Bloc Rockin’ Beats
August 25, 2008 – 10:05 am
Late last week British Post-Punk revivalists Bloc Party pulled a Gnarls Barkley-meets-Radiohead, releasing their latest LP ahead of any sort of industry-approved schedule and with little fanfare via their website. You could pre-order a physical copy, which will ship at the end of October, plus a digital download that would be available immediately, for […]

Mixtapes I Don’t Hate: DLake, Diplo & Santogold and KiD CuDi
July 28, 2008 – 11:00 am
When I started slipping posts about mixtapes into my blog repertoire last year I felt it necessary to point out that I had been turned off by the whole mixtape subculture for a number of years. Regardless of my reasons (and if you really want to know what they were, you can go back […]

For Losers as Well as Super Stars
July 9, 2008 – 10:59 am
I spend so much of my time digging through obscurities that I often don’t hear about what’s going on well-established artists until the last minute. My underground fetish withstanding, this may have something to do with general skepticism of the things people in the entertainment industry say about their future products. I guess […]

Yesterday’s Title Quoted “The God,” But Today’s Post Is About a “Blue God”
June 5, 2008 – 10:34 am

What’s More Expensive, a Laser, Life, a Time Machine, Or a Panda?
May 19, 2008 – 10:52 am
The term “throwback Rap” has become something of a byword, associated with brightly-colored hipster fashion, tight pants, retro-futuristic graphic tees and a couple of oft-profiled rappers fond of drum-machine beats and synthesizers. Being a fan of 808 kicks and stuttery sampled vocal hooks myself I really don’t have any sort of beef with that. […]
