If you ask me the psychedelic, art and glam rock movements contributed to many aspects of music that people don’t really recognize. Musically these guys pushed and explored without boundaries which pissed off a lot of people but ultimately led to some amazing discoveries. However, I think the my favorite contribution from these movements was [...]

So I’m doing my usual rounds on the internet and start checking up on Neon Gold records, the label responsible for Passion Pit, Marina & the Diamonds, Ellie Goulding, The Sound of Arrows and most recently Penguin Prison. I was familiar with all but the last so I did a little research and ran into [...]

Once again I have to take a moment to recognize some amazing production. This time I have to give it up to Bloodshy & Avant aka producers of Miike Snow, many Britney Spears and Madonna to name a few. The new sound they’ve cooked up for Miike Snow is really impressive. The synth and sample [...]

I’ve listened to a lot of music in my day but when it’s all said and done I still come back to Michael Jackson’s Thriller as my favorite album of all time. The reasons are endless but it’s mainly because of the vibe and energy Quincy Jones was able to capture in those records. The [...]
