Dr. Goldstein from Free Gold Watch’s new mix with Dr. Klaw. He says, “It picks up where Hard Crack Candy left off years ago (if you can remember) and zaps you into the futuristic era of the 80′s. I’m talking electro, boogie, rap, new wave, light speed, robots, aliens, androids, ET, Jeff Goldblum, Tron, R2D2, all that, and then some. It’s pretty much a game changer.”

A friend was recently extolling the virtues of local Oaklandite, Mara Hruby. She rocks a nice cover of D’angelo’s “Send it On” as well as songs from Stereolab, Bob Marley, and Jamiroquai on her release, “From Her Eyes”. You can check out more of her music on her bandcamp page. Incidentally, she’s also playing tonight at Yoshi’s Oakland…
