As part of the release of Digcast X, the third installment of my NYC music series, as well as the upcoming TWD showcase on Friday 3/22, I'm doing feature posts on each band in the podcast. We start today with Beat Radio, the duo of Brian Sendrowitz and Brian Ver Straten and other collaborators.

It's time to check out a bunch of the tracks I have not posted recently. These are just a few of the songs that would get their own individual posts here on GIMME TINNITUS if I only had the time. Here is the next NOT POSTED mix. Listen. Downloadables: Toe Cutter - Thumb Buster (mp3) by Thee Oh Sees Dirty Shirt (mp3) by METZ [d/l the eMusic SXSW 2013 Free Sampler @ [...]
The breadth of new 2013 music releases - albums, EPs and singles - that have been coming out in recent weeks, and those set to drop in the ensuing months, have been keeping us very busy, especially when you factor in all of the DIY releases that we receive on a weekly basis, which are [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe

Another day, another discovery post. It just happens my computer is currently functioning like it had a stroke (I have to type very slowly and very deliberately). So, I won't be writing much today about the discoveries to be had below, but they are good. Check them out and, as always, support the artists. Look forward to a playlist at the end of the month featuring the ten best discovery finds in February!

It's a big week for new releases, so let's get right into it. First thing on your shopping list: Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds ' latest, Push The Sky Away . Fifteen albums in and Cave & Co. still create unique stunners. As our Music Director, Don Yates, says, it's "a masterful set of brooding, minimalist rock comprised of mostly slow-burning songs with rumbling guitars, mournful keyboards, eerie violin loops, stately rhythms and dark, evocative lyrics." So not so much the heavy rock of his Grinderman project, but if you're a fan if his ballads (and the [...]

If I were to write this week's rundown of new releases without mentioning Beat Radio 's Hard Times, Go! , I'd probably have a few friends upset with me (and I'm not talking about people in the band even!), so let's get that one out of the way first, shall we? And speaking of friends who are in bands, we must also mention records from Dan Friel , My Gold Mask , and Miracles of Modern Science . Well, so far this week's column feels like it's all about who you know, so how about [...]

This week brought glimpses of spring's upcoming comotion in our crystal ball forecasts, otherwise known as pop news feeds. Warner Bros purchased Parlophone from Universal to the astronomical tune of a sweet $765 mil. James Blake dropped word of a new album and got all "Retrograde" on us. Phoenix got their mits on the console used for Michael Jackson's Thriller to record their forthcoming album, Bankrupt! We also got Autechre's new album Exai a month early than expected...

Since the release of their first full-length album, The Great Big Sea , back in 2006, Beat Radio has unsurprisingly developed a loyal and passionate following. Last year, the band set out to produce what they referred to as an “expansive, adventurous concept record," which they were able to fund thanks to their fan base and Kickstarter. The result is the band’s fourth album, Hard Times, Go!. The sonic manifestation of their vision follows in the hazy footsteps of 2010’s Golden Age , but has more of a pop [...]

Beat Radio: HARD TIMES, GO! - Beat Radio is the intricate inner workings of Brian Sendrowitz. With the help of friends and other artists, Sendrowitz has recorded songs with true Indie style, everywhere from bedrooms to basements. Their first full length, The Great Big Sea was released in 2006, and with the release of the fourth full length LP HARD TIMES, GO! it is clear that Beat Radio is a presence not to be ignored. It is best to listen, at least for the first time, to HARD TIMES, GO! [...]

Last month we premiered Beat Radio 's tender acoustic cover of Japandroids' mosh pit anthem "The House That Heaven Built," and that was a bit of a hit around here, so we figured we'd share another. For his Hard Times Go, Part I EP (free), Brian Sendrowitz threw in this cover of one of our favorite songs in recent years, Robyn 's "With Every Heartbeat." It starts off like a day at the carnival before becoming the full-throated thumper you'd imagine [...]

i settled in slowly, to this house that you call home t o blood and breath, fear, flesh and bone ♫ Beat Radio - The House That Heaven Built (Japandroids cover) Get down to the mellowed out Beat Radio ( remember them? ) cover of one of the years best songs or just go buck wild to the video. Normally clip videos are boring as shit but watching them rock the world and kick it off stage is strangely endearing. Plus, its video documentation of why theirs was of the [...]
