NE011: An Exclusive Nils Frahm Mix
March 28, 2010
As much as we love extreme music–ear-gouging stuff like the Ben Frost set we saw at (Le) Poisson Rouge the other night–it’s not allowed anywhere near our Sunday morning stereo. That spot is reserved for sedate but stunning records like the spindly piano pieces of Nils Frahm, a young Berliner who’s been cultivating a cult […]

March 27, 2010
[Photo by Sebastian Miynarski] We get a lot of crap CDs at the self-titled offices. But once in a while, a pleasant surprise slips into our promo stack. Here’s a recent delivery that knocked the s/t staff on its collective ass.

March 25, 2010
Photo by Autumn de Wilde Utter disbelief. That’s the reaction we got from a close friend after revealing just how much we love Nada Surf‘s Let Go album. What do we look like? The kind of guys who only listen to death-metal and ultra-limited noise LPs? Actually, don’t answer that question. Go ahead and grab […]

MICROWAVE ONLY: Busting TVs and Eardrums With Oneida, Sightings and The Library Is On Fire
March 24, 2010
Photos by Turkishomework Each week we send Turkishomework out to capture a sliver of our city’s blurred-vision nightlife.
