Sigur Rós – Valtari album review

“I really can’t remember why we started this record, I no longer know what we were trying to do back then. I do know session after session went pear-shaped, we lost focus and almost gave up…did give up for a while. but then something happened and form started to emerge, and now I can honestly say that it’s the only sigur rós record I have listened to for pleasure in my own house after we’ve finished it.” – georg Sigur [...]

El-P – Cancer4Cure album review

Brooklyn rapper and producer, El-P, just released a radically contemporary LP on Fat Possum Records. His flow is angular and viciously intelligent. The instrumentals are diverse and cutting-edge. The pervasive drone is not unlike the constant noise levels in Brooklyn. A lot of songs, for example “Drones Over BKLYN” sound influenced by Death Grips’ aesthetic of metal and heavy machinery (not to mention the political relevance of drones). Stand-out single “The Full Retard” is a machine gun party. Quoting deceased friend [...]

OSCILLATE is a sleek mix by Montreal’s Jacques Greene, aired on Oki Noki Stereo. His beats are polished and his neat snips of R&B vocals are right on trend. Ranging from minimalist house to exuberant synth-pop, OSCILLATE is an hour-long study in good vibrations. OSCILLATE by Jacques Greene by Oki-Ni on Mixcloud

Showbiz & AG – Mug Shot Music: Preloaded album review

“Show and A! Before we give you the album, Mug Shot Music, we gonna give you the free album. Like my man Show would say, the free album before the album, and the title is called Pre-loaded…” [On Mug Shot Music: Preloaded, rapper AG (Andre the Giant) and producer Showbiz (the guy that produced KRS-One's “Sound of da Police”) team up for the second time since 1998. The two released a few albums together in the mid-90s but then focused on solo [...]
