  • New Benoit Pioulard track

    Oooh, here we go – the first full-length track from Benoit Pioulard’s new album, Lasted, here for us to listen to. So. Excited. I’ve ordered the special edition album (I’m a sucker for anything unusual or handmade when it comes to my favourite musicians) and hopefully I’ll have it in my hands in a few…

  • Windings Grows Old Like J

    You can’t fight the ageing process – no matter how much you try and deny Old Father Time, he’s going to visit you eventually. Even a hefty dose of botulinum toxin won’t stop him. One man who recently found himself preoccupied with growing older is Windings, aka Steve Ryan (and band), and he came to…

  • I Don’t Know…

    ..who Sí is…I think she is from Cork…there are two songs on her Bandcamp site and no link to a website. Googling brings up nothing… …but I do know that this song sent shivers up my spine: Who is Sí? (check the comments below and you’ll find out!)

    S Carey is the percussionist and pianist for Bon Iver’s band, but he’s also the creator of one of this year’s most beautiful albums. Heart-swelling, hair-on-the-back-of-your-neck-standing-up type stuff. All We Grow Jump in. (via Brooklyn Vegan)

  • New York City, f*ck off.

    Matson Jones, please reform.

  • of Montreal do Michael Jackson

    It’s not easy to cover a Michael Jackson song without sounding like a bad karaoke band – it’s even harder to do a Michael Jackson medley without sounding like you’re short on ideas and full of beer. But the glitter-shorts-wearing, eyeliner-loving, freak-funk-bassline-adoring of Montreal are just the band to tackle a Michael Jackson medley and…

  • Perfect Plugd Pics

    Plugd is back. Back! And bigger and better than ever – like some sort of magical record store in an ad: Back! Bigger! Better! New Techno-House section curated by Albert! (Ok, I made the last bit up) I finally made it into the new Plugd (which is located in the Triskel Loading Bay building opposite…

  • Still Bill

    How do you turn a duck into a soul singer? Put it into an oven until its bill withers Alright, that may be the worst joke in the world – and I’m an animal-loving veggie so I know it’s not the most tasteful either! – but hey, if I tell you it’s all in the…
