                                <description><![CDATA[PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT TAKES PLACE AT PROCESS - 5040 SE MILWAUKIE AVE IN PORTLAND - AND DOES NOT TAKE PLACE AT HOLOCENE. The purest approach produces the most authentic outcome. Amtrac favors a tactile assembly of alternative electronic music reliant on handcrafted nuance akin to that of a band. The Kentucky-born and Los Angeles-based artist, DJ, producer, remixer, multi-instrumentalist, and founder of&#160;Openers carefully fuses textures and styles into an unabridged, unfiltered, and undeniable sonic trip on his aptly titled second full-length, Oddyssey&#160;[Openers/RCA Records]. As such, he imparts a piece of himself on every moment -- from the production and composition to the vocals and performance. "The goal is for the music to feel pure," he affirms. "It's not like I'm cutting corners. I put a lot of time into creating a deliberate body of work. It's definitely for me first, and it tells a story." The story represents the culmination of a near nine-year journey since the release of his acclaimed 2011 debut,&#160;Came Along. The album elevated the Morehead, KY native -- born Caleb Cornett -- to the cutting edge of electronic music. In its wake, he amassed an acclaimed catalog of originals and remixes. Lending his touch to tunes by Two Door Cinema Club, Elderbrook, Sigur R&#243;s, and Chromatics,&#160;Pitchfork&#160;described his remixing as&#160;"epic-sounding." Among the originals, 2014's "Those Days" notably boasted vocals from Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye. Following the 2016 solo EP&#160;Lost In Motion, he reached a new plateau on the&#160;1987&#160;EP during 2017. Both "Never Lost" and "Piano Boy" put up over 6 million Spotify streams each as his total stream tally neared the 100 million mark. Along the way, he earned praise from&#160;Billboard,&#160;Mixmag,&#160;Revolt,&#160;Complex,&#160;i-D Magazine, and more in addition to gracing the stages of major festivals such as&#160;Ultra Music Festival,&#160;EDC Las Vegas,&#160;Osheaga Festival, and&#160;Holy Ship!, to name a few. Not to mention, he headlined shows on four continents. Launching Openers in 2017, he provided a home to tracks by Durante, Rick Trainor, Luces, and many others. Amidst this whirlwind, he continued to write music, working towards what would become&#160;Oddyssey. This time around, he nodded to a wider swath of influences. Inspired by filmmaker and composer John Carpenter of&#160;Halloween&#160;and&#160;Escape From New York&#160;fame, he further utilized outboard gear and incorporated synthesizer soundscapes as he built the framework of the record. He also sang on a total of four tracks. He teased the album by way of "Madness to Mayhem," which&#160;Billboard&#160;dubbed,&#160;"a song that seems to bridge the gap between his Came Along days and the moody blues of his present."&#160;Meanwhile, the first single "Between The Lines" illuminates an evolution. Above resounding piano, Amtrac's upbeat and uplifting production builds towards a hummable hook awash in a rush of fluttering neon synths and a driving beat.&#160; Renowned for his performances, the live show will integrate visuals as he plays synthesizers live and takes the microphone. "I want to do different things every show," he adds. "It's meant to be unique."]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[MSHR is an art collective that collaboratively builds and explores sculptural electronic systems. Their performances and installations integrate electrical signals and human presence, weaving dense networks of causality to form audiovisual environments that babble with a life-like current. They explore intuitive and technical gradients between sonic and sculptural forms, using analog circuitry and open-source software to sculpt mutually resonant hyperobjects. MSHR was founded by Brenna Murphy and Birch Cooper in 2011 in Portland, Oregon, as an offshoot from the collective Oregon Painting Society. The name MSHR is a modular acronym designed to hold varied ideas over time. It can be pronounced as an acronym or like one who meshes. website:&#160;www.MSHR.info &#160; The Tenses is a duo comprised of Ju Suk Reet Meate and Jackie Oblivia, core members of legendary group Smegma, founded in 1973 and veterans of the infamous sonic arts collective known as The Los Angeles Free Music Society. The duo was founded in 2008, using musical concepts developed over 40 years of organized and spontaneous sound making, with a focus on "live performance" in which the room has a major effect on the unfolding sounds. Instrumentation includes Record Player, Lap Steel Guitar, Pocket Trumpet , Electronics, Toys, etc. The name "The Tenses" is a title of a story in the book &#8220;The Dream World of Dion McGregor&#8221; from 1964. It is a unique book in that the stories are not &#8220;written&#8221;, but transcribed from stories told while asleep!&#160;website:&#160;https://smegmamusic.com/site/?cat=3 &#160; As &#8216;The Garbage Man&#8217;, Liz Harris of Grouper DJ&#8217;s odd tunes and scavenged mash-ups of obscure pop, classical, noise, and field recording on vinyl and cassette.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[There is something volatile about Daine. Not chaotic for the sake of it, but combustible in the way only truly vulnerable artists can be. Emerging from Melbourne&#8217;s underground in the late 2010s, they have built a catalogue that fuses emo, electronic abrasion, celestial pop and digital hardcore into something both intimate and confrontational. It is music that feels diaristic yet widescreen, fragile yet deliberately weaponised. Daine first drew attention with early singles like Picking Flowers before solidifying their voice on the 2021 EP Salt, which went on to win the Music Victoria Award for Best Pop Release. Since then, each project has widened the frame. Shapeless Mixtape and 2025&#8217;s I Want The Light To Swallow Me Whole pushed their sound into darker, more cinematic territory, created alongside collaborators including Lonelyspeck and Darcy Baylis. The result is a body of work that moves easily between club intensity and confession booth honesty. International momentum followed naturally. Daine has performed sold out headline shows in Los Angeles and New York, toured Europe with yeule, played Tokyo, and supported artists including Charli XCX, 100 gecs, EDEN, Mallrat and Bring Me The Horizon. On stage, the songs rupture. Guitars swell, distortion bites, and crowds scream lyrics back with something close to devotion. It is less a performance than a collective purge. In late 2025, Daine released the double single Make It Right / I Run My Hands Thru It via Pack Records in the United States, the first signal of a larger body of work unfolding across 2026. They are currently recording their debut album in Los Angeles, continuing to expand a sound that has always thrived on contradiction, tenderness and abrasion sharing the same breath. As of early 2026, Daine reaches close to 300,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, with a rapidly growing international audience. Press support has been both local and global. NME called them &#8220;a future emo icon.&#8221; Pitchfork has highlighted the emotional intensity and genre fluidity of their music. The FADER positioned them as a defining voice within contemporary alternative culture, while The Guardian described their work as &#8220;healing and painful, like looking directly at a solar flare.&#8221; Across DAZED, i-D, Crack and DIY, Daine has been recognised not simply as a songwriter, but as an artist constructing a fully realised world. As an artist living with disability, including POTS and Autism, Daine also speaks openly about accessibility within live music and has been announced for Ability Fest, Australia&#8217;s fully inclusive and accessible music festival. Advocacy sits naturally alongside their practice, not as branding, but as lived experience. Entering 2026, Daine stands in that rare space where cult devotion begins to tip toward scale. The rooms are getting bigger. The songs are getting sharper. The emotional stakes remain intact. What started as bedroom confession now feels architectural. And through it all, Daine has resisted smoothing out the edges. They remain restless, self interrogating, and unmistakably their own.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[ill peach began as a songwriting duo in the studios of New York City, crafting tracks for artists like Icona Pop, SZA, Weezer, and Pharrell before realizing their own music was too raw, too weird, and too electrifying to sit behind the scenes. Founded by Jess Corazza and Pat Morrissey, the band has always thrived in the space between chaos and catharsis, fusing left-of-center pop with punk energy and experimental grit. Now, with the official induction of their longtime friend and collaborator Jesse Schuster, ill peach has evolved into a full-fledged trio&#8212;tighter, louder, and more unpredictable than ever. Their debut album, THIS IS NOT AN EXIT (via Hardly Art), cemented their anything-goes aesthetic, blending anthemic hooks with jagged edges and earning praise from FADER, Consequence of Sound, Ones to Watch, and even the ever-opinionated Anthony Fantano. Now, ill peach returns with EAVESDROPPING, a raw, fly-on-the-wall exploration of human connection across nine tracks.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Madds Buckley has partnered with PLUS1 so that $1 per ticket goes to supporting Conscious Alliance&#8217;s mission to end hunger nationwide and feed families in need. In an increasingly artificial world, singer-songwriter&#160;Madds Buckley is staying undeniably human. An RIAA Gold-certified artist with more than 2 million monthly listeners, Buckley pairs clear vocals with unexpected melodies and a deep-rooted instinct for storytelling. Her music sits at a unique intersection: honest, accessible, and highly personal storytelling that often incorporates themes found in anime, video games, and narrative-driven media. Even at its most fantastical, her music never loses sight of what&#8217;s real.&#160; Following My Love Is Sick, Buckley continues to evolve with a new run of releases, including &#8220;Overboard,&#8221; &#8220;Concept Without Proof,&#8221; and &#8220;Human to You,&#8221; ahead of her forthcoming album Simple Binary and a Complex Phrase (out October 16). Expanding her sonic and thematic scope more than ever before, the album interrogates the artificial to get to the heart of what&#8217;s most real: loving, losing, and persevering through the pain.&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[The new Lipp record blasts through lightyears of sounds and styles, connecting&#160;new school funk with vintage synth nostalgia.&#160;Blending loops and breaks with a pile of synths and drum machines the record&#160;pushes into new territory with advanced arrangements and cinematic textures.&#160;From long summer walks through NYC and early morning sessions in Paris cafes&#160;to stacks of Czech jazz from around the corner. This album is fueled by curiosity&#160;and audio experimentation as well a deep dive back into the influential sounds of&#160;Mo'Wax, Warp, and early Ninja Tune releases. This adventurous collection of beats feels both unmistakably Lipp and refreshingly evolved. Lipp has released music with Alpha Pup, Pretty Lights Music, his label Old Tacoma Records, and now Young Heavy Souls. Lipp's most recent record Viper Venom dropped in May of 2024. VV blends Lipp's classic old-school electro-funk vibes and high-fidelity future synth breaks.Lipp also comprises half of the band Lipphead with renowned NYC producer Blockhead.Whether he's in the studio, DJ booth, or behind a synth with his live band, If Lipp is making music he's at home and locked in. Jason Huber is a Nashville-based DJ, producer, and lifelong instigator of good trouble, known for nearly 20 years of open-format and house music sets that have powered festivals, clubs, bars, and more than a few late-night renegade pop-ups. Long before and well beyond his work with Cherub, Huber built his reputation behind the decks, blending genres with a precision that comes from living inside the craft rather than chasing trends. His parties have become their own mythology: unpredictable, high-energy gatherings where he treats every crowd the same way he treats his studio work, with curiosity, intention, and zero fear of pushing the moment somewhere new.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Stephen Dawes is a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer whose music tells a coming-of-age story set against a backdrop of handcrafted alternative pop, rooted in loose beat-craft and breezy Stratocaster-spun riffs. Born in New York, Stephen spent his early childhood in a small town on Cape Cod before moving to San Francisco. He began piano lessons at 4-years-old, started writing original songs by fourth grade, and in High School joined jazz band and learned how to produce. Stephen was first discovered as a freshman in college when he recorded an acoustic rendition of Katy Perry&#8217;s &#8220;Teenage Dream&#8221; that exploded with over 200 million Spotify streams and over 50 million views on YouTube. Since then, he has released two EPs titled &#8220;Up At Night&#8221; and &#8220;The Day We Met&#8221; and a handful of tracks including &#8220;Reputation,&#8221; &#8220;Irregular&#8221; and &#8220;Symptoms.&#8221; In early 2025, Stephen was the opening act for Matt Hansen&#8217;s European tour, and also opened for Griff in 2024 on the Vertigo Tour. https://stephendawesmusic.com/ (https://stephendawesmusic.com/)&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Born and raised in Connecticut, Jake Minch burst onto the scene in 2023 with his hit single &#8220;handgun,&#8221; racking up 1.3 million views on the song&#8217;s initial teaser and earning support from the likes of Noah Kahan, Lizzy McAlpine, Zach Bryan, Gracie Abrams and FLETCHER. Over the last few years, the 2for2 projects/Mercury Records artist has garnered a dedicated fanbase through his deeply personal lyrics on love, growing up, and grief. This past July, Minch released his highly anticipated debut album George, produced alongside acclaimed producer Tony Berg (Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift). Written between Los Angeles and Connecticut, the 12-track project explores grief, guilt, and identity through the lens of Minch&#8217;s early twenties, capturing the angst and disorientation of leaving home with striking vulnerability. The album has received widespread acclaim from outlets including NPR Music, Stereogum, The Line of Best Fit and Ones to Watch, with TMRW Magazine declaring, &#8220;Jake Minch is Your Favorite Songwriter&#8217;s Songwriter,&#8221; while Holler calls the record a &#8220;Great American Novel&#8221; cut into pop songs. Minch has toured the world over, sharing stages with the likes of The Head and the Heart, Jeremy Zucker, Ben Abraham, Holly Humberstone, Grace Enger and Sadie Jean, and recently wrapped a successful two-part North American headline tour in support of George.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Sophie Truax is the kind of artist who, when faced with a bad Tinder date, builds a puppet of them and writes a song about it. A Seattle-born, self-taught multi-instrumentalist and lifelong crafter, Sophie fuses music, handmade puppets, and razor-sharp comedy into a tiny felt universe that&#8217;s entirely her own - a world where the rolly backpack kids win, the weird girls get the encore, and every uncomfortable feeling gets purged by making things with your hands.&#160; &#160; Behind the playfulness of Sophie&#8217;s exterior is a deceptively sharp creative practice and deep exploration of self. The audience that found her didn&#8217;t hit &#8216;follow&#8217; because she chased a trend, but because her vulnerability and uniqueness is a breath of fresh air in the cluttered and exhausting timeline we all know too well. &#160; &#160; The puppets aren't the bit - they&#8217;re parts of Sophie. Representations of the parts of yourself most people shove into a box in the corner of their minds and never have the courage to stare at in the face. Sophie shows others not only to explore your inner world deeply, but to show it compassion and care. Through example, she accepts all the wonky parts of herself through humour and felt.&#160; &#160; Sophie&#8217;s EP &#8220;Can&#8217;t Split a Worm&#8221; pushes deeper, using the same disarming whimsy to crack open the hardest parts of being a person - heartbreak, self-doubt, the quiet shame of being a little too much or not enough for the room. It's pop music as a mission of un-embarrassment, acceptance of every version of you. The title itself is self-aware. We can&#8217;t have good without bad, pretty without ugly, a version of yourself you like without a version you don&#8217;t. You can&#8217;t split a worm. (contrary to popular belief, the worm just dies.) Keep up to date with Sophie Truax on Instagram &#124; TikTok &#124; YouTube &#124; Spotify &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Am&#233;lie Farren started writing songs at twelve because she needed somewhere to put things. That hasn't changed. At 18, she writes alt-folk/alt-pop songs specific enough to make a listener feel like they're inside a moment they know well but never had words for. Her debut release suffering has passed 24 million streams. Unsweetened Lemonade (2024) followed with over 70 million, finding listeners across the US, UK, Europe, Asia and South America through songs that people kept coming back to. Her debut album Airheaded, produced by Michael Keenan in LA, is a collection of songs about obsession, complicated attachment, and the odd parallels between the person causing harm and the person on the receiving end. In May 2026 she has a new EP, Infanescence. Where Airheaded was about what people do to each other, Infanescence is about what time does to a person. It sits in that gap between still feeling like a kid and knowing you're not one anymore. -- Lilith Max is a master of storytelling, weaving tales of enchantment and whimsy. Her fantasy-folk-inspired music pulls the audience into a world of knights, myths, and magic, giving listeners room for their imagination to roam free. Originally from northern Germany and living in the U.S., Lilith began diving into the world of myth and folktale early on. German stories like the Erl King (Erl K&#246;nig) and fairytales like Rumpelstiltskin sparked her curiosity, so she incorporated their magic into her music.&#160; Through alluring melodies, Lilith also highlights the deeper meanings in her work. In tracks like &#8220;Circe&#8221;, &#8220;Peasant&#8217;s Throne&#8221;, and &#8220;Call Down The Dragon&#8221;, the artist addresses topics of female rage, social pressure, climate change, inner struggle, and more. With catchy rhythms and deep lyrics, Lilith creates layers of enjoyment for those who wish to dance along and those who wish to hear her powerful words.&#160; Having spent much of her teenage years in the acting industry of Hollywood, Lilith integrates cinematic drama into her stage and online presence. Fans know Lilith Max for her unique music skits and the soul-piercing expressions she casts at the camera. On stage, Lilith becomes a whirlwind of dancing and twirling, evolving her performance with every shift of the music.Lilith Max&#8217;s exceptional vocal range and vocal control are a hallmark of her music. She fills the air with angelic high notes and pulls the audience into the depths of her low timbre. -- Rabbitology is the project of Nat Timmerman&#8212;a world that was pulled from her odd-running mind. A little land of the harebrained and burrowing. Simply follow the three-legged rabbit prints until you&#8217;re knee deep in this world&#8217;s eclectic soundscapes, and here you will discover a collection of memoirs turned into fantastical sonic short stories. Stay as long as you like. Make this world your home too. It&#8217;s a little unusual in here, but that&#8217;s life!]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Sassy 009 is the shape-shifting project from Oslo-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Sunniva Lindg&#229;rd. After finding early acclaim as a trio with 2017&#8217;s Do You Mind EP, Sassy 009 rebooted as a solo vehicle in 2019, later evolving into 2021&#8217;s sultry, bass-driven Heart Ego mixtape.&#160; But for Lindg&#229;rd, the forthcoming Dreamer+ is her true debut: a concept-driven album pieced together from nearly four years of studio effort, and an ambitious attempt to take complete control of her artistry. Steered by freshly distorted vocals and elements of grunge, shoegaze, &#8216;90s beatronica and gauzy hyperpop, the album is a record of self-discovery and self-effacement at once, studded with guest contributions from Blood Orange, BEA1991 and Yun&#232; Pinku.Dreamer+ is work of fiction at its core, a grim fairytale in which dreams and emotions are processed through a landscape of shapeshifting characters, dark forces and moral responsibilities. Sent on a mission to an abandoned town, Lindg&#229;rd is her own main character, hurled into a &#8220;magical but distorted dream-like world&#8221; after a fatal encounter: &#8220;Her love for Jakov is absurdly intertwined with his dying; no path could lead her away from it.&#8221; The album opens with &#8216;Butterflies&#8217;, a premonition of the rocky road that Dreamer+ is heading down: scorched breakbeats ripped apart by the revving of a motorbike and notes of Air, Yves Tumor and yeule. The pop-forward shoegazing of &#8216;Edges&#8217; gives way to slinky broken beats on &#8216;RIP Time and Thoughts&#8217;, lambent post-Tirzah R&#38;B on &#8216;Dreamer&#8217; and &#8216;90s alt-rock memories on &#8216;My Candle&#8217;. Dev Hynes wraps his instantly identifiable vocals around &#8216;Tell Me&#8217;, a grungy torch song led by Lindg&#229;rd&#8217;s Blood Orange-inspired guitar. Singer-songwriter BEA1991 adds a silky touch to &#8216;Sleepwalker&#8217;s Pendulum&#8217;, spookily providing the same harmonies that Lindg&#229;rd had originally imagined for the song. Irish dance diva Yun&#232; Pinku drops daisy-fresh vocals into &#8216;Mirrors&#8217;, as Lindg&#229;rd confronts a recurring dream where &#8220;you can't tell where the way out is &#8211; you just see different angles of yourself.&#8221;&#8216;Ruins of a Lost Memory&#8217; completes the journey by sampling a melancholy melody written by Lindg&#229;rd&#8217;s parents &#8211; both classically trained musicians &#8211; for a Eurovision Song Contest entry in the &#8216;90s. Coming at the end of an album about love, loss and mourning, it&#8217;s the final piece of the puzzle &#8211; &#8220;like the credits after the film ends,&#8221; she says.With her fantasy story as scaffolding, Lindg&#229;rd sets herself free as a songwriter, taking inspiration from the organic electronica of Gorillaz, the hazy moods of Boards of Canada, Nirvana&#8217;s grunge pop logic and even Lil Wayne&#8217;s deftly distorted vocals. Tackling recording from the ground up, she felt herself finally &#8220;stepping into that producer role,&#8221; imagining herself writing for a live band instead of &#8220;being lost in the chaos of 200 layers,&#8221; she laughs.&#160;Dreamer+ is an album Lindg&#229;rd has imagined for years. It has taken on many forms, shapes and sizes. Like those morphing silhouettes you see at nighttime, this distinctive body of work has been an ever-evolving assimilation of disciplines. Its final form is a crystalising constellation of connected works&#8212;a bricolage of thought, feeling, and creative desire. Each element offers a familiar entry point into the same underlying themes: identity, memory, and the shifting boundaries of self&#8212;where the dreamer is the only witness / only one who remembers.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Advance tickets for this DJ set from Pixel Grip are now sold out. There will be a limited number of spots available at the door when we open at 9pm, and throughout the night as space allows. &#160; Formed in 2019 Rita Lukea (Vocals)・Jonathon Freund (Synth) ・Tyler Ommen (Drums) &#160; Pixel Grip&#8217;s sound is both seductive and confrontational &#8211; a dark, club-driven sound that blends elements of synth-pop, EBM (electronic body music), house, and industrial into their own edgy, danceable, and immersive ethos. &#160; Pixel Grip is known for their high-energy live performances and moody, avant-garde aesthetic. In 2024 they toured as direct support to noise-rock contemporaries, HEALTH. Followed by a (sold out) North American headline run of their own, which included a stop at the iconic punk festival RIOT Fest. Often exploring themes of desire, power, and liberation, underground cult classics such as &#8220;ALPHAPUSSY&#8221; &#38; &#8220;Demon Chaser&#8221; have been used in campaigns by fashion powerhouses such as VERSACE &#38; Alexander Vauthier. Relentless touring and placements with major brands have helped push Pixel Grip to the forefront of indie music. Pixel Grip&#8217;s ensuing LP (Summer 2025) arrives as they prepare to expand their reach into the EU &#38; UK for the first time. &#160; &#160; On their third album, Percepticide the Death of Reality, the Chicago-trio looks within and around at a shifting landscape of fragmented perceptions and social disengagement. The album marks an important part in each of their lives, both musically and personally. Recorded over three years in Los Angeles &#38; Chicago, each member privately faced their own demons, including betrayal, addiction, and neglect. "Percepticide" a portmanteau &#8211; a term that originates from &#8211; "percipere" (to perceive) and -cide (to kill) &#8211; in essence "the killing of perception." &#160; &#160; &#8216;Percepticide&#8217; is a cognitive distortion and a symptom of trauma &#8211; beliefs you hold to be true are shattered &#8211; as you question everyone and everything around you. My dream is that the expression of my rage can help someone else feel empowered and at the very least, less alone. You&#8217;re never stuck, and you&#8217;re never alone, say Lukea. &#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Jenna Raine&#8217;s songs brim with hope, heart and wide-eyed wonder. The Dallas-born singer-songwriter turns life&#8217;s little lessons, moments of bliss and unforgettable memories into the kind of pop music you&#8217;ve got to sing with the windows down. She&#8217;s tallied more than 466M total streams to date, fueled by early hits like &#8220;It Is What It Is&#8221; and her breakout smash &#8220;see you later (ten years).&#8221; The viral favorite, which exploded on TikTok and helped earn her a deal with Warner Records, first appeared on her major-label debut EP see you later &#8212; a project filled with hope, growth and a bright-side view of heartbreak. Jenna&#8217;s breakthrough success has included performances at the 2023 MTV VMAs Block Party, recognition from Rolling Stone, Billboard and V Magazine, as well as two Girls&#8217; Life Magazine covers. She has collaborated with artists including Joshua Bassett (&#8220;Don&#8217;t Let Me Down&#8221;) and Aodh&#225;n King (&#8220;Still Worthy&#8221;), and supported David Kushner on his European tour earlier this year &#8212; all while continuing to expand her sound with her Only Started Growing EP featuring the viral hit &#8220;Roses.&#8221; Jenna closed out 2025 with the release of &#8220;Just 15&#8221; and &#8220;Talk of the Town,&#8221; alongside supporting Avery Anna on her The Let Go Letters Tour. Jenna returns with new music this year, unveiling &#8220;It Takes A Village,&#8221; and &#8220;What Would I Say,&#8221; out now. Her new music once again showcases her signature blend of heartfelt storytelling, unforgettable hooks and resilient optimism as she looks ahead to her debut album, Jeans, Boys &#38; Jesus, set to arrive August 14. With unstoppable momentum and a luminous outlook, Jenna Raine is poised to bloom into the new year &#8212; one loved-up ballad at a time.&#160;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Florida-born artist ivri builds the world she sings from&#8212;one shaped by D.I.Y. alternative,intense pop, shoegaze, rock, and sci-fi soul. Her emotionally raw writing and genre-blurringsound have earned billions of views, hundreds of millions of streams, and early praise fromoutlets like OnesToWatch. &#160; &#8220;I&#8217;m building a world for ivri,&#8221; she says. &#8220;It&#8217;s my real name, but also an identity I can observefrom the outside. I love science fiction, fantasy, whimsy, and storytelling. Whatever you&#8217;refeeling&#8212;heavy, nostalgic, wronged&#8212;I have a song for it. I fit anywhere.&#8221; Raised in Daytona Beach, she grew up fast, helping care for three siblings with autism anddeveloping the deep empathy that now informs her music. She once planned to become amineral physicist or join the Air Force, but music eventually pulled her in. At 14, she wasdiscovering Gang Starr and Sam Cooke alongside Twenty One Pilots, Bring Me The Horizon,and Deftones, and drawing inspiration from films and shows such as Steven Universe,Adventure Time, and the cult classic Killer Klowns from Outer Space. She began postingvocals online for fun&#8212;but everything changed when she heard her voice sampled onSadBoyProlific&#8217;s &#8220;Alone,&#8221; a future hit with nearly 150 million Spotify streams.&#8220;That moment showed me music could change my life,&#8221; she says. With her vocal samples gaining momentum online, she kicked off her solo career with therelease of a series of EPs including Sometimes (2022) and The Star Factory (2023), leading toher 2025 breakthrough, The Theory of You. Lead single &#8220;tower of memories&#8221; became aphenomenon&#8212;4.5M+ video creations, #1 Rock on SoundCloud, #1 on the TikTok Viral Chart,and nearly 100 million on-demand streams within months. Referring to her artist persona, &#8220;ivri came out of the star factory and got hit with reality,&#8221; shesays. &#8220;The heavier feelings in my adulthood brought heavier sounds and emotions to themusic. I had personal issues with relationships, family, and friends. For me, &#8216;Tower ofMemories&#8217; is about the people who enter and leave your life&#8212;and how the memories canswallow you whole.&#8221;]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[SLOW MAGIC&#160; Darkness and light, aggression and gentleness, ecstasy and reflection: these dualities define Slow Magic&#8217;s third and strongest project to date, Float. An expansive and inventive compendium of modern electronic pop, the enigmatic producer&#8217;s latest spans a multitude of genres and moods resulting in a listening experience that makes for its own journey. Written and recorded over the past two years, work on Float commenced shortly after touring behind 2014&#8217;s dreamy How to Run Away, the record&#8217;s jagged and surprising new sounds taking shape after a leisurely trip to Iceland in order to &#8220;try to get away&#8221; from things. A subsequent trip to Japan&#8212;wherein Slow Magic performed in the country for the first time&#8212;further solidified what would go into the album&#8217;s sonic and visual motifs. Float marks a number of &#8220;firsts&#8221; for Slow Magic: it&#8217;s the first time the producer&#8217;s worked with live drums, as well as the first time they&#8217;ve brought guest vocalists into the Slow Magic world, from MNDR and Swedish electro-rockers Kate Boy to like-minded producer Tropics and Antlers frontman Peter Silberman. But it&#8217;s a testament to Slow Magic&#8217;s unique creative approach that these different voices coalesce on an album that presents a uniform vision even as it embraces exuberant creativity. Music has always provided a retreat for anyone looking to lose themselves in pure sound, and Float is a trip that no one will regret taking. Recently, he put out his 5th studio album, forgotten feels, and in 2024 he plans to put out a how to run away bonus disk around the 10 year anniversary of his second album. In 2026, slow magic plans to release his 6th studio album &#8220;emotion engine&#8221; in the summer. with local support from Hotel Pools]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[THIS SHOW HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED TO SEPTEMBER 10TH. ALL TICKETS FOR THE ORIGINAL DATE WILL BE HONORED. &#160; Matthew Dear was raised in Kingsville, Texas, and bounced between trailer homes, raised on a diet of country and rock until his older brother, inspired by the developing romance between South Texas and electronic music, gifted him cassettes by artists like Depeche Mode and Nitzer Ebb. His dad was a fisherman and managed an Elk&#8217;s Lounge where he played guitar. Matthew moved to Michigan with his parents in 1995 and at age 16 began recording acoustic guitar music to 4-track tapes. In the late &#8216;90s, he discovered the abandoned warehouse rave scene in Detroit and started making techno music on ensoniq sampler. In college, he delivered pizzas and threw his own raves in the pizza shop basement on the weekends. &#160; Matthew met Sam Valenti IV at a college house party and became the founding artist on the Ghostly International label. Matthew had already brought his demo cassette to the legendary Carl Craig who said he was looking for something more &#8220;mind expanding&#8221; and encouraged him to keep working on his music. His first release on Ghostly (also the label&#8217;s first) was a split 12&#8221; with the late Dave &#8220;Disco D&#8221; Shayman. The title track was called &#8220;Put Your Hands Up For Detroit,&#8221; which a decade later would be sampled and turned into a #1 International hit. Matthew also helped shape the sound of Ghostly&#8217;s dancefloor offshoot, Spectral Sound, with several releases under his techno alias Audion. Twenty years later his music would be released by Carl Craig&#8217;s label as the project Brain. &#160; Matthew&#8217;s bedroom-crafted debut album,&#160;Leave Luck To Heaven, came out in 2003 to praise in the New York Times and a four-star review from Rolling Stone. His&#160;Asa Breed&#160;and&#160;Black Cityalbums allowed him to drift further out, the latter being named Pitchfork&#8217;s Best New Music. In 2012 he released&#160;Beamsto further acclaim and toured internationally with Depeche Mode and Hot Chip. &#160; In 2016 Matthew retired from a life of wanton excess, after years of drug and alcohol-induced malaise. For his 2018 album,&#160;Bunny, Matthew collaborated with Tegan and Sara as well as Detroit&#8217;s Protomartyr, and Ricardo Villalobos. Throughout the years he has remixed Spoon, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and The Postal Service and lent his ideas/ears to General Electric, Microsoft, and Ford. MGMT invited him to remix every song from their album Little Dark Age. In 2021, Matthew released&#160;Preacher's Sigh &#38; Potion: Lost Album, a collection shelved from a decade earlier. Matthew teaches and lives in Michigan with his wife, three kids, three goats, and a dog.]]></description>

                                <description><![CDATA[Tyondai Braxton Splayed Werks (Erased Tapes) By Piotr Orlov &#8220;My philosophy on releasing music has changed a lot, but also my idea of what it means to be an artist. The important part of the artist&#8217;s job is to archive what you're doing&#8212;what you're excited about, what you're dealing with, what you're reacting against&#8212;putting that in a form that documents your life&#8230; At the moment, we're all looking out into the world, dealing with the helplessness in a time of war, media over-saturation. What's the role of the artist in that? I think the archiving of any particular creative idea in the moment is one of the most significant things an artist can do now. Things I previously thought were important&#8212;&#8217;this piece means so much to me,&#8217; or &#8216;listen to how this chord arrived&#8217;&#8212;are actually much less so.&#8221; Even at first blush, Splayed Werks, Tyondai Braxton&#8217;s fifth album, his first full-length release since the recording of his 2018 symphonic work, Telekinesis, reveals itself as unlike what came before and marks the beginning of a new chapter with UK label Erased Tapes. First off, there&#8217;s a lot more music here, 70+ minutes of pure electronics and sound design. Plus, it&#8217;s divided in a way that&#8217;s out-of-step with the longer forms the 47 year-old composer/producer has previously imagined into being. Of the album&#8217;s 15 tracks, more than two-thirds are sub-five minutes. The album brings together mostly newer works alongside pieces composed across the past decade, some of which appeared previously as standalone releases. To fully represent the scope of this period, Braxton incorporates the Dia / Phonolydian (2022) and Multiplay (2023) singles into Splayed Werks, foregrounding the project&#8217;s long-form compositional arc. Along with &#8220;Salt Point&#8221; and previously unreleased commissioned works such as &#8220;4 Zones&#8221; (2018) and &#8220;K Space&#8221; (2021), these pieces were always part of a broader, evolving body of material. Here, they are re-edited as newer versions and remastered by the excellent Matt Colton at Metropolis Studios in London and woven into a continuous narrative. The result is not so much a compilation, but a record that traces its own lineage in real time: a body of work composed across years, now fully realized as a single, cohesive statement.]]></description>
