A selection from the L.A. transplant’s new blog, Moby Los Angeles Architecture Blog : ok, this is a hidden gem. a moorish early 20th century quasi-castle, quasi-temple hidden in hollywood somewhere between beachwood canyon and the hollywood dell. i’ve said it before, but most cities are populated by remarkable architecture that’s pretty easy to find (chrysler building, st. peters, kremlin, big ben, etc). l.a is populated by about a million hidden gems, like this utterly odd and remarkable house. i found it once, i’m not sure i’d be able to find it again (kind ...

The Human League are so credible it’s incredible. In fact, they’re probably more highly regarded in 2011 than they were in 1981 when they released their landmark album Dare! They’re used to everyone from Madonna to Moby, Pet Shop Boys to Robbie Williams, citing them as an influence. Now the...

Clary, AFP Whether it was the guest appearances by LMFAO , M.I.A. or Cee Lo Green , the Roman-style grand entrance or her disappearing act to close, Madonna 's Super Bowl halftime show got plenty of reactions from people, including several musicians who took to Twitter to praise and sometimes vent.

NYC noise rock trio A Place To Bury Strangers Have added another layer of brick to their wall of sound. The Onwards To The Wall sidesteps the cliches of the genre and is dipping its toes more than before into pop like The Jesus and Mary Chain used to do. So Far Away is the prime example of this "new" direction, while a track like Drill It Up and the title track will live up to the expectations of longtime fans. ( A Place To Bury Strangers - So Far Away ) It is challenge to record noise without ending up with a ...

Last night Chicago-based sextet Umphrey’s McGee kicked off their first full tour of 2012 with not one but two performances. In addition to a full two-set show at First Avenue in Minneapolis, the band also played a show billed as “All Night Wrong” at the nearby, and tiny, 7th Street Entry. [via @JeffersonWaful ] Fans attending the All Night Wrong performance were given ballots in advance and told to pick six covers from a lengthy list. Here’s the covers from Umphrey’s vast repertoire that made the cut… Set: YYZ, Breathe (dub), Waiting Room, Billie Jean, Immigrant Song, Cocaine ...

James Murphy of the band LCD Soundsystem is to launch his own brand of coffee, but he's not the first musician to be lured by the beverage Should we be surprised that LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy is trading his beats for beans and planning to launch his own brand of coffee ? Not really – the surprise is that someone usually so ahead of the curve would have left it this long. After all, Will Oldham announced his own Bonny Billy Blend of coffee in January (overtones of "chocolate, leather and non-wacky tobaccy", apparently). And David Lynch, who released his ...

There’s a new record label in town, born of a sexxxy late night romp between the illustrious and ever-dreamy Mute Records and The Genre of Electronic Music.

Headed by Patrick O’Neill and distributed worldwide through S T Holdings, the label will focus on electronic acts. Before signing up with Mute and Liberation Technologies, label boss O’Neill worked at Honest Jon’s, the venerable West London record shop ...

Bustle In Your Hedgerow @ Brooklyn Bowl – January 27 Words : Samara Lentz Photos : Mitch Manzella Blue lights flood the stage to start the show. Marco Benevento begins hammering the melodic prelude to “No Quarter.” With a few more chords melting into recognition, the informed members of the crowd let out a “whoooo!” of approval. And then, an explosion of sound in perfect syncopation—it was Led Zeppelin like I have never heard it before. [All Photos by Mitch Manzella] I wasn’t the only one who saw Bustle in Your Hedgerow for the first time last Friday at Brooklyn Bowl. I ...

Laidback Luke can do no wrong. Add progressive house monoliths Arno Cost and Norman Doray into the mix and you have the incredible trifecta responsible for “Trilogy”. Last year was monumental for each member of the trio. Arno and Norman released some massive remixes for the likes of Martin Solveig, Moby, and David Guetta, while Laidback Luke dominated the Beatport charts for months with bangers [...]

Always a somewhat problematic predicament is the side-project: whether it arouses foreseeable, feasible tensions or indicates endemic issues with the collaborative creativity of the artist(s) involved, it's a term sullied by multitudinous howlers. Last year's pairing up of Lou Reed and Metallica provided an example as unequivocal as any  as to why sticking to the day job, however dirgy or dreary it may be, is an unadventurous direction that should sometimes be followed. It was largely regarded as the defecating on and defacing of not one but two illustrious legacies and the potential perils and jagged-toothed traps ...

Under the stage name Betty Black, she's readying her newest EP 'Bad Weather,' a dimly lit record of dance-floor mayhem and sexy sounds. Now you can get an exclusive listen of the album's title ...
