Bay area hip-hop duo, Zion I Have created a 5 track EP Celebrating 420. This collection predominantly consists of songs from Zion I's DJ AmpLive but also features a few new members to the Zion I sound including MkSmth, Knowitall, and Neon Brown . All of who fit nicely into the Music niche that Zion I has seemingly created with little help. On the Mic we are blessed to hear up and coming CA, MC Fashawn, and similar artists , D.U.S.T., Nump and Povi Tamu. The collection of songs can be found for free on their [...]
If you are a smoker, midnight toker or just have your new “green” card and are looking for the right device, well we have found it for you. While at the Hard Rock Pool party during Fauxchella we met the good people from Ploom and they were nice enough to equip us with their new ultra premium vaporizer called the PAX. From the moment you open the box you know you have something special in your hands. The packaging slides out to reveal a flattened cylinder approximately 3” inches long and small LED indicator light.

The US Hockey team beat the Russians, CNN debuted, J.R. was shot on TV and the pop charts were a mix of later-era disco, new wave and rock and rollers reaching their commercial peak. Here are the Top 10 Rock Hits of 1980 according to me (who else?!). 10. The J. Geils Band - "Love Stinks" I was 18 at the time. Love did stink. 9. John Lennon - "(Just Like) Starting Over" Sadly, it was just coming [...]
There is something oddly sophisticated about new wave and power pop bands from the 1980s. Getting away with this style today is seemingly impossible to my ears. Current bands try, but honestly lack an entire era of support. Maybe it is a phase I am in, but when I discover a band like The Vapors, as I sift through a record shop, I feel like it is fate. If you have not heard of this semi-successful underrated English band from the 802s, I am pleased to introduce you. New Clear Days is the band's first album featuring [...]
2012 was a good year for Action Bronson . He picked up a cult following and enough buzz to land a deal with VICE Records. While some rappers might polish themselves into nicely packaged mainstream rap stars, Bronson has maintained the gritty style and slick rhymes that made us fans in the first place. He's a rapper's rapper, trading catchy choruses and accessible sing-alongs for non-stop flows and densely packed quotables. Today he keeps it moving with his Alchemist-produced free project, Rare Chandeliers . Bronson took some time out (while watching women’s body-building) [...]
Viva El Cuco Recordings!! For El Cuco's ninth release they bring you their good friend PROPER VILLAINS with two moombahton smashers. "Rock the Horns" stays true to the original big room Moombahton while the collaboration with Rex Riot on "Vaporize" brings it home with the Moombahcore. In Proper Villains' own words, "Rock the Horns" is "...kind of like if Crookers, Dillon Francis & 2 Chainz got into a knife fight in the ball pit at Chuck E Cheese." The artist says of "Vaporize": "...some weird, future moombahcore transformers having sex with illegal Russian laser music." These [...]
By this estimation, the decade of the One Hit Wonder was the 1970s, as our panel of potentially stranded passengers voted for 18 tracks from that era to take along on their doomed trip. The 1980s came in second, followed by the 1960s and 1990s (in a tie), and then the 2000s. A quartet of these shooting-star songs received multiple [...]
Submatik - Vapor (WIP) Back in the 90’s, I thought all types of electronic music could be classified as techno. Nowadays, the genres are limitless and as a result, so are the types of bias. Having listened to dubstep and found little appreciation for it, I welcomed the era of post-dubstep . It shook things up and brought back attention to the artists who have been changing up the world of electronic music . Since Submatik is best known for pure dubstep , I didn’t expect to [...]

I'm done with nicotine products. For good. I've been a tobacco smoker for more than half of my existence, and I've had enough. This morning I smoked my last cigarette. I didn't enjoy it. How could I? Filthy fucking things... I'm not going to get into some kind of fucked up lecture, because if that… Read More

In the stream of excellent hard-hitting power-pop albums that were released in the aftermath of the punk explosion, there were bound to be a couple ones forgotten, or associated bands being relegated to one-hit wonder status. The Vapors, famous to anime fans and frequent listeners of the Dr. Demento show for their deliciously warped hit

In past instalments of this series I have been very careful to issue a caveat about the music that I would feature, emphasising that the songs were chosen not because I endorsed them, but because they had the power to transport me back to a particular time or place. This caveat still applies, but it is becoming less necessary than before as the series goes on. This episode features some of my all-time favourite singles, and a few songs which I don’t mind hearing again. There is only among these eight songs from which I’d emphatically have to distance myself. [...]
Baths is Will Wiesenfeld, a native of Tarzana, who in the last year has gone from contented obscurity to becoming somewhat of a luminary in the chill-wave scene. Under the monikers Post-Foetus and Geotic , Wiesenfeld self-released a number of albums, however he perfected his brand with the release of Cerulean, Baths' debut album recorded over two months in the comfort of his own bedroom. In an amalgamation of traditional instrumentation, electronic aspects and ambient noise - clicking pens, rustling blankets, scissor snaps among other found objects - Wiesenfeld has managed to craft a series of [...]
