Jamie xx – Gosh (Video)
No, it’s not the newest single from Brother Ali…But it is some sort of albino dystopia being depicted in the Romain Gavras directed video clip for “Gosh”, the basss-droppin’-est track from Jamie xx’s ‘In Colour’ LP! ‘In Colour’, the second LP from the DJ, producer, and xx bandmember, has been[…]
Kanye West – Fade (Video)
I kind of fronted on Kanye West’s most recent album ‘The Life of Pablo’. Maybe it was all the Gospel inspired tracks I heard the one time I tried to listen to it? Maybe it was the fact that he pulled a George Lucas with it and hasn’t offered a[…]

The Avalanches – Subways (Video)
In the animated video for their House-y new single Australian beatmakers The Avalanches want to take you for a trip. A trip on the “Subways” that is. If the graffiti-inspired imagery in the video is any indication that title is apparently some kind of metaphor for “doin’ it”. “Subways” is from The[…]
