Ever since Tyler, The Creator debuted his self directed music video for “Yonkers” back in 2012, he’s shown that he can be one of the best in front of (and behind) the camera. His ridiculous videos for tracks like “She,” “Rella,” “OKRA,” and “Who Dat Boy” have all been seriously impressive as well, so it’s fair to say that we’re excited for any new video drop by Tyler.Today, Tyler dropped another self directed video of one of the best tracks off of his 2017 album Flower Boy, “See You Again.” He again comes through with yet another extraordinary music video with vibrant colors, creative concepts, and bizarre characters. Along with Tyler, Kali Uchis performs her verse in the video, and there’s also a brief cameo of A$AP Rocky.As per usual, Tyler concludes the video with another little video snippet of an additional track. This time he ends with an eerie clip of him performing “Where This Flower Blooms,” featuring Frank Ocean.Check out the video below and enjoy!
Following a Suitable Sunday set at Beta Nightclub last weekend in Denver, the Los Angeles-based Musician, producer, DJ, along with composer, Matt Lange proves to be a more Respectable presence in the American scene. He has defied categorization throughout his profession; outfitted with an instinctual ear for music production and an insatiable drive to learn more about the aural spectrum. As a youthful Manhattan native, Matt Lange discovered his passion for music early on. At four decades of age, he discovered piano at six, joined a choir; along with as a teen, stomped off his own route with a guitar along with the aid of a metallic band. Exposed into the ineffable sounds of Aphex Twin and Nine Inch Nails, at 15, he divided to the area of music production. Fascinated with all the boundless possibilities, he eventually took to Boston’s esteemed Berklee College of Music to refine his talents under a composition-based music production and sound design major.

In 2015, he also released his debut album Ephemera on mau5trap Recordings, rightfully helping champion the influential label’s directional shift towards darker, techno, and underground-tipped sounds. His follow-up album Patchwork came in 2016, exposing that the unwritten principles of the electronic era by diving even deeper into metal synth roots under a modern digital translation, placing his raw, textured noise on a grade untouched by other manufacturers in his realm.

Denver-based psych-rock group Eldren is back with a new single, “Still Want More,” which dropped July 26. The song is a perfect end-of-summer earworm — a great addition to any last minute summer jam playlist. With hazy and upbeat melodies that are sure to get stuck in your head after the first listen, the track may be an indicator of a slightly new direction for the band. It comes in a bit softer around the edges than much of their debut album, Welcome to Deathville, with stronger synth-pop influences, and fewer punky riffs and vocals. Starting out with a spacy and lighthearted synth, the song delves into the story of a 21st-century romance — the lines between friends and lovers muddied and hard to decipher — something most people can resonate with given our current social and technological landscape.
The single is off of Eldren’s upcoming album, Miss Information Aged, which is set to be released September 21 via Needlejuice Records. Frontman Tyler Imbrogno cites the ever-thinning line between reality and media as the inspiration behind the name and themes of the album. He mentions, “The title of the album is intended to reflect the ‘telephone’ like effect of facts and opinions being distorted as they spread — and simultaneously refers to ‘information’ as our ‘goddess.’” Until then, we have some more singles and music videos coming out to look forward to as well.
“Still Want More” was an extremely collaborative effort for Eldren — something that they haven’t experimented with much in the past. Imbrogno talked about the track being put together from scratch — it was the result of the group constantly bouncing ideas off of each other until they finally got a song. He described the track as “a cry for optimism during pessimistic times,” and described that it is their way of resisting the seemingly constant negativity in the media and embracing things that make them happy.
In the past few years, we have seen Eldren through high highs and devastating lows. From sharing the stage with the likes of Gomez, Cold War Kids, The Black Angels, Imagine Dragons and Dr. Dog, to suffering the loss of their founding bassist, Steve Holloway at age 25, Eldren has persisted and grown both personally and musically. Their circumstances became an opportunity for them to strengthen as a group and to explore and experiment with their collective sound.
They spent this summer touring around the state and the west, starting here in Denver at 303 Music Fest and ending on a sweet note at home during the Underground Music Showcase, which was their last show in the area until their album release at the Oriental Theater in September. We look forward to perhaps a new era of Eldren in the next coming years, and to see where else they will take their music.
“Miss Information Aged” is available now on vinyl, CDs and cassettes and “Welcome to Deathville” cassettes are available now for pre-order here.

For a while there, it was uncertain whether the CHVRCHES show at the Ogden Monday night would go on as planned. A flash rainstorm had rendered the theater without power minutes before doors were set to open, leaving scores of fans snaked around the block. Anticipation remained palpable, however, as the many diehards waited out the uncertainty hoping the odds would be in their favor to catch the Scottish synth-pop band. With bated breath, eventually their efforts were rewarded and the theater kicked back into gear as CHVRCHES served as a beacon through the blackout.
Shimmering in the synth-wave fissures of the percolating lights, the band had the crowd in their palm of their hand — who was shouting back the group’s lyrics and pummeling the floor with their feet. Mayberry would strut the stage, spinning amidst the retro-sounding commotion encouraging the crowd to sing louder and move harder. Switching off with Martin Doherty for a couple songs, namely “God’s Plan” and “Under the Tide,” the two were in sync, and served to ramp up the audience’s hype even more. With a musical palate that seemed to be endlessly ascending and genuinely positive, CHVRCHES assured that any uneasiness that existed before had been erased and that there was in fact, a light at the end of the tunnel.
