I really wish that I went to high school with John Maus. Instead, I went to a small town school chock full of rural jocks and burnouts who revered Gary Richrath’s “Flying Turkey Trot” as the epitome of music culture. If only John Maus lived in Etter, MN, near me, in high school. We could […]

DJ Krush’s minimal instrumental hip hop intertwined with Toshinori Kondo‘s Kind Of Blue lonely trumpet puts me deep inside a Cowboy Bebop episode. I had this on serious repeat when I so joyfully owned a vintage 1984 Porsche 928S in the early 2000s. Serious driving music for serious driving (or chilling out). The lo-fi hip […]

Modyfier is an Artist’s platform: it’s an idea acting as energy, it’s an experiment in accrual (as a collection), it’s an attitude that rides creativity and freedom. The Process Series relies on referral as people who participate each suggest someone else, creating its form, shifting in directions I would not be able to steer alone. […]

Contort Yourself, purveyors of obscure, difficult industrial noise that damn well makes your body move, are on their sixth compilation, and this one is flat-out great. As usual, it’s a mix of old and new, with the standout discovery being Penelope’s Fiance, a Greek producer who shifts uncannily between the unsettling and the sublime. There’s two […]

When I wake up in the morning and find this kind of stuff on Facebook, it literally makes my day. This is a re-posted from FACT Mag. “Youarelistening.to is a site that generates strange, endless sound collages by loading ambient tracks from SoundCloud and blending them with police radio chatter from locations across the […]

I have developed a healthy fascination with this recording. This is one of those tracks that, at the very same time, takes me back and forward in time. I will sleep on a sidewalk outside a ticket vendor to see this live (like I did for The Cars in 1979 where other ticket goers […]

NightFlight is back with a Plus subscription and a Roku channel. I can not overstate the amount of influence that this late night cable television production had on my young life, in the 80s… an open cultural window to the world from a barren small North Dakota college apartment. The resurrected site and library feature […]

How cool is this? If the internet existed for only one reason… this might very well qualify.

Chill and interesting music from C:/NN/1 who is “An implausible particle and genuine actual human person. Making unpopular music for unpopular people since 2001.” Their artist alias and Bandcamp tagline make this worth a click and the music is worth the time. C:/NN/1 by Negative Neutron
