It’s a grey, rainy day here in Montreal, the kind of day where you wish that you could just sit inside all day and forget about the fact that it’s Monday. Unfortunately we have to go out and face the real world, so here are a few songs to throw on your iPod while you’re commuting to work or walking to class. For me, music always makes days like this a little more manageable; I hope that these songs will…

Happy Friday. We’re trying to get back into the swing of classes here, which means I’m starting to spend an inordinate amount of time reading about things I really don’t care about that much. It’s a little frustrating, so I apologize for not posting much this week. We had a fantastic time at Ratatat on Tuesday when they came through Metropolis. They went through a good deal of their hits all the way from Classics to LP4 and kept the…

A very happy Labor Day to all. We’re in full chill mode here because today is our last day of rest and relaxation before classes get into full swing. Today we have some work-themed tunes to help you celebrate your Labor Day right, hope everyone out there is having a great three day weekend. Also, keep an eye out for an upcoming feature about TNM by our friend Nico at 4MTL. We had a really good time talking with him,…

Happy Friday everyone. Just got back a few hours ago from seeing Flying Lotus and Lunice at Just For Laughs, and I’m happy to say that this show exceeded my already high expectations.  Lunice got the crowd pumped up and ready to go by playing a great selection of hip hop tracks and showing off his formidable dance moves. He was a great opener, but it was Fly Lo who really brought down the house. He played off of the…

What’s up guys? I’m going to keep this post nice and short, but I was poking around the TNM inbox today and found some sick new videos to share with y’all. Two are from Russ Chimes, one of my favorite producers in the business right now. Russ is releasing his new Midnight Club EP as a video trilogy, and today we have parts one and two for you to enjoy. Part three drops September 8th, so we’ll post that as…

It’s been a while since we last heard from Klaxons, but the UK alt-rockers recently dropped their sophomore album, Surfing the Void, on August 23rd. This LP is their follow up to 2007′s critically acclaimed Myths of the Near Future and the first new material released by the boys in 3 years. With so much time to craft their next record, my expectations for this one were pretty high. On Surfing the Void, Klaxons stay true to their unique style…

It’s all coming to an end. A new year of classes begins today, and although I’m obviously sorry to see summer go, it’s time to get back to work and back to the grind. A new year means a new set of resolutions about getting my life on track, here’s hoping I don’t disregard them in a month. Getting back to business after weeks of freedom is never fun, but on the bright side, we have some great music coming…
