Hello. I’m a conservative, white, heterosexual male, and I routinely choose to indulge in the privilege of speaking my mind. Among my myriad other interests and responsibilities, I occasionally write and submit music news posts to an online music magazine called Tiny Mix Tapes (Sometimes I enjoy this work; sometimes I don’t: it is what it is).

Although loosely attributed to 17th century poet John Milton, the quip “Luck is the residue of design” is more often referenced with the pioneering baseball executive Branch Rickey in mind. His full quote on the subject went something like: “good luck is what is left over after intelligence and effort have combined at their best.” Add a little something about “doing good stuffs” and you can pretty much can sum-up the career of famed lo-fi all-stars Elf Power. Twitching in Time, the band’s thirteenth album, is released today via its own imprint Orange Twin and, as “luck” would have it, we have the full-album stream below!
Many of us have been truly fortuitous to have had Elf Power in our music-listening lives for many years now. But for the sake of the uninitiated: the band formed in 1994 and share the same timeless quality and charm as many of the like-minded Elephant 6 psychsters with whom they have long-been associated (Orange Twin has issued many of their friends’ records over the years, and some early Elf Power efforts were…
From Darth Vader starting off as a fatherless kid with bad acting skills to Lebron James allegedly being the product of an underground medical experiment funded by Spalding, every superhuman has their origin story.
And while many might consider Keiji Haino’s 70s trip along the Milky Way a key point in his elongated step into the Japanese noise scene, the sole didn’t come to rest until 1981, when Haino’s debut studio album Watashi Dake? was released on vinyl to a relatively small audience. The Pinakotheca label sponsored the release in a correspondingly small edition, and the only other reissue since that time (until now)…
Yes, dudes and dudettes: Major League Butt-kicking is back in town.
Okay. That’s a wrap! We can all de-activate our SoundClouds and go home now. Turns out that Cornelius — a.k.a. Japanese producer Keigo Oyamada; a.k.a. the ORIGINAL sound-collage-maestro and top-shelf orchestrator of playful, electro-acoustic music, a.k.a…uh, well, CORNELIUS, man! — is back. He wants to thank all us amateur tinkerers for holding down the fort, but he’s he’s pretty much got it from here!
The venerable old master’s first new album in 11 years (a number so large that I don’t even have to spell it out in-full for…
U2 just released a new mix of The Joshua Tree track “Red Hill Mining Town” for the album’s 30th anniversary, and they played the song live for the first time ever when they performed the LP in full at their 30th anniversary tour opener in Vancouver last night. More
Fleet Foxes have a knack for making frustration sound appealing. In many of their songs, desire is consistently hindered by reality, yet their grand sound renders simple moments triumphant. More
Earlier this week, KRS-One dropped an album that featured a track called “Hip Hop Speaks From Heaven.” As hinted at in the title, the song shouts out the stars the culture has lost over the years, including J Dilla, Nate Dogg, the Notorious B.I.G., Phife Dawg, and the Beastie Boys’ Ad-Rock. More
After a string of EPs as sweaty and cathartic as they are intricately crafted, Philadelphia’s Sheer Mag have just announced their debut full-length Need To Feel Your Love. More
