The first time I listened to Montana I was travelling on a train in the Rhine-Gorge alongside a river in Germany with the sun setting.

You can also listen to all the selections with Whyd's fancy new widget below. JUNIOR KIMBROUGH (DAFT [...]

A marca conseguiu uma trilha sonora assinada por Thomas Bangalter e Guy-Manoel de Homem-Cristo porque os dois são amigos de longa data do estilista Hedi Slimane , o atual diretor criativo [...]

J Spaceman brought the Spiritualized majik show to LA last month in support of his latest joint, Sweet Heart Sweet Light. As expected, the room was sonically awash in trademark gospel/space haze, with a setlist dipping deep into Pierce's back catalog. The new material sounded good, but more than anything the gig re-ignited my interest [...]
