Last year’s death of J Dilla was sad not only because he was so young and such a great musician, but because he was just beginning to be acknowledged as one of the greats. Dilla did not seek recognition and stardom by making big anthems and saying his name on every track he produced. […]
This coming Tuesday brings us Sound Of Silver, the second album from those “Hipster-House” superstars LCD Soundsystem. If you have not had the chance to listen to it well, you should. While your at it you should check out Sounds Like Silver. Its an unofficial remix album available for download. It […]
I grabbed the above photo of Amy Winehouse from her myspace. Click on it and you can see all the records that came out today, her’s included.
One of the more delightful discoveries from the latest mp3 roundup was the new track from Antibalas, “I.C.E.” Their latest album, “Security,” is now available, which should please fans of groove and passion. Antibalas is a modern American Afrobeat band/orchestra that includes some of the finest players in New York, many of whom […]

One of the most inventive electronic composers returns on Tuesday.

The new drop is called “Foley Room” and here he […]
This coming Tuesday, the new album by RJD2, “The Third Hand,” drops on XL. Those familiar with his work from his Definitive Jux albums should be surprised. The sampler hero has changed his approach. For one thing, he is singing. What? DJs aren’t supposed to sing! Thank heavens RJ […]

The good people at Daptone Records have done the public service of digging up “If This World Were Mine…”, an album by teen soul sensations Bob & Gene, made in the late 60s by obscure Buffalo label MoDo, for its first release on CD. Daptone has developed a stellar reputation, using the best musicians […]
It is fairly common for aging artists past their peak to cash in on an unplugged hits set. It is interesting, however, when the artists in question are the romantic synth pop icons Erasure, and the entire set is performed in Nashville using traditional acoustic instruments, completely abandoning the electronic sheen that defined them. […]
The most elaborate Apples production to date. Clocking in at 53 minutes, the album contains 14 songs, 12 additional “link tracks,” and an Apples first — the newly invented “Non-Pythagorian Music Scale” included in both digital sound files and an in-depth video description on the enhanced portion of this multimedia CD. If all that […]
