A little bit of deja vu is in order here as we belatedly note the U.S. release of Hither, Thither from Ireland's excellent folk/rockers O Emperor . We first wrote about the album more than two years ago as a RADAR feature but (egg on face) never realized that the band finally released it digitally just last month for delayed American consumption. We got the news when we happened to come across the eyepopping little animated video for the song "Po" made by the creative artsy types at Plastic Zoo [...]
To say Minneapolis' Wag movement is starting to reach any sort of niche cultural significance would be selling it short. Franz Diego is hosting multiple parties per month at Minneapolis venues. The term is reliably blowing up on my Twitter timeline. And now, WagOutParty.com is releasing a free mixtape featuring music from all sorts of artists associated with the Wag scene: Illuminous 3, Greg Grease, The Usual SuspectS, P.O.S., Mike Mictlan, Spyder Baybie Raw Dog, Lizzo, Yakub, Audio Perm, Mike Frey and more. Hit the jump to see the entire tracklist and download the free mixtape. [...]
Andrew Dawson is a name that might not ring a bell at the moment, but that's about to change. The classically trained pianist from Minnesota quietly won three Grammys through his work as a mix engineer on Kanye West's albums The College Dropout , Graduation and, most recently, My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy . Now he's made the transition to full-fledged producer, and set up his SoundEQ studio in Hollywood. "It's got a really cool vibe," says Dawson. "I have a little writing room upstairs that actually used [...]
To the best of my knowledge, P.O.S. has been performing the unreleased song "Get Down" for about a year now. The first time I saw it was in April of 2011 at the University of Minnesota's Spring Jam. P.O.S. performed practically the whole concert standing on a chair in the crowd, and everyone went nuts to "Get Down." Lately, the song seems to be one of the nightly hits on the No Kings tour. The above video is P.O.S. and Mictlan performing "Get Down" to an absolutely packed student union at the University of Wisconisin - [...]

While recent anums have yielded strong releases from Dessa and Lazerbeak , as well as pert near-classics from P.O.S. , something very special happens when the members of Minneapolis hip-hop collective Doomtree go Voltron. No Kings , their latest full-length, is a stone-cold stunner and proof positive that the evolution of hip-hop, though seemingly stunted at times, is far from over. And incidentally; if it's wrong to want Bolt Cutter for my ringtone, I don't want to be right. Though hardened [...]
Minneapolis rap collective Doomtree has always flown under my radar for no apparent reason. I love releases from individuals within the group (P.O.S.'s Never Better and Dessa's A Badly Broken Code come to mind) but I've never given the group releases as much time as those projects. This stance, however, is changing after seeing the video for No Kings album cut "Bangarang". The karaoke party turned posse cut video is motivating me to listen to all Doomtree everything for the next couple of days. Doomtree heads and newbies alike be [...]
You know a track's a banger when it brings my happy ass back to SKoA shouting and shit! I can't believe I let this creep by me for a whole month before I came across. Anyways, peep out the new video for Boys Noize artist Housemeister's collaboration with the Minneapolis Doomtree rapper P.O.S. titled "Weird Friends". Oh and P.S. a little birdy told me this one is gonna be on P.O.S. upcoming 4th solo record dropping later this year. Just a heads up. GRAB THIS SHIT ON BEATPORT NOW!
2012 is poised to be one of the greatest years in music in awhile. Why? Well, I'll give you a hint: it isn't because Justin Bieber is set to have an album coming out. In fact, I don't even know whether that's true or not. It's exciting because Phoenix, Spoon, Delta Spirit, Mumford & Sons, P.O.S., Passion Pit, Animal Collective, The Shins, Brother Ali, Dr. Dre, Miike Snow, Lana Del Rey, Andrew Bird, Sleigh Bells , and the xx are poised to release albums. That's not even including all of the new or smaller bands that will [...]
This is one of my favorite episodes of the year. I look forward to it and I think that all my anticipation has paid off. I had so much fun putting it together and I think you'll have a lot of fun listening to it! 2011 Artists of the Year ***Featuring*** Dessa Doomtree King Post Kitsch Me First and the Gimme Gimmes New Found Glory NOFX P.O.S. Rise Against Smashing Pumpkins Wild Flag

MP3: Poingly - "Boyfriends Come and Go (But Poingly Is Forever) (Live on WHFR, 12-07-11)" MP3: Poingly - "I'd Like To See You Naked (Live on WHFR, 12-07-11)" It was probably sort of arrogant to end the year with my own performance, but when you host an internet radio show of your own, you can do the same! I will say that I have a wonderful time this year, and look forward to more in-studio performances in 2012!
If you're familiar with Daytrotter.com , it is probably because of the extensive coverage of the independent rock, folk and Americana scene. Daytrotter has established itself as one of the premiere tastemakers in this space, contributing to breaking bands like Dawes, Bon Iver, Mountain Goats and Deer Tick by featuring early sessions of the groups. What you might not be familiar with is the impressive coverage of Hip Hop and Rap by Daytrotter. These sessions get lost in among the more visible or "buzzworthy" sessions by the Fleet Foxes, Andrew Bird's and Timber Timbre's of the scene. [...]
