Y’all, @clppng.bsky.social said “there’s not enough desk” in Tiny Desk, so they did something bout it. A lil BTS about Clipping’s doohickey-forward Tiny Desk. youtube.com/shorts/jte7_...

It’s a miracle they didn’t fall apart in the middle of this video

ICYMI: "Beck n Call" is the really good new jam by @waterbabyfr.bsky.social + #ttoh and is out now on @subpop.bsky.social youtu.be/bsJpoT53Vhw?...

So happy this is out in the world. It was a tough one to keep secret. Haha.

Thanks NPR Music

My first time playing turntables at Tiny Desk Concerts with Clipping!! youtu.be/h0-k7vW9Xek

The hip-hop band reshapes its hypnotic melodies and serrating beats with the aid of MIDI-triggered robots and a desk full of glass bottles, coffee mugs and a pizza box. n.pr/47iWsSy

In February, @subpop.bsky.social came to me with an idea that I found hard to resist: @clppng.bsky.social wanted to play the Tiny Desk, like, ON the actual desk... with MIDI-controlled robots striking coffee mugs and shaking paper clips. It's finally here. www.youtube.com/watch?v=h0-k...

Including the magical @flockofdimes.bsky.social album, The Life You Save. Check it:

Yep! "This is a record that proves why Wasner’s longevity is not only earned but essential. Just astonishing stuff here." @joshterry.bsky.social / No Expectations on @flockofdimes.bsky.social The Life You Save out now on @subpop.bsky.social.

Bay Area-reared indie rock outfit Rogue Wave will reissue its first two albums, Out of the Shadow and Descended Like Vultures, in expanded editions on March 27. www.spin.com/2025/10/rogu...

In case you missed our performance on @bestshow4life.bsky.social from a couple weeks ago

Walz: "They are paying contractors to pay down the East Wing but they're not putting money into the food bank. So if there's a sense of frustration in America, it's very real ... when the White House press secretary said their top priority is the ballroom, we could not disagree more."

Donated to my local food bank today. If you are able, please do.

here’s your sunday read: how fossil fuel ads, islamophobia and self-hatred in the beltway press corpse led me to write “horseglue,” a two-minute clarion call for accountability in the mainstream media. if it bleeds, it leads. here we go 🖤

Nation of Language frontman Ian Devaney on "Dance Called Memory," the band's dark but danceable fourth album.

Now that @hannahjadagu.bsky.social's new album Describe is out, can finally share one of my favorite tracks on the record. music.apple.com/us/album/tel...

So, @subpop.bsky.social's reissue of #SevereExposure reminds us why #SixFingerSatellite were noise-rock legends. The LP still hits like a synthpunk panic attack — taut, weird, brilliant. The bonus tracks? Mixed bag. But the main course? Untouchable. @spectrumculture.bsky.social LINK IN COMMENTS

A new, really great @talkhouse.bsky.social interview with @flockofdimes.bsky.social and #HannahFrances about their incredible new albums, 'The Life You Save' (on @subpop.bsky.social) and 'Nested In Tangles' (on @firetalkrecs.bsky.social). www.talkhouse.com/hannah-franc...

Today is the anniversary of Thank Your Lucky Stars, the second @beachhouseband.bsky.social album of 2015. Released two months after Depression Cherry, they ended up promoting TYLS songs at TV, skipping the DC tracks entirely. "One Thing" was the first performance on cycle. youtu.be/EQGSOgSe8Ro?...
