Today, we continue on in praise of his productions. So what's new in his world? Well, he's been hard at work, mixing, mastering and mashing up a Sky Ferreira x Skeet Skeet Mixtape . While the offering isn't available...

The Beatles began recording of The Beatles only thirteen months after completion of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. In between, The Beatles had released two albums to support film projects ( Magical Mystery Tour and Yellow Submarine ), although the number of new songs on both albums combined totaled only fourteen--essentially, one standard album. Neither of these albums are considered among...

And it is also one of my favorite Beatles songs. Had a pretty chilled out weekend. Finished working on my newest tune which is available to listen to and download via Soundcloud, just follow this link! Have fun with it and tell me what you think, i thrive off of constructive criticism. After finishing that I rewarded myself by eating many more giant Cadburys buttons, then went round my friends house...

The Beatles - The Beatles ( Parlophone 1968, George Martin) Unsurprisingly it took me a little while to get around to writing this review, it is a double album after all, but I've been listening during my last couple of gym sessions and I have to say I'd forgotten how much of a joy The Beatles really is. Coming round to reviewing The White Album I thought this would be long and bloated, I only remembered...

A lot of people will tell you that Ferran Adrià, head chef at El Bulli, is a genius. For what it's worth, I think he probably is, but being a mere mortal myself it's quite a hard call to make. You see, that's the problem with genius - you almost need to be a genius yourself to recognise it in others, at least before the ideas and innovations developed by said genius become mainstream, and until...

As if Phish fans weren’t riled up enough about Festival 8, the quartet has just upped the ante by unveiling a website with 100 album covers of discs the band may potentially play in Indio. The only instructions on the site state “play the last record left alive” which leads us to believe that most of the album covers will be removed in some way in the time leading up to the festival...

Dear Beatles fan, 1. The mono box set is a thing of great, great beauty. Each album has been recreated in CD format, right down to the correct gluing of the sleeves and authentic placing of the spine text. They even come with miniature inner sleeves. 2. If you do buy the mono box set, please be careful with the plastic outer sleeves. See that sticky bit? It's VERY sticky, and you know what happens...

Happiness is a warm gun . On a train, with the Tangerine Dream (do they cover the Beatles') and Rebecca DeMornay. Or something. It's risky to parse big media too closely. Which is true about the bill that allows guns on Amtrak? "allows individuals to bring their guns on trains in a manner similar to that of airlines", or "Before checking the bag or boarding the train , the passenger...
