• People Under The Stairs, Neumos, 9/12

    Written By: Josh Aubin Hip-hop has been evolving quickly over the years. The beats, the icons, the matter at hand; it’s all been changing right before our eyes in such subtle ways it can get hard to notice until you step back and look at the grand scheme of it all.

  • Bumbershoot Picks for Saturday

    Written By: Josh Aubin Saturday is the kickoff of Bumbershoot, and it looks like it will be in a simple word, amazing.

  • Social Media’s Effect on How We Receive Music

    Written by @KenoComberbun Right now I’m torn between Artists’ Twitters, Facebooks and Blogs having a negative or positive impact on how we are alerted to new music. In the past we’d read magazines in order to find out when new music was released, local hustlers would show up in barber shops or in front of schools with the latest bootlegs of new music samples.
