If you’ve not yet heard producer/artist/DJ REZZ’s music, today is the day. Her work is unlike anything you’ve ever heard, or likely ever will. Simultaneously introspective yet emotive, REZZ’s midtempo cinematic bass music ranges from hypnotic minimal tech to dark industrial, but mostly lives in the realm of the unexplored. Her live shows carry the […]
Alex Gaskarth, lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist for pop-punk band All Time Low, says the group’s new album, Everyone’s Talking, out October 17, was inspired by the 20th anniversary shows they were playing in 2024. “There was such an outpouring of love and support from the fans, and that invigorated us to start writing new […]
Name Anton Newcombe Current City I live in Berlin and have my studio [there]. Really want to be in I’m one of those people that looks at property listings in Sweden and Norway on the ocean or lakes and thinks, “I could afford this…I don’t need people.” Excited about I’m excited to finish our tour; Canada, U.S.A., Mexico, then South […]
The city of Golden Sands may not actually exist, but it still has a weird and wonderful TV station. Programme 4 broadcasts commercials for local restaurants like Ramon’s Venetian Room (with new pleather-bound menus) and local businesses like Browner Carpeting (check out their floor-to-ceiling garage shag).

In fact, the guy who runs the studio, Nick [Tveitbakk], said that never happened in 15 years,” John Pelant explained, while sitting on a lawn chair from the safety of his […]
On one of the U.S. tours to support the album Alien Lanes, Guided By Voices, for whom I played bass guitar at that time, did a show at a club in Los Angeles called Spaceland. It was so new it didn’t even have a stage. The P.A. system was not top flight, either, which is […]
Freak On A Leash, named after the band’s 1998 hit song, features dog and cat clothing, toys, leashes, and collars, with designs by Jonathan’s stylist and friend Ashton Michael.

The 2018 film Bohemian Rhapsody had a profound effect on Buddy Red, who was 18 years old when the Oscar-winning Queen biopic came out. “Once I saw the movie, it’s like a lightbulb just flickered on in my mind. I said, ‘This is what I’m looking for,’” the shy, soft-spoken Red recalls on a day […]
