Steve Moore : Eye of Horus

Steve Moore is what I’d call a renaissance artist. He doesn’t stay in one lane and do some one trick pony show. He changes musical lanes like a master curator of sound, keeping with electronic music but within that realm morphs and shapes it to fit what mood strikes him. Power synth prog with Zombi […]

Of Montreal : Lady On The Cusp

Kevin Barnes has been making music as Of Montreal since 1998. Coming out of Georgia’s Elephant 6 collective, he began as a twee folk pop/rock band. But quickly Of Montreal became Barnes’ Funhouse where he could lean into any direction the Muse would take him. From the distinct album art(done by brother David) to the […]

Mandy, Indiana : I’ve Seen A Way

The UK experimental post-punk/dance/noise band Mandy, Indiana is the sound of sexy androids building more sexy androids in a cave that doubles as a rave. Robotic rhythms seem to emerge from grinding machines and screeching gears, while the vocals are less a voice singing than another rhythm instrument. It’s grinding, industrial noise for the dance […]

Lovelock : Burning Feeling

So you only need to browse a bit over on this site to know I’m a bit of a Steve Moore fanboy. Zombi, solo work, score work, and even his series of covers he did as Zombi and Friends over the course of 2020 and 2021 were nothing short of brilliant. It wasn’t until recently […]

Steve Moore and Bluetech : Liminal Migration

On the new collaborative LP Liminal Migration, Steve Moore and Bluetech get full-on cosmic using analog and modular synths. It’s a heady ode to both forward-thinking dance music and 50s sci fi in all it’s glory. Bluetech(Behind The Sky label head Evan Bluetech) and Steve Moore first collaborated last year on Behind The Sky’s compilation […]

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 […]

Lou Rebecca Readies Full-Length Debut ‘Restless’; Watch Video For “Break It Apart”

Listening to Lou Rebecca is like channeling some long lost radio dial from the early 80s. From her dizzying debut EP with Holodeck Records back in January of 2018 to what will be her full-length debut with the Austin record label in September of this year, her songs and sound are an infectious mix of […]

LCD Soundsystem : American Dream

There’s always been something about James Murphy that I’ve been drawn to. Ever since I bought LCD Soundsystem’s Sound Of Silver on a whim back in 2007 I’ve been enamored with the guy. Maybe because he’s close to my age. Maybe because he’s a middle-aged guy acting like a middle-aged guy. He’s not posturing the dude-isms […]

Slave To The Rewind : Thug Entrancer’s ‘Data Slave’

If you had told me a year ago I’d be getting all excited over a damn cassette tape I would’ve told you to jump back in that Delorean and get back to 1985. As it happens, I stand corrected. I mean, I’m not having some sort of cassette tape renaissance or anything. Sure, I’ve found […]

Tame Impala : Currents

Okay, so I’ve listened to Tame Impala’s excellent new album Currents several times now. Like everyday, twice a day, since last Friday. I can say very confidently that it’s a masterpiece. Kevin Parker has finally decided he no longer has to make albums that sound like they’re being performed by a crusty crew of long-haired, […]
