I don't know why it popped into my head the other day, but once it did I found it lodged there and pretty much immovable. I'm talking about 'Galaxy Of The Lost' by Lightspeed Champion . The song is a good few years old, and I haven't heard it in ages, so I'm not sure what triggered it. It got me me thinking to how much different stuff Dev Hynes has been involved in over the years, and how varied each of those guises are. He started out life as the guitar player in [...]

Fatigue tends to set in as SXSW presses on, but we cruised through day three at the FADER FORT Presented by Converse, warding off burnout with Stumptown cold brews and plenty of smartwater. The morning ... read more

Frank Yang As something of a SXSW veteran - eight years, now - one thing I try to explain to the newbs heading down to the big Texan throwdown is that there's simply so much happening at any given time that it's a mathematical certainty that you're missing something great. So don't sweat it, enjoy what you're at and don't try to do too much or it will cost you not far down the road. I think it's good advice, and for the first proper day of the festival, it's advice I probably should [...]
It really is time to dance. Past time in fact. Let's do it. Also, slo-mo cat's playing and remote controlled women. But also Angus Stone's wonderful music, despite a so-so video. -Matt

The moment I clicked on the ‘play’ button of the ‘Forget It’ music video from Blood Orange , the word low-fi sprang up in my mind instantly. Not only the sound of the song seems low-fi, but of course, the VHS-filmed music video adds to the thinking. ‘Forget It’ is bouncy and features melodic guitar riffs here and there. Towards the end of the song, some distorted guitar joins and fades. The beats shuffle in the background and the lightness of the song reminds me greatly of summer, which I reckon we all [...]
It's great when you get awesome tips from musicians you love, and so I was pleased to stumble upon Bleeding Knees Club when they were referenced by Dev Hynes...most recently of Blood Orange . They're just a duo, but they've got a pretty powerful bit of sound. Their record, Nothing to Do , just came out today, and surely they'll find a huge audience for themselves here in the States. I guess you could throw it into the pile with the rest of the garage rock genre, but [...]

New York | London Hello. My name is Devonte Hynes. I make music under various guises such as Blood Orange , Lightspeed Champion . and sometimes, just under my own name, but that tends to be for more compositional or scoring work. I grew up in London, which is where I spent the majority of my life up until 5 years ago, when I moved to New York City. My first foray into music was the [...]

Tweet vaso link Here is the video for "Forget It" from Blood Orange. Released on Valentine's Day last week, this video is yet another reminder of my need to further delve into the work of the outfit.

Frank Yang Just so we're clear, I am not stalking Veronica Falls . It's pure coincidence that I've seen the London-based band three times in the past year in three different countries - America , Canada , and Iceland - on two different continents. Really. Okay, it's not as though I was running into them on the street while they were playing - their self-titled debut was one of my favourites of last year (and barely missed my year-end list) so when the opportunity to see them live [...]
