Goldroom – Only You Can Show Me (Ft. Mereki Beach)

Goldroom – Only You Can Show Me (Ft. Mereki Beach) Nothing brightens up our day quite like some new Goldroom , especially when it's an original. No surprise here that Josh Legg's latest single, "Only You Can Show Me," is yet another shining ray of summer-time electronica. In the same vein as "Fifteen," Goldroom lays some lovely female vocals over his music, this time courtesy of L.A. songstress Mereki Beach . Stream it below.

a list obligatory. the 25 best songs of 2012

All of the big year end lists are in, but I've decided to take my own whack at the best songs of 2012! I won't bore you with a huge introduction this week. You know what these lists are about. I'm counting down my favorite songs of 2012. It was a strange [...]

[PLAYLIST] Beautiful

Glory glory hallelujah, it's Friday, beautiful and wonderful Friday. In celebration of of the much needed break from the stress associated with Monday through Thursday we have a playlist of, simply put, beautiful songs. Some upbeat, fast-paced, others slow jams. Some hip-hop, some instrumental, but all full of beauty. In the case that you think something like  Insane Clown Posse is touching and beautiful, this playlist might not be so beautiful to you. But, you never know. Just listen. What's the worst that could happen?

Best Songs of 2012: Sean’s Edition

Menomena "Pique"
Here I am, left to go last once again with my favorite songs of the year. I feel as though I listened to more in 2012 than in any other year, and my musical experience was all the better for it. More music means more candidates, which admittedly makes lists like this one tougher. But [...]

TOP 25 ALBUMS OF 2012

TOP 25 ALBUMS OF 2012 ILLUSTRATION BY LYDIA CONKLIN 2012 was a spectacular year in music - one with so many records we truly loved that narrowing down the list was difficult. Ordering it, however, was almost impossible. This was a year of shifting genres and experimentation. This was a year that introduced us to some bands that will remain on rotation for years to come and albums that are already on their way to becoming modern classics.  Along with the return of many favorites, we were given the debuts from  Django Django , Alt J , Frank Ocean , [...]

Ann Arbor man Jeremy Malvin aka Chrome Sparks lets loose a... Ann Arbor man Jeremy Malvin aka Chrome Sparks lets loose a deceptively titled new single called “Send the Pain On”. With a host of soulful samples, the track works as audio medicine, letting out all of our bad and unwanted energy. Rather we focus on entertaining arena-style synths that fill the room up quickly. A massive tune. This will be off an upcoming EP this Winter. Fun Fact: When Jeremy is not working on his Sparks project, he’s off being the drummer in funtime indie-pop band Stepdad [...]

Currently Listening To: Stepdad

Currently Listening To: Stepdad Stepdad  have got quite a tune with "Must Land Running", right?  Check it out, its from their album Wildlife Pop .

Stepdad :: "Must Land Running"

Stepdad :: "Must Land Running" One of 2012's most self-assured and brash singles, Stepdad unleashes the organized cacophony of peeling synths and buzzing keys on "Must Land Running." It is widescreen pop that boils over on the self-actualizing lyrics of the chorus, "Feel it all / feel it all around you / take it back / take it back with you." The keyboards, and it feels like there are fifty of them, climb to the top of the room, flickering against the top of the arrangement like a million summer moths around a bare porch light bulb. "Must Land [...]

Pop Montreal 2012 – Stepdad @ Le Divan Orange [September 22, 2012]

Pop Montreal 2012 – Stepdad @ Le Divan Orange [September 22, 2012] On my last night from Pop Montreal 2012. Still at the POP Montréal, Evenko and Halifax Pop Explosion showcase that took place at  Le Divan Orange . After seeing Goose Hut play. The next band to go up was Grand Rapids' Stepdad . I had to say they played a really unique set. Their music was a blend of indie synth=pop electronic funk and dance music. Sort of reminded me of Passion Pit. Really enjoyable and fun [...]

Scoring a Sync on FIFA

Gone are the days when a sync placement purely involved just TV, film and advertising. An increasingly substantial part of the pie is now represented by gaming. So it's great news when we say The Orchard distributes 3 of the tracks on this year’s FIFA 13 soundtrack, including efforts by ...

LISTEN: Stepdad – “Must Land Running”

LISTEN: Stepdad – “Must Land Running” When Stepdad play the Beat Kitchen, it’ll be a homecoming of sorts for the band that has roots in Chicago, although they’re now based in Grand Rapids, Mich. If you have a penchant for incredibly catchy indie electronic pop hooks, you’re in luck when it comes to Stepdad’s “Must Land Running.” The track, from Stepdad’s 2012 album Wildlife Pop , recalls the simple beauty of nature as it bounces along with fantastic, frantic energy. The lyrics bring to mind a quainter time when kids ran freely outside instead of sitting [...]

Indie Shuffle Presents, Live in Brooklyn: Rich Aucoin, Stepdad + Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt

Tonight, a menajorie of marauding bands of rowdy men are in it for nothing but outrageous, nonsensical, and wholehearted fun. Best described by themselves as bands that are part "gym class-meets-group therapy," they're songs are simplistic in melody, straightforward in lyrics, and full of heart. Their live performances are loads of cardio and laughter. This show will be nothing short of a chaotic jamboree. Come join us tonight (9/25/2012) in Brooklyn, New York at The Glasslands Gallery as we team up with PopGun to present Rich Aucoin, Stepdad and Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt! Tickets are $10 advance, $12 [...]

Rich Aucoin w/ Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt! and Stepdad @ Lee’s Palace 09/20/2012

Rich Aucoin w/ Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt! and Stepdad @ Lee’s Palace 09/20/2012 by teepoo On Thursday I attended Rich Aucoin's live show for the first time. Rich Aucoin’s live show has grown into something more than a regular concert. It’s an interactive experience and no matter where the audience stood, they could feel like they were part of the show. - New York’s Terror Pigeon Dance Revolt! kicked the night with performance antics that were just as random as their band name. There was [...]
