    The Gaslamp Killer- "Flange Face" ft. Miguel Atwood-Ferguson

    The Needle Drop

    A new track from the grimy, dark beatmaster himself, the Gaslamp Killer. Last I heard of this guy, he was producing Gonjasufi’s a Sufi and a Killer, and putting out an EP that I reviewed pretty well. I’m excited to hear that on Sept. 18th, he’s gonna

    Jeremiah Jae- "Money"

    The Needle Drop

    Visuals for the new Jeremiah Jae single, “Money,” which is out now via Brainfeeder. While we all need money to live, this new track from Jae serves as a reminder of how joyless the pursuit of it can be. Dark, understated, and pretty moving. This track comes from Jae’s

    Debo Band- Self-Titled

    The Needle Drop

    Funk, jazz, and pop all come together with an Ethiopian edge on the Debo Band’s self-titled debut for Sub Pop Records. Now, I know I listen to a lotta music, but the music of Ethiopia isn’t exactly my area of expertise, ya know? I’m not about to

    Teotl Expansion- P:1

    The Needle Drop

    P:1 by Teotl Expansion A handful of long, ambient motifs built of electronically edited piano playing coming off this Teotl Expansion EP, P:1. While, on paper, the musical concept of this EP seems pretty simple–and, uh, well, it is–the final result is something that’s actually

    Moritat- "Cats"

    The Needle Drop

    A great new song and video from Chicago rock outfit Moritat. No obnoxious hype or melodramatic backstory here. Just a straight tune and strange video. There’s some nice interplay between the guitars and drums, and structure of the track is downright progressive. The band’s new album is streamable

    METZ- "Headache"

    The Needle Drop

    METZ is a new Canadian rock outfit, and they’re making their full-length debut this October on Sub Pop records, which is a huge start for any up-and-comer. It’s a big opportunity, and the band has the sound to match it. The first single from this forthcoming self-titled album

    Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti- "Only In My Dreams"

    The Needle Drop

    Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti drops a new, summery track from their forthcoming album, Mature Themes. The guitar parts here have a bit of a sweet, 60s pop rock edge to ’em, but that’s sort of tapered with Pink’s usual dose of oddball vocals and general weirdness. Of
