    Neon Indian: "Around the time I start to write a record, I stop listening to new music altogether."

    Neon Indian (due tonight at the Bluebird Theater) got a boost early in its career by online media, and by the time of the act's first album, Psychic Chasms was released, there was a pretty big buzz around his blend of synth-driven, R&B inflected pop songs.

    Giving Massive Attack's Mezzanine another shot

    ​ I never really got into Massive Attack. Actually, to be honest, most of the '90s downtempo/trip-hop stuff always alluded me for one reason or another.
