Dirty Projector's "Little Bubble" Makes a Big Burst
SPIN

Some may be asking who The Dirty Projectors. Some may be saying "aren't they that band that released a video back in September?" The rest of us are hearing Paul Simon sing "Sound of Silence" right about now. Check out the newest song entitled "Little Bubble".


The video showcases frontman David Longstreth going through different environments all over the world. The use of lights and camera perspective is a quintessential DP video technique. The song itself is a beautiful ballad that you could play over and over. Its unique in the sense of that it doesn't build to anything, it just is.

For those of us who are new to the band, imagine Talking Heads meets New Order. It's this era of new-wave indie-rock that sets The Dirty Projectors apart since the early 2000's. They gained a lot of momentum in 2008 when they signed to Domino Records and in 2009 released their fifth full length record, "Bitta Orca" Since then, there have been two albums released collars with Bjork and David Byrnes (Talking Heads), and a short film called Hi Custodian, featuring songs many different albums and ep's. Check it out!

Things were quiet with the band over the past four years, until this past September when they released a song and video called "Keep Your Name". Now that there are two releases, maybe we will be seeing a release later this year? (fingers crossed). All I know is, I will have "Little Bubble" on repeat until their next release.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
