SXSW Interviews: Prince Rama

March 9, 2012 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

As we continue our SXSW coverage, we’re bringing to you a group that sadly gets lumped in with psychedelic rock, not that we don’t like that style, but Prince Rama is so much more than that. They’re a whole lot more experimental, combinging elements of Eastern world music, creating an atypical sound from the get-go. They played a great show in Austin earlier this year with Gang Gang Dance, so we expect another great performance. Oh, and apparently cats are the loneliest thing if their owned by touring bands.

Show Review: Gang Gang Dance @ the Mohawk (10/3)

October 6, 2011 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Admittedly, I’ve always been fascinated by the bands that joined up to exhilerate the crowds on this past Monday night, but I can’t say it’s the kind of music I listen to continuously. However, this show at the Mohawk probably changed that for good.

Show Preview: Gang Gang Dance @ the Mohawk (10/3)

Date	Monday, October 3rd
Location	Mohawk
Doors	630p
Tickets	$11 from Frontgate

I know, I know, Taking Back Sunday is playing Monday night, but this show over at the Mohawk is going to be far better, I promise. Some of the most creative indie music being made is coming to our town tonight courtesy of Gang Gang Dance. They’re fresh off the summer release of their album, Eye Contact. Their known for extravagant shows, and lets hope this is no exception. But, you get twice as lucky if you come early, as opening band Prince Rama are a force to be reckoned with in their own right. From what I know, PR brings one of the best live acts to town, so you couple that with Gang Gang Dance and you’re left with one brilliant show that’s a can’t miss. Pretty killer way to start off October with our friends at the Mohawk.

New Dance Track from New Moods

April 26, 2011 nathan.lankford 2 comments

I’m having a personality crisis! I’m tossing out two new electronic jams today, and you know what, I don’t care. these things are too good to just simply put aside. New Moods is a fairly new project, and seeing as they don’t have a lot of output yet, this one should definitely grab your attention. At first, I figured it was sort of just an oddball electronica piece, but then it unloads into a lush melodic hypnosis that will surely grab the attention of those in attendance when the band plays May 4th with Gang Gang Dance in New York. Don’t resist this; it’s just too good.
