by Bill Pearis While this year's Mercury Prize winner Speech Debelle canceled her CMJ appearances last week due to Visa issues, one of her fellow Mercury nominees, The Invisible , have managed to get their ducks in order and will be playing three NYC shows next week: a free show at Brooklyn Bowl on Wednesday (11/4), Santos on Thursday (11/5) opening for Dragonette, and Friday (11/6) at Pianos. The Invisible were named part [...]
...said Neil Tennant a few years back. I don't normally post new stuff very often (if at all - I can't actually think of any track that's made it onto this site that's been less than a year old*) but I'm making a couple of exceptions tonight. I feel the need to share two hot-off-the-press brand new tracks that have been tickling my fancy the past couple of days. First up, the Flaming Lips . The mid-west psychedelic pioneers have an album out on 13th October and this track has [...]
Earlier this month, WFMU brought an all-star crew up to Kutsher's Country Club for the second annual NY installment of the All Tomorrow's Parties festival. For everyone who missed the live broadcast , we'll be archiving many of them for on-demand listening on WFMU's blog and Free Music Archive, starting this week. We've lined up a post a day from the likes of Deerhoof, Deerhunter, Atlas Sound, The Melvins, Grouper, Akron/Family, Black Dice, the Dirty Three (w/ Nick Cave!), and more surprises await. Let's start things off with the 16-person Caribou Vibration Ensemble, which featured [...]
"The breezy Neptunes production provides a laid back atmosphere as Mr. Brain gives the people a look into the good life and what occurs in his world outside of the booth. There is a lot of work being done right now by the Kidz in the Hall to wrap up their album, The Land of Make Believe, due out in February as well as an untitled free EP and the Reality Bites mixtape with Chicago's DJ Moondawg due out early to mid October."

...while we told you all about the new Eat Sugar EP, It's Not Our Responsibility , back in the spring, today marks the official release for the world... ...First, a little background refresher: After releasing a self-titled debut EP in 2006, Eat Sugar-Aidan Bogosian (vocals), Mike McBride (synths), Greg Poneris (drums) and Jim Reynolds (bass and synths)- traveled throughout the region, ultimately heading to Europe for a short tour in early 2008. Around this time, the band met up with Brainiac / Enon alumni, producer John Schmersal, who agreed to work with the [...]
My apologies to Vic Mensa for putting an "h" in his name previously. The youngest member of the Brainiac crew takes us to "Space Camp", which I always wanted to attend as a child. My parents pulled the Cubs on me with the repeating of, "maybe next summer." Multiple attempts to win such a trip on Double Dare also were thwarted...This joint is produced by the Brainiac in house team of Nez & Rio, and has an 80's dance feel. I let the Contraband King fill you in below.

Adventureland is a sweet coming of age comedy-drama written and produced by Greg Mottola (the director of Superbad) based on his own experiences working at an amusement park in the late 1980s. Jesse Eisenberg is James, a pothead virgin who is romantically interested in Em (Kristen Stewart), who is sneaking off with married handyman Mike (Ryan Reynolds). Fueled by a fun 80's soundtrack, the humor is largely delivered by Saturday Night Live's Bill Hader and Kristen Wiig as the park owners and Martin Starr as a Jewish brainiac who sees anti-Semitism in every first date. As summer comes to a [...]

...we realize that we have failed this summer in bringing you any coverage whatsoever on Canal Street Tavern's summer institution for young bands, The Annual Dayton Band Playoffs. While most in Dayton know of this event's legacy, let's remind everyone that such Dayton notables as The Method, Brainiac, Real Lulu, and Shrug all stand as past champions. Although in recent years it's been overlooked, the Playoffs continue to provide young bands with an opportunity to play in a great room on a great stage... ...it appears as if this year we find one of our favorite [...]
Ray School Class of '96's Fooch reups his Dilla Freestyle series with "Gobstopper".

The Brainiac and the Double O channel their inner 8-Bit Nintendo with this one and why shouldn't they? With the album Land Of Make Believe right around the corner, expect even imaginative conceptions from the mind of these Mensa musicians. Click the picture to get "Flickin'" from iTunes.
Ever since seeing them at SXSW this year, my fingers have found themselves choosing The Wrens on my Ipod pretty consistently. Their live show was a total force of nature, a tsunami of hooks and energy, that left me slackjawed and thrilled; it had been a long time since I had a band knock me on my backside like that. Their history is one of music-industry legend, similar in some respect to YHF-era Wilco , so although they've been around some 20 years now, they've only put out three full-length records and a [...]

Musical Pairings: The Weird Bay Area – Maus Haus and Casy & Brian
If you are a Bay Area resident or watch a little television, you've probably noticed that the Bay Area is a place that embraces the eccentric and unusual. Even our oddness is somewhat peculiar in its diversity. This unique offbeat nature plays out in some interesting ways in Bay Area culture. You see it at elaborately whimsical house parties thrown by tech-industry residents. You see it in the diverse range of punks, hipsters, and unclassifiables hanging out in Delores Park on pretty much any day of the week. You taste it when you order creme brulee from a cart or [...]
