Here Comes The: ICECREAMMAN
ByPatrick St. Michel March 17, 2010

In an age where I could follow everyone of my state representatives on Twitter, it’s nice to find the occasional thing shrouded in some sort of mystery. ICECREAMMAN fits the bill – a non-decorated MySpace page boasting a few photos and one song. No website beyond that, nearly no info, not even many friends. It’s…

Digital Overload: Tokinomakina’s “Slave Sekai Ga Kishimu Oto”
ByPatrick St. Michel February 13, 2017

We here are always fond of artists who can turn seeming chaos into something catchy and focused, so hearing Tokinomakina’s “Slave Sekai Ga Kishimu Oto” was a welcome treat today.

New Maho Littlebear: “Do It”
ByPatrick St. Michel September 22, 2015

Kyoto’s Maho Littlebear offers up a slow-burning house number with ‘Do It,” her third song in the span of 22 days, and the best of the trio. She seems to work in spurts — she sorta vanished after releasing a lot of new songs about eight months ago, counting this still-incredible collaboration with Soleil Soleil….

New Cemetery: “Riffs”
ByPatrick St. Michel March 31, 2017

Nothing says “Friday afternoon vibes” like some hair-raising, industrial-tinged electronic music. Cemetery excels at this, and he has an album coming out via Sacred Phrases in May. “Riffs” is a preview of what to expect, and it turns out the producer is dabbling in slow-burning, slowly building in force electronic music with all sorts of…
