WHITE MAGIC / CASS MCCOMBS 7-INCH

February 18th, 2013 · 1 Comment

Brooklyn-based record label and art collective Famous Class’s latest split 7-inch features Cass McCombs and White Magic. Cass’s tune delivers a proper dose of McCombsian brooding and the piano on White Magic’s contribution is sort of upbeat, almost as if White Magic wrote the theme song for Charlie Brown on the moon. LIKE! TRACKLIST Cass [...]

February 12th, 2013 · No Comments

DaM-FunK re-freaks Toro Y Moi‘s “Say That.” Giving this a good listen, we venture to believe that to “re-freak” something means to strip it of its clothing and make it dance. —Daiana Feuer

ZIG ZAG WANDERER: THEE SPACE KRISHNA, 15 YEARS OF SMELL, FMLY FEST ’12, ECHO COUNTRY BARN DANCE

January 24th, 2013 · No Comments

The cool, the dorky, the unsmiling, the spastic, the silent, the pimpled and the suave all rocked out with as much self-consciousness as preschoolers. No one took their pants off, yet the rafters knocked.

VIDEO: PARADISE “PSYCHIC RETURNS”

November 21st, 2012 · No Comments

It is quite swooping. Not to be confused with sweeping, this is more swooping. (Roll your head in a bit of a circle when you say the word.) This gal’s got a full length record just waiting for the right someone to put it out. And someone else should put out the piano version. For [...]

FIONA APPLE CANCELS TOUR BECAUSE JANET IS DYING

November 20th, 2012 · 2 Comments

Janet is her dog and she surely deserves the four page handwritten letter that Apple posted on Facebook. I understand. Fiona, would Janet like to come playdate with Future (my furry best friend) and we can talk about making out with our dogs, and how it’s not really making out, it’s more like face wash—sometimes [...]

They sit around on stage like kids in a sandbox, surrounded by toys and instruments and pedals and cables and things they barely understand, and they serenade you with playmusic like this is the first time they’re trying it themselves.
