Danger Mouse just announced he will be collaborating with Jack White, which makes White the billionth musician Danger Mouse has worked with after Beck, the Gorillaz, MF Doom, Cee-Lo, James Mercer, U2, the Rapture, Sparklehorse, Black Keys and, oh, just about everybody else. He’s the hottest commodity in collaboration right…
We’re coming up on the weekend before Valentine’s Day, which means there is plenty planned for lonely hearts and weekday shut-ins if you want to get your love on. Hell, we even have plenty to do for people who’d rather spend Valentine’s Day weekend watching movies and listening to authors…
We just had one of our first messy snow storms of the year, causing plenty of people to slip and slide around the streets of Denver and curse the snow gods and subsequently the snow plow gods. We decided to catch up with a snow plowman to figure out exactly…
In a statement alongside it’s quarterly and annual fiscal report, Activision, the company behind the Guitar Hero series, effectively put the axe on the series. Over the course of the last two years, the series has seen dropping sales due to a market that’s completely saturated and an expensive peripheral…
There’s no denying that Scott Pilgrim vs. the World tanked in the theaters last year, but that doesn’t mean the film hasn’t garnered a huge cult following already. It’s rare for a film so new to hit the midnight-movie circuit, but when you have one with as rabid of a…
Hot Throttle is a game — er, experience — from Cactus and Doomlaser, best known for, well, not really known for anything, but best associated with the weirder side of gaming. Case in point, the premise of Hot Throttle is that you play as a naked man who believes he…
Sometimes all it takes to catch our eye is a nice big landscape on a flier. Even if we can’t quite make out what cities are being mashed together here, this one still manages to peak our interest in the show and the material based solely on our passing interest…
Anti-piracy and counterfeiting prevention company Envisional recently released a report detailing the 10,000 most popular files crossing the streams of BitTorrent trackers. Porn has taken the top, uh, seed, followed closely by non-porn film, while music was near the bottom of the list. What happened?…
The beginning of February is kind of a lull in the new release schedule, but we’ve dug through the crap to find some truly exceptional stuff this week. In fact, there are some things we’re truly excited about, especially Space Jam, which for whatever stupid reason we’ve held onto our…
Suburban Home has been releasing mix tapes for a free for quite a while now, but it seems as though they might have reached the numerical limit of the format, because they’ve started over. That’s right, we’ve got another Suburban Home Presents Mix Tape Volume 1, which might cause slight…
The commercials of the Super Bowl are one of the biggest draws to the game for some people. Viewers love to see the somewhat witty, incredibly overproduced and expensive miniature films announcing that Volkswagen is the best, Detroit is better than where you are and Fox is the greatest station…
Luther Campbell (aka Uncle Luke, aka 2 Live Crew front man, aka sister-paper Miami New Times columnist), has placed his hat in the race for mayor of Miami-Dade County. Nope, we’re not kidding, but he’s hoping to make a real change to the system, and he’s taking the whole thing…
After a week of cold and snow, Friday couldn’t have come soon enough. It’s a good thing it’s the first of the month too, because that means there is plenty to do for folks willing to venture off into the chilly night. It also means it’s Super Bowl weekend, and…
We’ve always been fascinated with risky jobs, but there are few in the world more insane to anyone with a fear of heights than a high-rise window washer. There is no amount of money you could pay us to rappel off of a giant glass building. Thankfully for people who…
If there’s one thing we’ve proven time and time again, it’s that Denver loves its burlesque. What better way to show your appreciation for the timeless act of girls seductively removing their clothes and dancing than to learn a little about the history? You can do so this weekend at…
If you’ve got an itching to get some learning in this weekend in lieu of your usual plan of drinking too much, hurling and then passing out on a friend’s couch, we’ve got a perfect event for you. Scott Banning of the itchy-O Marching Band and Cacheflowe will be giving…
If you took yesterday off because you were scared of the roads, then chances are you’re returning to work today with a couch-potato hangover and no desire to get any work done. Good thing we’ve got Shift Freedom for you, because it’ll get your brain back into working shape and…
First Friday is usually a day reserved for people who like art wander around the city and stare at pretty pictures and talk to each other about how they have no money, but if they did, boy, they’d totally buy that painting. However, as this week’s flier shows us, it…
With a cold and blustery day in front of us and the new Fleet Foxes song just released, we’ve been thinking a lot about what type of folk song we really enjoy. So much, in fact, that we’ve put together a handy flow chart for picking the right type of…
The beginning of February is the perfect time of year to release media of all shapes and sizes for a number of reasons. Namely, it’s because half of the country is bound to be snowed in and with nothing to do at some point during the month. There is nothing…
There is something special about a monthly challenge where the only goal is to get musicians to write and record new songs. Like National Novel Writing Month and Album Writing Month (which also happens to be in February), the goal of the RPM Challenge is to push musicians to get…
Every year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences picks what they think are the best original songs of the year from a shortlist of soundtracks. The problem, of course, is that their specialty tends to lead them no further than a few Randy Newman songs. We’re certainly not…
