Fresh off of the heels of her eponymous debut, Maita’s album has received critical and commercial acclaim, reaching the #1 spot on iTunes Latino the week after the album was released. We’re excited to see her perform live in the US! Here are [...]
Semi Precious Weapons is on a roll. The band has spent the last nine months on tour with Lady Gaga and decided that rather than taking a break between the N.A. leg of the tour and the European part, they would hit the road to play their own 13-city “Dirty Showbiz” headlining tour. I got [...]
Tampa country-rock group Roppongi’s Ace have once described themselves as “mustache rock”. The distinction of this genre (real or not) is carried with them to every show they play, their moustaches very real and their rock nostalgically alive. Full-throated wails, thumping bass, and a rawness that could make a hock of beef blush are what crowds and the [...]

Finally got to check out Jelly’s new party, Rock Yard, on Saturday when I went to see The Stationary Set. Heard about these guy through the grapevine and had to check them out. They did not let down. Not to mention that this is probably gonna be my new favorite place to come on Saturdays. [...]
Damn was the last pool party ever (?) off da hook. The people at Jelly couldn’t have ended it any better than with a day of old/nu skool hip-hop. By that I mean DMC, Doug E Fresh, The Cool Kids, Andrew WK and Gucci Mane. Enough said. Check out pics below. enjoY!
Come one come all to what is gonna be an awesome show tonight at The Rock Shop. Adams Castle, who have just finished putting together their new album, Vices, are playing there with Elk City and Animal Hands. If you haven’t heard Castle’s version of instrumental rock yet then I suggest you check out their [...]
Chromeo rocks, that’s all. enjoY! Chromeo – Night By Night (Midnight Conspiracy Remix)
Inception and (500) Days of Summer actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt started the hitRECord project five years ago, which has since evolved into an open collaboration production company. Anyone can join hitRECord, which runs in the form of a social network. It’s not as intuitive as Twitter or Facebook, but after spending the better part of the [...]
Like usual, Me You Us Them put on a great show with so much energy. Its pretty cool to see how the songs from their new album, Post-Data, progress as time goes on. Also shout out to the new Forms who put on an entertaining electronic show. Make sure to check out their new EP, [...]
Neon Indian is performing at Webster Hall tonight in NYC. If you are not in the city that never sleeps, you can stream it online at MTV. enjoY! Neon Indian – Sleep Paralysist
Upon listening to Blitz the Ambassador‘s album, Stereotype, you can almost swear you are listening to a modern rendition of Phil Spector’s “Wall of Sound” method. You are hit with live instruments including a brass section (!); certainly, there are emcees out there that utilize musicians in their albums, but something needs to be said [...]
First time seeing Cut Copy ever and I was not disappointed at all. They had all the kiddes, me included, jumping, dancing around making a sweaty mess with the skyline behind us. They played new and old material, including their new single, “Where I’m Going.” What a fun day indeed. enjoY! Cut Copy – Where [...]
Hot Chip helped us dance the night away. enjoY!
Stellar show by HLA. Hot Chip pics coming up next. enjoY!
Look, she’s wearing kain batik! Photo Credit: @suedanza. Since I came back to NYC from Malaysia this past spring, Zee Avi was the one artist I’ve been dying to see. This woman has quite literally captivated the hearts and minds of all Malaysians and they are mad proud of her achievements. Her story is quite [...]
The rock gods above came down last night to grace us with a mesmerizing/memorable performance from the one an only, The Smashing Pumpkins. Man was this show awesome. The last time I saw them was in 1996 and it was in support of the Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness album-my first concert ever. Fast [...]
Had the pleasure of traveling over to the beautiful Governor’s Island with Michelle on Saturday to check out Hard NYC which included performances by MIA, Skream & Benga, Die Antwoord, Sleigh Bells, Rye Rye, and many more. The day started off bad, but got much better as it went on. This was my first trip [...]
Finally got a chance to check out Quilty when they played at Bruar Falls last week. Their debut album, Clover/Coriander was a personal favorite of mine, so when I heard that they were playing a one-off show in the burg I had to check them out. And as I thought, I wasn’t disappointed at all. [...]
