Greatest thing ever. Period. Except it sounds like there's some autotune.

Awesomely odd rap/rave group Die Antwoord go shopping at Amoeba Records in LA (which is, by all accounts, a good place to find oneself). I don't think their album has been released in North America quite yet, but from what I have heard (there are some tracks floating around) it is just as intense as you would guess.

Hello internet listeners. The June 7th show is available for download here. Work it on out, nah.

Here's a decent article on the cover art for the new Black Keys album. I think the tunes are good indeed, but the design and packaging is top shelf. Cooper Black is a weird typeface in terms of its history and contemporary usage, but they nailed it on their cover.

Do you like free music? This music is free, and not too shabby.

No show yesterday because I was stuck in an airport (unexpectedly). To make up for it, listen to and watch this video. And sing along as well.

From Stereogum:

Talk of a new Aphex Twin album started about this time last year, when Warp Records celebrated its 20th anniversary and label founder Steve Beckett went on record saying a new Aphex album would happen in a year or two. No album yet, but Richard James did bring out some new tracks in Metz, France on Friday while on a European DJ tour.
