Today, I have for you all an interview with Crumps, conducted over email. Making interesting sounds in his studio and turning them into dark bangers, Crumps is definitely one to watch. Get to know Crumps on Facebook, Twitter, and Soundcloud. —– FWP: Tell us a little bit about...
Perfectos – The End Of The World (Again)
posted by Alexander Klausner
If you want to be overly simplistic about things, there are two ideologies in today’s world of independent rock music: There is the camp that thinks the best way to catch ears is by creating a unique sound as an artist using every experimental trick in the book. Then there’s the camp that thinks all you need is a good, catchy song. That’s where Brenton Stanley, vocalist and guitarist of The Perfectos, falls. Sure, he’s got organs and pianos backing his traditional rock three-piece foundation, but that’s where the bells and whistles end. The Perfectos’ new seven-song EP, “The End Of The World...

An Interview With xKore
posted by GPS
Have I got a treat for you bassheads this lovely evening! A couple of months ago, I had the pleasure of meeting xKore (see our first post on him here). In the weeks following, he had his first shows in the States, including a show with Figure, as well as playing Dancegiving Music Festival.

My name is xKore and I make dubstep, drumstep, moombahton, electro, and basically all things bass music. I’ve been producing for around four years, started...

Claude VonStroke is the man. If you don’t know who he is, geez, I’m sorry bro. From the great city of Detroit, Claude, or as his mother named him Barclay Crenshaw, wanted to be a film maker. That didn’t work out, so instead he got all up in tech house and founded Dirty Bird...

Beats Antique are not your typical band, and they’re not your typical DJs, and they’re not your typical dance troupe, although you could argue they belong to each of those categories. They don’t make world music, and they don’t make dubstep, and they don’t make...

Big Gigantic, the fearsome twosome from Boulder, Colo., was one of my favorite performances at this year’s Hangout Music Fest. These guys are making some of the sexiest, shoulder-jerkinest sax-step on the scene, and their live shows are consistently something to talk about for...
