The sound of Beach House’s ‘Once Twice Melody’

John Clark | Thursday, February 24, 2022

Considering the fact that my music taste is dominated by white rock music, it always surprises me when I remember that I got into Beach House via Kendrick Lamar. On the song “Money Trees” from his 2012 album “Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City,” Kendrick sampled Beach House’s “Silver Soul” from their 2010 breakthrough album “Teen Dream.”

Weyes Blood Makes Grandiose Statement with ‘Titanic Rising’

Patrick Witteman | Thursday, April 11, 2019

Natalie Mering, who performs under Weyes Blood, is no stranger to the music industry. “Titanic Rising,” her newest, most stunning offering, is the fourth LP that she has released since her full-length debut in 2011. What distinguishes this album from the other three is that “Titanic Rising” was released under the indie rock stalwart Sub

Scene’s Year in Review 2018: Best albums of the year

Nora McGreevy, Sara Schlecht, Ryan Israel, Mike Donovan, Jake Winningham, Nia Sylva, Kay Bontempo, Lucas Masin-Moyer, Carlos De Loera and Ethan Utley | Thursday, December 6, 2018

In early December, as finals begin to emerge on the horizon, Scene writers take off their headphones, pause the music and look back at what they’ve listened to throughout the year. Each writer picks their personal 20 best albums, and 2018 had no shortage of albums to choose from. Old names returned to the scene,

Scene Selections: New Singles

Ryan Israel, Margaret McGreevy, Martin Kennedy and Nora McGreevy | Thursday, November 1, 2018

Every once in a while it’s a good idea to ditch the algorithm-driven coldness of Spotify’s “New Releases” tab or Apple Music’s “New Music” section. Instead, turn to humanity and rely on your favorite Scene writers to recommend what might be your new favorite song. “Alien” — Beach House By Ryan Israel, Scene Writer Beach

The Radio Dept.: synth pop subversives

Mike Donovan | Monday, November 14, 2016

On the night of Nov. 4, all manner of standard-issue demagogues roam the halls of Stockholm’s Grand Hotel. Their lively banter reflects the spirit of gratuitous self-congratulation wafting through the air. This is not a time to debate divisive issues. It’s a time to celebrate. The event — dubbed the European Freedom Awards — recognizes

Best Songs of 2015

Matthew Munhall and Matt McMahon | Thursday, December 10, 2015

1. “Gosh” / “Loud Places” [ft. Romy] — Jamie xx “Gosh” begins as a relatively tame electronic tune with fluttering percussion and vocal drops. Halfway through, the song transforms into an experiment, with the British producer seeing just how high he can take a euphoric synth line. “Loud Places,” on the other hand, is his

Scene’s Best Albums of 2015

Matthew Munhall, Erin McAuliffe, John Darr, Adam Ramos, Kelly McGarry and Matt McMahon | Tuesday, December 8, 2015

1. Kendrick Lamar — “To Pimp a Butterfly” K.Dot’s follow up to “good kid, m.A.A.d city” maintains the same urgency as that album’s personal narrative, but refocuses its subject on more universal questions of black identity. “To Pimp a Butterfly” uses Lamar’s rise to the top of the rap game to explore the ways in

Scenecast #4: Unpopular Culture

Matthew Munhall and Matt McMahon | Sunday, November 22, 2015

This fall, we premiered Scenecast, a new podcast from the Observer Scene staff. Each week, a think tank of Scene writers will discuss a topic from the pop culture zeitgeist. Our writers watch, read and listen to more media than is probably healthy, and this podcast will be another vehicle for sharing that knowledge, often in more

Music Media and the Vinyl Revival

Erin McAuliffe | Wednesday, November 18, 2015

In this day of aesthetic appraisal, the way you choose to consume music is a decision as consuming as what music to consume. Last week Pitchfork delved into the different mediums. The article, “What Your Music Format Says About You,” had a seemingly Buzzfeed-esque quiz title, but unfortunately I was not met with a conclusive “You Are A Cassette

Microphone Musings

Erin McAuliffe | Friday, November 6, 2015

You attend concerts to hear what artists sing, but often times the words they speak into the microphone linger long past the melodies. This personal connection enabled only through concerts by spontaneous sharing is integral to my love of seeing artists live. Perhaps it’s the journalist in me, but I itch to hear opinions and
