George FitzGerald’s ‘Burn’ is one of those tracks that is immediately gripping and after about a thousand listens, makes me confidently state that even in ten years’ time, when this song comes on you’ll still think to yourself, “Fuuuuuuuuuck that’s a good song.” George is back for what I assumed would be a round two […]
Following a steady upward rise in the ranks of electronic music, starting with his inclusion on an Anjunadeep compilation and culminating with his first BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix, it seems Yotto is ready and poised for the next big step in his career: a debut album. Titled ‘Hyperfall,’ the album sees some support in […]
Marian Hill is a duo on paper, but a trio in practice. As a duo, they fit in with a popular current mold of a plain looking dude twiddling knobs and hammering away at a drum machine/sampler with a coquettish female on vocals, in the same vain as AlunaGeorge and Sylvan Esso. It’s popular for […]
The Brooklyn-based duo known as Bob Moses, neither of which are named Bob or Moses, are back with a new track called ‘Heaven Only Knows’ along with an album and tour announcement. Don’t you just love these little bundles we get from artists? ‘Heaven Only Knows’ is pleasantly familiar territory for the band, featuring laid-back […]
You may not immediately recognize the name Sam Spiegel, but you will no doubt recognize his music. From his project N.A.S.A. alongside Brazilian DJ Zegon, featuring a host of highly unlikely but strangely functional collaborations (see: Tom Waits and Kool Keith or Karen O and Ol’ Dirty Bastard) to his more recent track ‘Mutant Brain’ […]
I realize it’s asking a lot to talk about “Summer’s Last Stand” when we haven’t even hit Memorial Day yet, much less summer, but hear me out. North Coast Music Festival is kind of the like the little festival that could. It’s not overstated in any way, it takes up a fraction of the footprint […]
Yesterday, Do Lab announced a contest in conjunction with The Grand Artique offering the opportunity to perform alongside Beats Antique‘s Lightning Orchestra performance at Lightning in a Bottle. They’ll be collecting video submissions from musicians and performance artists and will award the best in each category with a spot on-stage at the western frontier in […]
When I first laid eyes on the title and artwork for Lizzo’s new single, I imagined a song with a fairly rapid tempo that Jane Fonda may have worked out to back in the day. That is not what ‘Fitness’ sounds like, and that makes me happy because her version is so much better. However, […]
Prepare for liftoff, Jon Hopkins is back with new music to take you into space, deep into your subconscious, or possibly both. His new track, ‘Emerald Rush’ is his first release of any kind in three years and first original track since 2014. Along with the track’s release is news of his new album, his […]
Last week, React Presents released the lineup for Mamby on the Beach 2018 and in the process, they’ve proven Mamby to be the little festival that could. Hosted on a sandy lakefront beach, Mamby is a pretty fantastic festival experience, particularly for those who want the festival experience, but don’t want to sacrifice showering or […]
