I just caught wind of a little festival Underwater Peoples is hosting in upstate New York this July called Mountain Man Fest. The lineup includes performances by D.I.D. favorites Islands, Health, Memoryhouse, Phantogram, Alex Bleeker and the Freaks, Real Estate and Summer Camp. This is one of the best lineups I’ve seen in years. I’m [...]
Mexican Summer/G vs B SXSW
Washed Out, Real Estate, JJ, Mountain Man, and Memory Tapes all at one party? This is way too good to be true. Looks like Dipped in Dollars will be spending a lot of time at the Mexican Summer/Gorilla vs Bear showcase at SXSW. Washed Out – Luck Real Estate – Pool Swimmers JJ – Ecstasy [...]
Real Estate, Suburban Dogs Animation
Up-and-coming artists Max Darham and Tyler Weedon have collaborated on an animation for Real Estate‘s Suburban Dogs. Things are uncertain if this is will be the official video for the song, but I had an opportunity to speak with Tyler about their process. …… Chief: What led you to pick Suburban Dogs for your animation? [...]
BreakThru Radio
Dipped in Dollars has been enjoying a week long feature on BreakThru Radio, where you can now listen to/download our “Anatomy of a Blogger” radio show. We picked a lot of our favorite songs of the year and weaved them together with Danger Dome/Chief interviews over Comanche beats. We tried to make it something you [...]
Real Estate full length
So here at D.I.D., we’re huge supporters of Real Estate. Their tunes are so dreamy, and the release of their full-length album has hijacked my week. This album is so easy to listen to on repeat, and almost demands it, each time different subtle nuances rise to the surface. There is a familiarity within their [...]
Real Estate / Girls, Live @ The Black Cat
Tuesday night, I found myself at The Black Cat once more, to check out the show where Jerseyians Real Estate were opening for Girls. What a perfect show for a weekday night! Real Estate kicked it off, opening to a considerable crowd, who all seemed pleased to see them. As my friend Ali described it, [...]
Real Estate/Twigz
I’ll never forget the first time that Alex Bleeker approached me about engineering a show for his band Real Estate. He told me it was their third gig, and they really just wanted to sound like they were underwater. Since then, Real Estate have found themselves on some big sites and considered pioneers of the [...]
WHO WE ARE
Dipped in Dollars (D.I.D.) is the brainchild of Chief and Danger. While attending a crazy liberal arts college in Vermont, we realized our mutual love of righteous dance music, art, and the people behind them. D.I.D. exists to share this love with you and hopefully turn you on to something new. More about the brains behind the brawn, here.
This site exists to promote artists, if you hear something you like, think about throwing the artist(s) a few dollars, buy an album, go to a concert, show them you care. If any artists or official people want us to take any of our links down, just shoot us an email and we'll take care of it. Happy Listening!
