There are two things I love more than anything: androgynous lesbians and moody music. I love it even more when the androgynous lesbians are making the moody music. Bonus points if they”™re from Canada.
So of course I would be all hot for The Organ. The Organ have had a whirlwind couple years and have quickly [...]

This is a band that you should definately know. The Bush Tetras are an amazing band with super hot rough girl vocals. They have a post-punk, funk, dark rock sound. They had members of James Chance and the Contortions and The Clash, and have been thrown in with the whole New York No Wave movement [...]

If you walked into any club in 2001-02 you were sure to hear Vitalic’s La Rock 01. It seemed like every DJ played this track…
Almost four years and a handful of singles later, Vitalic has finally released his first full length. Boy was it worth the wait. Honestly, I was worried this album would [...]

Fuck this song is the best thing ever. When I was in Madrid I was listening to it non-stop. I don’t even know if they are Spanish or anything. I can’t find anything about them, I can’t find their records, nothing. If someone can help please let me know. I’m sure they are a one [...]

Forget that leak of The White Stripes’ new song. Missy Elliott sent out an e-card yesterday for her new album, The Cook Book, due out June 28th!
Starting today you can be the first to hear two new songs from The Cook Book on her website… On and On & Lose Control.
Here is the tracklist for [...]

Hey. This is pretty cool.
XL Records has a few high quality M.I.A. acapellas up for grabs.
You can download them. Fuck with them. Make your own remix. And then (eventually) upload it to their website and share with the world.
Piracy does fund terrorism.
Gotta love XL. Gotta love M.I.A.

let’s be honest here. i don’t know about you, but i am not a fan of dj mix cds. something is lost during the translation from the club to my home stereo. it’s just never as good.
but that said, i have always been thrilled with !K7’s dj-kicks. i’m always waiting on the edge of my [...]

Lately I have been into the Damon Albarn 2 10″ records. They are all just little cute songs he did while on tour in America, i believe with Blur.
I thought the Gorillaz had come to an end. After all I did see them on tour and although it was a really great time with friends [...]

this is news to me. i don’t watch tv. so i did not know karen o did a song for an adidas commercial.
anyway. you can buy this “exclusive” track off of itunes. it’s kind of interesting. very floaty and quiet. nothing you would expect from the lead singer of the yeah yeah yeahs.
some yeah [...]

there is a little band (the blood arm) from the big city (los angeles) that is causing quite the stir (at least franz ferdinand thinks so).
so far they’ve only released a limited edition demo called bomb romantics that is currently sold out. but don’t worry. rumor has it they are in the studio recording [...]

i cannot keep my eyes open. damn you daylights saving time!

but to the point:

welcome! bigstereo is a community music blog. i’ve been blogging on and off since 1997… usually without purpose. music is my number one passion though. i’m obsessed. so i decided to create a new blog.. this [...]
