For those unfamiliar with my Icelandic music fetish, experimental-classical music or that one song he did on The Hunger Games soundtrack,  Ólafur Arnalds is a former hardcore drummer gone neo-classical producer who's been quietly acquiring representation as one of the most talented and ethereal musicians from Iceland. His stylistic range is one thing, but his undeniably hypnotic and captivating instrumental work functions on a thematic level so high, it feels as if it couldn't possibly have come from human hands. Past records such as ...and they have escaped the weight [...]

Hip Hop from across the pond rarely gets any coverage in America, but tracks like MellorD's "Hunger Games" deserve to get some shine here too. The British emcee shows his lyrical dexterity over a bombastic instrumental by Bear Blu, who's a personal favorite for me when it comes to up-and-coming producers and a member of TheDREAMERS collective. Vibe to this one below and check out MellorD's Setting Standars EP here . Hunger Games Feat. Lou Sinergy by MellorD

Motifs in Cinema is a discourse across several film blogs, assessing the way in which various thematic elements have been used in the 2012 cinematic landscape. How does a common theme vary in use from a comedy to a drama? Are filmmakers working from a similar canvas when they assess the issue of death or the dynamics of revenge? Like most things, a film begins with an idea - Motifs in Cinema assesses how the use of a common theme across various films changes when utilised by different artists. Reflecting back on the cinematic landscape [...]

2012 was a good year for film.  I ended up seeing 126 releases, and I have to admit that the majority of them were far from terrible.  This, of course, made crafting a Top 10 fairly difficult, but I gave it my best shot.  Just a heads up, below the main section of this article you'll find some mini-lists.  Read on! 10) The Avengers I feel like some people are afraid to put this movie on their year-end list.  It's like the 1.5 billion dollars it made worldwide [...]

Adele was the undisputed queen of the album chart in 2011, and, so far, she's proving to be unstoppable this year as well. (Consider her baby-to-be 's diaper fund settled, then!) That said, while it may seem like it, the London songstress hasn't been the only one to reach the peak position on the Billboard Top 200 in 2012 so far. In looking over the roster of artists who've climbed to the top in the first half of the year, one thing is apparent: Age ain't nothing but a number. Musicians whose [...]

RR It’s funny how you feel like you know people just because you’ve seen them in a bunch of movies and perhaps read about them in some celebrity magazines  (not that I would look at those. Ok, only in the doctor’s office). But when I booked Elizabeth Banks to come on the Guest DJ Project , I assumed she would be super cool, smart and funny. Low and behold, she was actually all those things. And, on top of that, she made KCRW [...]

Southern spitter Tito Lopez releases his latest full-length work this week in the aptly-titled The Hunger Game . Lopez represents a breed of rapper that's just that - a rapper - he steps away from the bells and whistles and focuses on the craft. The Mississippi native's material may not blow anyone away through production, guest appearances, or profile, but the moment he lays down rhymes on track #2 you know you're listening to a pro. Download / stream below, and follow Lopez via twitter [...]

Some of you who enjoyed The Hunger Games may recognise Hypnotic Brass Ensemble providing the music to Caeser Flickerman. Yeah, uh. About that... I don't know much about The Hunger Games myself; there were just fanboys geeking out in the comments of the YouTube video of Hypnotic Brass Ensemble 's 'War'. This band deserves more than that. The Chicago octet have a rich musical legacy, and have been playing music since they were three. Combining classical brass instruments with soul and jazz licks and funky hip-hop beats, [...]
