If you haven’t got on the Savoy bandwagon yet, perhaps the video embedded above will help you make the jump. As we told you in our recent feature on the act, this is an electronic dance act with the soul of a rock band — and the show to go…
The browns, beiges and orange-reds of this week’s top flier put us more in mind of autumn than late spring. But looking out the window at the gray sky and scrim of snow sticking to things puts us more in mind of autumn too, so it’s strangely fitting. Perhaps Sun…
Back in the day, if you wanted to pull off a one-man band shtick, you needed a lot of instruments, a clever way to strap them all to your body and an unreal amount of coordination. Now, you just need five cellphones, some tape and a portable speaker. Oh, and…
Experimental noise-pop krautrock act Holy Fuck is not the easiest band in the world to love. Hell, it isn’t the easiest band in the world to talk about — you can’t even say the name in polite company or on the radio. But if you love krautrock and wish the…
It’s a Freaky Friday double-shot! Can you ever have enough Autotune? Not if this week’s Freaky Friday twofer Mizz Black Italia Spice is to believed. This may the Autotuniest song ever. It may also be the worst song ever, independent of its reckless overuse of Autotune. It’s a ramshackle, barely…
Friends, we have something truly special for you today. And by truly special, we mean completely fucked up. And by completely fucked up, we mean OMGWTFBBQ?!? Today’s video comes from a Swedish act called Super Viral Brothers. It is NSFW. It is NSFW. Let us repeat, in case we weren’t…
Ah, audiobooks. That great modern invention that means even the busiest people can still enjoy a book here and there. Especially those of us that find ourselves stuck in cars for hours a day commuting. Too bad they’re as expensive as real books — even more so sometimes. If only…
What better opportunity than Cinco de Mayo to return to the excellent 1987 bio pic La Bamba, about the life and death of one of rock history’s most promising and tragic figures, Ritchie Valens? “It’s not an official, citywide event, but the Cinco de Mayo celebration is that weekend,” explains…
French-born, Miami-based Cedric Gervais crafts a brand of house that weaves threads of electro and progressive house into a big, shimmery, club-smashing tapestry of late-night abandon. On hits such as “Spirit in My Life,” Gervais displays a talent for slick, vocal-driven progressive house that would make fellow Frenchman David Guetta…
Great fliers don’t have to always involve meticulous design work, professional illustration and cutting-edge aesthetics. Sometimes, a little, earnest sketch is all it takes. As in today’s flier, which gives us a little sunshine, a little weirdness and a good vibe for a show at the Glob. Who among us…
Trent Reznor has revealed How to Destroy Angels, his first post-Nine Inch Nails project. It’s a collaboration with his wife, Mariqueen Maandig, formerly the frontwoman of West Indian Girl and it was mixed by Alan Moulder, a name familiar to industrial fans. So what does it sound like?…
The latest release from Zachary Tipton’s I am the Dot project has arrived and, in case you’re keeping track, this makes the fourth release since his first Dot EP last November. The latest release is a three-song called Minimal Love and it may be the best thing he’s released yet…
When we were in grade school, our choir used to sing old chestnuts like “Tie a Yellow Ribbon,” which is probably why joining the choir seemed like slightly less fun than getting our lunch money stolen. But the times, they are a changin’. At least in India, they are. Yeah,…
We all remember those “This is your brain on drugs” ads, right? Featured a frying egg? Did that ever convince anyone to not use drugs? Yeah, we didn’t think so. Today’s video though? If the Partnership for a Drug Free America had this, they might have been able to claim…
We told you back in February that Constellations were returning with new music. Now, almost three months later, the first release has arrived. The Lady Coast EP is here for your free downloading pleasure. You get two new songs and two remixes of “Lady Coast.” The original of “Lady Coast”…
Trance DJ, producer and radio host Matt Darey is probably best known for his 2007 hit “Beautiful Day,” but he’s been a force in the dance-music world for close to fifteen years: He was releasing tracks like “From Russia With Love” and remixing such trance classics as Binary Finary’s “1998”…
This week’s flier of the week is not one flier but three fliers, one for each of the members of Lion Sized. This first randomly selected (we’re not aware of any particular order) flier effectively sets the tone for the rest of what you’re getting — a splattery, exploded portrait…
Noise lovers, rejoice! This weekend, Old Curtis Street (2100 Curtis Street) will be transformed into a celebration of all things noisy, experimental, grating and possibly hearing-damaging, courtesy of Denver Noise Fest (look for an interview with the festival’s curators Todd Novosad and John Gross in this week’s paper). Almost forty…
If you like your trance hard, fast and as electronic as a robot’s dreams, you are really going to like Ghosh. The Denver/Dubai based DJ is dedicated to a strain of driving, energetic trance that’s indebted to the early days of European trance, when it represented the (barely) softer side…
In the vast universe of freaky shit from which we draw the material for this here Freaky Friday, the strangest entries often come from enthusiastic amateurs with a great love for their art and absolutely no skill at their craft whatsoever. Or sometimes, with a great love for some weird…
The biggest expense touring bands face is lodging. Motel rooms, even shitty ones, aren’t cheap. Sometime you can sleep in the van, but let’s face it — that sucks for a multitude of reasons, even though it’s cheap. What is cheap and doesn’t usually suck is crashing on the floor,…
Put on your best mask and cape and head out to do great good tonight at BASH!, the Young Philanthropists Foundation’s biggest fundraising event of the year. The group’s mission is to give kids the power to change the world via volunteering and philanthropy. What better way to do that…
