It's 2013, and human beings are still trying to figure out how to automate music discovery. Trends come and go, new services pop up and disappear, and a music discovery app is created, marketed, and killed off every few days. The thing is, no algorithm, social networking service, or customizable radio station has been able to really nail it. There's still nothing quite as effective as a friend saying, "You like so-and-so? Check this out."

Today's recommendation is so fine that he had us questioning what music itself actually is. Is it just a sequence of sounds? Is it just a process of rhythms? Are melodies just noises tapped out in an arranged series? Are harmonies just wavelengths that sound nice? How can a chain of vibrations become music? More poignantly with today's artist, how can some people suggest what is and isn't music? Without many traditional instruments in sight, except for keyboards plump with samples, here is a new male solo artist making truly enjoyable music almost solely from looping sequences. We'd love him [...]
London duo Still Corners have released their sophomore album today, named Strange Pleasures and it's highly recommend you get it on your playlist rotation. For me this album is a fresh breath of dream pop air drawing some similarities to a Beach House sound, with elements of Youth Lagoon and our featured track striking a Grimes chord. All these similarities put aside as this is their sound and this LP is full of some cracking tracks. I've already had 'Beatcity' on repeat along with, 'Fireflies'. Cut a listen here [...]

If you watched any clips from the Met Gala that went down in New York yesterday, you probably saw plenty of interviews about fashion, but none quite as charmingly unpretentious as Grimes'. Wearing Chanel, Grimes talked about the punk theme, the difference between Coachella fashion and the Met Gala fashion, and the experience at her first [...]

Indie Twitter was a-grumble last night as reports and photos from the Met Gala were unveiled. For those who don't know, the Met Gala is a celebration of a massive annual fashion-themed exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum Of Art's Costume Institute. This year's is punk. Naturally, subculture co-option is a sensitive subject for many, but two of the most important tenets of punk are style-innovation and not giving a fuck. This poses a potential snake-swallowing-its-own-tail scenario when commenting on it. Grimes was one of the guests at the Gala and, as always, when speaking about the exhibition and the night, [...]

![Kaiju feat. Flowdan – Hunter / Snagglepuss EP [Osiris Musik]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4935556_lg.jpg)
Holy fuck. Out today cheers to the unstoppable Orisis Musik comes Kaiju's newest release, a two-track EP featuring Flowdan on the A side and a dark number on the flip. This marks Kaiju's third 123 release on the Kryptic Minds label and brings some murky grime in Hunter, letting Flowdan unleash his shadowy, rhythmic vocal styles within this epic minimal jam. Side B brings a sound that's becoming more and more common within the dubstep scene. Snagglepuss smashes sounds super dark, entering that dungeon style that's getting fucking big. This release is definitely set to be a must have and is [...]
There is a reason for the title of this post. Everything unexpected DID happen at Live At Leeds 2013. Let me break it down for you: I couldn't go to work on Friday. Someone in the office gave me a nasty bastard chest and sinus infection. By the time Saturday rolled in, I was still so ropey I nearly cancelled my attendance for the festival. Regardless, turn up I did, and with my sidekick Sophie and her friend Simon, we negotiated the thick crowd queuing outside Leeds City Museum, got our wristbands and proceeded to plan who to see. I have [...]

While the debut album Geidi Primes was released back in 2010, Claire Boucher aka Canadian avant-garde pop producer Grimes decides to release a video for [...]
The GRIMES has gone public with the never before seen video VENUS IN FLEURS .

La grulla canadiense es una de las más pequeñas de su especie. Últimamente, Grimes ha sido noticia por sus declaraciones sobre el sexismo y por su posible visita a México. Ahora, la canadiense estrenó un video que tenía guardado de su primer álbum Geidi Primes . La razón por la cual esta pieza no había visto la luz es –en palabras de ella– por que en ese entonces no iba de la mano con sus planes de promoción. " Ahora ya no me importan esas cosas así que por eso lo [...]
Over the weekend, Grimes went public with a never-before-seen video for "Venus in Fleurs," a track from her 2010 debut, Geidi Primes. Shot in the Reifel Bird Sanctuary in British Columbia by director friend Video ... read more

Frank Yang Though inconvenient and unfortunate in real terms, there was something appropriate about the fact that half of Rachel Zeffira's first North American tour was canceled on account of visa issues. After all, her musical career only took the course that it did because of an overzealous British immigration officer refused her entry to the country, causing her to miss her an important music college audition. That all worked out for the best, of course, as it set her on the course to become half of Cat's Eyes with Faris Badwan [...]

Três anos depois de ter editado o álbum Geidi Primes pela Arbutus Records, a canadiana Grimes divulgou um novo trabalho audiovisual, para uma das músicas que figuram no mencionado disco - "Venus In Fleurs". No seu Tumblr oficial a cantora avançou que o vídeo já houvera sido realizado há imenso tempo pelo seu amigo Marsh mas que, por problemas com os ciclos de imprensa da altura, o seu lançamento fora impedido. Agora, e sem preocupações relativas aos cumprimentos da imprensa, a cantora partilhou o trabalho cinematográfico final, cujas imagens foram captadas no Reifel Bird Sanctuary, na Colômbia Britânica.
