  • Why You Should Spin: viagr aboys by Viagra Boys

    Swedish post-punk outfit Viagra Boys already at first glance at their name, is that there is something so cheeky about them. The best things that manifest out of punk or post-punk is that there could be so many ways on criticizing the dumbness that is our world and its men with their art. Frontman Sebastian…

  • Why You Should Spin: Revengeseekerz by Jane Remover

    The cover art is a great descriptor of this album already as Jane Remover pushes the edge forward on how noise and dance music can be implemented. The whole album is fire. Revengeseekerz is a blaze and leaves a trail that marks their spot on the rager map. They have repurposed rager music and EDM…

  • Why You Should Spin: Hit It! by vianova

    This metalcore outfit from Berlin, Germany is made up of brothers and a vocalist that caught my attention since I was combing the metalcore world for sick riffs. What I found in Hit It! was not just the mean riffs and unhinged screaming I was looking for, but unconventional methods used to deliver their metalcore…

  • Why You Should Spin: Let God Sort Em Out by Clipse

    Legendary hip-hop duo, Clipse has made a comeback after a sixteen year hiatus from their previous album. The group is made up of two brothers Pusha T and Malice whom are each talented in their lyrical prowess that it was caught in line of sight of one of the most influential producers, Pharrell Williams. Williams…

  • Why You Should Spin: Rammana by Salin

    A girl in Bangkok, Thailand named Salin Cheewapansri, had such a strong affinity to music that she would dip her toes into drums after being entranced into grunge music. Later, Salin would do many gigs in the streets and in the studio and then would move into the States and eventually in Montreal, Canada where…

  • Why You Should Spin: Animatronics by Rolando Simmons

    An electronic artist hailing from Sweden, Mattias Östling who goes under the moniker of Rolando Simmons, has caught my ears when entering the mystifying world of IDM. And in this subgenre being so broad and boundary pushing, the cerebral experience he provides here in Animatronics is such a treat for any voyeurs in experimental electronic…

  • Why You Should Spin: Bleeds by Wednesday

    I first heard about this band from North Carolina through the Brooklyn Vegan blog and saw this quirky and somber album cover that looks like it’s from Where the Wild Things Are. The creature on the cover looked like they needed a hug, so I wanted to give them a listen! Wednesday has been around…

  • Song of the Day: Supersonic by J.J. Fad

    A blast from the past. J.J. Fad was formerly an acronym of all the past members of this all female ,80s hip-hop group, but when they changed members it turned into fun descriptors of the them as they laid it out for you at the beginning of the song. “J is for Just. The other…

  • Why You Should Spin: Loner by Barry Can’t Swim

    I first heard about this electronic Scottish producer and at the same time, entranced after listening to his track “Sonder”, from his debut album, When Will We Land? It was such a beautiful house cut with these lovely piano melodies, a nostalgic saxophone segment, and African vocals. It made the track breathe and is very…

  • Why You Should Spin: Phonetics On and On by Horsegirl

    If being carefree has manifested in sonic form, then this album would be it. It came out last February on Valentine’s Day. A coincidence on the release day? I like to think not, since they do talk about love. On that note, there is much to love on here with its sunny disposition and charm.…
