Lagos represents the collaborative work of like-minded electronic producers Radius and Leo123, who also happen to reside in Chicago. It's a fitting location for the musicians, because you can hear the influence of Chicago house throughout their tunes. The latest example of this comes on the excellent "(your thoughts)", a bass and drum-heavy tune you can get lost in if you're not careful. Ah screw it, throw your headphones on and submerge yourself. Hit the skip to stream the track. It's off Lagos' upcoming joint project due out Nov. 29 on Old Tacoma . [...]

I need an Acoustic Guitar with a smaller fret board.... any suggestions? Okay, so I have really small hands and my fingers are short. This makes it very hard for me to reach certain frets when I'm playing a chord. Can you name a guitar with a smaller fret board distance and radius? Are you talking about [...]
Dark Sky 's latest EP, Radius , was released July 29 on Modeselektor 's label, 50Weapons. I am, in general, a big fan of EPs. They're the short story of the music world—when you don't feel like undertaking the nuance involved in an entire novel to get to know an author, you might turn to a short story, where you can experience some degree of variation without all the commitment. Radius is a solid set of four bass-y tracks that it'll take you under half an hour to sip up. While I was vaguely familiar with [...]
Here's how the Pop Massacre concept works. The folks at Friends of Friends Music gather classic pop tracks from the past and present and then send them to some of their favorite electronic/left-field hip-hop producers. The resulting effort is a sprawling mindfuck of a remix project that really only can be described as a Pop Massacre . Cats like Jonwayne , Mexicans with Guns , Shlohmo , Radius , and Salva have gotten their mitts on joints by the likes of Ginuwine, Christina Aguilera, Sisqo, and the [...]
I've been hearing about Tall Black Guy for a few years now, particularly when I was diving into Chicago's underground hip-hop scene. But for some reason, I never kept up with him. So when I was informed that the Chi-city producer had just released a new album, Hollyweird 2.0 , I decided it was time to hop on board. And from what I'm hearing, I could not have picked a better time. The project, which features Radius and the Primeridian , is Tall Black Guy's ode to the West Coast, which means thick bass, killer synthesizers, [...]
Признаться чесно, я ждал от этого релиза техно. На деле получилось фанки. Нет, ну хорошее, спору нет, правда только 'Speeding Blue'. Да и он отдает 'док данековскими' любимыми приемчиками. 'Neon' вообще электро хаусовый. Впрочем, из порадовавшего - перкуссия, которая у Dark Sky всегда была на уровне. Так что я наверное просто сошлюсь на трудность оценки лишь по крошечным обрезкам, вряд ли Модеселектор в лице 50Weapons подписался под чем-то плохим. p.s. пред-заказ можно оформить на modeselektor.com

Here are a couple of videos featuring tracks from Radius by Jackson Arcade :
When we were writing out Top 10 Open Mics in Chicago feature last month, one that were planning to include was the 20hzx20kHz open mic held by West side Chicago independently run art space Quennect4 . Unfortunately, shortly before the post was to go up, we learned that Quennect4 had been forced to shutter its doors in January by the city after four years of being a performance venue for local artists. Well, the fine folks who run Quennect4 are not going away so easily. They've started a massive fund raising effort to [...]

Set times have been announced for this weekend's Sunset Strip Music Festival , a three-day affair highlighted by Saturday's party on Sunset Boulevard. The street will be closed on Saturday between Doheny Drive and San Vicente Boulevard to accommodate two outdoors stages — with music going on inside the Roxy and the Key Club, there will be plenty to justify the $39.50 ticket price. The festival also announced that L.A. City and County firefighters get in free. [Pictured: L.A.'s Shiny Toy Guns , performing on the East Stage at 5 p.m.] After the jump, the set [...]

Every Sunday in January, Chicago radio station Q101 dropped a NEW Hood Vs Chicago track during their Local 101 program. Big up to Jaime and Chris from the station for approaching us about this project, it was definitely fun to do some more Chi City tracks. 1. The Prairie Cartel - Cracktown RMX (feat. Qualo) 2. Bot Control (Yea Big + Kid Static vs Hey Champ) 3. Who Gets A Tear In Your Eye (Pugs Atomz vs Pretty Good Dance Moves) 4. [...]
Here's what I knew about Radius before the gig - they're from Delhi - there's rap music involved Here's what I knew about Radius after the gig - they're not very good live - the rapper's name is Axe, or Asx, or Akshay Head downstairs for the full review, Indiecision and Shirley's handywork with the Sony. This gig was a comeback of sorts for me; my first in over two months. Which meant that I was hoping there'd [...]
