    The Strokes - "All The Time"

    The Needle Drop

    New York’s swankiest rock band, the Strokes, have dropped another single from their forthcoming LP, Comedown Machine. The album currently looking at a March 26th release date, but I’m not so sure I’m excited to get there after this listening experience. As you may know, I dug

    clipping. - "LOUD"

    The Needle Drop

    A few days ago, I told you guys about up-and-coming hip hop outfit clipping, and their debut mixtape midcity. The be blunt, the tracks on this thing are noisy and hedonistic, and that’s all there is to it. The project now has a new video about, and it’s

    Veronica Falls - Waiting For Something To Happen

    The Needle Drop

    On this new, sophomore album, Jangle pop outfit Veronica falls works to homogenize their sound, but the issue is that it wasn’t really that diverse in the first place. WATCH THE REVIEW

    Holly Herndon @ Boiler Room

    The Needle Drop

    Video of producer / DJ Holly Herndon performing at the Boiler Room. It’s not the most accessible Boiler Room set you’ll see; it actually takes Holly about twelve minutes to present some semblance of a steady beat. However, it’s still pretty awesome to see her perform the mind-bending

    Beach Fossils - Clash The Truth

    The Needle Drop

    Stream the new Beach Fossils album in full via the Hype Machine widget above. Though I haven’t really been a huge fan of most groups shooting for this guitar-driven dream pop sound, I’m finding this new record to be way more detailed, approachable, and memorable. Of course, it

    Cokiyu - "Twinkle Way" ft. Baths

    The Needle Drop

    A precious track from Cokiyu, which features bubbly synth arpeggios, dreamy vocals, and a slow-moving beat that’s riddled with detail. Cokiyu is the pseudonym of music producer Yukiko Ito, and the track streaming above comes from her latest single release, “Haku,” which features collaborations from a handful of different

    Everything Everything - "Duet" (Session Performance)

    The Needle Drop

    Everything Everything delivers a session performance of the song “Duet” for The Line of Best Fit. Watch, enjoy. I was catching a serious Coldplay vibe on this track, but the band’s eccentric approach to vocals and melody definitely keep them in a spot of their own.

    Meet Ela Orleans

    The Needle Drop

    Glasgow is bringing out the charming lo-fi indie pop and I am totally okay with that. Because not only is Ela Orleans charming, but you can feel the personality held within it and that is what makes it stick out from the piles of artists trying to do the same
