If you missed it last month, we premiered the lead single from chameleonic Brooklyn artist Brook Pridemore – they’ve been around the block a few times and seen a lot of shit; hence, the title of their new album, Glad …

Meet Brook Pridemore. If you know them, you don’t know them like their new record. It’s out later in the year, it’s called Glad to Be Alive and it’s the next chapter in the storied career of someone last seen diving into metal on last year’s Trve Grind EP.

Buoyed by a collaborative approach that’s recently seen them work with the likes of Nico Muhly, Sorcha Richardson and Wild Pink (all of whom popped up on last December’s In This House EP), …

You’d do well to get on board with Brooklyn trio Endearments at this early stage of their career. They tapped Abe Seiferth to mix the song we’re premiering today. He’s worked with Nation of Language so knows a thing or two about the up-and-comers when it comes to Brooklyn synth-pop. ‘Too Late’ is the band’s …

As introductions go, this is pretty special: no room for clutter, richly melodic, teetering on the verge of explosion to leave the listener wanting more. More is exactly what you’ll get in a few months, but we’re getting ahead of ourselves. Say hello to A.M. Boys. They’ve been together 8 years and their second album …

Sounding like a fully realised trip back in time, the debut single from Curtis Godino Presents the Midnight Wishers introduces listeners to the trio under the stewardship of Godino, as they aim to recreate the feeling of 1960s girl groups with an appropriately psychedelic spin. We’re offering you the first listen of the dreamy ‘No …

There’s a line in the press release that describes this song as ‘the most fun panic attack you’ll ever have’ and sure enough, ‘No Vision’, the debut single from Brooklynite artist and producer Jack Ladd under the guise of Guy Blue sounds like he’s on the verge of losing his shit.

LCD Soundsystem at Brooklyn Steel
GalleryLive ReviewMusic

As a native New Yorker, I have a really embarrassing confession to make – I had never seen LCD Soundsystem live before. Kinda sad, right? But, thanks to their 20-night residency at Brooklyn Steel, spanning from late November to mid-December, I was finally able to correct that. It’s not like I haven’t been a fan …
