New Fever Ray Video is Wonderfully Creepy!
This twisted video only adds to my excitement over Karin Dreijer's (The Knife) new project Fever Ray. It features a haunted house, a mysterious death, taxidermy and Karin ditching her iconic Knife crow costume for some freaky skeleton face paint ...

Cold Weather Never Sounded So Good: Alaska in Winter's "Berlin"
Taken from his newly release album Holiday, Alaska in Winter, aka Brandon Bethancourt aka Zach Condan of Beirut's good buddy, "Berlin" is a synthesized wet-dream of a pop song. A little bit of Justice here, a little bit of Daft Punk there, mix i ...

Remix of the Week: HeartsRevolution - "Ultraviolence" (Chateau Marmont Remix)
Chateau Marmont's remix of HEARTSREVOLUTION's new single "Ultraviolence" is a super-moody synth-fest drowning out most of lead singer Lo's vocal moans. It's sedated, delusional feel makes for a perfect end-of-the-night anthem. The single "Ult ...

Remix of The Week: Radiohead - "Reckoner" (SALEM Remix)
SALEM's take on Radiohead's "Reckoner" is just as light as the original, but much more spooky employing ghostly synths and glitched vocals. In other words its not that dissimilar from Thom's solo work...and that's a good thing. Check out other " ...

Human People's "The Fantasy of Waking..." Featured in Art in the Age's 2008 Fall Lookbook Video
While some other brands (I won't mention any names--Urban Outfitters--whoops!) like to shell out the big bucks for the "hip song of the moment", local retailer and artist purveyors Art in the Age decided for a lesser known song. In fact, this be ...
