    Roman Flügel- "Song with Blue"

    The Needle Drop

    A track off the latest release from German electronic music producer Roman Flügel. Fatty Folders is the LP’s title. It’s out on Dial. The track above, “Song With Blue,” features a very subtle beat, but it still puts four to the floor. I’m loving the jazzy ride

    Shlohmo- "Just Us"

    The Needle Drop

    A new video from Shlohmo’s latest release, Bad Vibes. The song is “Just Us,” and it’s been given these visuals by director Arthur Chance. With a dark room and a load of televisions, I think he captured the vibe of this song perfectly. Check my review of Shlohmo’

    Das Racist- Relax

    The Needle Drop

    Das Racist’s Relax is a bit of a letdown for me. I just didn’t enjoy it as much as the tapes. There are plenty of tracks here where the guys are their usual, hilarious selves. However, some of the funnier tracks lack the focus that make songs such

    Nerves Junior- "Kale"

    The Needle Drop

    A video directed by my good friend Zach from We Listen For You. I told him I thought it was hilarious, but he said that wasn’t his intention. I just wanna be clear that this video isn’t hilarious in a bad way. I just think that these girls

    The Strange Boys- "Me and You"

    The Needle Drop

    A new track and video from Texas’ Strange Boys. I fell for these guys back when they were more of a garage rock band, but the outfit’s latest album, Be Brave, showed a transition occurring. It wasn’t the smoothest of changes, but the ‘Boys were admirably branching out
