Lazy Sunday haze seeped through circumvallate pane. Showtime seemed everything but. Javelin and Jamaican Queens were scheduled to perform at eight. New Parish's hallowed walls ached, hollered for bodies to enter its hollow hall. As the magic hour eclipsed, the static domain was a far cry from the neighboring Fox Theater, teeming with tacky teens. [...] The post Show Review: Javelin and Jamaican Queens at The New Parish, 5/5/2013 appeared first on Spinning Platters .

The New Union: The song is a love story about failed relationships. We filmed this video in the middle of nowhere at 5am in the morning and it was the best experience ever!

Since the first time I listened to Led Zeppelin's Dazed and Confused I have been a huge fan of tracks prominently featuring drums. In many cases a drummer provides a nice back beat that helps the track along, but in the cases I'm featuring today, its a full assault on the drum kit. The kind of music that makes the listener want to make a fool of themselves by banging pencils on their desk. I may be guilty of this on occasion. Get ready for some killer drummers! Enjoy! The Ramblers - Nothin' but a [...]
Hi there, I'm Joachim Sailly, aka Joachim De Lux. I'm a French music producer studying music in London. I have been making music across several genres now (rock, trip hop, electro...) even though I'm only composing electronic music now. I have chosen this track because it defines perfectly my concept of the composition process that I'm interested in. I am trying to compose tracks which are; enjoyable musically and at the same time accessible, but also with an element of experimentation, looking for the ‘perfect’ balance. This track is also the one ending my EP, which [...]
While you were all too busy getting stoned on April 20th, MGMT was busy releasing their first single to the public in over 3 years. " Alien Days " is the name of the song, and it is a tasty little number, I must say. For those of you who gave up on MGMT after their first album, I forgive you because if you gave up then you were never really a fan anyways. It's like when people say, "I used to be a [...]
Vampire Weekend's latest album is a worth sequel to 20102s Contra, presenting songs that truly stand on the merits of their memorable writing and lush instrumentation. WATCH THE REVIEW
I get mass emails from PR people now. That is just something that comes with the territory. Usually they get your email after noticing you posted about another artist on their roster or that you like music similar to their artists or because they are desperate or you willingly sign up to their email list or you email them about something completely different and they just add you to their list (because why not?). Occasionally, they send over gems like this one from the San Francisco-based band The Dodos . "Confidence" from the duo's upcoming album [...]
New music from Lizzy Plapinger is always cause for celebration. This time she got together with synth master Max Hershenow alias MR. Together they are the new tumblr pop sensation of the year, MS MR. These two made music bloggers in all over the world go cross eyed and dribbly. We asked us, how could The post MS MR - Secondhand Rapture appeared first on Nothing But Hope And Passion - NBHAP - Music Magazine & more .
British newcomers LONDON GRAMMAR present a stylish and atmospheric music video for their latest fascinating single Wasting My Young Years. As you might know, NOTHING BUT HOPE AND PASSION already reported about their last two songs Hey Now and Metal & Dust - and we clearly liked what we heard here.

In hot anticipation of their forthcoming debut album Kodaline have released a beautiful acoustic version of their single Love Like This . Whilst the original burst with charm and charisma the Irish quartet have managed to flip the tables adding a whole new twist through its stripped back appeal. In as poignant manner as ever Kodaline manage to captivate and engage through this emotionally distraught rendition led by the solemnity of its lonesome piano. The heartwarming arrangement showcasing the bands ability in channelling their energy and affection as Stephen Garrigan's tender, pain-stricken vocals [...]
Ah, how we love Matthew Sawyer and his unique/oddball/visitor from Mars perspective on the world. His 2010 album How Ghosts Eat , with backing band The Ghosts remains one of our all time favourites. Good news then to discover that he is returning with a new album later this year on our favourite label Fire Records . We have a track from it below, the typically original Feeeeling . Given the plethora of wonderful releases Fire have already put out in 2013, they should be having their best year ever. [...]
![[video] Holy Ghost! – Dumb Disco Ideas](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4952221_lg.jpg)
We've been waiting for quite some time for a new Holy Ghost! track. Our fantasy has just been fulfilled yesterday with the release of 'Dumb Disco Ideas' by the delightful duo's from almighty DFA stable. It's brilliant, and still holds the almighty 4 measures gold algo-rhythm to its beats. You can still feel the aura of LCD Soundsystem in everything they do at DFA. For sure. Join them on tour with New Order this July, full tour details + Passport mp3s below... Click here to view the embedded video. [...]
Crystal Fighters are one of those bands that I can depend on to put out funky music that will likely get me going on a slow day. They proved me right with the release of another single, "LA Calling," from their album Cave Rave , in stores on 5/27. It's one of those upbeat songs that glorifies California in the same vein that Best Coast does in several of their songs, most notably " The Only Place ." I have yet to see Crystal Fighters live, but I imagine the performance that comes with this [...]
New york dance pop outfit Holy Ghost! has dropped a new single for their sophomore album, Dynamics , which will be on DFA Records later this year. Check a glowing review for their self-titled debut below:
London Grammar are often hailed as ‘the new xx’. I can imagine why people compare London Grammar with The xx , but there are as many differences as similarities. It’s probably the production that reminds people of The xx in a certain way; the guitar- and bass play show similarity, especially in Wasting My Young Years . One of the main differences though is the kind of classical sound London Grammar breathes. Actually,it is this classical and velvet sound that distinguish London Grammar from all the [...]
As the Manchester four-piece premiere the closing track from their forthcoming IV EP (Due May 20th via Dirty Hit Records) we're greeted by a much more sincere and sentimental side to the band. Whilst essentially a modern day love song detailing longing and loss, with Matthew Heal's breathy "I think I'm falling, I'm falling for you" forming the breathtakingly beautiful hook that runs throughout, the single provides a brilliant contrast to their previous music. Accompanied by long drawn out synths and a powerful driving focre through slow tempo percussion and their signature bouncy basslines fallingforyou plays [...]
I'm quickly realizing how fired up I am for this new Crystal Fighters album. They've done an incredible job slowly releasing tracks from Cave Rave every few weeks, and to be honest I've yet to be let down. I've had "You & I" and "Wave" on steady rotation for weeks ... Read More
