Label Profile: Young Turks The XL Recordings offshoot Young Turks has been a mainstay in the UK (funnily enough, they're not Turkish) music biz for almost a decade, consistently putting out seminal releases and championing the careers of contemporary icons across a spray of genres. Young Turks was born as an imprint in 2006, masterminded by a then teenage Caius Pawson, in 2006. Pawson and a couple of friends started in the industry promoting gigs and club nights across various London hotspots - the whole endeavour snowballed until one fateful night at the abandoned [...]

…And Does This Nokia Commercial Rip Off The xx?

…And Does This Nokia Commercial Rip Off The xx? The last time out, we had a rip-off that tread into a bit of a gray area thanks to a key change, but this recent Nokia ad is way more of an open-and-shut case. This is totally the same song. "VCR" by the the xx. I hope they have the best lawyers in indie rock. Read More...

This Nokia Commercial Rips Off The xx

The xx - VCR
Most Indian commercials directed towards young, upwardly mobile, urban kids (SEC AB, 15-24, look mom, that MBA) these days have pretty much the same vanilla, Nikhil D'Souza , acoustic-twee soundscape. Vodafone and its seemingly bottomless talent pool of breathy singers have forever transformed jingles to almost-song-y indie pop clips. The result is that almost every commercial that features young people doing happy, summer-y, green things is now soundtracked by an acoustic track inspired by whiney singer-songwriters like Damien Rice and Jose Gonzalez. This Nokia commercial, pimping an instant messaging [...]

Friends to the rescue!

The Black Keys - She's Long Gone
A few weeks ago I was feeling pretty bored with some of the music around at the moment, so sent out an appeal to some friends (including JAL) to recommend me some albums. Following a mini-shopping spree on Amazon, I thought I'd share three of the best with you: XX- The XX What's that about not judging a book by the cover? When I heard the band's name and saw the black cover, I presumed some kind of My Chemical Romance spawn, but couldn't [...]

It’s Too Bright to Go Outside…

The xx - VCR
Thank you Saint Patrick, patron saint of wicked hangovers! We have been sitting around all day doing nothing. So enjoy a few of the videos we stumbled across. First up we have Hot Chip's new video for "I Feel Better". It's really a winner. Next up we have the video for the Erykah Badu and Lil Wayne collaboration "Jump in the Air (Stay There)". It's quite trippy, so if you're still nauseous, be careful. [...]

The xx: Gothic Architects

The xx: Gothic Architects Story by Adam Daniels Photo by Aliya Naumoff The xx do not work on paper. You try selling four pasty British kids dressed in all black as the new faces of smooth R&B. In fact, singer Oliver Sim was once within earshot of someone forced with the challenge of describing his group to a colleague. This is what he overheard. "I don't really know how to describe them," the stranger said. "Have you ever seen South Park? You know the goth kids in that? Kind of like that but with an R&B twist." [...]
