Kaskade is invading downtown Los Angeles in July on his Freaks of Nature Tour.  July 27, 2012 at Staples Center to be exact.

The promo video at least has to get you slightly hyped.   If you caught him in Sahara and the dancing buildings on screen - you were probably sonically and visually stunned.   The sensory onslaught continues this summer as the EDM takeover takes residence in the Lakers household.  I'm certain you probably won't find a better party that night - at least not a more energetic one.  With tickets reasonably priced at the low cost of $20 - you can expect that Staples will get CRAYBANS.

Don't miss out.  Cop your tickets here if you want to guarantee your entry.  Tune back into @supergoodmusic frequently to figure out how you can win some tickets from us for free or just sign up for our CONCERT BLAST newsletter at http://www.jaminthevan.com/blast.html to access more chances to win free tickets!

Tic Tic Boom! Release Before The Sun Rises

Tic Tic Boom! released a brand new EP today - Before The Sun Rises - and its admittedly pretty damn good.  The release comes amidst a hectic three months that already included multiple Official SXSW performances, 5 sets at Coachella and a handful of other shows and also brings a residency all the month of May at Lot 1 Cafe.

Starting on Wednesday May 2nd you can expect to hear a handful of Tic Tic BooM! originals each week of May at Lot 1 Cafe.  I strongly encourage you not to miss the opportunity because Boom's latest record shows a lot of growth.  Not only have they begun incorporating more electronics and self-made vocal samples,  but the hooks are pretty catchy ("Constellation Boy" is a rocker).  Before The Sun Rises is a welcome departure from lots of the melancholy LA indie rock I'm used to these days and also a fresh take on synth pop.   Judging by their recent climb up Hype Machine's popular charts with "For Feeling" (reached #9 on the popular twitter chart) - it seems the blogosphere agrees.  

You can sample the new sounds on their website and you can watch them jam some of their latest tunes live in Jam In The Van below.





For a taste of their older material - check out this relatively new video for "The Open" which was on their 2011 release Reasons and Rhymes.

Glorification of Drug Use - "Molly"

The latest from Cedric Gervais - "Molly" - glorifies the use of Mole, Molly, molecule, MDMA or whatever you refer to the EDM culture drug as. As the lyrics note - it makes you want to dance... and the video has a lot of skin.

Are you disgusted by the lyrics?

Still obsessed with The Neighbourhood's "Sweater Weather." Favorite indie ballad right now. Enjoy it before you hear it everywhere.

When's a rapper going to rap/sing over a sample of it? Who should that be?

Porter Robinson - Language/Sunday Coachella Set

My first instrument I ever owned were turntables, and it wasn't until I played a drum machine that I was able to learn how to play kit - so there is no denying that there is SUPERGOOD love for all things electronic and electronic music culture.

Porter Robinson is killing the game right now.  He delivered a set of epic proportions and monstrous energy at our BandPage HQ party at SXSW - and he is slated to probably do something similar for the next two weekends in Indio, CA for Coachella.  He is playing 4:20-5:15 on Sunday.  To tease the audience on what some of the drops might sound like - he dropped this poppy ass banger big one - "Language" - on his soundcloud yesterday.

Cults, Cults, Cults in Boulder, Boulder, Boulder

Get down with a legit, not too spooky or insane Cult tonight - Friday the 13th - in Boulder, CO when Cults make their way to Fox Theatre!

The quality, nostalgia inducing indie rock act got a lot of fan fare in 2011, and with good reason. Songs like "Go Outside" and "Abducted" are hooky (in an indie/hipster sort of way), fun and light on the ears.

You can win tickets to tonight's Boulder show by emailing contest@supergoodmusic.com or tweeting out @foxtheatreco @supergoodmusic and @supergoodco in the same tweet. Now go swarm that...

Only The Horses...

Scissor Sisters are back with more anthemic smangers. This one, "Only The Horses", got us moving in the SGM office - and with good reason - Calvin Harris and Alex Ridha from Boys Noize are on the production and deliver a summer dance-floor energizer that could exhaust you.

With Scissor Sisters anchoring vocals on the track too - its totally gaymous. I bet its already raging Tigerheat...

Adventure Club Dubstep Hits Boulder for SOLD OUT Show (Win Free Tickets From US!)

If you haven't explored the sonic world of Adventure Club - get ready for a wild ride. They take indie songs I'm often just becoming familiar with, dose them with bass, add some extra juice and sexy drops and out emerges a remix that I'd much rather listen to than the original.

They've done it with Foxes "Youth," Flight Facilities' "Crave You," and even Metric's "Collect Call." You can download all of those for free off of their Soundcloud. You can also get a free pair of tickets to see them at their SOLD OUT show at Fox Theatre in Boulder, CO on Saturday April 7th by participating in our Adventure Club contest. All you have to do is take a trip over to twitter and mention @supergoodmusic @supergoodco and @foxtheatreco in the same tweet or comment on our facebook page about how much you want to see Adventure Club.

Get To Hilltop Hoods Early for Kenan Bell!

Are you hip to Kenan Bell? Maybe you should be if you're a Los Angeleno. He's hometown talent that's made various splashes over the last several years, including "Like This" - which was on the NBA 2K10 soundtrack and reminds me a bit of Childish Gambino.

Kenan's lyrics are often playful, embedded with imagery and informed by the experience of being a 6'5" black male raised in "lily-white Los Angeles suburbs challenging stereotypes." Sounds like a person I'd want to meet - let alone hear rap. You can do both tonight at The Satellite when he opens for Hilltop Hoods.

Vans Warped Tour Kick Off Party Recap

Upon SUPERGOOD's late arrival to the Vans Warped Tour Kick Off Party - the first move on the agenda was to check out the film screening "No Room For Rock Stars." The movie was epic and captured the rawness of what bands go through in the day and life of the Vans Warped Tour. One bands that really stuck out was Forever Came Calling, who also opened up the night of live performances. Next up, Dead Sara who arguably totally stole the show. Their electrifying performance was hard to match but The Used tried their best to compete as the surprise guest for the night.

Overall the kick off party was an awesome night of mosh pits, booze and hot goth chicks; everything a punk rocker could ask for. It only gives a glimpse of whats to come from the Vans Warped Tour summer mayhem. Tickets are on sale now get them while they last.
