Webster Hall gets shit for its prices, its show times, its subterranean club that pipes booty bass up through the floorboards at intimate shows. But you can't argue the Hall's landmark status, or at least not if Karin Andersson keeps... CONTINUE READING FEVER RAY @ WEBSTER HALL, NYC 9/28/09»

Röyksopp's futuristic "The Girl & The Robot" video starred a lonesome stay-at-home Robyn longing for her electro-mechanical man. "This Must Be It" includes the voice of Karin Dreijer Andersson, but instead of Fever Ray, the Filip and Andreas Nilsson-directed video...

Karin from the Knife's solo debut is under heavy rotation, and you are heavily advised to get it ASAP. Or at least, listen to the whole thing ASAP, and you can do both at Klicktrack. ... CONTINUE READING STREAM THAT AWESOME FEVER RAY ALBUM »

It'd be interesting to see how Andreas Nilsson would shift his eerie "If I Had A Heart" video to match onetime BTW Fuck Button's bouncier remix. Instead of Knife Karin Dreijer's dark, pulsing, ambient single we get one of those... CONTINUE READING NEW FEVER RAY - "IF I HAD A HEART" (FUCK BUTTONS REMIX) (STEREOGUM PREMIERE)»

While we're airing the dirty laundry/our compulsions, we semi-obsessively check in at Robyn's MySpace because she's, ya know, awesome, and learned today that the next single (compliments of Robyn's UK release cycle) is "Who's That Girl," her collab with the Knife, due April '08. What this means for you, person that's had the album for three years, is three new remixes (by Seamus Haji, Rex The Dog, and Drop The Lime) and a new, Diane Martel (of White Stripes and Beyoncé fame)-directed video. At this point "Who's That Girl" is one of the few LP tracks that doesn't already have a video (or two), so we are excited. That is all.
