Really surprising more artist haven’t spoken out about the unwarranted surveillance and wiretapping of U.S. citizens by the NSA — I guess when the musical landscape consists of mainstream schlock, KISS dribble and corporate teet suckers you’re really not gonna find much resistance (whattup Jay-Z!). YACHT feels differently. The duo is donating 100% of the […]

Kick off your weekend the right way with a killer, hour-long dance and techno mix from DFA Records‘ one and only, The Juan MacLean (John MacLean).

Last week we previewed LCD Soundsystem’s “Drunk Girls” (then) upcoming video with a trailer, mostly because we were anxiously fiending for their set last Friday at Coachella. Well our faith was rewarded, and now we’re even more anxiously awaiting their upcoming This Is Happening LP (out May 18 on DFA) —let’s hope it’s not the […]
