Packed with electronica, indie, chillwave, and some hip hop it looks like it will be a stellar holiday weekend.

The lineup for the annual Sasquatch! Music Festival was announced last night, which takes place May 25-28 (Memorial Day Weekend) at the scenic Gorge Amphitheater in Washington State. The lineup looks solid this year, with Jack White performing solo, Bon Iver, the cast of Portlandia , and something called John Reilly & Friends, which I can only imagine is the actor, right? Portland acts other than Portlandia include M. Ward, the Shins, Wild Flag, Blind Pilot, Blitzen Trapper, the Helio Sequence, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, and Sallie Ford and the Sound Outside. Tickets go on sale [...]

Like Vampire Weekend on an Oxycontin high, Capybara brings warmth and life to a hazy landscape with Dave Drusky . At the intersection of Band of Horses and Arcade Fire, with a touch of Bon Iver and an affinity for the xylophone, is Capybara, a Kansas City quartet that has had a busy two years riding the success of their debut album Try Brother and co-signs from Spike Jonze and the Strokes. Try Brother was recorded in a frozen pueblo in New Mexico, and that same sense of warmth in a cold place emanates throughout...

After five seasons and an emotional rollercoaster of a finale, Chuck has finally come to an end. The NBC action-comedy show revolved around computer nerd-turned-spy Chuck Bartowski and his handlers Sarah Walker and John Casey. While fighting an infinite supply of villains and dealing with personal relationships that came along the way, the group grew incredibly close and ultimately became a family. Chuck has been known for its focus on indie rock in its soundtrack, using songs from the likes of The Shins, Arcade Fire, and Band of Horses. We'll miss Chuck, the hundreds [...]
Lana Del Rey - Born To Die : in questi mesi l'ho letteralmente "coccolata" (su blog e social network), un po' perchè sono stato tra i primi a puntare su di lei , un po' perchè tutto (o quasi) il materiale disponibile prima dell'uscita di "Born To Die" era di ottima fattura. Ora, riguardate un attimo il video di "Video Games"... cosa notate? Io noto l'onestà/ingenuità di una cantante di certo vogliosa di diventare una star, ma ancora "vergine"... guardate invece ora il video di "Born To Die", il passaggio da fenomeno indie-web a mainstream diva è lampante. [...]
Era lecito chiedersi se i Pulled Apart by Horses fossero dei ragazzini che dopo aver giocato con la paroxetina di mamma volessero fare i cattivi suonando sporco e veloce, o se ci fosse veramente sostanza dietro questo quartetto heavy della periferia di Leeds. Con il loro primo album, omonimo, del 2010 avevano fatto intravedere un'attitudine al rock più duro, fatto di lunghi giri di chitarra che ritornavano e ritornavano ossessivi, con la cattiveria di chi ha veramente qualcosa da dire ma con il pregio della sbeffardaggine ed insolenza che degli esordienti devono avere. Con [...]

There is a growing consensus that guitar music is in crisis. If there is any truth in this, Leeds post-hardcore garage quartet Pulled Apart By Horses sound like a band on the verge of pioneering the resurgence. After the release of their rough-round-the-edges eponymous debut in 2010, the band hit the festivals and were asked to tour with Muse, and growing as musicians, the follow-up Tough Love is a much more solid record, building on the might of early single I Punched A Lion In The Throat – a furious combination of lead singer Tom Hudson's terrifyingly straining vocals and [...]
We're nearly a month into 2012 and already festivals have begun to announce their line ups, The Maccabees and Porcelain Raft have both released cracking albums, and Grimes has revealed the dates to her eagerly anticipated European tour. Amongst this blur of music news and revelations, we here at Cloud Corner have unearthed yet another crop of fresh talent that is sure to blossom in 2012. We've made a small change to Cloud Corner for this year, and we're no longer running a voting system. While we very much appreciate your feedback, (which you can still leave [...]
The Secret Policeman's Ball at Radio City Music Hall (03/04/12) The Secret Policeman's Ball is letting America in on the party: The British-based music and comedy festival is coming to New York in March. Coldplay, Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Mumford & Sons and Russell Brand are among the acts who have signed on for the event at Radio City Music Hall on March 4. The concert will benefit Amnesty International, as it has since it started back in 1976 with celebrities [...]
Piney Gir's 2011 album Geronimo was another chapter in what is an under-rated career. She was able to craft beautiful indie pop songs that owed a debt to the 60s sounds of Spector and the Beach Boys. It was music to swoon to, music to dance to and music to harmonise to – it certainly was an interesting day in the Bowlegs office when we tried to combine those three elements while listening to the album. An interesting day and one we shall never speak of again. That aside, we thought we better catch up with Piney and [...]
"Gossip Girl here. Your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite." Now, while your phones may not be constantly ringing with blasts from Gossip Girl covering the latest news regarding Serena (Blake Lively), Blair (Leighton Meester), and their slew of family and friends' privileged lives (flawlessly balanced between turmoil and perfection), the phenomenal soundtrack is sure to stay ringing in your ears. From the drugs and partying to the twisted relationships full of lies, deceit, and love, CW's Gossip Girl has found the ideal tracks to set the backdrop and atmosphere for the fast-pasted, [...]
When we last saw a video from Shout Out Louds, they had paired a grand vision of industrial decline with a Band of Horses cover. We named it a Best Cover Video of 2010. Now they're back, with a significantly less ambitious video. It's their version of Madonna's "Ray of Light," performed backstage in Paris. The duo of Bebban Stenborg and Adam Olenius pare the pop smash down to just an acoustic guitar and two delicate voices. If Madonna plays this song at the Super Bowl, suffice to say it won't sound like this. Check out "Ray of Light" below. [...]
