It's that time of year again. Time to put the kids to bed and pull out the trees because today it's all about caring less than you ever will on any other day. A joyous time when everyone comes together to share a common interest and using it to enhance everything around them. A time when Mary Jane pops some cherries and shines down upon the world with a pocket full of gold. This embodiment of freeing the human soul becomes ever more sacred with the sound of music at your ear while you puff that happy stick. You can't [...]

Given the title, and the androgynous mystique of Perfume Genius , listeners might expect "Put Your Back N 2 It" to be along the lines of a glamourous, self-indulgent electro-pop record. While the songwriting on "Put Your Back N 2 It" is beautiful, the majority of the record is spent in quiet self reflection. Mike Hadreas, the man behind Perfume Genius , improves on the foundation of his older material while trying some new techniques. The album opener, “Awol Marine,” properly sets the tone for the [...]

In typical Jamie Stewart method, Xiu Xiu's latest track is beautiful in familiarly spooky way. A cover of a How to Dress Well song, Jamie sings simply yet painfully against an electronic, atmospheric drone. In conjunction with the release comes a peculiar music video. A solid addition to the already substantial catalog - that is, if you "get" Xiu Xiu's MO.
We can't say we ever expected Xiu Xiu’s Jamie Stewart to be as influential on music as he ended up being? Tom Krell, bka How to Dress Well clearly sites Xiu Xiu as a stylistic ... read more

Brooklyn's ethereal R&B artist Tom Krell (aka How To Dress Well ) has recorded a cover of Xiu Xiu's "Clowne Towne" (from their 2004 LP Fabulous Muscles ).

How To Dress Well es uno de esos proyectos que desde la primera vez que lo escuche me quede completamente crusheado; esa mezcla de atmosferas oscuras con el falceto de Tom Krell al mas puro estilo del R&B fue una combinacion a la que creo que nadie podria resistirse. Desde la aparicion de su album debut "Love Remains" hace ya como dos años, no habiamos tenido ninguna novedad de How To Dress Well en cuanto a nuevo material pero lo que si, es que en este lapso ademas de toparnos el año pasado con la noticia de [...]
