Photograph of a Supernova Remnant SN 1006 by NASA, ESA, and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) “Epic Fail” comes from Birds & Batteries‘ recent Unfold EP, which finds the band in dark synth pop mode (stream it in full below). The five-song set was actually composed at the same time as the group’s upcoming full [...]

If only every city had a Hopscotch. Raleigh, NC’s big-big music festival has gotten even bigger this year, with the addition of historical (and possibly haunted!!!) sounding venues like the Long View Center, Memorial Auditorium and the Contemporary Art Museum to its 15 venues strong festival map. There are 175 artists playing this thing, people, with everyone from the likes of Class Actress and Baroness to Liars and Wagner">Mirel Wagner. This year is only Hopscotch’s third go-around, and already they’ve got swell headliners like Built to Spill, The Roots, and The Jesus and Mary Chain keyed ...

If you’re a regular reader of TMT (subscribe now: $11.99 for one year, $18.99 for thirty), you know we get all wide-eyed about drummer/noise-maker/young cricketer Chris Corsano . Not only has he collaborated with many of our favorite artists — Oren Ambarchi, C. Spencer Yeh, Jim O’Rourke, Paul Flaherty, Evan Parker, Greg Kelley, Michael Flower, Björk, etc. — but he’s also released some stunning solo albums, like The Young Cricketer , Blood Pressure , and Another Dull Dawn , all of which should be, like, sold at Virgin megastores and archived by the Library of Congress or something. So ...

To kick off both FriFri der 13th and his Hubble tour, Ben Greenberg provides you with exit music, “Hubble Escape.” Nothing says getting the fuck out of New York than the movie Escape from New York accompanied by a meandering soundtrack. And this is Hubble I’m writing about here; technology-gaping, delay-echo absorbed, an infinity of notes: SHREDDER. Maybe not shred in terms of let’s fucking shred , but in terms of a human being who transcends sound by gutting craft. Witness it above, and check out Hubble’s dates at Northern Spy . • Hubble Homepage: http://missionhubble.blogspot.com • Northern ...

Ben Greenberg must be the kind of person who can't sit still for too long, he has a lot going on. A longstanding member of the Zs, a former member of the now-disbanded Pygmy Shrews, and a new member of The Men, he also has a solo project known as Hubble. Hubble recently released, Hubble Drums, on North Spy records, made friends with NASA (read about it here), and is embarking on a tour in late April. On Friday, April 13, Greenberg will be in Chicago for the cities' Internation...

With an explosion on 23 March that levelled the top of Las Campanas mountain in Chile, construction began on the $700m (£439m) Giant Magellan Telescope, which will be one of the world’s largest astronomical observatories. When the telescope is completed around 2019, its seven-mirror array, which spans 25m, will peer deep into space with 10 times the power of the  Hubble Space Telescope .

We continue our live stream series of the Infinite Limbs curation of late Monday nights at Le Poisson Rouge. If you missed last week's live stream, you missed 1) the epic lighting that Le Poisson Rouge has available for bands who usually play under one overheating flood, and which totally complements the mood; 2) Justin Frye of PC Worship smashing one of his guitars during the first song, then singing from the soundbooth, and then singing in a lounging position on the floor while the entire ...

Barcelona-based electronic pop trio Lasers first emerged back in 2010 with their self-titled EP on Hubble Sound, and two years on this debut album ‘Juno’ sees them working in the studio with El Guincho engineer Marco Morgione to craft an eight-song collection that leans distinctly towards hypnotically swirling layers of melodic texture. Rather than straight-ahead [...] Lasers – Juno (Irregular) is a post from: Cyclic Defrost Magazine .

NNA Tapes earned our good favor long before Co La, Laurel Halo and Hubble. It's a trusted label in our circle. We're going to listen to this Ryan Power dude if NNA Tapes is handling the pressing and they are. The uneasiness comes from the musicians vocally backing Ryan Power - particularly Ben Greenberg of Hubble (and producer of every Brooklyn-based album in the past four months), Nat Baldwin of Dirty Projectors and Daniel Lopatin of Oneohtrix Point Never. Why are we skeptical, you ask...
