Hey ya'll. I'm trying something new here, making a mix and all. As long as Marc doesn't fire/murder me, this should be a monthly feature, so be stoked. What I've done here is thrown together 14 of my favorite tracks from the beautiful month of April. Any and all genres were up for grabs but O'm no professional DJ, and I'm not even using proper software for the job, so bear with me as I learn and improve for future mixes. But yo Junkies, because I'm so nice - I'll provide you with myriad forms of listening. [...]

Last night (April 29) marked the 17th (!) annual Webby Awards, and it was quite a night for some of pop music's big names. Frank Ocean was named Person of the Year for last year's Tumblr post about his sexuality and his interaction with fans via Tumblr and Twitter. As for Artist of the Year , that went to Grimes , and there's arguably nobody better at making music feel like the Internet, all chaotically swirling and hypnotizing. The electro-pop enigma is one of Web music's biggest success stories, and she recently broke [...]

![[MP3] Wolf Saga covers Frank Ocean](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4916952_lg.jpg)
Canadian synth head Wolf Saga is definitely becoming a big blip on our radar. He caught out eye (or is that ear?) last month with his track Reign At Night , a rapturous synthesizer opus. In-between producing wondrous original tunes Wolf Saga has indulged his love of recording cover versions with this new tune, as he performs Frank Ocean ’s Thinkin’ ‘Bout You . Wolf Saga, once again, treats us to waves of rich synths tempered with an R&B flavour. There’s something about the sound pallet Wolf Saga uses, the tones of his [...]

The team over at MTV caught up with Frank Ocean during a recent TIME magazine event and chopped it up about his new album. Well, sort of. They inquired about where the project stands and it led to Frankie explaining that when he was recording Channel Orange , he listened to a lot of Stevie Wonder and similar artists. But now, he's been up on the Beatles and Beach Boys, which he said might trickle down into his next album. Considering you could definitely hear Stevie all over CO , it'll be interesting to [...]

While humans have gazed up at the moon and made love under the stars since the beginning of civilization, only a select few have actually had the privilege to get it on among those heavenly bodies. In fact, NASA has long contended that none have done so.
