Breaking up is hard to do. Everyone is doing it. Russell Brand and Katy Perry. A famous professional athlete and a woman millions of other men would like to get to know intimately. Will and Jada. Ike and Tina Turner. Unfortunately for my tender heart, many Seattle bands are breaking up as well. Spurm is not the only one who [...]
Monogamy Party ::: photo by Josh Lovseth While other venues may be cancelling shows, Monogamy Party and Black Lodge are partying tonight no matter the weather. And we assure you, whatever weather you have to brave to get there, this is a spectacle you don't want to miss. Monogamy Party gets nasty, and not in any [...]
Merry Moondoggies ::: photo by Abbey Simmons I get tired of writing about the same bands all the time. Just as I'm sure you get tired of reading me write about the same bands over and over again. So what do you think I did for this holiday season? I wrote a letter to the North [...]
We Wrote the Book on Connectors as Beastie Boys ::: photo by Josh Lovseth Some traditions die hard should have never been started. Last year I gave you a Halloween weekend preview that was basically a third party eavesdropping on a hipster having a conversation on his cellular phone. This year will be a different. You [...]

Old Jkriv and Lou Teti (of Disco Munga fame...) have teamed up to collaborate on a new track called Elisco. The track is a gorgeously gentle hazy disco tinged groover. Sensual but not overpowering. The new package also comes with remixes from Alphabet City, Leftside Wobble, Space Ranger, Black Lodge and Sleazy McQueen that will be out on vinyl Oct 17th with Digital sometime in November.

Up until now, Sweden's answer to AC/DC have been just that -- a Scandinavian version of Angus Young and co. that at times sounded more like the Aussie quintet than they did themselves. Bullet did it with such class, however, that there were rarely cries of 'rip-off'; rather, the majority of people who found their way to the band raved about their similarities in a positive light. Three albums in and we still have that unquestionable 'DC style, but "Highway pirates" shows that the band have this time found a voice more [...]
Sexy, rich classiness is all the rage with Space Rangers vintage embodied 'Phase Fever' and their airy 20,000 leagues under the sea voyage with Rayko's remix of 'Superstring.' Two very heart-remembering bits of music that'll leave everyone in shock and awe as much as seeing a bride in her wedding dress dangling from a very [...]

Sexy, rich classiness is all the rage with Space Rangers vintage embodied 'Phase Fever' and their airy 20,000 leagues under the sea voyage with Rayko's remix of 'Superstring.' Two very heart-remembering bits of music that'll leave everyone in shock and awe as much as seeing a bride in her wedding dress dangling from a very tall building - prior to her being jilted at the alter ... Taken from their forthcoming LP-delight entitled What About The Magnetic Fields? there is no question about not getting exposed to any high [...]
Well, that's it. I am telling my hunting party to circle the wagons. I'm closing up shop for the rest of May. I will ignore what I hope to be a long, beautiful Seattle summer. When fall ends and November ushers in another half year of grey, will it matter? Future emails that are music [...]
Capsule, the complete opposite of Rick Ross. Tonight. You escape whatever droll existence you have tied yourself down to unnecessarily and you embrace a night that is filled with music. Some of you will dance. Some of you will tambourine. Some of you will thrash. The rest of you will cower in your abodes, fixated on [...]
If Godzilla is on your show poster, I will talk about you. Didn't I see you at Weedeater on Monday night? Oh, I didn't? That's because I was played hooky and wasn't there. Where I was happens to be none of your business (read: sitting on my bed, fatigued and shoegazing). The underlining point is that [...]

F ilthy and I were talking literally a few days ago about the time that electro French house sound circa 2ish years ago (think Falke, Lifelike, Anoraak, College, DVAS, Justin Faust) was king. Whilst the quality and credability of a musician is always going to change, a song is a fixed thing that can define an era. Anoraak is an artist who has continued to successfully pioneer his sound - and his latest remix for the very gay French female duo Mansfield TYA is a continuation of [...]
