Daktal is the collaboration of two brothers: Jacob and Jerome Farah. Together, with baked-in inspiration from a musical upbringing, they've created a unique blend of Electronica, Funk and Hip Hop that would make any parent proud. They've already proven one of the most important remixing musts...song selection. I was really hoping they'd pull this off, and they certainly surpassed my expectations. Not only that, there's more. But let's not get ahead of ourselves. When it's right, it's best to take things nice and slow. After being featured on Triple J's Unearthed [...]
In case you needed a reminder - your taxes are due today. And for the first time since I've started doing my own taxes, I'm getting money back from the government. So I just wanted to say, thanks places I worked for, for giving TOO MUCH money to the government so that it would seem like I get a great present at tax time, essentially leaving me a little delusional about what taxes actually mean.

With an all-star supporting cast, the album (produced by Booker T ., Questlove and Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith/Beck) & recorded [...]

Agency Group A decade ago, before there were really such things blogs but the MP3 existed, there was Epitonic . Easily the best site online for researching, discovering and hearing new and independent acts, it was a treasure trove of great things to hear right up until it was shut down in 2004. By that point there were many other avenues for sampling music via downloadable files - you're on one right now - but the breadth and organization of Epitonic was missed. So it's more than great to see that they've returned [...]

Editor's Note: The 2010 music scene was actually one of my favorites in a long time. While some saw a slow year with nothing eventful happening, I saw a hip-hop artist reveal himself as a human (K. West), an Icelandic superstar create something magical on his own (Jonsi), and a band that reached the highest of expectations (Arcade Fire), plus a plethora of Bay Area bands that expanded the scene's already blooming hype machine (Weekend, Judgement Day, Grand Lake, Morning Benders, Sean Hayes, Sonny & The Sunsets, Il Gato, Sleepy Sun, The Limousines, etc).
