Meet Spacecamp: four guys from Brooklyn with a knack for making upbeat space pop/rock with a twinge of disco. Spacecamp just recently released their debut EP, Alibi , on November 22, and have released this feature track, "Miko D.T.B." This track starts off with a galactic dance vibe and quickly shifts to a poppy [...]

![[mp3] Spoon - "Reservations" (demo) November Bonus Track](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3876437_lg.jpg)
New Bonus Track from Spoon Yet again, Spoon keeps releasing a demo version of very early songs that were rediscovered during Britt Daniel's recent move. Daniel apparently stumbled upon an old cassette tape that was made in the pre- Sneaks years. Cool! November's demo version is of A Series of Sneaks ' "Reservations". For the full list of Spoon bonus tracks, go here . Check out this month's bonus track below. MP3: Spoon [...]
Leslie Feist is an amazing Canadian talent. Beautiful, sultry, talented and cool. I dig this chick hard. Here are some remixes of a few of her gems as well as an original. How Come You Never Go There - Feist - Clock Opera Remix - London based dj's/producers Clock Opera do a great job with this track. Feist's sultry voice comes in and catapults this song into smokey lounge BANGER. I Feel It All - Feist - Britt Daniel Remix - Britt [...]
A breakdown of the Weird, the Wild, and the Fantastic acts that made Fun Fun Fun Fest 2011 live up to its name.
Fun Fun Fun Fest rounds out the festival season with a magical three-day weekend that is both very Austin-centric while also showcasing some of the most exciting talent to release material this year. The fest blends the bizarre (Captured by Robots, an all-robot metal band with songs like "Don't Shake The Baby" from a Star Trek: Next Generation -themed album), the popular mainstream indie-pop darlings (Passion Pit, The Joy Formidable), the "fucking metal" (Slayer, Cannibal Corpse), the local favorites (Autobody, Speak, just to name a few), the hilarious (comedians Matt Bearden, Henry Rollins), the dance tracks (Flying Lotus, [...]
This year Austin's Fun Fun Fun Fest moved away from Waterloo Park, the festival's stomping grounds since it began in 2006, and into the large expanse of Auditorium Shores right off Lady Bird La...

photos by Tim Griffin Spoon @ Fun Fun Fun Fest Spoon had nothing to promote and no surplus of new songs to unveil. This was just an Austin band -- Austin's biggest indie band ever -- playing an Austin festival for their only major show of 2011 (at least so far). As a live unit, the four-piece that recorded Transmission (augmented here by an additional percussionist) is as precise as Spoon has ever been, cranking out savagely controlled, often [...]
Gear up, strap in, clear your head: there is very little time to recover from Halloween before FFF Fest touches ground at its new location this weekend...lighting up Auditorium Shores from Nov.4-6 will be some of the big hey-they're-from-Austin names like Spoon , Okkervil River , Black Joe Lewis (above)...and we're going to profile some of the up + comers for you later this week. Prepare. I'm pretty sure you can wear your costume one more time.
Though unfairly saddled with playing Cindy to SXSW's Marcia and ACL's Jan, Fun Fun Fun Fest offers more music, comedy and garden-variety debauchery over a three-day period than you can shake a stick at. 2011 represents the 6th installment of this upstart festival, and if the schedule is to be believed, FFFF6 is shaping up to be one for the annals. 3-Day Passes and single day tickets are still available for a mere pittance, but if you can't make it, fear not. MOKB is sending an envoy to cover every last note, [...]
Church! Also, all that talk about spoons has reminded to go watch Forks over Knives .
As Rocktober draws to a close, there's little left to do but get all dressed up in Drive jackets and Kahl Drogo / Khaleesi from Game of Thrones and host a fun little party. The question arises: Do we get this party started or do we stick with the spookiness of Halloween? We decided to go with the latter and make a playlist (via Spotify ) of some of our favorite, scary, messed up, shifty, and uncomfortable songs to guarantee to to anything but get the party started. Well, it depends [...]
Sunturns - Christmas by spoontrain Members of the Norwegian indie acts Mylittlepony , The Little Hands of Asphalt , Monzano and Einar Stray are joining forces to record a Christmas album as the band Sunturns . Said album, which is simply titled "Christmas" , will include new tunes, covers of songs from the various member's individual catalogs, as well as covers of Low 's "Just like Christmas" and Swearing At Motorists ' "Losing mine" and will be released [...]
Black Joe Lewis & The Honeybears On Sunday, Kilter wrote a post about being blue and what he does to get out of his funk. He does what I do. Well, I like to add booze to the the mix, but to each his own. When we are bummed out, we turn to music. I'm guessing you do the same, since you are spending your time reading a music blog instead of working/getting off couch/exercising. True to the music nerd he is, Kilter cranks up the Blues to [...]

Black Partridge comprises two brothers from Illinois. The duo have a unique sound that fuses lo-fi rock and pop with caressing sentiments of shoegaze and dream-pop. The older brother, Vito, plays the bass guitar while Mick takes over vocals and guitar. While the pair has yet to release an album, they have four songs available [...]

Usually when bands disband and fade into oblivion, it's assumed they will stay there, especially when it's been ten plus years. Neutral Milk Hotel has forcefully meandered back into the limelight defying all of our expectations. Over the past [...]
Shiny and the Spoon's Ferris Wheel is another success story for Kickstarter, the project funding website enabled the band to raise the cash to record, mix, master and release their debut full length album whilst rewarding their fans at the same time, Ferris Wheel is the follow up to their self titled EP I had the pleasure of listening and writing a few words about last summer. I'm pleased to say the new release is more of the same from Amber Nash (vocals, ukulele) and Jordan Neff (vocals, guitar) who have added [...]
