Call this an official request: I'd like for someone on that upper end to go ahead and make me a little page. This page, ultimately, will be my little column. In my imagination, I fill it with my ideas and comments on popular culture, I trash talk, rant, and curse the things I find distasteful. In my imagination, I smile and wax poetic; on and on about songs and ideas that best my expectations and send shivers wiggling warm and fuzzy in this, my little column. If you guys ever get me a column, I've chosen a name. [...]
Here it is. The freshest dubstep for all you dubstep lovers. I got a hold of an essential mix by Rusko that was recorded on 12/12/2008. this shit is dope as hell. If you don't know Rusko heres the Biography: "Christopher Mercer, aka Rusko was born in Leeds in 1985 to a musical family. From day dot Rusko was surrounded by music whether it be his families piano's, guitars, banjo's and saxophones…or in his later years the heavy reggae and dub sound systems of Leeds, music has always been an integral part of Rusko's life. After [...]
Meterhead - EP Four When I saw that Discobelle and IHEARTCOMIX received the new EP #4 from Meterhead yesterday I was downtrodden to say the least. I mean, I've been down with Meterhead from the get go , where was my EP I thought. Well, apparently their email was simply lost in the shuffle, I received the EP today. You know how this email thing works, sometimes the emailman loses a package or two, takes the wrong exit on the information superhighway, stops by a couple of porn sites. No biggie…..which [...]
of Lykke Li these days. No matter how many times you listen to her album or various remixes, she seems to never get old. She'll be here in Texas next month. Of course she WILL NOT be making a stop in Houston, UNLESS someone wants to book her out here . I'm really digging these remixes or collaborations with her today. So take a listen. Lykke Li will be performing at the Granada in Dallas February 18th, and at Antone's in Austin February 19th. You can purchase your tickets in advance here: Granada Theatre [...]
Essau Mwamwaya and Radioclit are the Very Best Essau Mwamwaya comes from Malawi and has teamed up with the British producer Radioclit for a mixtape. The tape fuses elements of a more traditional African sound with modern production techniques. The results are pretty pleasing. What's better is the pair decided to release it for free. You can grab that here. Download audio file (wena.mp3) Essau Mwamwaya and Radioclit - Wena [...]
Ungdomskulen is a lo-fi, power pop trio from Norway. Their name, which looks and sounds like the name of a character from Lord of the Rings, roughly translates to "junior high school" in English. Using tons of reverb, Ungdomskulen creates seven minute musical expeditions that defy the limitations of only having three band members. Throughout most of the album, they are in full stoner rock mode, intertwining bass rhythms, guitar riffs, drum loops and the occasional cowbell for three or four minutes straight without any vocals. The pop part comes into play whenever lead singer Kristian Stockhaus sings melodies [...]
All aboard! Perhaps this is a good place to vent. I'm not sure a great number of people will even read most of this article, which grants me clearance to say whatever the hell I want. Lo, the bittersweet irony. Battles - Atlas Download audio file (atlas.mp3) To people attending warehouse parties: Please note that we live there. Yep. People live in that warehouse. Yes, the very one in which you are drunkenly mucking about. [...]
Er, Astrologist? That's what they're called right? Well, I'm not one. Sure, I enjoy planetary configs, prolly more than the average urbanite in fact; I saw Jupiter, Venus & the Moon smile at me Dec 2nd, and I know Pluto entered Capricorn in late Nov....but what does that mean to you loyal HMH reader.... well Ima tell you 1 ITS TIME TO PARTY - its time to assemble, organize, and make some CHANGES... Yes indeed. No Obama campaigning here, this is all Capricorns doing, our new prez is merely a vessel, albeit [...]
The warehouse district has been poppin' lately, hasn't it? Tonite there's some great shows at places like boondocks, the mink, house of blues, warehouse and way more, and after you have fun there you can head of over to 2220 Commerce and continue getting hot and sweaty on the dancefloor. The last time I was there it was a last minute pop in, but they had decent vodka (meaning vodka my snobbly ass would drink) and some other type of liquor....we'll say whiskey, so that was pretty rad. But of course, you should bring something too coz [...]

I skated into work ten minutes late and sat down after the requisite "wuddup" to the appropriate coworkers, flipped on the monitor and was about to go into my headphones. Before I got that far the other tech writer asked if I'd heard of this band, Fol Chen. Two youtube videos and ten minutes later, with 20 minutes of documented slack time behind me, I popped over to amazon to pick up this album. Good stuff here, good stuff I think. The sound ranges from light poppy tracks like Wedding Cake to the melancholy drum machine driven You [...]
