If you were a big Clipse/Neptune fan in the ’00s, then perhaps you remember Rosco P Coldchain, the verbose, gravelly Philly rap hardnose who always seemed like he was poised for a breakout moment. Coldchain had some vivid, memorable verses on Neptunes tracks, but his completed Star Trak debut Hazardous Life was shelved. In 2008,…

The Chicago-reared, Vermont-based folk singer-songwriter Hannah Frances released her stunning album Nested In Tangles last fall. Today she’s back with the deluxe edition, headlined by a new collaboration with harpist Mary Lattimore, who adds layers of beauty to the meditative instrumental “Beholden To The Birds Murmuring Above.” Also in the bonus tracks: an acoustic version…

Things have been going pretty well for Geese since they released Getting Killed, the best album of 2025. You might even say the psyop is working. These days, they’re winning awards and walking in runway shows and debuting new songs and shit. They just made a very high-profile Coachella debut, covering Justin Bieber for an audience that included Sabrina Carpenter and Jack White. Courtney Love has gone from “Geese-curious” to singing their song on Instagram. It’s a good day for Geese to announce another North American tour.

In the five years since Daft Punk announced their breakup, Thomas Bangalter has kept himself busy by scoring films, soundtracking contemporary dance performances, teaming up with young artists like Lil Nas X and Fred again.., and composing music for ballets. His first solo album, in fact, was 2023’s Mythologies, an orchestral work for Angelin Preljocaj’s eponymous ballet that didn’t sound very much like Daft Punk at all. Today Bangalter has announced his next ballet endeavor, Mirage, which is billed as “a vast and atmospheric piece of electronic minimalism.” That doesn’t sound much like Daft Punk either, but it’s closer!

Duran Duran and Chic legend Nile Rodgers go way, way back together. When they first started, Duran Duran described their own sound as Chic meets the Sex Pistols, and they scored their first #1 hit in the US when Rodgers remixed their 1984 single “The Reflex.” Rodgers and Duran Duran went on to work together…

Courtney Love, by her own admission, has quickly gone from “Geese-curious” to Geese appreciator. In a couple of Instgram reels earlier this year, the Hole frontwoman said she was still “trying to get” the Brooklyn band, later updating fans that she was “fully liking it” despite “gatekeeping elder millennial troll fans.” Now, a few weeks after she posted on her story from a Geese show in the UK, she’s singing along.

Kim Petras has a brief flirtation with mainstream pop stardom after she appeared on Sam Smith’s 2022 chart-topper “Unholy,” but it didn’t fully click. Since then, Petras has gone back to making the kind of confrontational, hyper-artificial dance-pop that brought her to the dance in the first place. Earlier this year, she asked for her…
