The Ultimate Songs For Making Out, According To Your Sign
By Lisa Stardust Our hookup language is complicated. We all have different fantasies, desires, and turn-ons, and due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, navigating relationships is more complex than ever. Instead of making out between classes or in the bar whenever and with whomever we want, many of us have had to stave off the random hookups for safer, one-on-one quarantine loving. But even then, the extreme of the situation has left the strongest of partnerships shaken, as breakup and divorce rates increase around the world, with many in need of adding a little extra spice to the mix — especially with Valentine’s Day here again. Luckily, the stars are here to help us understand our innermost passions and sexual desires. Every birth chart dictates unique carnal impulses that ...
Tame Impala Sound System To Make Live Debut With Back to Back Shows In March
Tame Impala Sound System is taking to the road in early March for two back-to-back performances at the SNACK Weekender in Perth. Tame Impala Sound System was an idea born in the quarantine era subsequent to the frontman himself cancelling a massive stadium tour last year. Instead, Tame Impala took to jamming digitally via livestream with his bandmates on a trove of analog technology. Thus, Tame Impala Sound System was born as the group went on to appear together for a number of sets, most notably taking over NPR‘s “Tiny Desk” concert series late last year. The upcoming shows, however, will effectively be the live debut of Tame Impala Sound System. Taking to Twitter, the “Breathe Deeper” artist further fueled the excitement by sharing the war chest of synths an...

[WATCH] David Guetta Performs Atop Iconic Dubai Landmark In Latest “United At Home” Livestream
David Guetta‘s “United At Home” concert series has graced some of the world’s most magnificent skylines and awe-inspiring sights. Over the weekend, the platinum-selling producer streamed from atop yet another breathtaking landmark, Dubai’s Burj Al Arab Jumeira hotel. For the first “United At Home” of 2021, David Guetta knew he had to make a lasting impression, especially since the image of the producer’s New Year’s Eve performance from the Louvre in Paris has hardly left our minds. Needless to say, Guetta’s latest stunt did not disappoint. Performing atop a giant LED platform, Guetta’s sharp visuals beamed up into the sky from under him as he led fans on a journey through his iconic discography. Shining like a lone bea...
Ekonovah Pushes the Boundaries of House on Latest EP “The Beginning”
Phoenix-based producer Ekonovah offers his latest two-track EP, The Beginning, via Insomniac Records’ In / Rotation imprint. Following his mission to influence the electronic music scene with a new sound, his EP pushes the boundaries of house music with a unique and refreshing spin. Titular track, “The Beginning,” delivers blissfully inspiring lyrics, a crunchy bassline, and distorted synths, while “Iris” throws down with a groovy house beat. “‘The Beginning’ is a song about self-love and knowing that you are great, but at the same time understanding that there is always room for improvement,” the beatmaker says in a press statement. “Conversely, ‘Iris’ shows the other side of myself – a track constructed fo...

Ora The Molecule Announces Debut Album Human Safari, Shares “Creator”: Stream
Norwegian avant-pop artist Ora The Molecule has signed to Mute Records and announced her debut album Human Safari. To pair with the news, she’s shared its elastic lead single, “Creator”. Ora The Molecule is the project of the Oslo, Norway-born songwriter Nora Schjelderup, who started putting out music under this name back in 2018. In 2019, she released a great EP called Sugar that sonically landed somewhere between The Eurythmics, Austra, and Jessie Ware. Throughout the rest of 2019, she dribbled out singles that were in the same vein of sleek, icy, slightly strange dance-pop, and clearly she resonated with a wider audience. According to a press release, the 12-track Human Safari was informed by Schjelderup taking the opportunity to really examine the world around her. ...
Judas and the Black Messiah Soundtrack Features JAY-Z, Nipsey Hussle, NAS, ASAP Rocky, More
Nipsey Hussle, JAY-Z (photo by Amy Price), Nas (Ben Kaye), and ASAP Rocky (Kimberley Ross) Judas and the Black Messiah officially arrives later this week, but the Shaka King film has already drawn rave reviews, including being named on of the Top 10 Movies of 2020 by the National Board of Review. The soundtrack is shaping up to be a blockbuster in its own right — Rapsody and others shared the tracklist on social media, and it boasts the first collaboration between JAY-Z and Nipsey Hussle, as well as NAS, ASAP Rocky, and more. The movie concerns Fred Hampton, a leader in the Black Panther movement who was betrayed by fellow panther William O’Neal and then assassinated in his sleep by the FBI on December 4th, 1969. It’s produced by Ryan Coogler and stars Daniel Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanf...
Faith No More, Stone Sour, Lagwagon Members Form Dirty O’Keeffe, Unleash “Brick or Bullet”: Stream
Members of Faith No More, Stone Sour, Lagwagon, and Trash N’ Privilege have started a quarantine band called Dirty O’Keeffe, introducing themselves with the single “Brick or Bullet”. The group features bassist Billy Gould (Faith No More), Christian Martucci (guitarist for Stone Sour and Corey Taylor’s solo band), drummer Dave Raun (Lagwagon), and guitarist Steve Shephard (Trash N’ Privilege). “Brick or Bullet” is a riff-heavy rocker that features lead vocals by Martucci, who also delivers a blistering guitar solo around the two-minute mark. There’s no word yet on whether it’s a one-off song or if the new outfit has more music on the way. Gould had time to work on the new project after Faith No More’s summer tour with Korn was canceled due to the pandemic. Other Faith No More members have a...
Hayley Williams’ Flowers For Vases/Descansos Is Her Saddest, Quietest Music Yet
With her surprise LP, Flowers For Vases/Descansos, Hayley Williams has forgone further pop experimentation, instead clinging to a raw recitation of profound, suffocating sadness. The Paramore singer’s sophomore solo effort, released on Friday, employs little more than austere acoustic guitar and piano interludes across its 14 new tracks, which lament well beyond the waves of Williams’ past emotional wreckage. This time, the 32-year-old star is hopelessly set adrift between shores: At one edge, the luring memories of lost love, moments both soul-affirming and earth-shattering from which she cannot fully escape. At the other, forgiveness, catharsis, moving on — none of which she can seem to firmly grasp. Back and forth she floats. While eloquently arranged, Flowers’ uniform anguish mak...
Phoebe Bridgers Calls David Crosby ‘little bitch’ After Critique of Guitar Smash
Phoebe Bridgers didn’t mince words to rock elder statesman David Crosby after his social media criticism of her guitar-smashing stunt on Saturday Night Live, calling the (sometimes) lovable crotchety elder statesman a “little bitch” in a tweet. Crosby had referred to the incident with her Danelectro guitar as “pathetic” and “childish stage drama” after a fan asked him his take on the moment that occurred at the end of her performance of “I Know the End.” Guitars are for playing ..making music …..not stupidly bashing them on a fake monitor for childish stage drama …..I really do NOT give a flying F if others have done it before It’s still STUPID — David Crosby (@thedavidcrosby) February 9, 2021 Bridgers, 26, was the featured guest on Saturday Night Live while Crosby, 79, was impersonat...

Source: Fulton County Sheriff’s office / Fulton County Sheriff’s Office YFN Lucci is a free man, for now.
