It could be called reggae time -- a slow unfurling of temporal reality as time as a metronomic concept loses meaning and becomes something more elastic and less measurable.

Finally! There is an Indian version of The Grammy. The Global Indian Music Awards (GiMA) held their second annual award function recently. As with any award

Long before Occupy Wall Street, Italian rappers Zero Plastica gave voice to the plight of the 99% -- the messed up economy, political chicanery, organized crime, lack of opportunity and overwhelming odds stacked against regular people. DJ Nio, Lure, and G.O.Man are activists and moral consciences

Damu has only been putting out his crystalline dance music for a year-and-a-half, but Sam Schorb's glistening take on UKG, electro, and house has already been touted by Mike Skinner as the future of UK bass. His summer single "Ridin'" took liberal arpeggios, laser bleeps, and r&b vocals and

Yes, it's the language that I'm writing in. But I'm over it. Music lovers around the world must be agreeing with me, because from our view at MTV Iggy, 2011 marked a clear move beyond the English-language domination of pop music. As our 2011 Best New Band in the World, K-pop superstars 2NE1 said,...

A good dance track is hard to find. More specifically, a good dance track that you're willing to listen to sober whilst four days away from viable social contact is hard to find. Yet "Out of It," a hit from Denmark's Fallulah, was recently remixed by Parisian disco house tinkerer Monsieur Adi, and

If you think about it, incorporating throat singing and Mongolian instruments and shamanic traditions into black metal is really a totally logical move. Mongolian shamanism = pagan practices, revering the natural world, and badass costumes, which = black metal, obvs. Also, despite centuries of

  Lucky for me, one of my favorite global hip-hop duos on the planet live right here in NYC. Eli Efi (Brazil) and DJ Laylo (DR/Bronx) aren't your average hip-hop group. For one, they're married (cutest couple in hip-hop!) and have been working together musically for the past 5 years. In

Kyoto, Japan -- known for its shrines and breathtaking scenery -- harbors a few secrets. Behind the tourist traps lie standard urban problems: poverty, broken homes, alcoholism, and emotional pain. And Anarchy is leaking them all. Anarchy hails from public housing in the city, and is using his
