Quickie: Parallels – Ultralight

As soon as I heard that Cam Findlay (former Crystal Castles drummer) was half the synthie-delicious Parallels, I had an inkling I’d like it. And if the video for Ultralight is any inclination, then WOW.  Holly Dodson (half #2) really does sound like Madonna and Kylie.  With that voice, neck-breaking beats and enough Moog action [...]

What’s Black and White, and smoooooooooooooooth all over?

Penguin Prison, of course.  Born in Manhattan as Chris Glover, and spending time in choir class with Alicia Keys, the Pris has clearly had the fire in his belly for a long time.  And after a steady diet of school lunches and Michael Jackson it’s no wonder that the final product is ridiculously danceable and [...]

DJ Bling’s at it again…

DJ Bling, mashup, electro and all around bad-ass DJ and Urban Expedition Project heavy, is a for sure fav over here at the LOUSPEARKRz.. And he’s been at it again in 2010 in a big big way.  Today marks the third installment of his weekly (?!) minimix series.  And they’re hot.  The last one, from [...]

Review: Bloc Party – Ares (Villains Remix)

What do you get when a new Bloc Party album drops?  A new Bloc Party Remix album.  Worst. joke. ever.  In fact, it wasn’t even really a joke.  Whatever.  Anyway, the full album remix tradition was kept alive last week, when Intimacy Remixed dropped.  The album’s got some serious gems, I might even say it’s [...]

Review: MGMT – Time To Pretend [EP]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – music comes to you when it’s ready. So as I was frantically trying to clear out my emusic credits today before the counter reset, I came across MGMTs pre-Oracular Spectacular EP. The Time To Pretend EP is pretty damn awesome. I’m almost glad I found [...]

I Was There: The Golden Filter + The Presets – 04.10.09

Denver never gets the love.  Well, mostly it’s the US in general, cut off by crappy concert-promoting douchecanoes from all of the great dance music coming out of Europe and Australia.  Now, we all know that I’ve got a special place for Modular Records, but this time they were just the catalyst not the endgame.  [...]

Review: Sleeps in Oysters – We Kept the Memories Locked Away…

For such a long album name (We Kept the Memories Locked Away Like the Beetles of Our Childhood – or – How to Appreciate Someone That is Always Around), this is just a 6 song little nugget of pretty harmonies and spoken word, glitches and other odd noises, combined with traditional acoustic elements.  The songs sound [...]

I Made a Mixtape: Get Uptight

Like Nic said, we’ve got a pretty dope thing going here with the Denver Music Club.  Come to think of it, I wouldn’t even know her, and neither would all of you, if it wasn’t for Music Club.  Tonight is our first meeting of the year…so eat your heart out 2008.  Cuz 2009′s gonna be [...]

I’M IN LOVE: THE CHAIN GANG OF 1974

As Dan breifly pointed out a while back, we had the opportunity of seeing The Chain Gang of 1974 at the Marquis and Tracey and I fell hard for Kamtin Mohager. Yes there were way too many teenagers (and their parents!) at this show, but seeing TCGO’74 live was worth it. This guy is smoking hot, [...]

Russ Chimes, You Are Melting My Face Off

And I thought I was in love with Lykke Li. Don’t mistake, I still am. But, dude, now I have a man-crush too?! Maybe I’m just a a big whore… Let’s pick up this debate later. The point here is that I’ve picked up everything Russ Chimes related that I can over the past 24 [...]
