TOURIST Magazine
Keeping an eye on the cool kids is much easier when they're all sitting at the same table having dinner and you find that chink in the wall and try to go for a quick peek.
That's where TOURIST Magazine come in; this isn't a looky-lu into some fashionista's daily shoe choices, but moreso a view into the better things.

The Ruby Suns interview
Ryan McPhun is a musical Krishna; the multi-talented operator behind The Ruby Suns has a new album out on Sub-Pop called Fight Softly. With an almost entirely new sonic palette compared to that of 2008's lush Sea Lion, the Sun's new album represents a trip out into sparse synth land. I spoke to Ryan during my lunch break.
Dick Diver, 'Arks Up'
Dick Diver sound like underground 80s Australia. Arks Up recalls the best parts of the Hunters & Collectors discography: the songs gather around raw, trudging bass lines that sound best filling the pungent, carpeted rooms of Brunswick pubs.
With clever, multi-member pop songwriting, The Go-Betweens also come to mind: the accents not dropped but accentuated; the guitar work sharp, tonal, puncturing.

Here We Go Magic
Judging from its recent prodigious output, the borough of Brooklyn must not have much room for working-class immigrants and black hip-hop heads with its huge influx of folk-strumming, falsetto-loving, glitch-savvy, new age Gen Y beardos.
Here We Go Magic is Brooklyn denizen Luke Temple's new band.
