Plucking out and bastardising a band moniker from Radiohead tracklisting is a risky business. Come good and you may well slip into a gushing stream of undying adoration; turn sour and the sullying of song title may inspire some unrestrained ire. So active and indeed enormous is their fanbase that blemishing of the band's rep ought spread like wildfire; like news of a new post-dubstep Thom Yorke rework alighting the entirety of the internet. Fortunately for Aleksa Palladino (of Boardwalk Empire , boxset buffs) and husband Devon Church however, who come together in a beautiful harmony to constitute [...]

Frank Yang People will probably never stop referencing 19972s Ladies & Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space as the iconic Spiritualized album, and justifiably so. It was Jason Pierce's grand breakup album with a soap opera-calibre backstory, it was the band's marker in the Britpop era (though stylistically they never really fit), it raised the band's profile immensely - I once heard "Cool Waves" coming over the PA at a Mongolian Grill restaurant - and was a gorgeous melange of psychedelia, gospel, jazz, and rock besides. It's the [...]

I woke up this morning, turned my laptop on, and began to scour the internet for some enjoyable music. I found this track, put my headphones on, and got the chills as soon as the synth dropped. Maybe it's because I wasn't fully awake, but it's undeniably a pick-me-up song with vocals rare enough to stand tall with the melody. Check out the British band The Joy Formidable , and the Swedish duo Qulinez . The Joy Formidable - A Heavy Abacus (Qulinez Remix) Related posts: [...]
The young Size Records duo responsible for " Troll " is back with their most impressive production since joining Steve Angello's squad. Tiesto premiered Qulinez's remix of The Joy Formidable's "A Heavy Abacus" at UMF and used the track to help craft one of the biggest sets of the weekend . As rips of the track hit the web, it became clear that Qulinez has a giant summer anthems on their hands — a monster that just might top "Troll." Their expert use of those signature synths creates a big room sound that can not be contained in a [...]

Officially released on Atlantic Records, this heavy tune was introduced to us on Tiesto's Club Life podcast. Qulinez, a swedish duo comprised of Alexander Lager and Johannes Gustafsson are fairly new to the scene as the guys began producing tracks back in 2011 and after sending a demo to Swedish House Mafia member Steve Angello over at Size Records, the guys gained some notoriety with 'Troll'. Like 'Troll', the 'Heavy Abacus' remix features some signature swedish rhythm and Qulinez is on it's way to becoming one of the more formidable and popular duo's in all of EDM and although 2013 is [...]

By Michel Dussack Way back in January 2011 (or March for those who didn't impatiently order an international copy and pay a ridiculous amount for shipping to the U.S.), Welsh indie rock trio The Joy Formidable released one of the best album of the year with 'The Big Roar'. They also had one of the best years any break out band could hope for, culminating in Dave Grohl calling 'Whirring' the best song of the year and personally inviting the ...

Facebook Or perhaps that should read, "Vikings coming, Vikings coming", seeing as how the last few days have seen a flurry of excellent concert announcements from Scandinavian bands. Not the biggest but certainly of interest is the return of barely out of their teens if even that Danish post-punks Iceage . Their debut New Brigade was as intense as it was brief - not even 25 minutes to get through a dozen tracks - but with enough melodic sensibility to appeal to those who need a little melodicism [...]
I walked out to my car this morning, basking in the knowledge that it's Friday, and suddenly found myself basking in a 68 degree bright sunny morning.
