June in Barcelona is nothing less than magical, with the streets of the ancient city awash in golden light and the sun browned Spaniards and visitors sipping sangria at outdoor cafés and dancing the night away beside the Mediterranean. Add to this setting the multitude of the best DJs, producers, and electronic slanted bands in the world who flock to the city as part of Sonar festival, and you've got the perfect recipe for the best week of your life. The warm energy of the city melts seeps into the festival grounds and permeates the air, spreading a glow through [...]
Baths - " Maximalist " Directed by Michael Shainblum Baths - Facebook Baths - Homepage

All Photographs by Jan Kucic-Riker Primavera Sound is an overwhelming and vastly stimulating music pilgrimage made each year to Barcelona, Spain. Over two hundred bands across eleven stages and timetables that schedule sets well past five in the morning make the musical mecca a monstrous undertaking. Fortunately, 140,000 music lovers joined me over the course of the three main days and two satellite events to dance, sing, and even swim at the Parc del Fòrum and Poble Espanyol. The eclectic line-up saw everything from unabashed hip-hop to captivating folk ballads and electronic DJ sets. Though the scheduling [...]

So way back in April (yeah, if you think about it, that actually was kind of a while back in blog time), we posted the latest track from the UK's Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs aka TEED. The track was " Trouble " and it followed in his line of bumpin beats that were pretty characteristically his (or should I say, that belonged to him). This one was especially 8-bit sounding (or more like 16-bit SNES style) and almost sounds like a really fantastic version of one of those beats that would come pre-programmed on a keyboardread [...]

Just a week ahead of their first anniversary party at the Echoplex here in Los Angeles, FoF Music has released a free sampler featuring many of the artists that will be performing at the show next Saturday, including Groundislava, Salva, Shlohmo, Baths, Mexicans With Guns and JonWayne. The I'll Be Your Friend sampler is arranged quite nicely and somehow manages to encapsulate the label's wide array of stand-out producers, from the edgier techno-driven sounds of Mexicans With Guns to the more downtempo, ambient style of Shlohmo. Even if the sampler isn't quite your taste, you [...]

As the festival circuit grows more crowded with each lineup announcement and ticket sell-out, it's never been more essential that a music fest provide more than just music and fun in the sun, offering everyone - from casual music fans to the hardcore festival aficionado - a consistently fresh and rewarding experience. Judging by the manner with which its organizers have been forging their very unique identity since 1996, Lightning in a Bottle is surely one of the finest festivals around, combining a festival experience unlike any other (where else could you find electro-superstar Pretty Lights, fire-dancers, and a lecture on [...]

This week's snack is the king of biscuits - the Toffypop . If you're struggling through a hangover today, I recommend a double pack of these badboys to see you through. Now onto the tunes.. All City Dublin have an excellent reputation for high quality releases from the likes of Hud Mo , Martyn and Onra . This time however, they have unearthed a new UK talent called Tessela . The tune "Push" has an old skool synth overcoat the big heavy bass boots. Its full of sharp production [...]

Fans of electronic [...]
He's come back with not technically his sophomore release but a collection of unreleased songs or B-sides, like it says in the title
Baths is one weird dude. Unleashing "Pop Song" on his Facebook not long ago, the man describes it as a "sketch". I would have to say that is much more than that, bearing a load of emotion and texture that Will Weisenfeld has become known for. Along with that, he also dropped Pop Songs / False B-Sides on iTunes , which is a collection of more unreleased goodness that Baths had hidden in the vault. Stream "Pop Song" or download after the skip. Download: Baths - "Pop [...]

Baths este un proiect muzical al unui puşti de 21 de ani din Los Angeles , numit Will Wiesenfeld . După ce la 4 ani lua clasicele lecţii de pian susţinute de părinţi, la 13 ani ajunge să simtă un alt gust al muzicii odată cu prima audiţie Bjork . In scurt timp işi înfiinţează primul proiect muzical, [Post-Foetus], cu care scoate 4 albume. In 2009 începe proiectul Baths , iar în 2010 lansează primul album numit Cerulean . E un album optimist, jucăuş, puţin nostalgic, plin de [...]

Bon Iver - Calgary Clutching on cliffs, crossing over. Over cracks in the clay, we spread, out. Crossing over. And lie back, on my back, and look back, we looked back, at the sea washing against the clay cliffs. And I said I don't feel like falling, You said You agreed. And I said I don't feel like standing in this sea, knee-deep, with nothing to clutch, to hold onto, You said You felt the same. So we climbed the crumbling cliffs, and curled, and cared for our [...]
