Nearly four years after the stellar (and grossly underrated) Sol-Angel and the Hadley St. Dream, Solange is back with a new song titled “Losing You.” The Dev Hynes and Ariel Rechtshaid-produced track beautifully links a chaotic mix of samples and handclaps to Solange’s airy and bittersweet voice. While her previous album did perhaps delve too […]
“As the tropical drums kick in, an evil presence (almost demonic) enters the club, unleashing a round of gunfire that leaves no survivors. There’s even a line which declares “sus cuerpos no saldrán en tele nacional, a nadie le importa, ganamos el mundial.” Unsettling, sure. But it definitely exposes the realities (and priorities) of the […]

Dan’s absurdist performances have frightened many morning show talk hosts and probably his parents. Sometimes it’s hard for people to respect Deacon as a serious musician, but he has […]

Former Makeout Videotape frontman Mac DeMarco first broke out in April with Rock And Roll Nightclub which was accompanied by a slew of off-the-wall iMovie promos and music videos.

French interview with electronic producer Leroy Bella aka Sines on his most recent EP and some of his musical influences.

After the success of Raven in the Grave, The Raveonettes are back, celebrating the release of their record Observator with a new video. “The Enemy,” just as the rest of Observator, has the Danish duo returning to form, coating new and and enticing guitar melodies with their signature fuzzed-out sound. Citing The Doors as a primary inspiration, The Raveonettes recorded […]
nprmusic: Grizzly Bear’s fourth album rewards listeners with strange surprises and a few hooky, expansive ringers. Along the way, it showcases the considerable gifts of four guys willing to hover patiently through the detours, without sacrificing the beauty that makes the journey worthwhile. Stream Shields now. No doubt this will be played on the station […]
