Of Montreal - Paralytic Stalks
Always shape-shifting evolving and everyone's favorite 'I liked their Cherry Peel sound better' band, Of Montreal gets a little more soulful, spiritual, proggy, and cinematic, if that is possible at all. Expanding from False Priest, Paralytic Stalks is even more everything-at-once unexaminable alternate universe no-holds-bar golden years stream of pop and fun.

Reggae Reflections The Best of 2011 |
by: Jarret Lovell
Reggae, dancehall and dub music has always been a blend of old and new. Built on a foundation of mento which itself is a “creolized fusion” of European- and African-derived music, the early sound of reggae also borrowed heavily from American R&B. Indeed, some of Kingston’s early sound system selectors (i.e., mobile deejays) would return from trips to the United States with much sought out 45 records, hoping to have an exclusive on the song. They would blast the 45s on their sound system so tha...

Spotlight on Dmitriy host of "Countdown UCI" |
by: Barbara DeMarco-Barrett
A talk with Dmitriy, public affairs host of "Countdown UCI,” airing every Friday at 4:00 pm Pacific time.
Tell me about your show and how it came about.
“Countdown UCI” was a product of the weekly abundance of news at UC Irvine and my frustration over the fact that there was a paucity of campus media covering it. Even at UCI’s very own radio station, the airwaves were silent of the ups and downs of campus life. I felt that I could fill this void, and tell not only stude...

Why There's
No Money in My 401(k)
A Diary of Obsessive Materialism (Vol. 6) |
by Kyle Olson
In an effort to fulfill some bizarre
need in my life, I purchase a lot of CDs, both old and new. They are
obsessively cataloged and organized and poured over track by track (Seriously,
it's obsessive. It involves post-it notes and code and excel spreadsheets).
It is truly a labor of love (and an unhealthy psychological imperative).
But, since I am consuming so much music, I thought I could use this constant
influx for the powers of good. Should I come across anything worth sharing
(either a new release or an old favorite), I will share them with you.
So you'll love me.
Mi Ami — Steal Your Face (Thrill Jockey)
There is a lot of really shitty music. The entertainment industry is full of incredibly bland, boring, trite, un-energetic, passionless crap. And there's stuff like San Francisco trio Mi Ami, who work themselves into a lather laying down visceral junkyard dance...
