Originally influenced by 70’s rock bands, Rykman has since expanded and diversified her palette, and has made quite the name for herself in the jam […]

Talking with SKATERS’ Josh Hubbard: Is this the end of the road?

On the night of May 6th, a sold out Baby’s All Right witnessed both the triumphant return of and what may also very well have been our sweaty and raucous goodbye to New York favorites, SKATERS.  SKATERS soundtracked my college years in the city and produced many of my favorite shows—and least favorite hangovers—of my […]

Electric Zoo Interview: The Freeway of Flux

October 15, 2016 By Megan Venzin

Truth be told, I wasn’t always into bass music. I spent most of 2012 cringing to dubstep while most of my friends got down like dinosaurs. But that all changed when I first heard Flux Pavilion’s, I Can’t Stop. Those prolific vocals over moving melodies made from grimy synths bridged the gap between me and bass […]

October 23, 2015 By Megan Venzin

You probably caught wind of The Chainsmokers in 2014, when they released the playful single #SELFIE poking fun at the rise of social media and the youth’s not so secret addiction to self-satisfying posts . . . And please, let me take a MOMENT to gush about this dynamic duo’s rise to fame.
