Yesterday Google paid tribute to Robert Moog by placing an interactive Moog on their homepage. The internet then went a bit crazy over it, and rightfully so as it was a great idea. The killer aspect to it was that you could layer and record on it, which led to this rather awesome cover of Daft Punk's 'Aerodynamic' by Brett Domino. Enjoy.

Jonah Bromwich dreams of electric Meek. Between the Killer Mike and Ab-Soul albums, I’ve been on black radical sabbatical, but I’m returning to the mainstream for a moment — a shift from fiery personalities/righteous anger/interesting albums to the distinctly un-radical new mixtape of Messr. Meekus Mill. Dreamchasers 2 isn’t half bad. Whenever Mill is spotted… Continue reading »

Plateselskapet 1988 Tindrum was a obscure Norwegian melodic hard rock act that was active during the late part of the eighties. The band was formed when drummer Morton "Diesel" Dahl decided in October of 1987 that, after three albums with the band, it was time to move on from TNT. Along with a female vocalist by the name of Tove the band was rounded out by bassist Sid Ringsby (who would later play in with TNT himself on the album "All The Way To The Sun") and guitarist Trond Ojen. "Drums Of War" was the group's debut album and ...

The new album by Electric Guest is being produced by Danger Mouse. That is the hook that the PR companies are working on, and probably the overriding thing that you will hear in passing about the record and/or band. The reason for this is because essentially Electric Guest are complete newcomers to the music scene and with such a highly regarded producer and musician championing their music, it certainly helps the cause. Upon listening to Mondo it is immediately noticeable why the aforementioned mouse has jumped on board with the project. The songs are melodic and catchy numbers, generally ...

Truly [...]
