With interview and performance snippets, United Ghosts discuss their impending UK tour, the creative process, the new CD and more. And check out "Echo Lake", also heard here on DKFM! The self-titled album is in pre-order now, but can be found at their shows for a nominal fee, if you smile really nicely. The cover was designed by Shaun Durkan (from the band Weekend), and has a watery, gauzy feel, […]
Released March 12 on their own Renovo label, Mahogany drops the video for their first single in years. What should you expect? Swirls, samples, sparkles, trains, intersecting lines and circles, ballet, cello, harpsichord(!) ...and fully one-third is sung in French. Again, Andrew Prinz breaks all the rules by dropping eight minutes and calling it a 'single'. But when it comes to Mahogany, would you really have it any other way? […]

Denmark's The Foreign Resort have grabbed legendary producer John Fryer (Cocteau Twins, Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode) to produce and mix their forthcoming album. Set to record beginning March 15th in Copenhagen, The Foreign Resort look to sharpen and reshape their sound for the next release, and John Fryer's long and successful history will likely bring them a whole new level of notoriety. They've put together a teaser trailer to […]
A car wreck of epic proportions. Pitting NIN's Trent Reznor against Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe". Some call it heresy. But when it gets right down to it, it sure is a lovely, hopeful teen anthem, innit? pomDeterrific cobbled this idea together from an idea posted on Reddit, and the rest... goes viral. For when you like your mashups with extra irony.
The Bandcamp fund set up to help defray medical expenses for Danny Lackey, the recently departed co-founder of the venerable "When the Sun Hits" blog, has an incredible number of standout tracks. With contributions from established veterans and newcomers alike, a number of these tracks have found their way into our rotation, and we've been promoting the charitable effort on air and online. Perhaps the most fitting tribute was penned, […]
Three new Decades tracks in rotation, this is surely one of our favorites. We expect it to get all sorts of crossover love, as it has that kind of appeal. Catchy hooks laid over droning guitar, topped with breathy vox. Catch them on DKFM, with full LP release on April 30th from White Girl Records. Catch up with Toronto's Decades on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/decadesWGR Twitter: http://twitter.com/decadesdecades At their website: http://decadesdecades.com And […]
"We've got glassware / for every season." About a minute into the opening track "Showering with Wine", Sunshine lets you know you're in for something different, better, special. Bright, beautiful, irreverent, unconstrained by musical dogma, the new self-titled LP from Sunshine drops a fat slab of... well, sunshine into your lap and DARES you to dislike it. Hint: you can't. Hazy, sunny guitars and bright but breathy vocals and sparkling […]
