Here's to the end of an era...can't wait to see what these guys do next.

There goes the neighborhood: LA Times’ Brand X says goodbye

plugintodan — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 01:19:40 +0000

Yet another news publication has bitten the dust. Its not quite the headline-breaker like Rupert Murdoch‘s recent folding of the News of the World, the 168-year-old British tabloid that has received allegations for hacking into the cellphone of a murdered schoolgirl. But, the free, LA Times-owned, weekly arts, entertainment and culture magazine known as Brand [...]

plugintodan — Tue, 24 May 2011 03:46:50 +0000

Think From Monument to Masses meets The Notwist and the softer side of Explosions In The Sky. Music you can think to, write to, sleep to and even wake up to.

Big enough to play Coachella too, to thousands of screaming fans. But on the Thursday night before Coachella weekend, I caught these two astounding bands up [...]

GIRL TALK aka Gregg Gillis brought his larger-than-life dance party persona to the Pomona Fox Theater Saturday night. And I was there for the all-night rager. Mixing the likes of hip-hop legends like Notorious B.I.G. to teen pop melodies from Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears, Gregg Gillis and his plastic-wrapped Panasonic Toughbook can really move [...]

Wild Orchid Children will blow your mind

plugintodan — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 23:47:04 +0000

WILD ORCHID CHILDREN spawned from the dust of the unofficial, no longer indefinite hiatus taken by early ’00s alternative/progressive rock/pop band Gatsbys American Dream. They are one of many side projects started by Gastby members that has blossomed into far more than just a project. Or a side. The supergroup features Kirk Huffman (vocals), Kyle [...]

You really can sample anything…

An artist known as DraMatik sampling "Sleeping?" by The Swell Season. Rapping over mushy, moody singer songwriter ballads? Interesting. Awesome.
