New and upcoming artist – Disclosure

Origin: Surrey, England Disclosure are the British duo of brothers, Howard and Guy Lawrence and are definitely the one to look out for in 2013. With a mix of warm synth, deep bass and fast tapped beats, the guys recreate a vibe of future/house/garage music, but it’s definitely not something I’ve heard before. They are possibly the youngest and fastest rising DJ’s at the ages of 21 and 18 but damn, they’re good at it!…

Michael Belsar and Guy Chappell from Twinsy Almost a year ago the water works began at the announcement that Jet was breaking up. The sun seemed to be setting on Australian alternative rock music. However, new innovative bands are arriving on the scene and providing a fresh sound that is giving hope to everyone’s inner-Aussie.

Good Nights Bleed: The mysterious debut of Toys in Void

His album is lengthy and poetic and sounds like the product of a boy and his guitar, and his album art looks like expired film from the 70s, screaming of fading childhood and bittersweet memories… I found him while working my way through links upon links to artists recommended by other local artists on BandCamp.com. Though Toys in Void was on a few different lists, it seems the only things noted about him are that…

Villa Kang and Hazy Mountains – New Wings

‘New Wings’ is one of the most interesting tunes I’ve listened to all year, coming as a result of Canadian and German minds. The two sides involved are Villa Kang and Hazy Mountains, and as MP3 hugger puts it, their profiles would keep psychologists busy a really long time. But the production is great, the sound is just delightful, all in all, a really good song.

Thom Yorke’s Atoms for Peace new album details revealed

In case you might not remember, Atoms for Peace is a supergroup which consists of Radiohead’s Thom York, Flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers, longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich, Joey Waronker and Mauro Refosco. XL Records made a big bubu and published details about the album, something apparently they didn’t want to do. Thankfully, several fans took screenshots before they took it down, and sent it to us. Now, not only do we have a…

Source. Crystal Castles The song “Affection” is the latest Crystal Castles’ third album, ‘III’ , which will be out on November 12th (see Crystal Castles reveal new album) – they postponed the release date actually with a few more days than they originally announced. In my opinion, this song is different from Plague (from the same album), which only makes me more curious about the other songs from this new album….

Deap Vally’s new video for ‘End of the World’

Source. Deap Vally Deap Vally is a rock and roll, alternative, garage rock band formed by Lindsey Troy and Julie Edwards in 2011. Yeah, this chicks really know how to rock with only two instruments ( guitar and drums) and their trashy appearance makes me wanna compare them with Courtney Love, or some really hot groupies from the late 70’s-early 80’s, with only one completion: they really know how to sing….

Some October Releases to Watch

Every month brings about a mess a new releases from artists over each and every genre. Unfortunately, most of them come out quietly while others get brought up in every outlet. This is usually thanks to some sort of notoriety – just think about Billie Joe Armstrong and his freakout recently. Oops, I guess I kind of promoted their new album – but I’m not going say the name of it. Looking at the list…

Kids of 88

Fans of Kiwi electroclash duo Kids of 88 have been waiting in anticipation for several months, as the guys have been taking their time putting together a second full-length offering, entitled Modern Love. Their first album, Sugarpills, was an unmitigated critical success, earning the band attention outside their native New Zealand, and building a fan base that now reaches across Europe and the Americas as well. Initially the album was set to drop in late…
