MGMT vs The Aviation Orange
Are we paranoid over here at RethinkPopMusic? I know people often say that imitation is the best form of flattery, but that usually doesn’t involve someone well known imitating the lesser. Take a moment to watch The Aviation Orange’s “Radio” which debuted on mtvU last October and the second video off MGMT’s new album.
Siren Music Festival
Seeing that it’s the middle of July means only one thing; The Village Voice will be taking over Coney Island this Saturday to offer us a slew of great music for FREE! Even more spectacular is the fact that this is Siren’s 10 year anniversary and The Village Voice have invited back their and our favorite acts from the past decade. Do NOT miss Apache Beat, Surfer Blood, Harlem and Matt and Kim!
Check out some pictures from last year where Bear Hands introduced the world to Das Racist and The Blue Van taught me how to DRINK! Be sure to come out this Saturday!
LA Shark… fucking awesome!
LA Shark are the most progressive people/music coming out of London/Brighton right now! We were lucky to share a stage with them at Audio last year when we were touring the UK and we can’t wait to bring them to NYC. Check out the official video for their single “A Weapon” below:
Quantify?!
What’s “IT” worth? We are enjoying…
French, (not Justice) good, (not Justice) carbon coby, (Royksopp), video (genius)
Brooklyn, (eh… so ) good, (need a band) carbon coby (bout time you got a band), video (already innovators… show your parts)
RethinkPopMusic teams up with Looseworld and Beyond Race Magazine
We will be teaming up with one of our favorite production companies and magazines for an innovative event that introduces musicians to filmmakers via a creative contest. Our very own The Aviation Orange and our good friends Das Racist will be performing for the after-party! Buy advance tickets here:
Hypernova on Fox News
One of favorite bands Hypernova frontman Raam was on Fox News and did a great job not getting sucked into their bigotry…
Pop Tarts Suck Toasted Party
Our good friends at Pop Tarts Suck Toasted have put together a lineup that makes even us jealous. If you haven’t heard of Sea Monster yet, you will soon! Check out their nifty blog to boot…
