    The Gaslamp Killer has released a video for the massively heavy closing track to his latest full-length album, Breakthrough. It’s an incredible track that features wailing synths, ear-shattering percussion, and dramatic strings. It’s got some incredible textures on it, and I’m glad to see this monolithic beatmusic

  • Throughout an excellent debut LP and a handful of stellar EPs, Nicolas Jaar has proven himself worthy in a number of roles throughout the past few years: a producer with fine attention to detail, a justifiably patient songwriter, and a seductive singer. His skills extend to a live context as

    The Flaming Lips drop a lyric video for the eerie “Try To Explain,” which is one of the many spacey and synthetic tracks off the group’s latest album, The Terror. The album drops officially next week. Enjoy! Check a review for the Heady Fwends compilation the band dropped last

    Cro Magnox by Ceephax Ceephax takes a break from his typical acid techno-tinged song production style to create a collection of electronic pieces that sound a bit more epic, cinematic. Numerous cuts of Cro Magnox sound as if they could serve as the perfect soundtrack to a b-movie produced in
