R Kelly Is My Homie
I’m still baffled that Yours Truly was given the opportunity to interview R. Kelly a few months ago. Still diggin’ his new single, “Echo,” and, like I said before, homie’s crazy. And I dig that about him! But, what’s really crazy is that he’s become my boy. He gave me a [...]

All The Dead Girls Dance
It’s guys like Brad Oberhofer that James Murphy was singing about in I’m Losing My Edge. “The kids are coming up from behind,” says Murphy. At just 22, Oberhofer’s creating at a level far beyond his years, but he’s no prodigy, he doesn’t have to be. It’s his effortless blend of scream-sung lyrics, [...]

Everything Will Be Alright
This track by Philly’s Golden Ages blasts off like Apollo from the get-go, setting the pace for what seems to be a hardcore, pulsating dance jam. But in the midst of chaotic flashes of seizure-inducing sound, the most intimate melody –a twinkling xylophonic tone– flutters in like a butterfly gliding through the eye of [...]

Arcade Sound LTD loves you in 2010
I’ve mentioned Manimal Vinyl and warned of their plans to inundate you with incredible music this year. But they’re not the only ones looking to grab you by the eardrums and squeeze. Knoxville, Tennessee’s Arcade Sound LTD–home to Memoryhouse, whom we told you about–is equally itchy to get inside your aural cavity.
Take Boston’s Magic Man, [...]

I Wish I Knew How To Dress Well
If I knew how to dress well in middle school, this would have been me at the dance. Which boy would I have been? Well, I would have been both, for two times the ass! If I knew how to dress well, I’d have been on the ladies like Barry White on a ham-scented [...]

Movies To My Ears
Califone came through SF to play the soundtrack to “All My Friends Are Funeral Singers,” a new film by front man Tim Rutili. The band seemed a little on edge –not so much nervous, but genuinely excited– and when asked what the buzz was all about, Tim revealed that his film was just accepted into indie cinema mecca, Sundance. Isn’t [...]

Dear Four Tet,
It feels like forever since we last spoke. We used to go everywhere together. But, honestly, things haven’t been the same since Rounds. There were some good times…like when you remixed Explosions in the Sky, but for the most part, it felt like I’d lost you. But, with this new album, There is Love [...]

Manimal Vinyl loves you in 2010
Prepare to be showered with Manimal Vinyl love this year. Their forthcoming releases will make 2010 the label’s best year yet – and maybe yours too. Sister Crayon’s “Here We Never Die” is a gorgeous lamentation, evocative of those moments when Portishead’s dark, minimal sounds somehow became lustrous, like the moonlit sea. [...]
