Le tout dernier single des Wu-tang clan tout chaud ! Bonne journée à tous.

Ancient Mariner | In Solitude Back at the start of April we introduced you to Ancient Mariner , the solo project of Gabriel Jorgensen. In Solitude , the lead track from his forthcoming EP, simply stopped us in our tracks. Beautifully hushed, densely orchestrated and possessing the kind of rich craft that made his contemporaries such as Andrew Bird and St Vincent so greatly loved, it's no surprise that it attracted recognition from across the globe. Ahead of the EP's release next month, we've teamed up with All [...]

Canadian saxophonist Colin Stetson delivers another breathtaking performance for La Blogotheque, featuring two songs from his latest full-length album, New History Warfare Vol. 3: To See More Light . Check a review for the album below:

This is my second full length interview with Keeping Cars ' frontman, Grahm Bailey. We talked the Bloomington, IN music scene, their recent shows and tour, music as an outlet, and Grahm even reveals to me first, some exclusive info about the band. Keeping Cars is Grahm Bailey, Brock Eveland and Zak Stoldt. Live snippets: 0:00 Breakdown - Keeping Cars 1:26 Midnight City (Keeping Cars cover) - M83

"I started Ancient Mariner by throwing away everything I had done up to that point, and spent a time without listening to, writing, or playing music. In Solitude was written from an evening during that time when every terrible thing inside of me was revealed, and set before me." The title-track from his forthcoming debut EP, In Solitude is something of a statement of intent from Gabriel Jorgensen; albeit a beautifully hushed and meditative one. Inspired by the music of St. Vincent and Andrew Bird , this [...]

I sat down with Pretty Boy Freud 's frontman Stefan for a short interview. PBF kind of exploded onto the  Bloomington, IN music scene in the tail end of 2012  and beginning of 2013. Check out my vid as Stefan talks the band's origins, the B-town music scene and the who the prettiest boy in Pretty Boy Freud is.

We've always asked bands to keep SXSW photo diaries for us in the past, but this year we thought we would mix things up and ask our Brooklyn bb's at Ilium Media to show us around Austin. I.M is is a Brooklyn-based music public relations agency owned by Scott Pollack & Amelia Trask, and here's what they got up to... SXSW Photo Diary ; Ilium Media Step 1: Pick up those wrist bands, girl; * [...]

Welcome behind the doors of the Maison Kitsuné Tokyo store and Café Kitsuné! As you can see on pictures below, the shipyard has disappeared to give way to a twisted architecture, where marble, bamboo, mosaic, fusumas, gilding and tatamis are matching tastefully. It's nearly as we could smell the cedar of the geometric parquet and Omotesando coffee! [...]

They say the third time's the charm, and this has to be one of our best Rolling in the Deep  episodes yet. Our latest installment features classics weaved together with some newer jams. As usual, Jackson and I keep it ever so deep, dark, and soulful. Enjoy: With such an old school groove you wouldn't expect this song to be a newly released jam, but hey, we're not complaining. Everyone knows I'm sucker for old school disco edits, so when I heard this disco jam from Sound Stream , I had to [...]

As promised, the second serie of our Tokyo stores opening work-in-progress photos! Step by step, the construction of both Maison Kitsuné Tokyo and Café Kitsuné goes well and is now at an advanced stage! Take a look at some pictures of our men at work! In the photographs below, you'll also discover in preview the atypical geometric [...]

"When I was a teenager the wreckage of a sailboat washed up on the shore of Agate Beach. The remains of the vessel weren't removed for several days. I walked down with my father to peer inside the boat cabin. Maps, coffee cups and clothing were strewn around inside. I remember looking only briefly, wilted by the feeling that I was violating some remnant of this man's presence by witnessing the evidence of its failure. Later I read a story about him in the paper. It was impossible to know what had happened. [...]

Balearia , as far as the genre may be termed, has itself this year been employed rather unreservedly, whether that be in the process of deƒining, describing, or indeed scribing. Slathered over most electronically infused tracks that sound in some way Mediterranean though consequently coming to signify something of an ambiguous epithet of exponentially decaying meaning, it's one we've indubitably come to abuse across 2012. Whether or not that has anything to do with the meteoric rise of John Talabot , well, that's fairly inconclusive. What we can categorically avow, however, is that few, to no one has employed [...]

Netherfriends: Middle America – Netherfriends, the one man band also known as Shawn Rosenblatt, recently achieved his goal of writing and recording a song and performing in all 50 states. Middle America is the first release from his travels. Each song is named for a city and state, and each of the twelve songs on this album contains a sense of adventure and discovery in and of itself. This undertaking was so monumental and just plain cool; the record will make you want to take a road trip [...]

Aquí está la primera están las dos, enjoy. ♩ John Talabot - Mai Mes ♩ John Talabot - Tragedical

This has got to be my favorite installment of Fanfare to date.  'Bong the Box Unison Alive'?  Well played Meynard Macol, well played.  That track alone makes the whole mixworth listening to.  But then, almost immediately after, 'Silenced by Mr. Brightside'? What a weird, insanely good mix, Hardwell.  I keep trying to get mad at [...]

I saw these guys at their very own BrownTown Festival in Indiana last summer and they blew my mind. They are 5 guys from Chesterton,Indiana who cover an array of genres: rock, funk, country, R&B, blues and jazz.  I just checked them out at New Buffalo Park on July 25, for some good clean family fun. Check out my video of them here.

Markus Mehr 's magnificent new album On has just received another round of glowing reviews, with plaudits from Luna Kafe , Fluid Radio , Cyclic Defrost and Delusions of Adequacy . Visit Markus Mehr's reviews section to read these reviews and more. Markus's three albums to date - On , In and Lava - are all available in CD and mp3 format from the Hidden Shoal Store , [...]

Excerpt: "German-born Mehr is an ambient architect not afraid to spell out both his ideas and his visualizations onto a larger-scale than most ambient artists of a similar field... this track deserves far more than just financial credit, it deserves some vocal credit too. 'Komo', spanning a total of 26-minutes is a slow-burner etheral admiration of both progression and placement. Slowly creeping up from the silent confines of its initial build-up, the track unveils itself - a sweeping of droned violins and string arrangements alike sweep across in a repetition that is both soothing yet intriguingly unsettling. The source of [...]
