While I believe music and comedy don’t really mesh–many times the result is just tacky or moronic, there are some folks that prove music with a comedy twist can make a really nice and quality duo. When I accidentally came across British musician and comedian Rainer Hersch (thanks to my YT recommendations) and listened […]

Even though I’m not the kind of person who’s always on the lookout for new music and new artists, there are times where I accidentally stumble across new hidden gems that eventually grow on me and I feel proud of myself. Something like this happened when I searched for “ocean blues” and the artist “Oceanator” […]
When it comes to my taste in rock music, I’m all about vinyl classics or totally spicy and alternative tracks–nothing in-between and nothing too hard or pretentious. And Alice Cooper certainly never disappoints (at least thus far) when it gets to offering rock fans a mixture of classic 70s and 80s rock with a twist. […]
I recently had a guitar repaired* and when I got it back the first thing I did was blast out the opening to this song. I don’t know why but at some point it became my go to riff. I guess I got comfortable playing it and just settle into easily, but I haven’t picked […]
From the very first second of The Gaslight Anthem’s ‘The ‘59 Sound’, it’s clear that they’re harking back to a bygone era. As soon as you press play, the familiar sound of a needle hitting a vinyl record plays for a few seconds before the opening track – ‘Great Expectations’ – springs into action. The […]
Many people will tell you that the greatest punk bands burned out or faded away in the 20th Century, and that more contemporary bands within the genre have little to offer. That couldn’t be further from the truth. In 2009, a band from the outskirts of London released one of the greatest punk records of […]
The first time I heard Tash Sultana was on Youtube – her live bedroom session – and I couldnt believe what is happening! A solo artist, translucidely connecting to music, and me being able to feel it in my own small bedroom. Years have passed, I continued to listen to her music and eventually went […]
. I feel that music has a lot in common with the art of painting – it creates an image, an explosion of colors, feelings and visions in our minds without us even noticing. “Enero” is an exhibition of emotions and sensations that float heavy, yet free in an underwater gallery of the Universe of […]
I feel that music is this neverending space where anything can happen, where everything is welcome and can be experimented. This was what I thought after listening to “Close to Paradise” by Soulwax (in collaboration with Michel Gaubert and LOEWE). The track uses interviews (which are added seperately to the album) with travelers and hippies […]
After spending a year and a half in Argentina I discovered many small bands from South America. Those types of bands I would never have discovered without living there and meeting people who create and share what they love. Agua Oscura (meaning “dark water” in English) is one of those bands. The first album […]
Would you blindly take the leap without knowing when and how you might land? A question the Rocky VanDoa band members found themselves contemplating, while writing their hit song, ‘Lover’s Leap’. Although the duo, already best friends, had spent the last few years performing together, neither one of them knew what an incredible journey they were […]
Seeing art imerge and interchange between one another is something that makes me feel that everything is continuously connected. Art is made to influence, to inspire and to move the idea of creating forward. This is what came to my mind when listening to “Laputa” – a song by Hiatus Kaiyote from the album “Choose […]
There’s a long historic tradition of purely vocal music, beat boxing, choirs, the recent resurgence of sea shanty’s, babershop – after all beside maybe percussion the voice is the one instrument we’ve always had. But who are we kidding, amongst all this, the most recent love of a cappella music is firmly routed in that […]

“Get off the Road, Toad” For Mike Cloninger Featured Song: 50 Ways to Leave Your Lover by Paul Simon It was the summer of 1973, and I was 8 years old. My family was once again traveling from our home near Asheville, NC, to Cocoa Beach, FL for another episode of the annual Coninger family vacation. There we would […]
