Five Years ago, San Francisco did not have a music festival to call its own. Now it has two. While the larger event, Outside Lands, sells many more tickets every summer to those who wish only to pass out in the psychedelic haze of Golden Gate Park to art»

Aaah, the morning after the Guinness the night before. Don't know about you but I'm in the mood for some nice ambient 'jams'. It's the end of the week, it's the playlist (here) of what we've covered on DiS over the past seven days and yeah, it's rather 'chill'... »

So Beats week is over, next week we go back to our regularly scheduled program of writing about effete Brits and anonymous Swedish chillwave producers. It's been a wild ride; writing about Dipset, getting twitter-beefed (erm LA weekly, we're a website, not a blog, and we don't appreciate you miscategorizing our work like that).»

The world of electronic music is so littered with sub-genres now that it is far too difficult for many to keep track. More than anything, the awareness that terms for certain minutiae of change in a sonic spectrum is journalistic. But sometimes such defining words can feel appropriate – encapsulation will be impossible forever,»

I want to effect a turn of phrase that gets across exactly how wonderful the Bloc Weekender is. Once again, the three-day jaunt sold out its 5,000-ticket allocation, but if you didn’t go, you NEED to know why you missed out.»

As much as we'd have loved to fill every other track on this week's Spotify playlist, we couldn't. It wouldn't be fair on the other artists who have made vital contributions to our content over the past week. Sure, you've got the likes of Liars and St. Vincent up top, but you've also got bands like Chrome Hoof putting in the hard yards in the middle of the park. No, I don't even know what that's supposed to mean.»

Some records slip beneath nearly every radar. DiS even missed some of our writers' favourites from our end of year list (either because they hadn't been reviewed or mentioned by their peers). These are individual writers (and in this case, some of our most active message boarders) favourites of the year, records which they suggest, nay they demand, you take the time to investigate. So, these were the eight that you and we should have been celebrating...»
