Tweet It's been over two years since Beach House graced us with a new record. And while some simply wait anxiously for the successor to "Teen Dream" , I've found myself fully immersed in an EP over the past few weeks that's helping me through. The EP in question is a self-titled debut work by Granit , a female duo from my dad's native Barcelona. Cristina Checa and [...]

The two acts performing exclusively on UK festival circuit for the Isle of Wight event...
Dennis Farina as Gus Demitriou and Dustin Hoffman as Chester "Ace" Bernstein an episode of HBO's Luck ("Pilot"). It's difficult to judge a series like this based on the pilot, especially one written by David Milch. The gifted writer is famous for juggling multiple characters speaking ornate dialogue, and it can take awhile for it to click with an audience. We're dropped into the scene, with the expectation to become "track rats," with the racing terms and handicap lingo, by the end of the first episode. Michael Mann, responsible for the visuals, [...]
![[Introducing] – The Sayitaints](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4029861_lg.jpg)
Tweet I can tell you virtually nothing about The Sayitaints . There are two of them: John Gudenzi and Marc Nieto. They have one track out: "Flutter" . They're from Baltimore? They like to pump 808s. From here on out, it's just my opinion. To be perfectly honest, you're almost as well just skipping this bit and listening to the track for yourself. But let it never be said that I don't like the sound of my own voice, so [...]
Tweet vaso link I love the power of music. I love that at times I get goosebumps listening to a powerful piece of songwriting, including when set to any combination of moving images on a screen. I also love hockey. Upon a recent switch in cable providers, HBO and other premium cable channels became available in my household. Of the programs I decided to catch up on, a series I lamented being unable to watch prior was the documentation of the NHL's Winter Classic, entitled "24/7 [...]

In retrospect, with a name alluding to the famous novella written by one of my favorite authors (John Steinbeck), it was inevitable that I would explore the music of the band Of Monsters and Men. This six-piece indie/folk band is just the latest Icelandic group to emerge from the small, remote island that seemingly produces more internationally-acclaimed musicians than it should, joining the likes of Sigur Rós, Björk, Emiliana Torrini and the last artist I interviewed, Ólöf Arnalds. In 2010, Of Monsters and Men broke onto the Icelandic music scene when they won the nation-wide battle [...]
