South African indie band The Plastics are working on their second album, set to drop later this year, but before that comes together, they made this video for "Stereo Kids." The track is currently playing on most South African radio stations and has been in the Top 40 Charts for 5FM. After giving it a listen, it's easy to see why the band's sound is catching on in such a big way. The concept follows a kid at an 80's-style prom trying to woo a girl through the song. It envokes the familiar feeling of teenager [...]

Baskerville has been relentlessly trying to break onto the international scene for the past year, and just like Bassjackers and Sandro Silva before them, SecureRecordings has provided that forum. Their new EP, The Plastics, is two tracks of pure tech house grime. The lasers, scratches, syncopation, and manipulated vocals are Dutch as can be, and who [...]

It's always an exciting, yet cautious experience when listening to a new labels debut record. There is also a hope that the label is going to be excellent and that they've signed the next big thing in their particular niche. However, nine times out of ten. That mentality leads to much disappointment and a truckload of shit music in your email. Luckily for me, Initials is exactly what I'd look for in a new label. Signing an unknown artist, with plenty of talent and taste. Combined with the experience of running several other successful labels, and some trippy [...]

Perhaps inspired by Toby Keith's recent ode to the Red Solo Cup , Slate's Seth Stevenson dug deep on the history and cultural significance of the little plastic cup that could. No doubt the cup's opacity was a selling point for underage college and high-school drinkers who would prefer not to reveal exactly what they're sipping. But why red? Healy says the red-colored cups make up 60 percent of Solo party cup sales, with blue cups a distant second. "I've been here 12 years, and I've tested this over and [...]

This is one of the loveliest spoken word tracks from Ani DiFranco's career, from the epic Little Plastic Castle , one of the albums that shaped our musical tastes and our personal life.

The Plastics recently debuted their music video for 'Caroline' and it's everything you've come to love about the band, quirky, whimsical and fun. Thoughts?

Gender construction and identity seems to be one of the more prominent issues facing people of the 21 st Century as we slide further into a more progressive period. The discourse of what is gender and its relation not only on a biological level but an emotional one as well is far larger than it ever has been. Sure, we have "progressed" and adapted through the upheaval of modernity but what was usually characterized as forward thinking is backward by our standards now. For women especially, this dialogue is much needed and a topic thoroughly mulled over. [...]
