The Hush Sound have been quiet for the past five years. Finally, their silence has been broken, and those delicious poppy tunes we love are back. Rhapsody is lucky enough to debut “Scavengers” today, excessively to Rhapsody listeners. We love the new tune and are excited to hear the rest[...]
Check out the entire SXSW photo album on Facebook here. Possibly nowhere else could you see a group of ’60s British icons, some feverish Canadian noise-punks, and an IDM knob-twiddling wizard from L.A.,and meet Austin’s own rock hero Britt Daniel (he of Spoon and Divine Fits) on the street, all in a span of[...]

As an authority on all things gaming we asked Veronica to share a list of her favorite tunes from video game soundtracks. Check it out here. She[...]
