interview by Michael McCarthy One of the very first interviews I did for Love is Pop was with Dean Garcia, formerly of Curve, who was promoting his new project SPC ECO, which finds him recording dark and dreamy music with his daughter Rose Berlin on vocals. Since that interview, SPC ECO has released several more…

“Ibifornia” is the title track from Cassius’ first album in ten years, which will be released on June 24th; Ibifornia is an imaginary utopia that they have created on the album with lush, tropical melodies. A place “where the sun rises high and the horses run free,” as the song’s narrator says.

Detroit rapper ZelooperZ — who was born in the 313 and still resides there — is part of Danny Brown’s Bruiser Brigade. Interestingly, they connected via Twitter when the 6’7″ ZelooperZ was promoting a mixtape like crazy and Brown took notice. But before Brown took him into the studio he gave him a proper initiation by…

Diplo doesn’t need help from anyone else to create a mammoth EDM banger, but he’s collaborated with Sleepy Tom here anyway and you can thank your lucky stars that he did because the result is a truly invigorating beast of a song. It also features gorgeous vocals, an interpolation of Jade’s classic “Don’t Walk Away,”…

If you’re getting bored with EDM, well, I really couldn’t blame you. In fact, I am, too. But today we have a two song EP from Ckrono & Slesh, a duo hailing from Florence, Italy, and it’s a stimulating blend of kudoro (something I’d never heard of before), Afro-house, funk, dub and even a bit…

The name Made of Oak might not ring a bell. You may not even recognize the real name of the man who’s so named himself, Nick Sanborn. But if you’re an electronic pop music fan, or just a fan of electronic music in general, then the name of his full-time gig surely will, as it’s…

.And now for something completely different. We have a mix of hip-hop and electronica that’s sure to keep you guessing throughout. It’s unpredictable like that, which is why it’s so awesome. You never know what’s going to happen from one second to the next. But you know one thing from the get go: it’s fresh…

And not just the maturity, that passion and pain both emoted perfectly. But ALXA is not a jazz singer. Not exactly. Likewise, she isn’t a soul or R&B singer, but there are shades…

If you miss the days of ’90’s club music, you’re going to rejoice when you hear this one. Massive, jumpy beats that call to mind old school techno merge with trip-hop percussion on speed; it’s an audible Frankenstein’s monster, comprised of the best bits of so many things that were previously alive, died, and have…

No, it’s not a Bee Gees cover… It’s an original club banger by Calvin Harris featuring Disciples. To be honest, this is the first time I’ve ever heard the Disciples, so I don’t know if the singer simply lent her voice to this track or if there’s a producer in the group — or are…

Is this the same Gregory Porter of the jazz world, who once sang “Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood” with Jamie Cullem? Why, yes — yes, it is… His is not a voice I ever would have ever expected to mesh well with Disclosure’s dubby beats but somehow it works. I know, a jazz singer shouldn’t…
