The Devine Xperience – “The Answer” – Single/Video Review I, uh….hmm….I’m not really sure what I’m listening to & watching right now…yet… Even one of my favourite electro-only acts, Hot Chip, has a very hard time selling it all to me live with four guys standing around a bunch of electro pads and rooted in […]Read More
Jeff The Brotherhood – Wasted On The Dream – Album Review Sometimes being rooted & entrenched in the independent music-scene can allow mainstream bands and artists to fly wide of my musical-radar.

Cirex – Cosmology – EP Review Back with more music that’s more likely to convince you that every car-alarm in your neighbourhood has gone off at once, rather than your stereo being turned up in full, is Puerto Rico’s own extreme IDM innovator, Cirex. Last time we heard from Eric Ortiz, the mind behind the […]Read More
Anne Steele – What’s Mine – EP Review Don’t get me wrong, weather-wise it would have been a bright & sunny day here in BC no matter what was coming through our speakers today…it’s one of our rare April days without rain it would seem; but I’ll absolutely make the case for the sunshine finding […]Read More
Zane Brune – Fists Of Old Glory – Album Review Is Chicago? Is not Chicago? Someone out there, presumably the man identified as Zane Brune, will get that reference… So here we are again, reviewing music by one of its true avant-garde madmen and one of the hardest working human-beings this side of having a […]Read More
