The EP begins with the [...]

Sweden’s Dragons take of the original couldn’t be more [...]

We just came across this incredible remix by Oliver Rado of Active Child’s ‘Johnny Belinda’ which is a track off his debut album Ýou Are All I See. Oliver Rado is a disco/techno artist from Hamburg who has taken the already slow, yet beautiful original (…listen/watch here…) and transformed it into a more lo-fi, eerie [...]

While being deeply influenced by College and the entire Valérie Collective, it’s always a pleasure to share their news and to spread the word. I could write all morning about the relevance they had/have on my life, and yes, I know I’m getting old. Aren’t we all? Music is something that will stay with us [...]
