through the portal at the king gizzard synth table pop-up

Much has been made of our current urban culture of line waiting. Frozen yogurt, matcha, pop-ups where you can try new beauty products, limited edition Trader Joes miniature tote bags. When I was in New York a few months ago, a street in Soho was shut down and segmented

thinking about "ray of light" as i often tend to do

The Ray Of Light album was the first Madonna album that came out after I started caring about and remembering music. I had already been listening to '80s Madonna since I was a kid—True Blue was one of the only albums I had on cassette, I would often

i saw every group with "wolf" in their name at osheaga 2026, AMA

Sunday evening at Osheaga I couldn't stop crying! First I caught the end of Clipse's set and they played "The Birds Don't Sing" which is about the deaths of Pusha T and Malice's parents. Their visuals for that song were

Three Music Thingz with Josaleigh Pollett

We are so back with another rendition of Three Music Thingz, the blogseries where I ask musicians for three thingz that are essential to their music-making. Today we have Josaleigh Pollett! Pollett is a Salt Lake City, Utah-based singer-songwriter and a longtime fave of the I Enjoy

I ENJOY MUSIC VIDEO PREMIERE: Tod Lippy - "The Ache"

A new premiere on I Enjoy Music (and I Enjoy Music Videos) awaits, and it rips. Walk with me... ...a while back, I interviewed the filmmaker Kyle Garrett about the video he did for Car Colors, the current musical identity of Charles Bissell of The Wrens... behind the music video:

an interview with Matthew S (Illegal Art + Myth Math)

It was 2006 and I was sixteen in Burlington, Vermont. If you needed to track me down, you could generally find me in the sale section of Urban Outfitters, looking for a $4 t-shirt that would make me feel 2% cooler than I was. I had an older sister

Three Music Thingz with Super Steve (Steve Delamater)

We are so back with another rendition of Three Music Thingz, the blogseries where I ask musicians for three thingz that are essential to their music-making. Today we have Super Steve! That's the six-piece nerd rock band led by L.A.'s own Steve Delamater.

behind the video with Buds. ("Time Well Spent")

I find the "compilation of clips shot while going on tour" style of music video to be so poignant. Besides providing evidence of life lived in person—going to places, hanging out with people, being Outside—there's an intentionality and commitment that comes with making such

I'M CALLING IT: THE SONG OF THE SUMMER IS THE INSTRUMENTAL FOR THE TAME IMPALA / JENNIE SONG "DRACULA"

2026, we're all just here doing our best. Different countries are playing soccer. Basketball just wrapped up with great results for the Knicks. Madonna put out an amazing album, she should be very proud of herself. Meanwhile me, my finger ever on the pulse, my consciousness mind-melding

patrick wolf live (+ still alive)

There's something magical about being in a smaller crowd where every single person in the crowd is a superfan. It's the opposite of a music festival experience, where there's a shitload of people but very little loyalty. Everyone at the Patrick Wolf show came

behind the video with Curls Ultra ("Vegas (Mandalay Bay)")

Quick question, what is in the water in the greater Chicago area?? Because this city continues to produce a disproportionate amount of the world's weirdest and most fun art. Fire-Toolz is one of the most interesting artists of the past decade...Cocojoey has been throwing down...the

I ENJOY MUSIC VIDEO PREMIERE: Krissanthemum - "It's Behind Me, Now It's Gone"

OOOO we have something exciting on the site today—that's right—I Enjoy Music is proud to introduce a new tune and music video from Krissanthemum. You might remember Krissanthemum (aka Krissy Lassiter) from the world famous I Enjoy Music (Stoned) series where I interviewed stoner musicians about
