HoZac Records has unveiled yet another gem lurking in the Chicago music scene in Population, a 5-piece that harken back to the glory days of post-punk/goth and all of its dark and glorious furiousity. The upcoming release of the White Crosses EP marks the band's first on HoZac after their demo and self-titled EP on BLVD Records that is now sold out. Population make no qualms about wearing their influences on their sleeves, but when it's done this well there's no reason to hide anything. The three new songs [...]

"Imagine a Portuguese guy living in Luxembourg. Portugal is the sun and Luxembourg always has the grey sky." is what Victor Ferreira aka. SUN GLITTERS told us in an interview at this year's Reeperbahn Festival. Now the chillwave artist released his new video We are breathing, breathing… which shows again that he is into both

Andrea Mangia aka Populous, da anni appostato in quella nicchia della scena musicale indie italiana che è la musica elettronica. Pur restando nella sua Puglia, sbarca presto in scenari molto mittel-europei col suo sound di elettronica minimale e molto ricercata. La sua musica sembra avere come punti cardinali allo stesso tempo Kanye West e Piero Umiliani, Fennesz e Morricone. A parole sembra un’accozzaglia senza senso, ma fidatevi che non lo è. Dopo tre dischi come Populous, progetti italiani come Girl with the Gun o Echoes Of The Whales, tanti remix (fatti e ricevuti) ed altre collaborazioni, [...]

But if you can't make it there, fear not! There's plenty of other sweet shows going down this weekend including Population (and Radar Eyes and Disappears) at the Empty Bottle , Nones at Crown [...]

R. Kelly has gone through a few phases in his — I'd call it "illustrious," sure — career. For a man as prolific as Kelly, it wouldn't make sense for him to do otherwise. We want our artists — our truly great artists — to challenge us and to challenge themselves, to constantly reinvent themselves and push past their own limitations. So this is why through the years we've gotten straight-up sex-jam R. Kelly, the ridiculous R. Kelly from "Trapped in the Closet" and, more recently, the earnest, ode-to-his-influences R. Kelly. That's important to remember about R. Kelly: [...]

On their debut album, Pop. 1280 brings a dark, abrasive, and almost gothic aesthetic to the style of noise rock. WATCH THE REVIEW
NPR's Adam Cole reports , "it was just over two centuries ago that the global population was 1 billion — in 1804. But better medicine and improved agriculture resulted in higher life expectancy for children, dramatically increasing the world population." Can you imagine what the population will be when people are living to 125 years and nobody really dies unless they want to? BTW: The symbolic seventh billion person was born yesterday .

Die-Rek - Remember (Single) MC/Producer Die-Rek out of Toronto Canada is back with the second single "Remember" off of his recently released project The Die-Version. “Remember” is a track 99.9% of the population can relate too. Whether it was a rich or poor relationship from the past or mistaken identity, forgotten memories always try to make an appearance and this track is a story of just that.

Former Berlin finance minister and hugely successful author of a book about, among other things, how immigrants are dumbing down Germany and a burden on its social market economy, Thilo Sarrazin , came to Kreuzberg with a ZDF camera crew last Friday to "have a dialogue" with the local population. Shockingly , he wasn't greeted with open arms. He visited the Hasir restaurant on Adalbertstrasse, the Turkish market on Maybachufer and, finally, the Turkish Alevi Community Centre on Waldemarstrasse, meeting with loud disapproval at every stop. At the community centre he [...]

Next Thursday will mark the first Global Dance Festival that I've ever attended. The only thing I can think of most is catching Empire of the Sun. The part concert, part Cirque de Soleil act has me drawn like a mosquito to an overweight person in the dead of summer. I'm kind of bummed that the show is only one hour, however the rest of the lineup seems kind of hit or miss. It will be my first Red Rocks show this year and wondering if I should bring my glowsticks? [...]

I tend to gravitate towards artists that sing about geography, whether it's Sufjan Stevens with his states project , The Mountain Goats with his various geographic odes , or The Rural Alberta Advantage's dedication to their Hometowns . This week Bon Iver released the first track, "Calgary" to his excellent new album Bon Iver, Bon Iver , which triggered a subsequent leak a couple hours later. Largely due to his relentless touring schedule, Bon Iver was inspired by places and [...]
"A kid who rats on another kid...is a dead kid!" - Ritchie White (Matt Dillon in Over The Edge, 1979) In terms of genre, when it comes to film, teenage rebellion/ennui is a veritable cottage industry. While it may go in and out of vogue, every decade seems to produce at least a couple of [...]
Salon examines the counter-intuitive thought on the world's over-population . But according to the veteran environmental writer Fred Pearce, they’re all wrong. In his latest book, "The Coming Population Crash: And Our Planet's Surprising Future," Pearce argues that the world’s population is peaking. In the next century, we’re heading not for exponential growth, but a slow, steady decline. This, he claims, has the potential to massively change both our society and our planet: Children will become a rare sight, patriarchal thinking will fall by the wayside, and middle-aged culture will replace our predominant [...]
