Deerhunter

Deerhunter's new EP, Rainwater Cassette Exchange, is set to be released June 8th on Kranky. Based off hearing the EP's title track, the group seems to have taken a slight step back, toward the more cluttered dreamy garage-pop of their first EP, Fluorescent Grey. Definitely looking forward to hearing what else the EP has to offer.

Record Store Day

Record Store Day is tomorrow and thankfully MBV has been kind enough to put together a list, available for download, of all the exclusive releases being given away at your local record stores. Make sure to check out which record stores near you are participating and figure out what they're doing, because some of them might have some pretty cool stuff going on to celebrate.

"Zero" Animal Collective Remix

The long awaited remix is now available for streaming pleasure via Discoattack.

Headless Heroes

Headless Heroes consists of a group of artists working together to create/recreate music for music's sake. The group's lead voice is Alela Diane and the mission is to produce gloriously fresh creations of older songs that may have gotten lost in the cracks of time. The group covers a wide range, spanning over forty years, from "Daniel Johnston, The Jesus & Mary Chain and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds back to Vashti Bunyan, Linda Perhacs and The Gentle Soul." The Silence of Love, their sophomore album, will be released May 19th. You can grab the Headless Heroes' cover of Daniel Johnston's "True Love Will Find You In The End" here, at the bottom of the page, for the easy price of an email address.

Erol Alkan

Erol Alkan always seems to take tracks to a new level after he's had his way with them and he certainly transforms the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' rather unspectacular single, Zero, into a dance floor phenomenon.
