Imagine someone recording snow as it hits the pavement, turning the timbre way down low and the volume way up and you might have goste’s new EP “Eugene”. The acclaimed Brooklyn-based experimental electronic artist is currently wrapping up a tour that took him from the gusty north Williamsburg heart of his home base in Brooklyn to the depths of Boston’s […]
Ever since seeing Django Unchained over the holidays, we’ve had a lot of Quentin Tarantino on the brain. Not only did I watch Pulp Fiction again recently, but I already lined up Jackie Brown on the old Netflix queue. What can I say, it’s one of my favorites. But as good as all of the above […]

After Nicki Minaj’s headscratching (and rather uncreative) performance in this week’s Grammy’s, Kate Moss takes a similar roll in what the Catholic League will surely find hilarious. Whether panty-flashing […]
Manga and bass-obsessed DJ/producer Submerse has been making waves recently with his self-professed “garage, bassline, 2-step, house, jpop” sound, a blend I cannot help fall in love with. Thank god for the resurgence of 2-step, an under-explored and too quickly passed on sub-genre of the fin de millenium — it’s great to be living in […]
