Finland’s Star You Star Me has been putting out minimalistic house grooves for the past couple years now. In 2005, the duo released a trilogy of eps called Star 1, Star 2 and Star 3. This week brought us the end cap to this work — their debut album, Simple Things. “A Place In My [...]

I was sitting at work today, and it was just one of those “Feeling Good” type days. Even though my allergies are making me ill and I’m completely broke and my email has been all sorts of fucked up and about a billion other personal things I’m not about to get into, it was a [...]

Sure, if I were to lump Midnight Juggernauts into a genre, I’d probably say they’re electro-rock. But seriously guys, what does that mean? You [...]

So IAMX is back with a vengeance. Chris couldn’t make his sound more beautiful and elegant, especially on this new release ‘The Alternative’. Bringing back sounds of coke phases and stripper poles he please’s your senses and satisfies your want for more. The sophomore album does nothing more than grow on you like a vine [...]
