En fullständigt lysande Animal Collective möter Cannial Ox -mix signerad NMB-favoriten Cassettes Won't Listen premiärades för ett par dagar sedan på XLR8R, och inte en dag för tidigt har jag nu omfamnat härligheten. Gör det du också, här (dl). Håll även utkik efter CWLs kommande fullängdare och/eller hans nya sidoprojekt Dfalt Cassettes Won't Listen - Vein
The concept of this project is beyond intriguing. Can Ox's The Cold Vein is classic, and EL-P's production is at his finest. Animal Collective and Cannibal Ox are about as different as it gets. Can Ox rises out of the synthetic chaos of NYC. The feel is cold, harsh, and devoid of hope. Animal Collective's [...]

I excuse a lot of a-rhythmical attempts at meshing the breakbeats of hip hop with hipster-celebrated stylings, but Cassettes Won't Listen's Animal Ox project should be accompanied by a collage medley of FAIL memes. Vast Aire, Vordul Mega and El-P will never make another record under the Cannibal Ox moniker. It's been difficult to stomach, given the debut classic that is The Cold Vein, but with time comes healing and acceptance. Of course, motherfucking Cassettes Won't Listen had to shit in...

A couple of weeks ago, we went to New Orleans for a friend's wedding. We had a chance to see the World War II museum and the fancy new wing that Tom Hanks helped contribute with and the new theater much cooler than an Imax (it's in 4D!). The picture from above is taken from the museum, and before the trip, I had no idea there was a WWII museum. I guess Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg are teaming up again to retell the story of the US invading the Pacific during [...]

Fresh from a year of releasing an instrumental album titled Into The Hillside , a free remix EP, Fremix , as well as countless remixes for bands such as Dappled Cities, The Dears, and Broken Spindles, Cassettes Won't Listen (Jason Drake) has returned with a brand new single titled "Perfect Day". It's kind of got an old school hip hop vibe to it that intermingles with the songs indie pop sensibility. The results are a funky little tune that has some nifty synth work and hooks that could catch whale sharks. [...]

♫ Cassettes Won't Listen - Quickly Approaching Yes, you have seen that album art before. It was attached to my ramblings on the title track. Since getting the full album it has basically been on all the time which is really weird because it's instrumental. Definitely not my usual steez. I figure it was fitting to quickly revisit it (and bait you into getting it with one more track) since the album is inspired by Jason Drake's move to Los Angeles, a city I will be departing today. Yup, back to Warsaw to [...]
Jump Clubb calls itself "an anonymous band from Beverly Hills," which sounds really suspicious since nobody from Beverly Hills is anonymous, or evens wants to be. The act — which we hear may involve this electronic artist and member of the Def Jux family — this week released its debut album, "The Love of No Dance," which might be the No Wave of electro if it didn't try so hard to be. Major Lazer, Passion Pit, Wolfmother and Peter Bjorn & John are among the contributors. It is dance-tastic, and the guy — whoever he [...]
