This new video, for "The Magic Clap" by the band The Clap, stars Patton Oswalt as the only man who can describe the "magic clap" in question. Edited with rapid-fire cuts, Oswalt acts out the lyrics to the song. Good luck getting this video and song out of your head for a while.

What started 7 years and now 250 show's ago is still going stronger than ever as Hot Tub Johnnie and the Hunnypot crew had one hell of a party last Monday night!
Before we got to the blazing DJ sets and performances by our special guests Thomas Golubic, Selena Arizanovic, Steve Poltz and The Moth and the Flame - Hot Tub Johnnie kicked the show off in classic Hot Tub fashion with upbeat bangers from REFLEX, Mayer Hawthorne/RAC Remix, Dragonette, Far East Movement, Kreayshawn and the new RiFF RaFF single/HP video pick "Jenny Craig".
Our first guest DJ of the night was music supervisor Selena Arizanovic, Nu Image/Millenium Films' go to lady for all things music. Selena prepared an exceptional set featuring some of her favorites, including a couple taken from her latest projects The Iceman and Playing For Keeps. Tracks from Terraplane Sun, Dion, L.J. Waiters and The Electrics, The Go-Getters, Galactic and much more all shined like gems as Selena stormed through her very 1st Hunnypot DJ Set! Be sure to keep eye's out for her new projects The Iceman (Richard Kuklinski), Lovelace (Linda Lovelace), Playing For Keeps and The Killing Season all due out late 2012 - early 2013.
Joining in the celebration was none other than Hunnypot favorite Thomas Golubic, the main musical genius behind AMC's drama classics Breaking Bad and The Walking Dead. Johnnie got Tommy G in the Hot Tub for a sweet interview session...where they looked back on the first 250 shows and even got Thomas to sneak out a few teaser tips for the upcoming episode of The Walking Dead. With that said Thomas also came ready with slammin' DJ set with nuggets from Mt. Wolf, KiD CuDi/King Chip, Azealia Banks, Kill Paris, ultraísta/Four Tet Remix and many more to hear!
We also had some smokin' live performances including a wildly pleasing headlining set from renowned singer-songwriter Steve Poltz. Steve brought fire to the stage on his Noineen Noiny Noin standouts "Check Your Head" and "Spirit Hands" and taking over the night with his freestyle tribute jam to Hunnypot's 250th show -- fantastic! Poltz also included a stellar rendition of his Jewel penned smash "Who Will Save Your Soul" where he gave insight to the entire back story on the song and his crazy trip with Jewel in Mexico. Be sure to pick up/download Steve Poltz' latest album Noineen Noiny Noin.
Utah based alternative rockers, The Moth and the Flame closed out the night with an emphatic performance, which included powerful showings of their standout gems "Lullaby II" and "How We Woke Up" taken off their self-titled debut album. 11/05/2012
Thomas is currently AMC's go to music guy for the hit TV series' The Walking Dead and Breaking Bad. Thomas is no stranger to the HPR airwaves and always brings some very special handpicked nuggets for us to groove to and who knows maybe even a little insight into the upcoming final 8 episodes of Breaking Bad.
Music supervisor for Nu Image/Millenium Films. Selena is one of the top supervisors in the field, having worked on blockbusters like The Expendables 1 & 2, Rambo, The Mechanic and many others. Her latest projects include the highly anticipated big screen bio-pics, The Iceman (Richard Kuklinski story) and Lovelace (Linda Lovelace story). This will be Selena's first ever Hunnypot DJ set and we couldn't be more happy to have her!
Southern California’s Steve Poltz is one of the most beloved songwriters of his generation. His music--as both a solo artist and with cult legends The Rugburns--has enjoyed long stretches in the Billboard top ten, gobbled up acres of mainstream radio and appeared in scores of television shows, commercials and movies. His latest release Noineen Noiny Noin is without reservation, the most absurdly-named, pulchritudinous, footstomping party of 2012. Poltz’ 13th full-length album is a wind-in-the-face joyride that takes on a jaw-dropping range of themes, including love, murder, Johnny Cash and transvestites. From top-to-bottom, Noineen Noiny Noin rocks, beguiles and entertains, opening like a flower with each new song. A wild, freakish-looking flower, but a flower, nonetheless.
This Utah based alternative rock band is the brainchild of Brandon Robbins and Mark Garbett and they're rapidly winning fans and critics to their unique sound which is easily described as "The National meets Radiohead". They captured the imagination of their hometown with an art installation of anthropomorphic giants that reached a towering 20ft in height. They also have recently released their album in physical form only (with no digital downloads) due to the importance they have placed on the Art. Since adding a second show to their sold out release The Moth & The Flame have built their following with a string of sold out shows in their hometown and have steadily begun branching out through the Western US. The Moth and The Flame were recently invited to do a showcase at MPMF 2012 Cincinnati alongside other big names Grizzly Bear, Andrew Bird, Sleigh Bells, The Walkmen, The Antlers etc.

In this new video for Hong Kong Dong's single "Yoko Oh No!" we are taken on a bizarre cartoon journey, that leaves us wanting more. In terms of lyrics videos, this one is seriously entertaining. Hailing from Belgium, this brother/sister duo recently released their debut album Sweet Sensations in May of 2012. Built around hard-hitting electronic beats and joyously absurd lyrics it is sure to get you moving.

Australian based indie EDM artist/DJ, Flume is one of the top selling electronic artists in AU at the moment with this #1 smash single “Sleepless” (feat. Jezzabell Doran). Harley Streten, a.k.a. Flume, told Rolling Stone - "I woke up feeling super inspired and smashed the whole song out in one day. The tracks I treasure the most always seem to be the quickest to write." The song is pure sublime, a smoothly laced electronic jam with heavy bass and soothing vocals - perfect for a party or those chilled out moments, when you want to get away. You can catch Flume live tonight on Hunnypot Radio, as he will be joining us for a brief interview and exclusive live performance from The Central: Social Aid & Pleasure Club in Santa Monica.

DJ Boom Shack started the night off with a soothing new track "Soak It Up" by Houses out Chicago, which lead way into the brand new single "On/Off The Ledge by ROBOTANISTS. The highlights though were Starfuckers "Bury Us Alive" and LA hip-hop newcomer Reason with "Life Of A Star (feat. Raz)", as well as "Keepin It Gangsta" the latest from Gzus Piece. For the complete track list check to the right.
Our first special guest was none other than Jerry Davis of Fox Sports. The 28 year music industry veteran and pioneer came on the show and shut it down. Jerry spoke on his great career touching on his work at ASCAP where he helped guide some of today's most well known hip-hop artists like Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, Too Short and more! Jerry's set list was a compilation of the music that he says played a huge role for him as he was learning the game. His set included classics from Run D.M.C., Megadeth, Earth Wind & Fire and more.
Our final guest DJ was DJ Broadway straight out of Pasadena. Broadway came in with some pounding bass, spinning some classic old school hip-hop, r&b/ soul. A lover of hip hop, DJ Broadway began at Loud Records working A&R bringing us the likes of The Alkaholiks and Xzibit. The highlight of the night was "Bonita Applebum" as Broadway's bass had the room shaking with bottles hitting the ground!
We closed the night out with a classic sing-a-long from The Walker Brothers "The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine (Anymore)". 01/24/22011
