Established in 2004, Moodgadget Records has been nurturing the electronic music making process for artists such as Mux Mool, SHIGETO, TEEEL, and André Obin to name a few, but that's just beginning of the list. Jakub Alexander and Adam Hunt built this label from the ground up in Ann Arbor, Michigan, eventually making their way to Brooklyn, New York. Now based in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles, Moodgadget has continued to break down the walls, foraging a new path for electronic music. Although this introduction is long overdue, some artists working with them have recently put out new releases. One being Mux [...]
Nuovo appuntamento per la sagra degli spin-off degli Hercules and Love Affair , da cui ricordiamo hanno già fatto capolino Nomi Ruiz e i suoi Jessica 6 e Kim Ann Foxman . Oggi è il turno di Aérea Negrot che però, bisogna specificare, non nasce da una costola di Andrew Butler come successo invece per i compagni del collettivo newyorkese. La venezuelana di camera a Berlino è infatti un' habitué di casa BPitch Control, coccolata da zia Ellen Allien e calorosamente accolta nel carrozzone live dell'etichetta tedesca; proprio [...]
It's not everyday Drake gives you a shout out on his social networks promoting your album. A call out like that usually get your noticed (see: The Weeknd). This time Drake throws some recognition to Slakah The Beatchild's side project, The Slakadeliqs, noting "One of his favorite producers he ever worked with just dropped his album" on his Twitter . After giving it a listen, I have to say its not what I expected going in being that he produced work with Drake. But that certainly isn't a bad thing. The upbeat and instrument heavy album has a great [...]
Cool Rainbows - Tidal Wave This is one of those instances where the B-side is (arguably) more promising than the intended single. Last month, Djeisan Suskov of Cool Rainbows unveiled "Southern Summer Sun" , the first release from his band's debut project Whale Rocket . It was alright! In fact, it was more than alright! A bit too laid-back for my personal tastes, but one has to appreciate all the hard work and "sonic noodling" that went into crafting the song. [...]
Magnetic Poetry - With You Magnetic Poetry - All I Want The opening synth line of Magnetic Poetry 's "With You" calls to mind Katy Perry 's "Hot N Cold" or Paris Hilton 's criminally-underrated dance jam "Nothing In This World" . Alas, once you hit the twelve-second mark, it becomes blatantly clear that Russian duo Magnetic Poetry are not a pop band. At this point, you're thrown into a swirling 1980s middle school dance groove, shortly followed [...]
' Have you seen the world in that one million camera? ' chiede Edda Magnason poco dopo aver premuto play sul lettore. E formula la domanda con variazioni di pronuncia, di tono, di ritmi, di inclinazione, più e più volte, come a racchiudere in ogni frase (che poi è sempre la stessa) il mondo stesso. Se il mondo non l'hai visto in una video o fotocamera da un milione, Edda allora te lo fa ascoltare, e l'accesso è dall'entrata principale: basterebbe descrivere soltanto questa prima traccia ("Camera") per aver chiara la prerogativa dell'artista: fare immergere l'ascoltatore [...]

Rude Audio are a South London based collective of vocalists, musicians, producers and engineers. Their debut album 'That Dirty Echo' sees the group exploring new sounds that transcend electronic and dance genres. A collective formed through a mutual love of complex musical styles and global dance fusions, Rude Audio encapsulates London`s love for Big Beats, Dubstep, wholesale Electro madness and a total disregard for commercialized genre boundaries. With heaps of technical knowledge on tap, there was never any doubt this debut long player would be anything than an exciting release - Rude Audio have honestly created [...]
Se scrivessi soltanto che le canzoni di questo EP sono state composte da due ragazzi nella loro camera da letto si potrebbe pensare che questo è un disco di canzoni ad alto tasso di sussurri e sospiri stile Jane Birkin e Serge Gainsbourg . Cari maliziosetti che ho mandato fuori strada, "Sun in The Winter" suona davvero come un disco composto a letto, perchè è un viaggio in fase R.E.M. (no, Michael Stipe non c'entra) spezzettato in quattro parti, ambientato in una dimensione dalle coordinate indefinite.</p> [...]
Head over to the HSR blog to read a wonderful track by track breakdown of Liam Singer's 2010 masterpiece Dislocatia (by the man himself!). If that wasn't enough we're also giving away copies of the Dislocatia CD for two lucky folks. Read and win here !
Ascoltare un album senza forma, liquido, che scorre come un flusso di coscienza senza briglie è un'esperienza che fa da sponda tra la cantilena della voce interiore di un serial killer all'opera ed il sogno ad occhi aperti di una bambina che corre in un prato. Come girare forte su se stessi, fermarsi di colpo e provare a mantenere l'equilibrio. Tradotto in musica, è creare un patchwork di campionature, dalle più disparate fonti, strumenti che fanno capolino qua e là, senza essere annunciati, senza permesso, come elementi improvvisi che disturbano e caratterizzano un sogno, tra sintetizzatori e una voce [...]

[NEW ARTIST] ::M∆DE:IN:HEIGHTS:: - APORIA: IN THESE §TREETS Last week I asked my tweeps who their favorite new bandcamp artists were and my girl Selomé aka @dangerdome also the curator of Dipped In Dollars pointed me towards this little gem. I agree with her when she says, "At times they remind me of Purity Ring only the vocals are a bit cleaner and the beats hit so much harder." They are so awesome they have even defined their own genre as " Mythical Filth Pop " I've never heard of it [...]
Cosa dire di un disco di cui, a svariati mesi dall'uscita, già s'è detto tutto. Settimo disco della popstar islandese, progetto multimediale, primo app-album della storia dell'umanità – Steve Jobs, buonanima, ringrazia sentitamente. Tecnologia, natura, tecnologia che si ricongiunge alla natura, natura che si rispecchia nella tecnologia e via dicendo; strumentazioni al limite del paranormale, pendoli e bobine di tesla cantanti, enormi carillon dal nome impronunciabile e assurdi incroci tra celeste e gamelan comandabili da costosi tablet, roba da far mangiare il fegato a Laurie Anderson . Esclusivi concerti in pacchetti da 6 esibizioni in poche, selezionate città [...]
IFUCKINGLOVEYOU from Big Black Delta on Vimeo . "Capsize" from BBDLP1 out September 26 on Coming Home Records If you live in Los Angeles and you haven't been to one of Big Black Delta's shows yet, you'd be making a huge mistake by missing the last night of their residency at The Satellite tonight. I've been to a few already and the live show is incredible-no house lights, just a multi-colored light board synchronized with the music. Jonathan Bates (aka Big Black Delta) slinking around the stage [...]
[ download ] [tweetmeme] Euro-style dramatics have always been a hard sell to American pop music audiences, at least since rock music took over the charts from the crooners for good back in the 1960s. Us Yanks will gobble up melodrama if it's a working class anthem from Mellencamp or Springsteen, or if it's a goofy horror movie theatrics like Alice Cooper or Kiss. But give us a dude with an Edith Piaf jones lamenting over strings and piano and we're likely to run screaming for the hills. We [...]
On St. VIncent's latest album, singer-songwriter Annie Clark comes together with some pretty bold and experimental flavors. I wouldn't be surprised if fans found this to be a stranger record than 20092s Actor. But while many moments on Strange Mercy are, uh, strange, I found this record incredibly easy to get into. WATCH THE REVIEW
Active Child's sophomore release has some pretty haunting and beautiful sounds. Lone member Pat Grossi's choir boy falsetto is undeniably good. Plus, all the effects he laces into these tracks makes this LP an interesting listen. While I'm not in love with every song on this LP, the sounds are stellar. In my opinion, what's best are the couple tracks where Active Child embraces the sound of experimental R&B. That's an idea I'd love to hear explored further. WATCH THE REVIEW
[ download ] [tweetmeme] Chucha Santamaria y Usted don't just have one of the longest names in the indie community, they back up those letters with musical heft. "Fiebre Tropical" clocks in at only 2:40, yet it more than justifies the length of their moniker. "Fiebre Tropical" is the first single from Chucha Santamaria y Usted's self-titled debut mini LP , which the Austin boutique label Young Cubs released in June. Though their sound encompasses that of an entire ensemble, Chucha Santamaria y [...]
[ download ] [tweetmeme] It feels pretty safe to say that just about everything's been done. In modern music originality seems to come only in interpretation and spin rather than in form or content. That's not at all a cynical statement, but rather one that points out the limitations and frankly, the effectiveness, of certain musical forms. Harmony is pleasing, certain chord progressions work to embed themselves in our memories, easily recalled and whistled or hummed when needed, and on and on and on. What's more, it seems like [...]
