Are we the only music site to have reviewed albums from both Muneshine and Hannah Georgas ? After doing exactly zero research on this question, I'm going to go ahead and say yes, yes we are. So a Muneshine remix of a Hannah Georgas song is the kind of thing that fits squarely in our wheelhouse, and truthfully I was prepared to enjoy it even before I heard it. Luckily it's better than I could have expected, with Muneshine outfitting this track from Georgas' last album with an amped up [...]
Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin It might seem like Björk doesn't tour much anymore - after all, it's been nearly five years since she was last here headlining V Fest 2007 in support of Volta , but that was actually her last album before 20112s Biophilia . So besides the fact that she's been working at a slower pace than when the '90s triumvirate of Debut / Post / Homogenic made her one of the most unconventional pop stars of Alternative [...]

Seems crazy to think we've already hit another milestone with 30...30 Chill Dojos (insert Sesame Street Count laugh here). There's always the desire to deliver a playlist fitting for the occasion, and luckily this week has seen enough amazing music to compile a mammoth edition of 30 tracks! There's a heap of amazing talent on show here, so let's waste no time and dive straight in. Garage vibes are the flavor of the week, and when it comes to this style there's no doubt the UK does it best. No idea how we slept on this remix of [...]
Here in Detroit, it's still very cold - sun and warmth feel like they may never come. On the flip side, I just came back from SXSW and Austin, Texas was very warm; the sun was out and life felt glorious. Since my return home, I've sunk into seasonal purgatory. It's a weird state of mind - feeling downright beaten yet exceedingly energized. Around this time of year life tends to weigh a ton. It's just part of the cycle. This Sunday Night Chill really reflects the daily in and outs of this fluctuating mood. There's a hopeful-sounding silver lining to [...]
While my fellow bloggers and all-around music loving nerds are spending spring break in good 'ol Austin, Texas for South By Southwest this week, some of us left behind in the cold, slushy weather are likely seething with jealousy. To warm us over and giving us something to look forward to, the good people at Osheaga released (after a [...]

Over the next 10 days, more than a quarter-million of motivated artists and industry personnel will descend upon Austin. New York musicians will speed 26 hours and 1,500 miles to Texas’s capital, while Los Angeles filmmakers will make the three-hour flight into Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. Some start-ups will walk to the festival, while other musicians will travel halfway around the globe. They all come for one purpose: the 27th annual South By Southwest . The 10-day festival, which includes music, film, and interactive segments, unites credential-wearing hordes in a party-hopping, buzz-building extravaganza. Some registrants will partake in [...]
This weeks Trap Dojo is divided into four sections. The first track, from thefaded. kicks off with a massive build up that will have you saying "Wait For It" to drop that almost never seems to come. The mood and pace continues to build over the next few tracks, including the UZ remix of "Cowboy" by Zeds Dead , a remix of Baauer' s "DumDum" and climaxing with Alex Young 's insane remix of " Ah Yeah". The next four songs are all spaced out trap bangers. Starting it off with the deep and jazzy "Ride Up", heRobust infuses some [...]
