"Faster Rhyme For Self" (originally recorded in '09) , Redefinetion Records could have said it better: I'll stay out of your way and let the track speak for itself. None of that generic label hype from us where the label's PR rep writes a couple poetic paragraphs about how amazing the song is supposed to be. Press play. - Redef Produced, Written, Performed, Mixed & Arranged by Damu The Fudgemunk | Scratches by DJ Damu The [...]
DRGN King are planning the release of a full-length album scheduled to come out next month entitled Paragraph Nights . Below is a chilled out new music video for its title track starring leading man Dominic Angellela, Ritz Reynolds, Norwegian Arms ' Brendan Mulvihill, and Phrequency 's Leah Kauffman. It was directed by Dan King.
With the release of its full length debut looming on the horizon, Philly four-piece DRGN King just dropped a video for its title track, Paragraph Nights . Directed by Dan King, the clip is presented in an eerie sepia / cyanotype wash as the band and some friends (including Brendan Mulvihill of Norwegian Arms , and Phrequency editor Leah Kauffman, whose apartment this was shot in) gather around a dusty piano and share red wine in goblets. Watch it below, and check out DRGN King's Key Studio Session here .
The long set-up to last night's big joke started months ago when Wham City's man in Kansas City — Joe Hammers — called the Baltimore avant-slacker comedy troupe into town to perform its big variety show at the Paragraph Gallery. Actually, the funniest thing about the Wham City Comedy Tour was that the end — the punch line — was set up from the very beginning: As Dan Deacon's Wham City tour bus lurched on tour toward Kansas City at 50 mph, running on hot vegetable oil, Hammers was writing a sketch to be performed at the climax of the [...]
Dan Deacon is coming to Kansas City this fall, though not to perform the electronic party music he's best known for. Instead, he'll be hitting up the Paragraph Gallery on November 9 with the Wham City comedy collective.… [ Read more ] [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]

Strawberry Hands & Paragraph // MusicVagabond's 1 Year Birthday Bash Last week we announced that we will be throwing a One Year Birthday Bash , featuring five amazing bands. We have put in tons of work this year and we wanted a way to celebrate, thank our supporters and rock out, while giving back to the community. With help from our friends at The Pantry Party we will be able to accomplish all of the above with a special emphasis on the "giving back to the community" [...]
It's hard to believe it, but MusicVagabond has been up and running for one whole year. To celebrate, we're teaming up with The Pantry Party to throw a 1 Year Birthday Bash and simultaneously raise some money to help fight hunger. Over the next couple of weeks, leading up to the big event, we will be posting music from the sick roster of bands we've lined up.

Filed under: Video , Exclusive "We all keep a part of ourselves secreted away from the rest of our world, whether it's something big or small. 'Powernap' is about the double life we sometimes lead," Joe Imburgio of Paragraph tells Spinner of their new video. The Staten Island band's fuzzy, neo-disco club banger was written about an undercover priest, but the clip is all neon lights and dancing. "It's strange how the things we keep hidden are really such an [...]
Back in the summer of 2005, my brother, some friends, and I started performing a few cover tunes each Monday night at an open mic at Martini Red, a dive bar in Stapleton, Staten Island. A quartet of college students called Paragraph also performed each week, and they were by far the most exciting original act I had seen on the island. Their early stuff was mostly quirky dance-punk - angular, Gang-of-Four-type guitar stabs, driving bass lines and disco beats - fun, catchy, and always danceable. The quartet became a trio, and over the years they [...]
Hey guys if you're in the area, feeling motivated to dance, and just hang out amongst some pretty cool people you should stop by Webster Hall @ 7pm tonight. Paragraph hailing from Staten Island will be opening at Emily Warren and The Betters EP release party. The guys offer a smooth sounding dare i say suave indie beat that surely will make for a most entertaining live experience. Our mutual bff Wendy Strauss has been encouraging me to see her friends play for what feels like a year now. However, I am sick, being lame, and sending everyone [...]
Techno innovators Slam have had a stunningly consistent year and a packed schedule in 2010 and they keep on moving with another new release from their Paragraph imprint. Classic tracks We Doin This Again and Variance are the subject of two quality releases by Julien Chaptal and Gel Abril respectively. Fresh from solid releases on [...]
It feels like it has been ages since we were able to share any music from our home borough of Staten Island. The scene here has slowed down a bit in the past few months as we wait for new records to land from folks like Kilgore Trout Is Dead and The Rabbits. We did tell you about Les Vinyl about a month ago, but in the past we were bringing more Staten Island goodies than that to the table! A few weeks ago we got our hands on a three song bonus EP Paragraph [...]
Glasgow techno and house legends Slam have a top quality back catalogue under their belt and continue to turn out quality tune after quality tune. This is the latest release on their own Paragraph label and although it sits on the b-side as it were - tis defo my favourite of the pack. Lovely swirly synths and a head nodding bassline hover over a lovely shuffly tech house beat and the catchy hook guarantees earworm status. Available exclusively at Beatport . Slam - Collecting Data
