Sexed-up, self-objectifying, emotionally disconnected haze-pop stars of the world unite! Sky Ferreira and Twin Shadow seem to have so much in common that they'd hate each other, but that's apparently not the case. Instead, Twin Shadow has remixed "Everything Is Embarrassing," Ferreira's suddenly omnipresent single, and turned it into, of all things, a hard-pounding Euro-club track. Listen to it below.

I've got my best albums of 2012 ready for Friday, but I have to be honest that I always enjoy putting together my best songs lists. You might not sit down and listen to your ten or twenty favorite albums at once, but you can relieve the year through single songs in a couple of hours. My best of ____ mixes (and those throwback one's made by Dan ) are some of my favorite mixes of all time. If you're not already making best of ____ mixes, you need to start. Today. The only rules? One song [...]
There's still a whole month left in the year, but we have a hunch INK are going to top the list of our favorite new artists of 2012. The London duo floored us - along with the folks over at the Guardian - with their debut track, "INK Goes On." The two have done it once again with a fantastic, indie pop rendition of Twin Shadow's "Five Seconds," which we are proud to premiere here on ATG. Stream it below or grab a free download of the cover in exchange for a like over [...]
"A refreshingly honest album that combines intelligent writing with addictive hooks..." Chad Valley | Young Hunger Hailing from picturesque city of Oxford, Hugo Manuel - better known as Chad Valley - is one of the leading proponents of the chillwave movement currently sweeping the music scene on both sides of the Atlantic. Cut from the same cloth as American artist Toro Y Moi, Manuel first set tongues wagging and ears twitching with the release of his self titled EP in June of this year. Not content to rest on his laurels, Manuel has collaborated [...]
We've already featured the latest single "The Night Was Young Enough" from Rush Midnight , the solo project of Brooklyn-born Russ Manning, and former bass player for Twin Shadow. Today we share with you his beautiful second single "Crush", off his upcoming debut solo EP "+13 on Cascine, which was produced by none other than Twin Shadow. As he says: "I wrote 'Crush' after returning from a month in Europe and a few nights in Sao Paolo about one year ago." says Manning. "Back in New York, springtime [...]
One watch through Solomon Grey's video for "Firechild" and you would think the band had an army of industry brass behind them. In reality, the UK/Australia duo - comprised of Tom Kingston and Joe Wilson - has been writing and operating without any financial backing for the past three years. Today is the outfit's first major outing onto the internet and in a mere matter of hours they have, at least to us, proven themselves a force to be reckoned with. Solomon Grey describe "Firechild" as a cross between TV on the Radio and Twin Shadow, a comparison that hits [...]
Official out next week (although we've have it on blast for the past couple), Chad Valley , aka Hugo Manuel's debut LP Young Hunger is now available to hear in full. continue reading >>
Hear "Losing You." Think it's a pretty good song. Ask who sings it. Find out it's someone named Solange . Listen to the song on repeat. Find out it's Beyonce's sister. Decide I will not get sucked into this and stop listening. Hear "Sleep In The Park." Realize Solange is infinitely cooler than her older sibling. Discover Twin Shadow has done a "remodel" of the song. Click play. Uncontrollably dance along until that one drop around 1:45. Head explodes. "Sleep In The Park", the B-side to Solange's single "Losing You," was already a bass-heavy, hand-clapping singalong of [...]
On Wednesday I had the chance to see Niki & The Dove and Twin Shadow at the Black Cat here in DC. Great show, as both bands put on a solid performance. Most of the show went as expected, but the track "Somebody" caught me by surprise. I had it heard it on NATD's new [...]

For all that weren't aware, today is Monday, and while generally that's not a necessarily a good thing (you know, back to school, work, etc) ever since MS MR announced how they were releasing their new EP, Candy Bar Creep Show , Mondays have gotten just a bit brighter. In case you're wondering what the hell I'm talking about, last week, when we brought you the stream of the first song from the four track EP, "Bones" , we also explained that every subsequent Monday they'd be [...]

Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars When you receive a record in the mail, and notice that there's just one man behind the project, sometimes you jump to inclusions, expecting the output to merely be the work of a man and his laptop. Fortunately for everyone, this is not the case with Deepak Mantena and his project Junk Culture . Sure, the new record, Wild Quiet , definitely uses some electronic flourishes, but the accompanying music makes it a stand out among many of its [...]
