LA homie Nite Jewel recently released a greatest hits album of sorts titled Gems that features this really nice demo for "Stay a Little Longer," but it's only available in Japan right now (or here if you feel like breaking out your Yen converter). So until it gets a US release enjoy the video and this preview download of "Stay."
Nite Jewel - Stay a Little Longer (unreleased)

food and shelter
Early 80s minimal synth/pop/tape collage group from LA. I think they were from Marina Del Rey, or at least their label was?
The album Square Dance (1984) came in a rad metal sleeve. "I Like Smog" comes from the Radio Tokyo Tapes vol. 2 compilation.
Food and Shelter - What is the Problem
Food and Shelter - Changing my mind
Food and Shelter - Nun With a Gun

talk with full mouth
Pizza! used to be the New Motherfuckers. The New Motherfuckers are now Pizza! They make nerdy playful hyper new wave, have two drummers, and play shows in the building I live in so sometimes I hear them from my bedroom.
Pizza! - Repress Yourself!
Pizza! - Houses
Pizza! - Hotlanta
The Avant-Garde Volkpenis (Pizza!) - Blue Moob
These are unmixed recordings from their Myspace, these songs sound better live.
Pizza! at Tiny Creatures last weekend:

xVOYx
Who needs a million dollar mixing board and a sound room as tight as a drum anyway? All you really need these days to crank out great music is an old toy synth, a crappy drum machine, a bass, a few good songs, and a free demo version of any recording program. If that formula doesn't wow the sneering music critics in the audience, dress yourself in nothing but khaki for seven years and see if that helps.
xVOYx made music and played shows in Los Angeles throughout 2004 and 2005. They self-released two EP's before splitting up last year, but re-band for the occasional secret show to appease their smallish but loyal cabal of fans. If you like these songs from their debut self-titled EP, head over to their myspace page to hear some tunes from the second EP.
xVOYx - Remorse
xVOYx - Cut 2 Me
xVOYx - Mutual Tooth + Claw
