Summer is upon us once more, and you know what that means: summer jams! Summer jams are great because every time you hear them, you will immediately be plunged into a rose-tinted reverie regarding the summer in question, which has the double benefit of making the summer seem nicer than it really was and dispelling… Read More

The last time we heard new music from Boards of Canada was in 2006, when they released their EP Trans Canada Highway. Up until then, they stood alongside Aphex Twin as one of the biggest acts on Warp, the British independent label best known for its cutting-edge electronic releases in the 1990s and early 2000s.

We may never know the answer to these questions for sure, since the incontrovertible evidence is sealed in Queen B’s high-security, temperature-controlled personal archive (which really does exist — it’s really hard to write anything about Beyonce without… Read More

Via Stereogum: Rumors have been circulating for a while now of a new album by Kanye West — who’s only released the collaborative efforts Watch the Throne (with Jay-Z) and Cruel Summer (as head of G.O.O.D. Music) since his 2010 magnum opus My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy stole our hearts, ran away with our charts, and swept the critics’ 2010… Read More

In a piece of hip-hop news even weirder than that time last summer when Snoop Dogg died and Snoop Lion rose like a rastafoenix from his ashes, rapper Sean Combs, aka Diddy, better known to most by former noms du rap P Diddy (to those born in the early ’90s) and/or Puff Daddy (to everyone older than… Read More

Yet another weird development for a band with one of the least predictable stories out there: three former members of the now-dissolved, tragically short-lived British rock band/cult/gang of hooligans/peddlers of transcendental experience WU LYF (standing for “World United Lucifer Youth Foundation”) have regrouped and formed Los Porcos, a self-described yacht rock band whose terrible name… Read More

In 2010, the name Jai Paul was whispered excitedly as the British R&B singer’s only track, “BTSTU,” made the internet rounds. Its walloping synthesizers, cheeky sax, and seasick hip-hop beat were instantly appealing, but the real sell was the way Jai communicated foulmouthed statements of defiance and empowerment (“Don’t fuck with me,” goes the opening… Read More
