After being the bestest of friends for years, we're happy to have the first ever release by the always on point Canadians, Smalltown DJs on Top Billin. Featuring the vocals of Alanna Stuart of Bonjay , this ep is jam packed with club tunes ranging from dancehall vibed rhythms to pumping house versions, a must have.

The Canadian duo's uncanny ability to make crowds feel like schoolkids at recess stems naturally from their focus [...]
Man Legs // Cosmic Chief I've been a big fan of the young Calgary band Man Legs for a while now. I blogged about them a few times way back in the day. But given the nature of the blogging beast, sometimes it's hard to keep track of all the music that passes through my ears and I'm afraid to say that these dudes probably got lost in the shuffle somewhere along the way. Well I'm happy to announce that Man Legs has made a huge comeback from [...]
Pirates of the Weird and Wonderful The excitement of 9 new Chad VanGaalen tracks landing in my inbox is a little bit overwhelming, especially when it's delivered with news of a split 123 with the ever evolving and extremely weird Xiu Xiu. The 123 is the second release in a series of amazing collaborations being pedalled by German label The Altin Village & Mine Records. The first release came in March 2010, featuring the primal drone of Oneida and the [...]

Download them both for FREE now. El_Txef_A - Calgary re-edit [ download here ] El_Txef_A - See It All near u [...]

Bon Iver has been featured on BGB for awhile now and I recently got the entire album on Spotify and listen to it in entirety twice a day for the last two weeks. Throw this on when you are in the right mood, and just sit back and enjoy the sounds. Each song brings a different flavor and I recently check out this Billboard.com post about each song and enjoyed their commentary and take on each beat. I have to demand that anyone and everyone support this talented group and buy the album on iTunes or [...]

All delivered with panache...BJM fans ought to enjoy this, as will geezers like me who actually remember when lots of bands tried (and failed) to make music this good. Eighteen tracks, no filler.

The Bon Iver video for "Holocene" debuted on National Geographic's website this morning and with the stunning landscapes that are shown in the video I can't think of a better site to premiere it. The video simply follows a young boy as he wanders through Iceland and some of the most pristine places on Earth. Admittedly, I haven't spent much time with Bon Iver's new, creatively titled, album Bon Iver, Bon Iver but now I know what I'm doing this afternoon. In related news, it was announced this morning via James [...]
