A vivid rendition of an ageless sound with fresh flourishes.
Reviews
“Pop-hip-house.” “Liquid-bmore-house-step.” “Rave-garage.” Just when you thought the UK house scene could not possibly concoct anymore arbitrary sub-genres, along frolics our faux ursine duo drafting an indietronica doctrine for world peace.
Onwards to the Wall is loud, it’s really loud, it’s five walls of sound that each feel like they’re collapsing in a slow-motion earthquake.
Once a Dum Dum Girl, a Vivian Girl and even a Crystal Stilt, Frankie Rose is now doing her own thing, doing it darn well. On February 21 she will…
This is the album we’ve been waiting for, Air’s grand return to the cosmos, the proper follow-up to Moon Safari.
Ten$ion presents a group that, for the moment, has eschewed evolution in order to enjoy its transition to success.
Tennis’ follow-up to last year’s lovely Cape Dory isn’t out until February 14, but the band has put the entire record up on SoundCloud to stream. Enjoy.
A full week before its February 14th release date, Islands’ newest record, A Sleep & A Forgetting is available online for your streaming pleasure. If you haven’t already, grab a…
Sharon Van Etten’s tender third LP, Tramp, produced by The National’s Aaron Dessner, is the best of this young year.
Once again, Kevin Barnes gives us crystallizing glimpses of raw emotion, smothered with superfluous noise. Taken in context, this album may be his best work yet. Take it out, you might as well be blind to what you’re staring right at.
Some moments are stronger than others, but Lindstrøm has created really fun, relistenable electro-disco that tenaciously refuses to be boring or predictable.
Sébastien Tellier will follow-up 2008′s Daft Punk-produced Sexuality with My God is Blue, due out on April 16. Of the album, Tellier has this to say: “Don’t listen to my…
You know about New Build, the brand new project of Hot Chip’s Al Doyle and Felix Martin and their sometime producer Tom Hopkins – you’ve no doubt heard their collaborations…
Rufus Wainwright has announced, Out of the Game, his 7th studio album. The album will be produced by Mark Ronson, who is best known for his work with Amy Winehouse…
It would be difficult to come up with a better title for ScHoolboy Q’s second album, Habits & Contradictions. It’s a calming album at times, but leaves the listener’s pulse racing, even after 17 tracks and over an hour of music.
A year after The White Stripes call it quits, Jack White announces ‘Blunderbuss.’ Listen to first single “Love Interruption” now.
Thank heavens these old ideas never cease to create art worth learning from.
Pop’s iconic fairy godmother, Madonna, fresh off an unexpected win at the Golden Globes for Best Original Song, has offered details for her forthcoming 12th studio album, MDNA. The album,…
Most people — let’s call them The Lucky Ones — live in blissful ignorance of Lana Del Rey and the insufferable debate she has ignited. If you know her name, you’ve already entered the fray, however unwittingly.
Porcelain Raft’s jockeying between maximalist, synthesized chamber indie, hazy dance music, borderline art-dubstep chopped-and-screwed beats and drones, and mixtape-closing reverby guitar pop make Strange Weekend endlessly compelling, fascinatingly layered, and never predictable.
