Nee - Pretty Girls


Née is the dance squad at the cool kid magnet school. It is vintage synthesizers and ricocheting drums and poses. Mostly it is Kristin Dennis, who is surprisingly effective at making you feel bad for not dancing. The band emanates from her in every way. If you think bad-times subject matter precludes good-times songs, you obviously aren’t much into songs. The pop music created by Dennis, Synth player Lex Herbert, multi-talented multi-instrumentalist David Beeman and tireless drummer Mic Boshans can make you forget, for a moment, that there is such a thing as tomorrow.

Keep Shelly in Athens - Our Own Dream

Here’s welcoming Grecian downbeat duo Keep Shelly In Athens to Create Spark. Watch their supernatural video for ‘Our Own Dream’ "Create Spark"

Zambri – “Hundred Hearts” (Dir. Milton Ladd)

A mysterious piece of street art causes onlookers to stop and stare, mesmerized, and then to furiously make out with each other. At first, I was hoping the video wouldn’t show the artwork in question, just to keep the mystery alive. But when it’s revealed, the art is suitably freaky, "StereoGum"

Lana Del Rey - Goodbye Kiss in the Radio 1 Live Lounge



Recently, Lana Del Rey recorded a session for BBC Radio’s Live Lounge. Those sessions always include covers, and for hers, LDR took on “Goodbye Kiss,” a song from the inexplicably-still-popular Brit-rock band Kasabian. I like her version better. "StereoGum"
