It's been a year since Eats Everything made an Essential Mix appearance, and this time around, the new #13 on Resident Advisor 's Top 100 DJs of 2012 poll had a special treat for us. This two hour segment featured an unreasonably large number of incredible edits, bootlegs, and reworks by the big man himself. No surprises in his inclusion of pals like Justin Martin , T.E.E.D ., and Catz n Dogz but we were tickled by inclusions of Green Velvet , Jacques Da Booty, Kölsch, Paul Simon, and the [...]
Recently, a friend of mine introduced me to a website called Miss Moss. Its subhead calls the blog a "compendium of radness," and indeed it is. While I'm not very into the sections on art and fashion, the blog's founder, Diana, is a bit of a playlist-ologist. I've spent hours browsing through her music musings from the past year. These posts are almost entirely playlists, but once in a while there's a band featured - and I'm so thankful I came across Beatenberg. Miss Moss describes Beatenberg as a "paul simonesque/vampire weekendy/john mayerish (minus the douchebaginess) [...]

For some reason, the end-of-year listomania is starting early this year — the Guardian has begun its best-of-2012 list already, and we're sure others will soon be following suit. In the spirit of getting onto getting onto such things ahead of time, then, we thought we'd commence our own end-of-year listing this week with a look at the best of reissues of 2012. In any case, it seems an appropriate time to be looking at reissues, because this month sees the (re-)release of Massive Attack's classic 1991 debut Blue Lines , an album which we're [...]
Normally I would advocate adopting a position of wariness when someone says 'hey listen to my friends music its really good', lord knows we have all been lead down digital avenues of dreary indie in the name of loyalty to friends (a loyalty I myself often exploited in the name of indie stardom) but in this case I make an exception. I assure you James', alias Fugitive Orchestra, music is good and at the very least interesting. The lyrics are mature, able to convey drama without wailing hysterically or spelling out emotion with a black marker. There are some lovely [...]
Always loved the 3-D look of this album cover when I was a kid. (Sorry, no funny caption today. What's that? You never noticed they were funny? Great.) By most accounts, Paul Simon is not that nice of a guy. I was disappointed to discover this many years ago, as I'd always admired his music, but I have it from a reliable source (among others) - my late grandfather, who played violin as a session musician on a couple of Simon's albums. Simon treated his session musicians with little respect - as opposed [...]
Filed under: The Hit List NBC via Getty Images Nicole Westbrook's song "It's Thanksgiving" has drawn plenty of comparisons to Rebecca Black's universally panned "Friday." But the 12-year-old viral video singer has learned one valuable lesson about the music industry: If you record a song about Thanksgiving, it stands a good chance of getting heard -- at least one time of the year -- no matter what the quality. Because while there are plenty of themed [...]

Everybody has their own definition of a "chill" record. But if ever there was a time when one was desperately needed, it would likely be when you are stranded on a faraway island - with nothing but a volleyball to keep you company. Or worse, other pain-in-the-ass survivors of the crash. But what chills you out? Perhaps to no one's [...]
