The summer concert season is upon us and the Hidden Track staff knows that it’s virtually impossible for us to afford every show we want to hit, and still be able to pay our insanely expensive New York City rents. Luckily for us, there are a plethora of fantastic free concerts throughout the summer that don’t cost a dime. We decided to weed through all the listings and present to you our 5th Annual NYC Free Summer Concert Picks. Let’s take a look… HT Recommends: Laura Marling / Michael Kiwanuka / Willy Mason Where: Celebrate Brooklyn! – Prospect Park Bandshell ...

SBTRKT is back in the studio and sharing new tracks! “Gamelena” is a little bit of a deconstruction — more of a meandering electronic track than anything particularly tangible. Frankly, not 100% sure what to make of this track. It’s definitely nice to listen to, but given that I’d rank his collaboration with Little Dragon among one of the best songs this decade…I’ve got my expectations really high. ------------------------ 1.

As genre names go, EDM is about as vague as "indie." While it's useful shorthand for the post-millennial rave movement's superstar DJs and producers, it doesn't give much insight into the stylistic diversity of the music. Its artists may share an affinity for dramatic, wind-up builds and earthquaking drops, but there's still a world of difference between  Skrillex 's glitched-out mayhem, Diplo 's baile-funk bangers, and  David Guetta 's big-tent trance. Then there's Swedish producer Avicii , who essentially makes straight-up house music with an ear for the kind of universal, candy-coated pop melodies that his ...

There's something about the combination of liquor and live music that just seems to make sense. Fortunately, several of the beverage manufacturers have figured this out for themselves and we've got the Heineken Red Star Access, the Budweiser sponsored Made...

Serbia's most illustrious music festival is less than two months away. It takes place on a huge fortress on the Danube, and began life as a student protest against Milosevic's regime, I have just learnt. Amazing, amazing, amazing. In terms of 'bass music', as a dodgy definition of a genre (this site was named before all that thankfully), the festival's 'Happy Novi Sad' stage is all killer, apparently picked from just two of the scene's leading labels; it features Space Dimension Controller,  Lone,  Pariah, Teengirl Fantasy, and The Chain, George FitzGerald, Locked Groove, and Sigha. Also ...

Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Sounds like: Little Dragon, Twin Sister, Mesita Song: Superhumanoids - Too Young For Love [download here ] What's so good? L.A.’s Superhumanoids are nasty. Fearlessly nasty. And I love it. This group is just finishing up their tour with Balam Acab & Active Child and I wouldn’t be surprised if their next tour consisted of them headlining. It doesn’t sound like they’ll be warming the bench for much longer. Their single “Too Young For Love” opens with a simple synth which is immediately followed by a completely saturated array of electronic instruments — deep bass, drum machine and of course silky female vocals to top it off. The song bounces from a smooth R&B; rhythm to a fast-paced dance beat, and while the contrast is obvious, either tempo is bound to get you moving. This song is a whirlwind of effects and atmospheric tones; it’ll surely get your mind and body racing. Superhumanoids are currently on a cross-country tour. If they’re coming to a city ...

Filed under: Exclusive , RPM , New Music Mads Perch London house producer Maya Jane Coles began DJing at the age of 17, before she was old enough to enter a night club. The 24-year-old's rise to prominence has been impressive to watch, from providing remixes for everyone from Little Dragon and house legend MK, to being hailed as "breakthrough DJ of 2011" by Pete Tong, and contributing to institutions like BBC's Essential Mix and the respected DJ-Kicks series , which was released in April. Coles took time out from working on her forthcoming debut LP to put together a pretty ...
