Barbarossa are streaming the trippy, black and white video for 'Butterfly Plague'. A mainstay on Scotland's Fence Records, Barbarossa is an outlet for James Mathé. The ever changing songwriter recently settled into a pop vein, and agreed to take part in the label's Chart Ruse series. New EP 'Butterfly Plague' is set to be released on June 12th, with Barbarossa shifting from acoustic introspective to exploring DIY electronics. Think wonky kids toys, broken drum machines and you'd be close... A four track EP, the title cut is a gloriously off kilter piece of home made psych. Director ...

Movement Festival has unveiled the first names on the line up for this year's event. Detroit is America's outlaw city.

dOP - Electronic Groove Podcast 279 "Welcome to the future; an age where machines make everything simple, a time when the human need not exercise skill or original thinking where a computer can do the job instead.

Rick Ross' overrated Rich Forever seemed to demand we take it seriously simply because it adroit gangsta rap and stuffed with starpower, and that just isn't enough. And when it comes to next big things, ScHoolboy Q's Habits & Contradictions , bogged down by alpha-male sex bullshit and a brassy embrace of the "cloud rap" aesthetic, is a step down from last year's direct, personality-filled Setbacks (even the Sacred Bones Records-like cover seems to be trying too hard). Typically, it was the feckless flow of free mixtapes, indie label releases, downloadable ...
