New York City’s The Golden Filter may have just put out one of the sexiest jams of the summer with “Solid Gold” and no one knows a single thing about them. A revved up, glittery disco-bassline and icy synths anchor your feet to the dancefloor while airy female vocals breeze past on rays of [...]
This mixtape pulls together a collection of some of my favorite French music from the 1960s through today to celebrate Bastille Day. The French national holiday (which was celebrated in Philadelphia over the weekend at Eastern State Penitentary), commemorates the storming of the Bastille, which took place on July 14, 1789, marking the beginning [...]
Today marks the longest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere, with the sun not setting until a late 8:31pm. Kick back with your favorite iced cocktail and chill to the dubbed out cosmic-disco vibe of Studio’s remake of A Mountain of One’s “Brown Piano.” Go ahead and make the track [...]

Avante-garde post-rock outfit Apse are gearing up for a busy 2008. The last time we checked in with the Cape Cod, MA six-piece was in 2006 on the heels of their elegant LP Spirit. Originally released on Spanish imprint Acuarela Discos, the record will be re-released in May this year (according to the [...]
We were going to do one of those mixtapes we typically do on this site to welcome Spring, but with fellow contributors out climbing mountains, moving, having kids, and getting all important at work, it’s been tough to pull something together this month. Every year there seems to be a certain track that wakes [...]
I was reading an interview with promoter/DJ/party thrower Dave P over on Philebrity the other day about the new party he started last week called Snacks.
