The band -which consists of Kazu Makino and twin brothers Simone and Amedeo Pace – released their first album in 1995 and started out as a noise rock band. But as the years went on Blonde Redhead evolved […]

Jeremiah Chiu : In Electric Time

Back in June of this year electronic music composer, educator, and artist Jeremiah Chiu walked into the Vintage Synthesizer Museum in Highland Park, Los Angeles, and began to play. Well, program sequences into these rare and vintage synthesizers and create a kind of analog, circuital symphony. Chiu was the mad scientist bringing these machines to […]

Oneohtrix Point Never : Again

Daniel Lopatin has had quite the creative and artistic arc with his electronic project Oneohtrix Point Never. From the psychedelic beginnings of drone-heavy albums like Betrayed In The Octagon, Russian Mind, and Returnal; to experimenting with grander scopes on R Plus Seven, Garden of Delete, and his most recent record Magic Oneohtrix Point Never.

Wilco : Cousin

Wilco have quietly and casually slipped into elder statesmen mode, putting out decent records every couple of years. Jeff Tweedy and company have locked into, while not auto pilot, something akin to safety mode. Gently strummed songs with Tweedy’s now hushed and whispered delivery. The band’s cache of musical wizards(Nels Cline, Pat Sansone, John Stirratt, […]

Watch Ty Segall Eat A Bunch Of Eggs in “Eggman” Video

It took me a long time to warm up to Ty Segall. Years. Maybe a decade. Manipulator was when I came on board. That album, plus his interview with Marc Maron where he talked about skateboarding on acid. I thought, “You know, I think I might like this kid now.” Since then I’ve come to […]

Futuropaco : Fortezza di Vetro

The world of Futuropaco, the Italio psych musical project of multi-instrumentalist Justin Pinkerton(Golden Void/The Roots Of Orchis/glass parallels) is like the wind in your hair as you race a Vespa through the cobblestone streets of Northern Italy. Tight jazz drumming, fuzz guitars, and ethereal keys carry you along on a psychedelic slipstream. It’s a sophisticated, […]

Explosions In The Sky : End

Explosions in the Sky have long been one of the supreme purveyors of post rock, a genre of music that relies on mostly wordless exaltations through instrumentals. Sometimes the music is big, widescreen, and heavy with emotional intent. Sometimes the music is as quiet as a whisper, conveying the same emotional depths but through ambient […]
