Bulgarian singer-songwriter Ruth Koleva’s “I Don’t Know Why” hails from her just-announced sophomore album, Confidence. Truth, which is scheduled for release on 3/30. It’s an excellent example of what can happen when jazz and pop are blended into something that defies the unwritten rules of both genres.

Kylie Minogue, Princess of Pop, is baaaaaacK (with a capital K for Kylie)! On her new single, “Dancing,” she does what she does best: she dances and she sings about doing precisely that. (How joyous!)

Welcome back, Lily Allen. It’s been a while. Well, OK, maybe only four years, but that’s a long time. A woman could have four babies during that amount of time.

If you like twisted, noir electro-pop then you’re going to be drooling all over yourself listening to Laure Shang’s richly-layered new single, which is surely the bleakest-sounding song called “I Love You” ever written. It’s also my favorite song to be released so far from her next album. (They just keep getting better and better,…

This Friday, January 12, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club will be releasing their new album Wrong Creatures, which is their “journey throughout rock’s history, taking unlikely twists and turns, both peppered with historic influences but also having one foot firmly in the present.”

The thing that makes Laure Shang one of my favorite Chinese artists is that you never know what she’s going to do next. You really don’t. In fact, I dare say she’s one of the most unpredictable artists on the planet, which, for me, also makes her one of the most fascinating artists, too. At some…

Today the legendary Amanda Palmer unleashed the above cover of Pink Floyd’s “Mother” and it’s haunting us already. She came up with the moving arrangement with her composer friend Jherek Bischoff and it’s every bit as emotional as Pink Floyd’s original. I know that’s saying a lot, but if you’re listening to it right now…

If you’ll allow me to pat myself on the back for a moment, I’d like to point out that Love is Pop was one of the very first sites to post Sigrid’s “Don’t Kill My Vibe,” which wound up being one of the biggest pop songs of the decade. So, now I’m here to tell…

The song is called “The Game Has Changed” and starts off with some funkilicous bass then bursts into action with a highly caffeinated amount of energy

So, this is what happens when Laure Shang goes punk rock? She comes out with an edgy, guitar-driven track that erupts with four on the floor energy as soon as you hit play. It’s called “The One That Ran Away” and it finds Laure in a bit of a spiteful mood, wondering what the hell…

interview by Michael McCarthy Several years ago, Megan Davies opened a Youtube account and posted a video of herself doing an experimental, classical guitar piece. It didn’t get many streams, but she kept the account open and eventually started posting other things. Those things being actual songs. Most of them were covers. Some of them…

Just earlier this week I found myself wondering whatever happened to Fischerspooner. They were one of my favorite electronic music duos several years ago but they’ve been absent from the scene for quite a while now. Well, it turns out they’ve been cooking up something good, which we’re getting our first taste of today with…
