Wild Nothing's Jack Tatum turns nothing into something wild

Wild Nothing is the musical vehicle of Blacksburg, Virginia’s Jack Tatum, and it’s justifiably finding its way to music lovers through their debut album Gemini, which was released May 25th on Captured Tracks.

L.A. Shakedown brings Derrick Carter, DJ Heather and Mark Grant to the City of Angels

Tonight Los Angeles is being invaded by Chicago…house music, that is. Our old friend Noriega — who Madman’s been crashing clubs with since he was a wee speck in JNCO’s and Freshjive tees — and her ART2 crew have put together L.A. Shakedown at Vanguard in Hollywood. The night features 3 legitimate main room DJs, […]

You're better off punching yourself in the face while listening to Pet Sounds

Madman Mundt just caught a screening of the upcoming film Pirate Radio. He didn’t like it. There are exactly two reasons to sit through the upcoming Pirate Radio, and luckily for the producers both appear ubiquitously throughout the film. The first is the late 60’s rock soundtrack that Focus pictures has somehow collected, which is […]

The Major is a Busy Guy

Like we said, Major Lazer has been on a tear lately — hanging with Angelina and Jack, and posting naked pics of Rihanna (kind of a dick move, btw, Lazer). Well I guess he’s finally getting to work battling all those zombies and vampires he claims to hate. Someone videotaped his exploits and put them […]
