Ariana Grande has clapped back after the Trump administration used one of her songs – again – to soundtrack an attention-seeking anti-trans TikTok video

That gated snare on “In the Air Tonight”? A studio accident. The DX7 that’s on every power ballad? $200k worth of Fairlights nobody could afford. Here’s the actual gear behind the ‘80s sound

Bandcamp Fridays—on which we waive our revenue share and pass the funds directly to artists & labels…

Damn, this is sad news. Considering how great voice he still has, I thought his health was in a similar condition. Then again, he is 75. I never got to see The Voice of Rock live.

Our continent has a long tradition of preserving and sharing knowledge through oral literature—songs, proverbs, and legends.

Fender is committing a brand suicide with their overprotective attitudes towards the Stratocaster’s design, and looks like Thomann is joining the ranks of those who won’t bend the knee.

Taking direct inspiration from Lilith Fair, the inaugural event features a lineup of only female artists or female-fronted bands, including Chappell Roan, Bikini Kill, Doechii, Mitski, the Breeders, Garbage, Katseye, Santigold, and Rachel Chinouriri.

Net profits from ticket sales are directed toward nonprofit organizations dedicated to advancing and advocating for women and girls, such as the Center for Reproductive Rights, Planned Parenthood, and Johns Hopkins Center for Indigenous Health. All of the artists have agreed not to take a profit from their performances.

New York has a similar statute that was recently employed by singer Casandra “Cassie” Ventura in her case against Sean Combs. She filed a sex-trafficking and sexual assault lawsuit against the music mogul in 2023, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, just days before the expiration of a lookback window.
