Meital Dohan is sure to go viral in the not so distant future. And not just because her forthcoming video for her new single “Give Us Back Love” is incredibly raunchy (and fun). No, Meital is sure to get people’s attention for the simple fact that “Give Us Back Love” is one of the catchiest,…

Metals are a duo formed in Melbourne consisting of producer/DJs Chris Coe and Ehsan Gelsi. They recently completed a summer UK tour with gigs throughout the country, including Nottingham, Coventry and London. Oh, and they also played a little festival called Glastonbury — maybe you’ve heard of it? Metals’ new single, “That Ain’t Real Love,” is from their…

NOTE: The videos posted with this review are NOT safe for work. We repeat, NSFW. Goldfrapp’s 2010 album Head First found them doing retro synth pop and it was a catchy delight, but I’ve always preferred their more organic records, namely their 2000 debut, Felt Mountain, and 2008’s Seventh Tree. I’m pleased to say that…

Lovely folk with a dash of pop from the daughter of the late actor John Ritter.

Back in April I reviewed Spanish singer/songwriter Virginia Labuat’s English-language debut, Night & Day, and the review couldn’t have been more positive. Sometimes when I read reviews I’ve written some months later, I’ll find myself thinking that I poured it on a bit too thickly, that I perhaps gave too much praise, thus coming across…

Los Angeles native Gavin Turek’s new E.P. might be entitled the “break-up tape.” but she is likely to break *out* in the not so distant future. And it would be about time, as she’s been working on various projects for a few years now. If you’re one of the cool kids then you’ve probably even…

Interview by Michael McCarthy Earlier this week, we brought you an exclusive interview with Dean Garcia of SPC ECO. As a former member of the renowned electro-duo Curve, we knew Dean would have a wealth of information to share and we were dying to learn more about his new project, SPC ECO. To that end,…

Ugly Bunny is a super synthy, sun-kissed electro-pop duo from Sacramento, California. Its members are 17 year old vocalist/keyboardist Gwendolyn Giles and 16 year old producer/vocalist/keyboardist/guitarist Camryn Nichols. (Yes, they’re still in high school.) The two formed their musical partnership during the summer of 2012 after Gwendolyn had just returned home from touring Europe with…

AlunaGeorge are a British duo comprised of Aluna Francis (vocals and songwriting) and George Reid (production and instrumentation), who’ve made it well-known that their wide array of influences range from Mariah Carey to Radiohead to Destiny’s Child to The Knife. Not that they needed to tell us that, as they proudly wear their influences on…

Kitten’s charming frontwoman Chloe Chaidez grew up in a musical household. Her father was a drummer from LA’s early punk scene and he introduced her to artists like David Bowie, Led Zeppelin and Mott The Hoople during their long drives to her gymnastics classes when she was just a kid. They spent an hour and…

Halcyon Days is an expanded — or reloaded — version of Ellie’s album Halcyon featuring ten new tracks. And, honestly, every song is wonderful, so they could have just released it as a new album instead of tacking it onto Halcyon. I’m really curious as to why they didn’t do that. I’ve never really understood…

Sophie Maurin is a new French pop singer/songwriter who seems to be taking France by storm, or at least that’s the impression I’ve gotten from the things I’ve read about her online. Regardless, her music is amazing. And the artists I’d most compare her to aren’t even French artists, actually. Her style of whimsical songwriting…
