King Krule is one of the most interesting artists going around at the moment. Interesting because it is impossible to pin his music down stylistically.

Marshall has just released his second studio album […]

Alexis Taylor – The Tuning Fork October 18, 2017

Alexis Taylor’s Piano album came out in June last year — a beautiful, intimate record, pared back to the bare bones with just his voice and the piano. I’d only caught up on this in recent weeks when I heard he was coming to do a show, and as a huge Hot Chip fan, had […]

Genre hopping changeling Beck has just released his new album Colors to the masses. Jointly produced with the Grammy Award winning Greg Kurstin, whose recent works involve such high-profile artists as Adele, Foo Fighters and most recently, Liam Gallagher.

Kitty, Daisy & Lewis: The 13th Floor Interview

Kitty, Daisy & Lewis just released their fourth album, Superscope, a couple of weeks ago. When the three siblings began making records, almost a decade ago, they were known for their retro attitude. That attitude remains, although the scope of their music has expanded over the years. The 13th Floor’s Marty Duda spoke to Kitty, […]

Robin Shultz – Uncovered (Warners)

German born musician and producer Robin Schulz likes to mix homemade guitar riffs and samples with a palette of colors from regular the DJ’s toolkit.  Like many in his line of work, collaboration and remixing is key to a successful output.  For many, it’s a challenge to bring EDM into the mainstream without getting to […]

After wrenching herself from Disney’s comically oversized clutches, she has spent the remainder of her discography figuring out her musical identity. The most prolific of these experiments were 2013’s aptly named Bangerz followed by 2015’s baffling stoner pop record Miley Cyrus & […]
