The Xx has been making some major news with their new music. I just found that they will be playing with Friendly Fires at The Henry Fonda "The Music Box" in Los Angeles/Hollywood! Sounds like a HUGE show to me! I'm definitely there, and I know our friends and TILT fam will be there too! I've recently found this killer edit of The Xx song "Shelter" by THEM JEANS ! As a L.A. resident Them Jeans has really made his mark on the scene here. I've seen him live and heard a few other of his [...]

Chicago's finest femcee star in the making, Kid Sister , is finally releasing her long-anticipated debut album, Ultraviolet , on October 6th via Downtown Records. Originally titled Dream Date , and set for release in September of last year, she pulled a daring move and asked the label to hold off on releasing it.

Legendary Dim Mak Tuesdays at Cinespace were back in full effect last week when Steve Aoki returned from his trip overseas touring with Bloody Beetroots. I followed their journey on The Cobrasnake's party photo site and shit looked bananas. I can't wait til me and my crew are traveling the world and wrecking shit. Believe it! I got to catch up with Cinespace resident DJ Them Jeans before his set. Found out he's playing the new Audiotistic in May. You remember those half Hip-Hop/half Rave festivals they used to have [...]

(Just as every other Valerie bands, which is why we
Far too many DJ's fill their sets/mixes with monotonous humdrum. The greatest DJ's tend to not only have a brilliant ear for what does and doesn't blend together, but also a knack for dropping fresh and classic tunes alike. Erol Alkan, for instance, is now renowned for dropping a beefed up version of The Eurythmics' 'Sweet Dreams' into his magnificent sets, alongside all those contemporary bangers.

She stays busy recording and touring with A-Trak , Kanye West , and bigger bro J2K of Flosstradamus . But she's not the only one keeping busy—for each bangin' track there's a handful of remixers eager to rip it apart and build it back up again. Enter TonyX of 1/2ALIVE crew. He's been busy —besides throwing Vancouver's freshest dance party called [...]
What?! This shit is bonkers, guys. I mean, for real? They add a second night and that sold out like whoa, too? Well, if you're like me and you're bummed about missing this, you can at least wash away your sorrows at the American Museum of Natural History (of course the most hipster-ish of all the NYC museums) with Kid Sis and her hometown bros in Cool Kids and Kanye's DJ whiz A-Trak on January 25 for their monthly "One Step Beyond" party . It's 20 bucks but [...]
