Miles Brown Returns With New Album ‘The Gateway’; Listen To Haunting “Shudder Speed”

I first heard Miles Brown in his band The Night Terrors. The Australian electronic auteur is a monster of a musican, making hauntingly Gothic music from early 80s electro rhythms, synths, and a virtuosic mastering of the theremin. Albums like Back To Zero, Spiral Vortex, and Pavor Nocturnus solidified The Night Terrors’ place in space/prog/Goth […]

Power In Numbers : Listen To FloStorm’s “The Message 2020”

Photo by Corey Beck On May 29th and 30th, 2020 peaceful protests in Fort Wayne, Indiana in honor of the murdered George Floyd were corrupted by city police. Without provocation(and with the blessing of Fort Wayne city mayor Tom Henry) the FWPD shot tear gas canisters into crowds of non-violent protesters(with one protester losing his […]

Flatliner Drops Evocative “The Light Behind Your Eyes”

I do dig dance music, but there needs to be a human core under the techno grooves and vocoder narratives. When it’s strictly there to give you a beat to shake what the Lord gave ya I find it too empty to care about. There needs to be emotional intent. It’s like those trunk rattler […]

Zombi Unleash “Earthscraper”; Watch Video

Zombi have released another new single from their upcoming new long player 2020. This time it’s the riff monster “Earthscraper”, which is track two from the album. Where “Breakthrough & Conquer” sounded like Moore and Paterra going full 80s action sequence, “Earthscaper” switches gears entirely. It’s a slow-churning, methodical grind of drums, bass, synth, and […]

Where’d All The Time Go? : Revisiting Dr. Dog’s ‘Shame, Shame’

Occasionally I feel like I’m doing a pretty good job parenting. I mean, my kids have all turned out to be polite, kind, and thoughtful young adults so I know I didn’t completely screw them up. But as a parent you’re in a constant state of self-judgement and self-diagnosis, wondering if that one time when […]

Portals : A Kosmiche Journey through Outer Worlds and Inner Space

Your eyes close and you float off. Somewhere dark but comforting. A strange glow surrounds, keeping you from disappearing into the abyss of space. Or time. Or both. Buzzes and blips of analog origin keep you company on this journey of self-exploration. A journey that feels deep, meaningful, and significant to finding the answers we […]

Glitching

It’s been a couple rough days. I’ve been feeling the weight of the world pretty intensely. Anxiety has been hanging over me like a dark cloud, not giving me much space in my brain to think about music. It seems like every time I get online to get an update on the current militant state […]

Billow Observatory’s “Wash Away The Dust”

I’ve really been struggling with everything I’ve seen and read the last few days. The country has gone from shaky ground to deep, dark chasms opening up everywhere in every major city across the US. Not between citizens, as we’ve shown some major heart and love for one another as a whole. But the powers […]

Killer Mike For President

My good friend Stephen, aka Sankofa, wrote, recorded, mixed, and mastered this amazing track with some help from EDS and Burnt Bakarak yesterday and dropped it this morning. Sankofa is one hell of an MC and thinker living in the Midwest with me. His tracks are thoughtful and provocative, while the beats are old school […]

Worry Wart

I’ve always been a worrier. From the time I was a little kid I would dwell on the worst. If my parents went out for the evening and left my brother and I at home I’d start waiting behind the curtain over the picture window in the living room if they weren’t home by 9pm. […]
