We all love lists, and we all love sarcasm. Though, I think its important to reflect upon the last year of music, I'm going to do so through the use of a list. It was a fantastic year full of awesome albums, and I'm going to count down a bunch of my favorites, and give you something to listen to while reading. 45. Beirut - Riptide Beirut - Santa Fe A much more accessible, hookladen, and easy to enjoy album was released by Beirut this year. This album will [...]
Kurt von Stetten - Codify Finishing his umpteenth album, multi-instrumentalist, bmx dude, and all around fantastic guy... Kurt von Stetten released Cyclops , the follow up to one of my favorite albums from last year Pyramid . It's interesting to see the change album to album, and there is certainly one here. The do it yourself album does not come easy to many. To say that Kurt is one of my favorite Boston dudes would be downplaying it, and to say that I'm motivated to write lots of great things about him well he's [...]

Boston has a hidden gem that's slowly but surely becoming less and less secret. Kurt von Stetten is about to release his 80th studio record titled Cyclops on Dec. 13th (slight exaggeration but the dude's made a ton of music). I say this every time I try to muster up something to write about a band or artist, but Kurt definitely can not be genre defined. If you come up with one, well then shit, he's sitting alone in it. But with the amount of aural pleasure that's coming from that genre, I'm sure it's [...]

Come Correck The do it yourself album does not come easy to many. Especially if you are a one man show. Multi-instrumentalist, Kurt von Stetten is such an artist. Playing every instrument on every song, he embodies a complete musician. His latest effort, Pyramid, is one of those albums that has a little bit of everything. Its got a down-tempo ballad in the aptly named 'Love Song,' its got a fun, quirky indie rock son in '1st Base.' These songs are just plain fun to explore and its completely surprising that from what I'm [...]
![[Listen/Download] Kurt von Stetten- "Love Song" and "Come Correck"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3045123_lg.jpg)
by teepoo Kurt von Stetten is a dude who plays all the instruments you hear in his songs. His 5 full length albums, including the newest called Pyramid was recorded in his bedroom studio! Every sound you hear, he has produced himself and experimented with in the studio to come up with each full length track. You can hear anything from cello, guitar, bass, xylophone, drums, washboard, keys/synth, and a variety of children's toys, noise makers, and hand percussion. His music is a medium-fi indie-rock illustrated [...]
One thing that really always stands out to me and will for sure get noticed, is an artist who is making it on their own. That DIY attitude proves to me that you love music and it is something you want to pursue. This is what indie-rocker Kurt Von Stetten does so well. Stetten plays every instrument on each of his albums that includes: cello, bass, guitar, drums, xylophone, keys/synth, and various other noisemakers. Over the span of his musical [...]
There's been a musical force hiding in Boston that has been making some of the most unique and creative music over the past decade. Problem is, he's a DIY studio rat who never really believed himself to be a performing artist. The producer/engineer in me can definitely relate with this. Assuming it was due to the support from many fans of his 5 self produced/recorded/performed/wr itten/engineered albums out of his spare bedroom, he was pulled out to the stage. Leading the short-lived Drama Queens , Kurt found a new home on the stage (but is still most likely [...]
