When melancholy cartoons go to heaven

Montreal’s Young Galaxy are about to release their third album Shapeshifting this Tuesday (February 8th, 2011) on Toronto’s Paper Bag Records. In preparation the 4-piece have dropped the very charming Sinbad Richardson directed video above for “We Have Everything”. The song, like the eleven-track album, was produced by Dan Lissvik, known for collaborations with Fever […]

Featuring Gucci Mane, Green Velvet, Carte Blanche and more

Chicago’s favorite mic-warping party stopper Kid Sister (aka Melisa Young) just dropped her new mixtape Kiss Kiss Kiss via Fool’s Gold today. Blended by Fool’s Gold co-founder Nick Catchdubs, the mixtape features collabs with Gucci Mane, plus beats supplied by everyone from legendary house producers like Green Velvet to modern day mixing board maestros Carte […]

More electro rinsed hip-hop from the Prince of Montreal

I don’t know if it’s because it’s mad gloomy in Los Angeles today (at the beach, anyway) or if it’s just because it’s Monday but I’m having a very hard time motivating with work today. Luckily the music gods have been kind this morning, delivering us that Free Energy video and now this: A-Trak’s brand […]

The lost sons of Montreal return with "Invisible Girl"...then get arrested in Kentucky. Man, what a horrible twist in fate...

UPDATE: It seems our favorite animal-dressing Montréalais rockers can’t seem to stay out of trouble — either that or their reputation precedes them. Regardless, last week they had to cancel a series of tour dates when they failed to show up at a St. Louis show. Well, it turns out that was because they were […]
