I was in a thrift store today and heard this song playing over the speakers. I immediately recognized it from somewhere, but couldn't pinpoint exactly where, so I asked the gal behind the register for the name. Apparently we were on the same wavelength, because she said she had just written down the name after having asked someone else. I remembered why I recognized the song though: Kate Bush. Both are oddly similar, but I personally prefer this one a little bit more. It's catchy and fun, but it still captures that older sound. The vocals are creative too, just [...]

With a smooth vocal and sexy instrumentation there's no denying George Benson 's Give Me The Night is a stone cold classic! It's no secret we love a re-edit of a classic here on Hard Candy, so it's therefore our pleasure to present a fine one provided by Chrome Canyon ! This doesn't stray too far from the original but there are just enough tweaks to make it interesting. It's the perfect tune to groove to on an otherwise fairly dull [...]

Not to be confused with avant-soul group Ava Luna (who played our 29th issue party last night), Avan Lava is an electronic Brooklyn band that seems to find inspiration in Prince's mix of dancy tunes and irresistible soul melodies, sung in a vocal range alternating from tenor to falsetto. This is music with the potential to animate a lot of upcoming parties, check them out tonight (02.25) at Mercury Lounge for their CD release party. Opening, Chrome Canyon , formed by ex members of legendary Apes & Androids, which were featured on the cover of The Deli's [...]

If you're a fan of shitty movies, then you know that Chrome Canyon's video for "Computers of Love" borrows footage from one of the worst of all time -- The Lawnmower Man . Originally labeled Stephen King's The Lawnmower Man , loosely based on a Stephen King short story, the movie was so awful and so far removed from the King story that he demanded his name be removed from it. Chrome Canyon has used the film's scenes of early virtual reality CGI (expensive stuff back in the day) to compile his new video. Watch [...]

France's On The Fruit Records are killin' it right now. They are pumping out quality release after release and the next up is no exception.

Welcome back TBE vets and greetings, bonjour, buenas noches, shalom, what's happening TBE infants. First, we're grateful for everyone of you. Second, we have a slight change in the Remix Roundup methodology I wanted to let you know about. Previously, we had been working from a Friday bi-weekly format that many of you have come very a accustomed to. But, as awesome as those Friday roundups were, keeping to that schedule sometimes proved to be quite difficult. Not to mention resulting in many Roundups being far too large. I decided to clean things up. [...]

Cover Art by DARTS I don't wanna hear one peep about how "summer is almost over!" or "but it's not even sunny where I am" or "this mix is late" or "my eyes are melting from that album art." Summer is a frame of mind and TBE is about to whip yours into shape! Now that you have grown tired of your own summer mix as well as all the ones that other blogs put out months ago, it's time to get the summer mix to not only end all summer mixes, but [...]

Kate Bush is the go-to comparison point these days when describing female-led pop music with an attitude or aesthetic that is notably left of centre. Comparing quirky young pop starlets to the original quirky pop starlet herself often just connotes lazy journalism, like comparing anyone with a taste for reverb laced guitars to U2, or...

The NBA draft went down last night and something unexpected happened. It appears one of two things is happening. Either the talent here in the US is shrinking or the international leagues are getting better. I could hardly pronounce four out of the first ten picks. I'm ecstatic that the Nuggets made a move in the right direction. They dumped the indecisive Felton and picked up old Coach Karl favorite Andre Miller. A more passive point-guard to Ty Lawson's move quick, shoot quick style of play. However, the Nuggets not only got their first pick (Morehead [...]
