Houses | A Quiet Darkness Words by Katie Malcolmson Indie has been saturated with bedroom electronica projects ever since it became glaringly obvious that anybody with an ounce of common sense (not necessarily musicality) and a Mac with Garage Band could knock out a half decent beat and plonk some kind of vague melody on top of it. Upload yr sick tracks to Soundcloud, ask yr friendz to share it on Facebook; “Listen! Like! Share!” and VOILA – you have a bedroom electronica project. Duo Dexter Tortoriello and [...]

Does something like a satisfying gloom really exists? A certain sense of relief within the deepest depression? It's a fascinating idea that is worth to be thinked about a bit longer. Especially in the context of a band like THE NATIONAL and a character like frontman Matt Berninger.

Denmark… it’s something in the water over there. They just know how to create better music than the rest of us. Case in point: WHEN SAINTS GO MACHINE and their newest release Infinity Pool, a stunning mirage of psychedelic electro pop, which also blends in enough elements of rave (without all the boisterous party and The post When Saints Go Machine - Infinity Pool appeared first on Nothing But Hope And Passion - NBHAP - Music Magazine & more .

Great Googa Mooga (May 17-19, 2013) Photo : D. Caplan The second annual Great Googa Mooga starts tonight in Prospect Park with a paid concert by The Darkness, The Flaming Lips and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs . Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings , who were supposed to headline Sunday's show, are being replaced by Kool and the Gang due to " an urgent family matter ." I'm sure that will be a disappointment for both concertgoers and Sharon Jones alike, who last [...]

Robin Daily is a Vancouver native but took Music Business & Production Emphasis in Nashville, Ten A Key. He made it quite clear with his first project that his sound was experimental and darker than the rest of the "Trap" that has been coming out in the past year. I personally wouldn't completely call him "Trap" but a experimental darker southern style of it. Four months ago he released his first project " optx " which had 2 great original pieces and 3 remixes including a very interesting take on Led Zeppelin's " No Quarter " & TI & Bun B's [...]

[photo by @faithsilva ] You heard the super heavy " Rellahmatic " last week, and today producer Lee Bannon drops his stellar and extremely moody new Never/mind/the/darkness/of/it. .. EP. Darkness is the recurring theme, obviously; shades of Burial, Clams, trap, etc. Very worthy of your $5 via Lee Bannon's bandcamp . listen and fall asleep — LEE BANNON (@BANNON916) May 16, 2013
A new collection of tracks from producer Lee Bannon, the followup to the Caligula Theme Music project he dropped a few months ago. Like that group of tracks, Never/mind/the/darkness/of/it has a strong trap influence go it, but Bannon makes use of space and ethereal effects for a moodier tone. Enjoy!
The 25 year old British-Japanese Producer/DJ, Maya Jane Coles, has dropped off the official video for her single Everything today! Besides being an awesome deep house jam, the song is paired with visuals which compliment the creepiness, which I'm totally diggin'. It's wonderful to see an artist stay true to what they love; in this case a dark and eery feel, which seems to be the aura Maya usual goes for! Definitely a quality set of music and visuals, look below to purchase the official single! Purchase: Maya Jane Coles Feat. Karin Park - Everything [...]

Mit "Mind-forged Manacles" und "Dollstown" haben sich die Ausnahmekünstler rund um Mastermind Mikey bereits einen sehr avantgardistischen Ruf erspielt. Dunkler Darkwave, eine sehr außergewöhnliche Stimme, viel Cabaret und ein unkonventionelles Songwriting sind die Markenzeichen von AlterRed. Ihr neues Album "The Time It Takes To Smile", welches Ende Juni erscheinen wird, steht bereits exklusiv auf Bandcamp in voller Länge zum Streamen bereit. Daneben hat sich die Band entschieden, die beiden Vorgänger als 'name your price' Download anzubieten, was bedeutend, wer nicht möchte, der zahlt auch nichts. [...]
![[News] Y Not Festival Lineup](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4941615_lg.jpg)
You know what I enjoy even more than the UK's biggest festivals? The smaller ones. Last year I ventured back into my home county of Derbyshire to hit up Y Not festival , a homegrown, grass roots built from the ground up festival. Boy did I have a good time. The likes of The Wombats, We Are Scientists, Pulled Apart By Horses, Roots Manuva, Little Comets and a host more across numerous stages graced the fields. This year promises to be even bigger, and with the winning the best small festival award last year, they're going to [...]

THE MAGICIAN summed DU TONC up perfectly, ‘deep, beautiful and melancholic’. The duo's ( VAN SHE 's MATT VAN SCHIE on lead vocals & MIGHTY MOUSE ) latest single 'Surging Memories' showcases their ability to write catchy melodies and fuse live bass, guitar and drums with their love of synthesizer’s; glued together and ignited by a stunning vocal performance. It was THE MAGICIAN who premiered ‘Darkness’, the debut single from DU TONC back in January of this year. TENSNAKE put ‘Darkness’ in his BBC Radio Essential mix and it’s since gone on [...]
Reducer (Single) by Hanz A heavy, brooding and semi-industrial new single from beatsmith Hanz. Download the track for free on his Bandcamp, and make sure to check out the full-length he dropped last year . Enjoy!

Du Tonc - the new disco-pop group consisting of Mighty Mouse and Matt Van Schie ( Van She ) - have followed up the well-received " Darkness " with their sophomore single, "Surging Memories." The track echoes some of the themes of "Darkness" and seamlessly mates Van She's pop rock sensibilities with Mighty Mouse's disco-laden production. Paced by a warm bassline, uplifting chord progressions, Van Schie's dreamy vocals and light disco strings, "Surging Memories" further establishes this new pairing as something worth following. Fortunately for us, Du Tonc have begun to announce tour dates for this summer and [...]
