Reviews

M83's new record is strikingly cinematic, getting us amped for the future while reminding us of the good old days.
The Keys and Danger Mouse harness Zeppelin on the tour mini-van to blues salvation.
Best of 2011

Artist In Residence

Hometown: Black Mountain, NC
Named after a vintage Gretsch bass drum pedal, Floating Action is the pseudonym of Black Mountain, North Carolina-based musician, songwriter, and producer Seth Kauffman. Following the 2007 homemade gem Research (released under his own name) and Floating Action’s gorgeously understated self-titled follow-up from 2009, Kauffman’s third full-length is titled Desert Etiquette.
