A winning formula on paper would be Lana Del Rey singing, with production work by Dan Auerbach from the Black Keys. Often the reality doesn’t match the paper version, but this time thankfully it does. We have our first listen...
Last summer, we gave you the slick beats and production work from UK producer Forest Swords. There is now a video full of wonderful landscapes for the same track, The Weight of Gold. The Weight of Gold is off of...
The Beatles have been in the news a lot lately. Yesterday marked their 50th anniversary from when the Beatles played the Ed Sullivan Theatre, changing the lives of themselves and all future musicians after them. To celebrate, we got a...
More stuff from the youngin’ from the UK known as King Krule. You’ve seen videos from the 19 year old, such as Easy Easy, Octopus, and Rock Bottom. His latest cut from 6 Feet Beneath the Moon is A Lizard...
