Cape Canaveral Fishing Report: June ’10 • Captain Scott Bussen • So I lied to you all. Yeah, yeah, the check’s in the mail, I love you and, well… you know the rest.

You’re more likely to hear this kind of independent, underground sound in more metropolitan areas, places where electronic music either matches the mechanical rhythms of urban life or, in more ambient form, offers respite from the city’s unending din. Hearing Twenty Second Century, Forgotten Citizen’s... [Read more...]

Born in Belgium in 1910 and raised in a gypsy camp outside of Paris, Reinhardt was the first truly influential jazz artist to originate from Europe. He was also arguably the first to successfully highlight the acoustic guitar in what had hitherto been a horn-driven, decidedly black American genre, and Reinhardt’s unique guitar work remains beyond reproach...
