The Samples is a band of real musicians with way cool songs that groove. None of the recordings sound "produced". Every song is low-fi or no-fi. But there is a quality of authenticity and consistency that is special.
The Samples - When It's Raining
This video is contains audio from underproduced concert footage from 1988 - but through the low fi recording is a great band that jams hard.
The two songs below reminds me of a burrito rolled up with some Peter Gabriel, Neil Young, Paul Simon and The Police mixed in. But it's all original. These guys jam their tails off.

This is one of those indie spirits, Jeb Corliss, also known as the Flying Man. He is a daredevil who wears a flying squirrel suit and jumps off big cliffs and out of planes and eventually ends up back on land. Corliss stars in this fantastic thrilling video entitled Grinding The Crack, set to the AWOLNATION song entitled Sail.

This artist from the Republic of Mali in Africa takes me to another dimension when I turn it up, close my eyes and lay back. The videos are kind of corny, but I do love the photography that captures bits of the Malian spirit. The music is authentic, resonating something beautiful and might just provide psychic restoration if that's what you need.
