In 2008 I was sent by the now-defunct BPM magazine to Berlin and Vienna to document the emerging Future Bass movement percolating from the dank basements of those Teutonic capitals. While Modeselektor proved to be the most successful of all the acts from that scene, many were making amazing music — including Jahcoozi, The Tape, Chris Deluca vs […]
Bristol producer Eats Everything (Daniel Pearce) has released a remix of the iconic Sono track “Keep Control” in preparation and hype for his upcoming U.S. tour. Although the producer’s music fits under the umbrella of house, it’s not a limited soundscape. Pearce involves elements of jungle, breakbeats, UK bass and Detroit techno into his music […]
If you remember, we introduced you to Omaha, Nebraska’s 90’s electro synth-pop trio Icky Blossoms with a To Whom It May Concern Q&A a few days ago. Per usual, we’ve bringing more good news about the band: you can now stream their entire debut self-titled album — which was produced by the highly coveted Dave […]

Australia’s Bleeding Knees Club play simple, no frills, direct-to-the-gut pop punk. We heard their track “Teenage Girls” — a straightforward 2-minute ditty about chicks, gum, smoking weed out of an apple pipe and the perfect age for nubile love — and were hooked. So we interviewed them. Their debut EP Virginity dropped last month on […]
We were taken at first listen by the latest track from ANR (Awesome New Republic), the hurricane and natural disaster-inspired “It’s Around You” single. The University of Miami, School of Music duo — comprised of Brian Robertson (Keys, Vocals) and Michael-John Hanock (Vocals, Drums) — craft infinitely catchy songs built on synth riffs, swooning vocals and melodic […]
