Video: Archie Pelago – Subway Gothic

On February 1, 2013

We’re excited to see what all the Brooklyn trio (cellist, saxophonist, trumpeter/DJ) Archie Pelago comes up with this year—if their Bubblin’ Up profile for XLR8R is any indication, it will be a lot. The group’s first release “Subway Gothic” b/w “Ladymarkers” is out later this month on Well Rounded (who are having a [...]

Stream/Watch: Four Tet Live Boiler Room Session

On October 11, 2012

Usually, we’re not ones to go praising the likes of folks you should already know, and/or probably are used to endlessly hearing about, such as the inimitable electronic music living legend that is Four Tet. Still, just in case you happened to miss this go down live on the world-wide webs yesterday, [...]

Video: Claps – Glory, Glory

On September 14, 2012

The Moon Glyph label is one of Oakland’s most recent transplants, bringing a needed dose of dense synth-scape wizardry and twisted, Kraut-informed pop to our West Coast city. Earlier today a video for “Glory, Glory”—the title track  from the Minneapolis-based outfit Claps’ cassette for the imprint—appeared, serving as a fitting introduction of the [...]

Video: XXYYXX – About You

On May 30, 2012

Aside from the novelty of his age—the dood is only 16—XXYYXX is one damn fine producer, responsible for more than his share of heat over the past few months. “About You,” serves as further proof of this young gun’s exceptional talents, with a pretty awesomely dramatic video to back it up. (via

Video: Teengirl Fantasy – Motif

On May 23, 2012

Teengirl Fantasy has announced plans for a forthcoming 12″ on the virtually unparalleled R&S imprint, and judging by “Motif,” the first track to preview the upcoming release, this is very good news. The 12″ (dropping June 25) will also come with another original tune on its flipside and a rework by master producer

Video: Bam Spacey – Taigan

On May 14, 2012

Brooklyn’s fledging Ceremony imprint is just a week away from dropping a new record from Swedish producer Bam Spacey and has shared this shamelessly milky video for “Taigan,” an absolutely stunning track from the forthcoming Land EP. Between the gorgeous cascading bell melody and lush synths, Spacey fits just the right touch [...]

Video: Elephant & Castle – En Memoria

On February 24, 2012

Elephant & Castle, one of Oakland’s most prolific producers and a name which consistently finds its way to our pages, is set to drop his debut LP, Transitions, next month on Plug Research. A while back, we shared the impressively dense “En Memoria” (which happens to feature a vocal performance [...]

Video: Colo – Picture of You

On February 23, 2012

Yesterday, XLR8R premiered the video for “Picture of You,” the lead track from Colo’s forthcoming Midday Sun EP. Aside from the George FitzGerald remix of the London pair we got introduced to a few weeks back, “Picture of You” serves as the first real taste of what we [...]

Mapzzz x Signal Flow Present Sharkbite Sessions – Forest Floor

On February 16, 2012

For the second edition in our ongoing video series, we have captured two stirring performances from Forest Floor, an Oakland musician concerned with exploring the pockets where experimental pop meets the darker shades of folk and masses of glistening noise. Forest Floor—who, we should say, is also responsible for the [...]
