Music and all about the ways in which music enriches us and our life.
Now, after a few years of slowly growing popularity, the extremely talented Pixel Grip, has just appeared on KEXP. That’s great news! Just a matter of time now, before they become a household name, I hope. They have the talent, and the material at this point,to stand on their own.
Looking forward to seeing them finally get the recognition they deserve for some of their outstanding work.
Every now and again, I stumble across something that really just stops me in my tracks. It’s palpably different, and feels like it’s something fresh and new. The potential is there and the talent is clearly evident.
This becomes an ember, which soon may become the all consuming fire of something unstoppable. A force of nature, if you will. Possibly.
Remixes are fairly common, however, the concept of mashups is a little less so. This is where Dreams of Collapse comes in. I ran across this gentleman’s YouTube channel the other day and found some of his work to be quite moving and stunningly good. He seems to be focused on mashing up two separate artist’s songs to create something completely new and different. In addition to this, he also re-imagines and remixes some classics into the same, something completely new and different.
If you are a fan of the artists he’s chosen, which are good artists, I encourage you to subscribe to his channel. He’s very actively engaged there and putting out new material regularly. This is someone to watch, I suspect he will garner quite a bit of attention for the work he’s done and is doing in this area.
I’m fairly certain Health’s new release contains new material. Side D is exceptionally well done. They get better over time. Check their new release out:
What a talent filled trio. They keep getting better as they push into new sonic areas. Fun, thought provoking, sexy, talented, are just a few words to describe their latest offering, “Percepticide: The Death of Reality”. Check it out here:
I ran across the new release by Alison Goldfrapp this week and wanted to share. It’s electronica, fused pop goodness. I didn’t skip any of the tracks. Some tracks are stronger than others, but given what this release is, it’s all worth listening to. Enjoy it here:
It’s hump day. What better way to start it off than with a dreamy, dream pop band like Night Tapes? This found it’s way into my playlist the other day. They are chill, and pretty good overall, check them out on youtube here:
This is a great track. Yet another good one I missed somehow, which I am happy to say showed up in my playlist unexpectedly. Moby is a great Soundtrack composer. He should do more like this!
I really dig this song. It takes you to the edge of a crescendo. However, it never quite gets there. It’s like you’re sitting on the edge of your seat all the way through. So brilliant, enjoy!
Happy Saturday, people of the internet! Here’s a new interview of another very talented new artist in the music scene. Have a great weekend!
This song found itself in my playlist the other day. I haven’t heard this in forever. It’s good old school industrial. Brings back good memories. Enjoy.
