house scene hidden in plain sight. From a footworking battle on the South Side to a night out at a legendary North Side club, the film takes viewers to the city's most hallowed house hotspots. Interviews with DJs, promoters, producers, dancers, and record store clerks--all set to a soundtrack of authentic underground Chicago tracks--answer the ultimate question that surrounds this legendary subculture: Why Chicago?
