If Teen Daze is Max Fischer, chillwave is his Rushmore. Unlike contemporaries such as Toro Y Moi and Washed Out—who graduated from the pseudo-genre's lackadaisical backbeats and murky synths on the strength of their pop chops—the nameless Canadian producer seems happy to wallow in the world of hazy electro soundscapes.

Put on your dancing shoes and put this track on rotate! The Young Midnight remix of Sleep Party People’s “Heavy Burden” is super charged and ready to roll. This particular remix is the work of Twin Shadow’s former bassist, Russ Manning (aka Young Midnight). He has drenched “Heavy Burden” with spotty, ragged synths and beats, all deconstructed into a fast-paced dance number that’s sure to make you ...

Daughn Gibson All Hell [White Denim; 2012] by Elliott Sharp Rating: I was recently listening to All Hell , the debut album by Daughn Gibson, and queued up right after it in iTunes was Lil B’s The Basedprint 2 . As the last track of All Hell segued into the opening track of The Basedprint 2 , I thought it was the same damn album. That’s ’cause All Hell has a somewhat similar cloud-rap sound — without the rapping, of course, but the music’s something like a Clams Casino instrumental. But as soon as B’s voice kicked in a few ...

Walk us through the process you went through in the beginning of your career when you started recording in your parents house. Did you know what you were stumbling into?  Not really, no. I was about 18 or 19 years old and it’s always been a solo bedroom-recording thing. When I first started out it was a lot of hip hop instrumentals so if you go through the past few years or so I’ve been doing more of a pop style of music with the instrumental difference and traditional vocals and a chorus. I listen to a lot ...

El jóven productor de origen canadiense Teen Daze es, sin duda, uno de los nuevos integrantes del género dream pop y shoegaze, si partimos de referencias como M83, Washed Out, Beach House o Active Child. Su album debut, My Bedroom Floor de 2010, llamó la atención y ahora está próximo a lanzar su nueva producción [...]

Everyone's favorite dreamy summer-home-themed band Beach House has been taking a victory lap ever since they released their awesome fourth LP, Bloom. Watch them as they played their first single, "Myth" on Letterman last Friday. The addition of a live drummer onstage shows how much fun Beach House must be live, adding some more low end to Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally's washed out, platonic majesty. Check out "Myth," the remaining tour dates, and our exclusive concert video with Beach House

Très occupé / Very busy                          ——————————————————————————————-           A l’approche de la fin de l’année universitaire, nous sommes vraiment très occupés.

UNDERCOVER perpetuates its angry directive to “Fuck the Past, Fuck the Future” following earlier successes with the equally aggressive Leather Boot, Oxford Shoe and T-shirt. Quite certainly another product of creative designer Jun Takahashi’s imagination, this piece exhibits a utilitarian approach in echoing its impassioned outcry. Available in washed out military green and navy blue, [...] Read more at Hypebeast.com

The Color Wheel Dir. Alex Ross Perry [Cinema Conservancy; 2011] by Jeff Rovinelli Rating: Director Alex Ross Perry’s last film, Impolex , transposed the literary play of Pynchon’s novel Gravity’s Rainbow into an aesthetic that resembled a film made by a 14-year-old who was somehow endowed with the ability to operate a 16mm camera, to unexpectedly effective, if minor, ends. His most recent film, The Color Wheel , makes something of the opposite move, taking the markers of the fast-decaying “mumblecore movement” — shitty camerawork, non-actors talking constantly about almost nothing, the lives of twenty-somethings, humor of the most uncomfortable ...

The first thing I thought when I heard this song was, “Oh… yes. Oh yes. Yup.” Soon you will understand why. Meet Onuinu aka Dorian Duvall- a resident of Portland and a pioneer of the disco-hop music scene. His single, “Happy Home” is just a peek into what he’s put together for his debut album Mirror Gazer. Onuinu likes to call his music style “disco-hop” and I can see why. As soon as I heard ...

Music appreciation is made up from the fabric of relationships. The relationships we have with songs, with bands, the people we go to gigs with; they’re all bonded through the emotions of love, hate, sexy one night stands and intimate long termism’s. The internet has changed relationships though. Facebook and other social networks have given many people the sense of having many of them, but the depth and quality is actually very superficial. Our relationship with music is similar; it's now one of constant turnover. We see music bloggers making proclamations of how they adore a particular ...
