I think you can see the lead singer's head if you squint really hard. First of all, I apologize for probably the single-handed worst picture ever taken for a concert review. It's awful, and I apologize profusely. I was sick Wednesday night, and while I shouldn't have gone out in public infecting people with my germs, I really wanted to check out MS MR , the new "it" band of the moment, or whatever you want to call that. Perhaps it was the sickness, and my general mood of discomfort going into the sweaty [...]
"Not enough has emerged to be able to pinpoint whether MS MR are the real deal or predictable bullshit. One thing’s for sure though, they’re pretty MOR..." MS MR | Secondhand Rapture The elusive MS MR are part of the latest gloom brigade to break out from the waiting room of future talent, and as with most hyped-up fledging acts they have been charged with the over-familiar fate of ‘saving pop’. Their entry into the musicsphere was in the same vein as Lana Del Rey; opting not to release too much information too early on, letting [...]
El Corona Capital reveló los detalles de su cuarta edición y nuevamente nos sorprendió con un cartel que combina clásicos, nuevas propuestas y grandes nombres. El lineup está a la altura de algunos festivales internacionales y seguramente será uno de los mejores momentos de la música en vivo en México. A continuación revisamos detalladamente el cartel del Corona Capital 2013: El gran espectáculo audiovisual: Squarepusher y Deadmau5 serán los obligados para todos los que amen los espectáculos audiovisuales. Dos extremos muy [...]
I've often said that I could never live up to my father. At once, when necessary, commanding with a belly full of fire he knows how to manage people well and is built for work. He's never sick, he handles difficult situations deftly and works like a dog. If he's not working for the boss man on the weekend he's maintaining the house or helping his kids out with theirs (ever beyond the call). I don't mean to be a Warren, the son version, though I've learnt much from him and I think it sustains me, particularly during the [...]
The world inside Secondhand Rapture always seems on the verge of breaking. The title fits; either we're vicariously surging with joy or we're riding to the afterlife on someone else's heels. Given the marriage of apocalyptic lyrics with sugared hooks, it's probably both at once. MS MR perform dark, wild pop that spills over itself, song after song. Secondhand Rapture doesn't lean far from the teasers that studded the New York duo's Tumblr in the months leading up to its release. Producer Max Hershenow eschews synthpop's familiar chimes and squelches for a rich [...]
Two excellent new electronic acts- New York duo MS MR and Scottish trio CHVRCHES- unite for the first time on "Hurricane." On the light, breezy remix, CHVRCHES whip MS MR's debut single into a delightful, danceable frenzy. Courtesy of an infectious, synth-inflected chorus, this is one you won't be getting out of your head anytime soon.
We surveyed IRC readers asking what's their favorite album of the week, and not surprisingly, the vast majority picked Vampire Weekend's first album in three years, the just dropped Modern Vampires of the City. By the time Contra, the band's sophomore album, was released in 2010, a backlash was already building up against the wildly [...] Read more, get songs or stream the entire mix on Indie Rock Cafe
So I'm seriously trying to get my take on the new Daft Punk album out, but I still feel like I need to listen to it a couple more times. My very first impression on the album was it was mediocre, but with each subsequent listen, it quickly changed to godlike. I think it needs to settle a bit before I write anything more about it. Starting off with an amazing track once again remixed by CHVRCHES of MS MR . I love it. It could be a CHVRCHES [...]
The long weekend that usually marks the first days of summer has arrived, and although the weather took an unusually long time to catch up, chances are you're going to see at least a bit of sun before Tuesday. To set you on your way, we've made a collection of our most replayed obsessions that arrived throughout the winter thaw. mp3: Soft Signal spring 2012 mix (85 mb) Disclosure – “You & Me" (feat.

Earlier this week, MS MR released Secondhand Rapture , a lovely debut album full of enigmatic alt-pop, and last night (May 16) they made their network television debut to celebrate the release. The duo of Lizzy Plapinger and Max Hershenow (plus two extra live band-mates) performed "Hurricane" on the Late Show with David Letterman (sans blue and red body paint ). Lizzy's voice has an even smokier cabaret feel live, and combined with the more front-loaded synths, there's a nice fog/neon juxtaposition that isn't as apparent on the studio version. [...]
I feel this post and every one to follow is coming as a necessity. We had a weekly mix that we used to do that we seem to have forgotten about so here I am here to reinstate it. Basically what this will be is a weekly re-cap of all our favorite tracks of the week, of any genre, new releases and the occasional re-discovered gem. This week's mix will be a collection of tracks from the past couple of weeks. Most noteworthy tracks are the three of my favorite songs off Random Access Memories , Baauer [...]
MS MR made their TV debut last night on Late Show with David Letterman. I was so anxious to see which song they'd perform. Bones? Hurricane? Dark Doo Wop?! They ended up performing their hugely successful and loved single "Hurricane." Just wait for that moment at the 3:50 mark...Lizzy's vocals delivers pure bone-chilling goosebumps. It's pure pleasure to see good people making good music and succeeding. Get their album Secondhand Rapture available now on iTunes and Spotify . And don't miss them live with Magic Man [...]

Best thing about me Friday morning is the MS MR performing HURRICANE on the Late Show With David Letterman last night. Amazing. And it's their first ever telly performance.
. Uma música poderosa merece um videoclipe grandioso, não é mesmo? Pois o London Grammar conseguiu tal feito em função da direção de Bison, que captou a melancolia da letra de “Wasting My Young Years” de maneira precisa. Com um som que remete à canção “Mad World” (na versão de Gary Jules ) e às músicas de James Blake , MS MR e Florence And The Machine , “Wasting My Young Years” será lançada oficialmente em junho. Até lá, é possível admirar o clipe, que mostra a [...]

New music from Lizzy Plapinger is always cause for celebration. This time she got together with synth master Max Hershenow alias MR. Together they are the new tumblr pop sensation of the year, MS MR.

There's been a lot of hype around MS MR thanks to a rather incredible remix of the New Yorker's track 'Hurricane' by Glaswegian's Chvrches. Perfect hype, just in time for the duos debut release 'Secondhand Rapture' . If your only experience of MS MR has been the aforementioned remix then i'm sorry you may about to be disappointed, but don't worry it won't be for long. I wasn't totally sure what to expect from a record featuring Lizzy Plapinger on vocals. As one of the co-founders of Neon Gold Records (who also incidentally inspried me to start blogging myself), Lizzy has been [...]
