Welcome to another sector of the Derogatory Term, Soo I guess this is where it all begins... looking back through all of the posts on this blog has been one of the best adventures musically I have ever witnessed. Getting to see how the scene has changed over the past decade (Well close to it). Not only that but the constant evolving taste of music Jimps & Adso has developed over the duration has been something that really grabs my attention.. This is where I come in. My name is [...]

Correspondent Sigourney McCleaf of Philadelphia TV station WPHL admitted to "a little bit of a tongue twat" as she was at a loss for words during her report on a recent Phillies game. One YouTuber caught her slip-up in action below for posterity's sake, elevating the sports reporter's name from a local news beat to 15 minutes of Internet fame. Sigourney, welcome to the big leagues. h/t FunnyLocalNews Follow @BrianAbrams

This one comes straight from Eton Messy 's library of producers. Sent to us directly from Jake Manson, one half of Blonde out of Bristol, UK. You may be familiar with Eton Messy's youtube channel , where he's hosted a wide buffet of newcomers' and veterans' brand new material on a somewhat daily basis. He's capitalized on the market for bass-driven, sweet female vocal or just downright soulful vocals. Back to Blonde: their latest contribution came in through the tails of Applebottom's free [...]

There's music that makes you wanna move and then there is music that makes you feel moved. I came across "I Loved You" from Blonde about a month ago courtesy of Eton Messy's Soundcloud and felt I had found a song that does both. "I Loved You" not only made my blood tingle and my head bob, but it made me feel things. Happy things. Sexy things. Empowerment. After riding out my emotional glow, I decided I wanted more Blonde…and to my excitement, I struck gold. I had the pleasure of a bit of dialog with Blonde and got to [...]

★★★☆☆ Nearly ten years since the first Involver compilation and five since volume two, Sasha’s Balearic teaching is still resonant and relevant. Building, taking his time, showing clubbers where to go and what to do when the sun begins its descent, he of a golden age of superstar DJs works up a deep tech house session with as much relish for loosening up and keeping going. Effortlessly fluent, personally guiding the sun down himself like an airport marshal, Sasha’s set hums sagely while a wiry girly or candle flickering vocal usually wraps [...]

There may not be too many blogs out there that count a melody reminiscent on Len's one-hit-wonder 'Steal My Sunshine' as a massive plus point. But we do. Oh golly we do. That's because 'Blonde' - the new single from Northen Ireland foursome Wonder Villains - has that unescapable summer vibe. The bounce, the optimism. It is the younger, Bacardi Breezer swilling younger sister of the afformentioned Len track. The Derry group's debut album is being prepped for an early summer release.

Did I just press play on 'You Can Call Me Al'? That was my very first thought when I pressed play on Wonder Villains' new single 'Blonde'. It's that keyboard you see; that infectious line that runs throughout its just over two-minute running time. And two minutes is all the [Read more]

Continuing the countdown to my favorite record of 2012, today I present numbers 11 through 20. Honorary Mention: Trails And Ways I've already dubbed Trails And Ways one of my favorite new bands of 2012. This statement comes with a disclaimer, as there are plenty of phenomenal new bands scattered throughout my top EPs and LPs lists for 2012: by far my favorite new band without a proper release. With a lone 73 single (I believe) and a few digital singles under their belt (including strong [...]
Favorite Music Videos of 2012 (Alex) There was no way I was going to be able to watch all the music videos released this year. I liked so many different videos for so many different reasons it seemed silly to try and rank them. That's why I have presented my first year-end list (several more to come) alphabetically. The reasons I liked music videos this year was for a wide variety of reasons, ranging from the ones that might not have made the list [...]
Covers come in all shapes and sizes (including Spongebob Squarepants bed covers). In the music world the most frequent are, of course, acoustic performances - and those also happen to be those with the lowest recording quality (ie, they suck). So, it's nice when a band actually sits down and goes through the motions of properly recording and producing their own rendition of someone else's work. This playlist highlights 10 of the best covers that we've featured on Indie Shuffle in the last year, including multiple appearances by Radiohead and Neal Young. The genres are diverse, [...]
