Jesse Woods At Origami Vinyl, Saturday November 17th 2012

Up in the Origami loft, Jesse Woods played a few of his peaceful tuneful songs showing all these influences and beyond, as I could hear a little bit of the Everly Brothers on ‘Ugly Dress’, just before the interesting chorus repeating ‘I’ll be waiting in northern California for you’. All I can say is that I didn’t see any of the tough side of the football player

Aaron Embry And His Tiny Prayers

Embry may be making music very distant from the exuberance of his last band, but in this electronica era his music sounds humble and genuine, with no superfluous arrangements, just as cozy as a warm wood cabin during a cold fall evening

Not With The Band: Who Are The Real Songwriters?

If you look at the current pop princesses, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Adele, Lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Shakira, Beyonce and current pop heartthrobs, Justin Bieber, Bruno Mars, Chris Brown, the One Direction kids… how many really deserve the title of artists? Probably none.

Cat Power At The Palladium, Thursday November 8th 2012, Reviewed

A young and cute girl with a pink dress came on stage to sing Iggy Pop’s part during ‘Nothing But Time’, and despite the fact that Chan didn’t introduce her, there is a rumor it was her ex-boyfriend’s daughter, Lucia Ribisi, and looking at the hug they gave to each other at the end of the song, I would say that the rumor is true.

METZ At The Echo, Wednesday November 7th 2012

Watch Deer Park Avenue's Debut Video For 'Hey Maria'

After watching it a couple of times, I can tell that the video is as fun as the song is upbeat!

The Independent Labels Market In Silver Lake. Saturday November 3rd 2012

If you wanted to buy a Keith Morris doll, a Stone Throw poster or a Diplo t-shirt, this was the place to be on Saturday! In this day and age when music is downloaded (or stolen), streamed and does not have a physical life anymore, this was a way to restore this loss of identity, this was a way to restore a contact between the consumers and the producers

Vampire Weekend Debut 'Unbelievers' On Jimmy Kimmel Live

I want to repeat some of the lyrics of the song, ‘I’m not excited but should I be?’, I mean the song is really bouncy and dynamic, and I had it in repeat in my head after listening to it only twice, demonstrating how catchy the music is, but I was expecting a little more for some reason

Cheap Beer’ is like a rush of adrenaline you get out of your chest in two minutes, while running for your life… With its reminiscence of The Cramps’ guitars and an infectious-stormy rhythm, the song is a multi-facet of influences, both pop-tune and wild-thrilling punk ride
