    Blood Orange - Cupid Deluxe

    Årabrot - "The Story of Lot"

    The Needle Drop

    “The Story of Lot,” the last single from Norwegian noise rock collective Årabrot, is a left-field turn from an already left-field band.  The 15-minute piece is comprised of Kjetil Nernes recounting the Bible’s tale of the drunken, incestuous title character over a propulsive, lurching bassline that amasses harsh electronic

    L S D X O X O - "Truth Tella" ft. Cakes Da Killa

    The Needle Drop

    NYC electronic musician L S D X O X O may have just produced Cakes Da Killa’s greatest track yet. Cake’s flow is hard and precise over “Truth Tella”‘s sauntering chiptune-esque instrumental. If you’re familiar with a certain Pokemon creepypasta, this cut might make you a

    MGMT - "Alien Days"

    The Needle Drop

    Check out MGMT’s new video for the song “Alien Days;” it’s a delightful, farm-set romp! Our main characters, a young rural couple, appear to be in a constant state of elation – frolicking, swimming, spinning in gyroscopes, experiencing childbirth…Erm, actually, that last one proves to be not so

    SNSCRN - Ave. B

    The Needle Drop

    Lips – EP by SNSCRN “Ave. B” has got to be my favorite cut from this new SNSCRN EP, and you can stream it via the Bandcamp widget above. The track’s hip hop-style groove, scurrying hi-hats, and playful vocal sampling make it a standout on this incredibly short EP, Lips.
