I knew that today’s post had to feature a powerful female performer. I ran the gambit of genres and decades and ended up in the future. I know that sounds weird but I’m not trying to be poetic or anything haha In fact, “The Future” is the primary theme of Janelle Monáe’s music and she has built her notable career creating a fictional future filled with androids in love and android bounty hunters. It’s exciting, lovely, and so imaginative! Let’s step into Janelle Monáe’s world! Janelle Monáe’s early career is one that was ...

Flight Facilities ’s great single “With You”, has an even better video to go along with it. Animator Ben Drake spent 4 months making this comic book/anime treat for all to enjoy. Our main character, a down and out superhero, looks like a cross between Megaman and a Power Ranger. A forbidden love story unfolds before our eyes, and while it ultimately leads through a lot of destruction, the thrill of the chase is just too tempting too ignore. Seriously though, this is one of the best made videos of the year.  Buy the single . Flight Facilities - “With You ...

Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Song: 2 Chainz & Drake - No Lie [download here ] What's so good? So let’s cut to the chase: 2 Chainz & Drake’s “No Lie” obviously isn’t indie. But, we’re a music blog. So we’re going to post new music! In general, I’m a fan of Drake’s work — and in this case, it balances pretty well with 2 Chainz’s more aggressive style. As a South African, the only thing I’m not crazy about is the way he pronounces “apartheid”: the proper pronunciation is “apah-tate,” but 2 Chainz comes ...

You know those mates that you have that keep quiet for long periods of time and then come out with a one-liner that slays the room? That is Santigold , previously Santogold. The last we heard from the Amazonian-esque beauty was in 2009 when she released her debut album, Santogold . It was anthemic. It was different and it outshone all of the other indie, nu-wave fodder that filled episodes of Skins during that period of time. It was a sparkling debut and one feared that it could just be a quick fizzle in the pan but luckily for all of us ...
