Got any plans this Wednesday night? Either way, you should come by Pianos in Manhattan for the concert we're hosting featuring Hockey (yes, they're back!), Monogold , Black Light Dinner Party ( who is currently doing a residency at the venue ), and Late Guest At The Party . If you're planning on coming and don't want to pay the $10 ticket price, you're in luck. We're giving away two tickets plus a signed copy of the new Hockey album, shirts from Monogold , and both a shirt and album [...]
![FEAST YOUR EARS ON BLACKLIGHT DINNER PARTY [STREAM]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4886514_lg.jpg)
"Lift Away" by New York City's Black Light Dinner Party is one of those songs that is satisfying no matter what kind of mood you're in. Need something to ease you into the morning? "Lift Away" has the appropriate chillwave vibe. How about something to get you through a long afternoon? "Lift Away" has a solid electro beat that will snap your body out of its funk. It's a crowd pleaser through and through while still contributing something unique and original to the genre. But enough with the sales [...]
Now that the warm weather has finally thawed New York's frozen core and melted away everyone's collective doldrums, it's time for the city's countless music festivals to start popping up, and one of them – perhaps one of the city's most unique – is about to hit this Thursday night. The Brain-Cave Festival , now in its third year and taking place at Europa in Greenpoint from April 11 - 14, bills itself as something of a music and multimedia extravaganza, and will feature a ton of NYC acts like Hooray for Earth , Peelander-Z , [...]

Mark the 24th of April in your calendar folks, because we're putting on a concert at Pianos and would love for you to join us. Having been a fan since even before their debut album was released, I couldn't be more excited to announce that Brooklyn-via-Portland band Hockey will be headlining the evening with direct support from Monogold . Also playing are new favorites of ours, Black Light Dinner Party (who have an April residency at Pianos) and Late Guest At The Party . Listen to all four bands and buy [...]

Factory) return to Cincinnati on Sunday. The psychedelic pop quartet, known to play in sequins and fire off confetti guns, play 20th Century Theatre with Monogold (Brooklyn, NY) and locals We Are Snapdragon .

![Millionyoung – Replicants [Album + CMJ Shows]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3790701_lg.jpg)
Old Flame Records are responsible for exciting bands like Unouomedude , Letting Up Despite Great Faults , and my new favorite chillwave artist Millionyoung . Earlier this year, Millionyoung released Replicants , and the entire collection is filtered with computer melodies and sentimental heartaches. My top pick is actually the 11th track entitled "Sentimental." Download: Millionyoung - Sentimental Mike Diaz is the man pictured and the man behind Millionyoung. He comes from Florida but the band is currently [...]
![FANG ISLAND, JAMES BLAKE, TWIN SHADOW [SUGGESTED NYC CONCERTS]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3766281_lg.jpg)
Another week here in New York City means another week of live music that will blow your mind. Though James Blake , Yacht ,and Twin Shadow are in town, it's Brooklyn-by-way-of Rhode Island band Fang Island that snagged our #1 concert of the week spot. Why you ask? These dudes are outrageous performers who know how to have a good time. They're also playing one of my favorite venues, Glasslands Gallery . It's a small place filled with strange taxidermy, mythological creatures and a backdrop of puffy clouds. Do yourself a [...]

Tweet I have one of those colds that's developed into a throaty, annoying cough. I've been trying to beat it into submission with various potions but tonight nothing is working. So now I'm onto my dad's recommended herbal remedy; Bell's Scotch Whisky. Obviously the perfect way to enjoy whisky is whilst browsing music blogs and this evening I stumbled right onto I Guess I'm Floating (one of our A to Z ). IGIF kindly introduced me to the sublime Monogold [...]
![[Video] Monogold: “Spirit or Something” (Live)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3753414_lg.jpg)
One of our favorite up-and-coming bands, not to mention 2009 hypeworthy alums , Monogold have a new video to accompany scintillating single "Spirit or Something". The video was shot live at The Loft Show in July and syncs up well with the song. I'm hoping to hear more from Monogold soon or at least snag a copy of their latest LP The Softest Glow on silky smooth vinyl - someone needs to press it!

If Animal Collective had to spend one month inside a cave with the instruments from Bob Marley & The Wailers , ambient sounds coming from that cave would be Monogold . This is another band that I fell in love with after L Magazine's Northside Festival. Since I can't stop raving about these guys, it is time for Monogold to be "Earmilked." Monogold is a three-piece experimental band from Brooklyn, New York. Keith, Jared and Mike assemble together to blow a psychedelic chill that lingers through your body and is released into exotic dance [...]
