I caught this on Dangerous Minds this weekend and wasted no time in watching it. It’s an interesting, and sometimes hard to understand (heavy heavy accents) peek into this Northern British music subculture in the ’70s, known as Northern Soul, which centered around obscure American Soul. For those in Philly who attend the ongoing Turnaround/Immediate/Ten Commandments parties, this was where it all started.
Read about it from first hand experience on In Dangerous Rhythm.

American figure skater Scott Williams doesn’t go for the gold…he goes for the grunge…as he figure skates to Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit”. In the immortal words of the brilliant and beautiful Atousa Farahani…this is “Punk as fuck.”

I am a huge fan of music documentaries and this one looks like it’s going to be a great one! Not only is the music of Sly Stone inspiring but so is his attitude (then and now). One of the highlights of the above trailer comes at 1:35 when Sly shares his thoughts on sampling. Love it!
No official release date has been set for the film, but hopefully it will be this year…

For those who are drawn to the cold wave/minimalist synth-pop sound (like me), this new Captured Tracks band Cosmetics is for you. “Soft Skin”, from their latest 7″, is both brooding and ethereal…

Check out this exclusive video from Wired where “The Knife’s Olof and Karin Dreijer conduct an illuminating round-table discussion with Rostron and Sims (who are more famously known as Planningtorock and Mt.

Goddamn, I love this band!
