We’re not sure whether to laugh or cry!!! It’s a cartoon, so it has to be funny, right? Yeah… but it’s also pretty representative of a few meetings we’ve all been in! Big thanks to our man in Chi-town - Lee Jarvis for sending over. Definitely brightened up our Monday!
Enjoy!
Great music is all about creating something unique, and ever since the introduction of computers and electronic devices to the world of production late in the last century, musicians have been pushing the boundaries by creating new and wonderfully experimental sounds; some going on to be iconic genres, some fading into insignificance.
Wherther you’re a fan of genre [...]
Here’s a cool little vid to start off your week. Our buddy Chuck Love; the newest addition to the incredible Dope Den Productions stable has just returned from a tour of Australia with a cool video diary from his walkabouts around Sydney and Melbourne! He gets some great behind the scenes footage from the DJ [...]
They’re not exactly house music, but I flipping love The Headlights. I first caught the indie / pop / rock 4-piece, who hail from Champaign, Illinois at SXSW in 2008, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Their live performances are something of real beauty… resonating a sound and energy that will make you dance, sing, [...]

Well, unfortunately we didn’t get the chance to visit Bestival this year, but we hear Beardyman was one of the feature performers, and definitely an artist that brought something a little out there to the festival proceedings!

We try and remain as impartial as possible when it comes to the digital vs analogue debate, but that’s in no way to say we don’t embrace both! Vinyl will always be our first love, but the digital toys (the ones we remember fearing would limit our creativity - ha!) are just getting better and [...]
Home Sweet House is a brilliant, small film produced by John Pappas, that takes a fascinating and insightful look into Chicago’s house music scene.
As many of you will know, House music was born way back when, at The Warehouse in Chicago, by the one and only Frankie Knuckles. The legendary party with a sound of [...]
Playing for Change is quite simply amazing, and we absolutely love the idea! This kind of attitude embodies what My Cuppa T is all about too, and it makes us so happy that others are making things really happen on a global scale, just by spreading music and love, far and wide.
As we all know [...]
Boys and girls, we have found your new favourite spot for music exploration! Metrogum officially launched this week, offering everything you need to know, see and hear about underground music… primarily in your local areas. The guys over at Metrogum are taking a refreshingly different approach. Gone are the tired days of highlighting more content [...]
We love it when the music that we really feel gets credit from commercial circles. If it’s done in a cool way (and shit, what’s cooler than Quicksilver and surfing?!?!) then it can really help promote an underground track, while offering the brand a cool association with a relevant artist.
Here’s a perfect example, as [...]
