In less than a couple of weeks, the internet has unearthed three new Keane tracks. This last one to leak, “Better Than This,” continues to channel Brandon Flowers’ more annoying serenades on Hot Fuss. There are two sides of Hot Fuss, the half that is extraordinary and mind-blowing, and the half that is bitterly underwhelming. [...]
I abso-fucking-lutely loved the first sweet taste of TV ON The Radio’s next brilliant opus Dear Science, –the title itself alludes to a punny album, no?– wel, Dear Science taste number two isn’t as sweet as “Golden Age,” but is far from bitter. Very far.
“Dancing Choose” is a hectic, urgent mess of greatness. I have [...]
When some anonymous tipster emailed the .zip file for Fall Out Boy’s new mixtape, Welcome To The New Administration, I almost didn’t want to open it. No, I’m lying I opened it in a second. This new mixtape acts as a progenitor to Fall Out Boy’s fourth album Folie A Deux (another 2008 release I’m [...]
Here’s another ‘Jockin’ Jay-Z’ remix. This Teen Wolf remix inspires a bit of hard hipster dancing, quite a change from the old school homage we received with Rob Low’s remix. Frankly, this isn’t as good and the beat sounds do get annoying and you get this odd relief after the four minutes are up.
Second and [...]
I always feel stupid when I hear a song on the radio and I don’t know what it is. Especially when I hear Lil Wayne on it. I was listening to Power 106 yesterday afternoon and THIS thumping bunch of amazing came on. I had no idea what it was. Googling up the hook, I [...]
Does anyone else think T.I.’s Paper Trail (out September 30th) is going to be the best rap album of the year?
So far, TIP’s cuts are impressing me a bit more than Weezy ever did with Tha Carter III — and Weezy never got that brilliant Rihanna feature on one of his tracks, come on Weezy, [...]
Santogold remixes never cease to amaze me — rather, Chew Chocolate Cookies (CCC) are constantly bringing the fire! I sort of went bananas when I found out that Trashbags given the word to official drop this joint digitally. This has to be one of CCC’s best remixes to date. Are You Ready? COOOKIES!

The official “next single” off of Keane’s forthcoming album, “The Lovers Are Losing” was played in British radio recently, and PMA reader Joseph has just sent me the radio rip. The quality isn’t that great, but the song itself sounds like a gem.
Like their free digital single “Spiraling,” “The Lovers Are Losing” still reminds me [...]
Here’s a preview of what is to be expected from Boys Noize later on. Remixing “Focker” will definitely be massive, but I think I’ve heard better remixes– for example, this Phrenzy remix. I guess we will have to wait for the full Boys Noize cut. via The Lemur Blog via Hyperbole.

The Chemical Brothers have been M.I.A. for the longest while — but they’ve been making the regular blogrounds with their Oasis remix and the overly-publicized and equally amazing Soulwax remix of “Hey Boy, Hey Girl.” But this joint here features a quite charming collaboration with the NME approved blipster Spank Rock. (Was included in that [...]
