Wobble Wednesday, Kinda

Mar 2, 2011, 7:30pm earmilk.com

Today we're taking a bit of a departure from the typical straight-dubstep tunes regularly featured here. While all of these tunes definitely exude elements common in dubstep, we're venturing a bit into nearby territory like dancehall, reggae, rap, and classic rock. Not that rap and classic rock have much to do with dubstep, but, you know, f*** it. Take a listen and lemme know what you think on Twitter: >>> @Crimestein Peas and dub.

State of the T-Sides Nation: 2011

Mar 2, 2011, 3:21pm T-Sides

I've struggled for about a year now over what to do with T-Sides. I started T-Sides at a time when music writing and journalism were changing. Not to say that they aren't still changing, or aren't always changing, but my decade or so pursuing a journalism career has been stretched across a serious shift in journalism. We probably should've expected the internet to be a bigger game changer, but I clearly wasn't the only one who just kind of didn't consider it. When I studied up for my BA in Print Journalism, that first word says it all [...]

[Introducing] – Hanni El Khatib

Mar 1, 2011, 9:00am Listen Before You Buy

Arguably one of music's greatest eras, the 502s and 602s changed the face of music forever. Without people ranging from Elvis Presley to Little Richard , Bob Dylan to The Beatles , we probably wouldn't be listening to some of the bands and music we take for granted today. One man who grew up obsessed by the pop culture of this era was Hanni El Khatib. The son of Palestinian and Filipino immigrants (and the first American in his family), Hanni El Khatib grew up in San Francisco and was influenced by these kinds [...]

LennonNYC documentary - Watch at PBS

Nov 23, 2010, 1:05pm Waved Rumor

Last night, in between having to make some time w/visiting relatives, I caught most of the PBS premiere of "LENNONYC" the new John Lennon documentary. It's a candid look at the former Beatle trying to make his way in New York City in the late 60s and early 70s as a peace activist and musician with empathies to the Hippie-Yippie movement, and his struggles to be just 'a normal guy.' The documentary has great 'bootleg' studio banter mixed in with images and talking heads from the times and current day as well. It chronicles Lennon's anti-war [...]

The song she was referring to is the Beatles classic 'Across the Universe,' which she sang with the accompaniment of a backing band and her laptop -- the latter of which she used to sneak in some warbled-yet-faint electronic [...]

20 Great Rock Codas: All's Well That Ends Well

Aug 18, 2010, 10:15am Spinner.com

Filed under: The Hit List By definition, a coda, or end piece, concludes a song with an idea that does not repeat an earlier one. A good coda can complement or create contrast; it can be subtle or overt; it can build gradually or start abruptly. And, let's face it, sometimes the end is the best part of the song. Here are 20 of rock's best [...]
