Tonight our favorite fellas Arctic Monkeys made their live return with their first show of 2013 at the Ventura Theater, in Ventura, California. Their set was kicked off with a new song "Do I Wanna Know?" It's a live recording brought to us by my man Blake over at Arctic Monkeys US . It's sounding quite massive. A simple little riff that just builds and builds. It's great to hear some new Arctic Monkeys, especially when it sounds this good. Take a listen to "Do I Wanna Know?" below.

J. Cole appeared on  Late Night With Jimmy Fallon last night to perform "Power Trip," in support of his forthcoming album  Born Sinner , which will now release on June the 18th.  As always, The Roots were there to back the Roc Nation MC, giving the song even smoother riffs to make for an all-around great performance.

On an ethereal wisp sails the music of Cloud Boat , an elvish tribe hailing from the British Isles, whose sound is reminiscent of a cross between Bon Iver and James Blake. In anticipation of their album,  Book of Hours , the band has unleashed the double-sided single: "Youthern/Hammerspace". Listen to the electro-soul reworking of the side-A track, "Youthern" by the London producer, Flako and watch Cloud Boat's second live session at Trinity Church with a profoundly heart-felt performance of "Kowloon Bridge" below. Look out for  Book of Hours , Cloud Boat's first full-length album, out on May [...]

Capping off what's been a very eventful week for Kanye West , the man performed to an anxious and excited audience on the Saturday Night Live season finale last night - taking "Black Skinhead" and "New Slaves" to the stage.  The power-packed tracks were brought with dim stage lighting, a full band, and resonating imagery - setting an appropriate environment for the premiere of "Black Skinhead" and the follow up to the globally-project "New Slaves". View the two videos below and look forward to Kanye's full-length release of  Yeezus  [...]

Kanye West has been busy this week, releasing live projections on buildings as a way to premiere his new songs. He also announced that his album is titled Yeezus (yes, you read that correctly). Last night he closed out the season of SNL (Bill Hader's last show) with the performance of two new songs, "Black Skinhead" and "New Slaves" (the one he projected onto buildings). "Black Skinhead" starts out with a rapid fare pace, sounding something like a mix of Nine Inch Nails, Death Grips, and [...]

Ah, Kanye West.  How truly great it is to have you back.  And boy, do you make it seem like you've never left, after a relatively brief (3 years if you don't count WTT) hiatus. As you're presumably well aware, today is Thursday. Otherwise known as the day everyone loves to post #throwback photographs of themselves from when they were good looking once in their lifetime.  Well, quite frankly, we've grown entirely sick of this monotonous weekly tradition, and instead have created a safe place of refugee for you all to seek instead.  Introducing [...]

Fuzz is the new ultra-heavy proto-metal project of Ty Segall and Charles Moonheart. The word is that Fuzz will/has hit the studio this month to work on songs for their upcoming debut LP on In The Red, but "This Time I Got A Reason" and the b-side "Fuzz's Fourth Dream" have given us a gnarly taste of what is to come. Directed by Edgar Nelson Obrand (LEAF), the performance we have below was shot at Burgerama last month. Seeing Ty hold down the drums like that while Charlie melts faces is pretty inspiring to watch, I don't recommend missing out. We'll keep [...]

World renowned and Grammy-nominated Deutsche Grammophon recording artist Avi Avital recently linked up with B3SCI on the mean streets of Austin, TX to chat about his musical relationship with the mandolin and to play us a new song. We captured Avi doing what he does best with this unique and special performance at the Bungalow on Rainy St. during mid-day SXSW 2013. Avi really gets into it about half-way through, such an awesome moment. Check it out below... Avi Avital ( Facebook )

Vampire Weekend returned to SNL last night along with host Kristen Wiig. They performed "Diane Young" along with "Unbelievers." Catch both performances below. Diane Young: Unbelievers:

While minimal information is known about Kanye West's forthcoming album, slowly but surely the pieces are coming together.  First it was a select, elite group of individuals (like old pals Daft Punk) who assured us that the album was "very raw," then a subliminal tweet , to performance at the Met Gala. Last night in Poland, latest G.O.O.D. music signee-and reported contributor to West's forthcoming six solo album- Hudson Mohawke preview two unheard tracks, presumably off the untitled album.  Listen to the two tracks (featured above and below), or head to Team [...]
