Day 1 A crispy 88°, a cool lakefront breeze, and armed with a backpack full of every essential festival accessory known to man is how I started my voyage to one of the freshest festivals Chicago has to offer in the summer time. The buzz behind this years event was like nothing I’ve seen in...

In The Trenches: Spring Awakening Day 2 REVIEW
Saturday night ended in a bit of chaos and confusion as Skrillex thunderous bass levels brought on a flash rain storm that had everyone running for cover within the walls of Soldier Field. Our group of about 20 fled in different directions and it took us nearly 45 mins of walking in the wrong direction...

Occupy The Dankles Part 2: Dillo Day Recap (Northwestern)
Waking up and seeing the sky look grey and miserable outside almost tempted me to #OccupyMemoryFoam for the day and hibernate in my room watching soccer friendlies, but the thought of being the only non-Northwestern music blog to trek 11 miles north to see what could be one of the best kept secrets in Chicago...
Interview + Even If It Isn’t Right LP – Michal Menert

Lucky Date & Excision @ Congress Theater 4.20 REVIEW
For the entire week leading up to this show, the minds of many Chicagoans swam with a few daunting questions.

With this show being on day known for...
Ruffneck Bass (Alvin Risk Remix) [LIVE] – Skrillex
Never trust a man with a mustache is a saying that has been passed down generation after generation (or at-least in my family), but now I feel that the same can be said about men wearing sweater vest too. Alvin Risk can often be seen sporting sv’s of the argyle type, but don’t let his attire fool you because...

Live Sets from Ultra Music Festival 2012
We’ve scoured the internet for the last couple days while the UMF live Tv was going on with Youtube. Our guess is that a bunch of people ripped the artists sets from the Youtube streams. Well, luckily enough for us the stream didn’t have the worst quality to tell the truth. So while the mixes...
