I’ve featured the beautifully creepy visual stylings of producer/singer Joji a few times in this space over the last year or two. But now it looks like he’s infected a collaborator, San Jose bred Bass music DJ/producer Getter, with his flair for the dark and macabre when it comes to[…]

of Montreal – Plateau Phase/No Careerism No Corruption (Video)
I love all of of Montreal’s music. But there’s always at least one song, if not a handful of them, from every one of their albums that really speaks to me. “Plateau Phase/No Careerism No Corruption” is definitely one of those songs. Yeah, it’s ear-catching with its blend of booming[…]
of Montreal – Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia (Video)
Kevin Barnes continues to evolve his drag looks in the video for of Montreal’s newest two-in-one jam “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia”. “Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia” is the first single from the Athens, Georgia-based Indie-Pop band’s fifteenth studio album ‘White is Relic/Irrealis Mood’ which is out March 9th on Polyvinyl Records. of Montreal
MGMT – Little Dark Age (Video)

And they’ve apparently traded their new age Psychtronica sound and hipster-cum-hippie image in for dark Electro-Funk grooves and Goth style on their new single “Little Dark Age”.

Pictureplane – Hyper Real (Video)
You might know the name of Denver, Colorado-bred musician Pictureplane from production credits for the likes of Sole, Noah23, and Antown, among others. But his new single and video “Hyper Real” should make you remember his name for making gorgeous post-Rap Dance-Pop songs with trippy horror-influenced visual accompaniment informed by[…]
Hot Chip – Huarache Lights (Video)
Speaking of blog favorites Hot Chip, they’ve got a new single and video out called “Huarache Lights”. The song, which gives me a bit of a Jacksons circa “Can You Feel It” vibe, grew on me a lot as I watched the video for the first time. Robot voice always[…]
Stars – From the Night (Video)
For whatever reason it took me forever to get hip to new music from Montreal’s Stars, particularly their single/video “From the Night”. This shit nails the catchy-as-fuck post-DFA Disco-Rock thing 100% and officially qualifies as the anthem for motherfuckers like moi who are almost forty but feel just a little[…]
