    The Needle Drop

    • N O U S • by SoftSpot A series of three adventurous tracks from the new SoftSpot release, • N O U S •.

    Aeroc- R+B=?

    The Needle Drop

    A full stream of a mid-December release from Ghostly International. Though this album’s release date will probably keep it from appearing on many year-end lists, Aeroc’s R+B=? is surely a must-visit for those into the more glitch’d side of IDM. Some of the percussive sounds here

    Asher Roth- "Choices" ft. Action Bronson

    The Needle Drop

    With production from Blended Babies, here’s a new track from Asher Roth featuring New York heavyweight Action Bronson. Even though a lotta people get down on Asher for his early output, I’ll be willing to forgive him if he continues to release gritty tracks like this. This track

    Cass McCombs- Humor Risk

    The Needle Drop

    The new Cass McCombs album, though I did find it to be a little middle-of-the-road, is a nice change of pace for this singer-songwriter. A good handful of the songs here have a harder rock edge to ’em, and some pretty interesting stories laced into the lyrics. WATCH THE REVIEW

    MP3 Here is the second track to drop from the forthcoming Cloud Nothings album, Attack On Memory. It’ll be out on Jan. 24th via Carpark. To be honest, I liked the first track to drop from this album more. The dark and moody aura that surrounded “No Future, No
