Robyn’s three stage Body Talk album is almost up for proper release in its entirety seeing how the third EP, Body Talk pt. 3, will be out in less than two weeks from now. As an exquisite treat from our favorite Swede synthpop artist, Robyn posted three tracks (it’s the post’s magic number alright) off the upcoming EP on YouTube, which can be streamed below. You can read more about Robyn and the EP over…
At the beginning of next year Mike Skinner will allegedly roll out The Streets’ final album, a time for both rejoice and sorrow – let’s just hope he changes his mind in the meantime or at least in the near future. Enough of that anyway, we’ve got merrier news to share today, and in the spirit of generosity Skinner released a new track via twitter off the upcoming Computer & Blues, an electronic orientated record…

Suddenly I couldn’t see a thing 50 feet ahead, moment at which I couldn’t help but thinking “this shit is creepy”. I’m home now, safe, sound and warm, and strangely enough I came across this incredible track by Britain’s Veronica Falls called “Found Love in a Graveyard”. It’s really a very adorable song -…

A brand new video for a fashionably old Streets song – beware! Beware of Mike Skinner and his incredible appetite that is, since, besides incredibly rapid fire close-ups, he can be seen devouring copious amounts of food, while sitting back enjoying an after-meal fattie. Although the video isn’t that interesting, I’m more than happy to post “Trust Me” anytime. It’s “dancing music to drink tea to” like Skinner very well went on to describe the…

The order was definitely settles this Tuesday when U.S. District Judge Kimba Wood in Manhattan entered a permanent injunction, ordering the service to disable the searching, downloading, uploading or file…
This summer I managed to get ahold of some footage and samples of the alleged new Tron Legacy soundtrack by futuristic house DJs Daft Punk. I was sorry to find out a few days later that they were actually fakes. Today, it seems like we’ve been finally granted to hear the real deal once with the release of this latest Tron trailer, which besides revealing some incredibly awesome scenes from the upcoming 3D blockbuster, also…
