Everyone’s welcome here, it’s a haven for house music in all it’s many manifestations, brought to you weekly by our favorite tasteful Minneapolis gentlemen, The Moon Goons.

My Life Is Painful
I’ve been spending some time lately (digitally speaking) in the company of LA’s Brainfeeder family. Off their roster you’ll immediately recognize Flying Lotus and also, hopefully, Daedelus and The Gaslamp Killer. Their podcast is excellent and I’m slowly working my way down their artist list, getting familiar with the not-so-familiar names.
Brooklyn transplant Lorn in particular […]
Clap With Me
I guess I’ve always thought of Boston as a stuffy city with, at best, a few quality intellectual indie rock bands. And then I found Soul Clap. Sorry Boston, I stand corrected, you’re actually cool as shit. You make me want to buy a plane ticket.

And, it seems to be working. Bloggers and DJs alike have latched onto the mysterious now-residing-in-Chicago producer […]
Pop Parfait :: The Unconscious Edition
Welcome to another edition of Pop Parfait, where we explore and ponder recent releases in the ever changing, ever fascinating world of “pop music”. There’s no real theme or thread of continuity this time, just a fantastic cover, a gorgeously subdued remix, two male hip-pop tracks, and a ridiculous duet featuring a convicted felon that […]
