  • in Music

By Alec Stutson With its offbeat drums and jazzy, middle eastern sounding arpeggios, King Gizzard begins its 10-minute progressive symphony with style and flair.

Crumbling Castle eschews the usually-driving […]

By Ryan Groom Dallas musician Liv.e’s demo “phunkintro” was recently flipped by the hands of LA legend and beat extraordinaire: Mndsgn. As if the original track could get any funkier, the flip features sun-dried e-piano chords and swing-heavy drums, ultimately forming a true throwback to more soulful times. Liv.e stands out among other artists on […]
