Hey y’all! We just checked into our hotel in Gulf Shores, Ala., and there are sex mirrors in this room! Anyway, it looks like this weekend is going to be pretty cool. But in case you’re not here to see it in person, make sure you catch the live-stream on MySpace, with performances...
FWP’s Must-See...

Imagine yourself at the beach. Blue skies, nice sea breeze, salty air, scantily-clad young people. Pretty nice, right? Now, imagine someone shuts down the nearest street, surrounding beach storefronts and restaurants, slaps five stages down on that bitch and opens it up to musicians like the...

Andy’s iLL the the fucking man. The Canadian mongerer of all things hard in electronic music dropped his debut EP today on Dim Mak Reacords. This release definitely lives up to his philosophy that “there is nothing that the heart wants more after a build than the best...

Living in the information age, we are allowed to probe the archives of eras past. We have become what some have termed a “collage culture,” scrolling through the annals of history and taking the bits and pieces of what we like to construct an identity. In music, this has presented itself...

Pretty Hot, Nah Mean

Moving to a city like Chicago and making a name for yourself as a DJ is no easy task. To do it in less than a year, have five residencies at some of the best venues, and be booking gigs all across the US; some would call that next to impossible. Well, meet Mr. Impossible....
Death Grips Scream Bloody Rebellion Over Electro-D...
posted by Lesson25
Nothing is subtle about Death Grips. Their sound rips right out of the gates and grabs you. It challenges you. It gets in your face and says “Here I am. What are you gonna do about it, bitch?” If there’s anywhere the techno-hip-hop trio succeeds, it’s in getting people’s attention. How could they not? There’s no middle ground in this sound. It’s fiery, bold, psychotic, freewheeling and divisive. The YouTube comments for “The Fever (Aye Aye)” feature some of our favorite fan reactions to Death Grip’s massive aural assault. “what the fuck is this!!!” says dudekid19. “Im excited, king...

Leroy Peppers is a bad, bad man. He was born in a Cadillac trunk, the by-product of a dirty one-night-stand between hip-hop and techno. His raison d’etre is simple yet so necessary; to make your ass move in ways your momma should never witness. “I just wanted to start making the kind of...
