Bradford Cox
Watch: Bradford Cox Interview at Primavera Sound
Jun 11, 2018
Any and every Bradford Cox interview must be seen…‘nuff said. Deerhiunter just played Primavera Sound in Barcelona and Bradford chatted for a few with Johann Wald…I guess he really likes the festival.
Ólafur Arnalds
Watch: Ólafur Arnalds ft. SOHN “Unfold” Video
Jun 09, 2018
Take in the video for the gorgeous new track from Icelandic composer and producer Ólafur Arnalds featuring English singer-producer SOHN. “Unfold” is the second single from Ólafur’s upcoming album re:member, out August 24th, following the title track. I guess they call they classical crossover. It’s liberating.
‘This is my breaking-out-of-the-shell album. It’s me taking the raw influences that I have from all these different musical genres and not filtering them. I really hope you will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it.’
Tennyson
Watch: Tennyson Live In-Studio Performance of “Uh-Oh” w Miguel Atwood-Ferguson Band
Jun 07, 2018
Tennyson has shared a live in-studio performance with Miguel Atwood-Ferguson and his band of the title track to last year’s Uh oh! EP. The song was performed at Valentine Studios in LA. In the words of Noho Hank from HBO’s Barry…It’s just nice.
Some background on Valentine Studios: Valentine Studios was founded in 1963 by former Capitol Records engineer Jimmy Valentine after he purchased and converted an old dentist office into a recording space. The space became a legendary recording studio and went on to produce records from The Beach Boys, Frank Zappa, Jackson Brown and more. As his auto parts business next door began earning more business, Jimmy decided to phase out the studio in 1979. Now almost 40 years after closing, the studio has re-opened and been brought back to life for a modern music landscape while retaining the look and feel of a classic music studio.
