I’ve kind of gotten to the point here at Sirens where I can’t write something substantial and deserving of every piece of music that comes my way. This is not because I receive an ungodly amount of submissions (though there are plenty), it’s more because of other commitments like work, school, being a husband and raising a child. With that said, I feel bad to skip and hop through music looking for easily recognizable diamonds and possibly overlooking others that I should have wrote more about. So I’m going to compromise in the only way I can think [...]
While sending us the link for the free e.p. Hate to Love the City, Greg Preston told us: I wanted the music we produce to have a commonality with older classic garage and 4-piece bands, raw and indebted to the reckless nature of our live performances. We recorded live off the floor. No click track or multiple takes, but filtered through a mountain of analogue courtesy of producer Michael Keire (Wildlife, Dark Mean, Apostle of Hustle). We say that the Hamilton, Canada, based band will have your mind blown in no time. [...]

This is how we rock and roll. The Stooges, The Cramps, The Gun Club, the muthafuckin' blues. "Leave the Light On" has the energy, conviction, and raw power that make the best rock and roll.

Well here we are, half way through another cold week in the mountains. I'm really hoping the sun breaks through soon as this weekend I will taking off to Dunster, BC for the Robson Valley Music Festival . As a first time attendee, I have been forewarned of the unavoidable hippy interactions coming my way in a few days. Overall, I am not too familiar with many of the bands playing at the RVMF but there seems to be a good contingent of Vancouver-based Folk acts...which should be nice. Instead of getting ready for the [...]

Σχεδόν το καλύτερο του μήνα. SBTRKT είναι ο Aaron Jerome. Εκ του περισσού αναφέρω: προφέρεται subtract. Τί αφαιρεί; Τη φυσική παρουσία του φορώντας μάσκα για να μην απασχολεί την αντιληψή μας τίποτε άλλο εκτός από τον ήχο. Τι καλός παραγωγός θα ήταν αν δεν σκεφτόταν έτσι. Αφαιρετέα και η φωνή του μια και έχει στη διάθεσή του θαυμάσια φωνητικά από Yukimi Nagano, (Little Dragon), Shampha, Jessie Ware , και Roses Gabor. Αναγκαστικά dubstep θα το πεις , αλλά και τις soul-dance- trip hop- drum & bass- garage- broken beat επιρροές του θα ακούσεις. [...]
