Bjork Cancels More Tour Dates, Four Tet Sells Out in 10 Minutes, The Worst Tour of the Summer & More
After canceling a string of headlining performances in South America last month, Bjork has been forced to pull her appearances at Spain's Primavera Sound and Portugal's Optimus Primavera Sound, due to further issues with her vocal chords. No word as to her replacement -- we're hoping for Kraftwerk. [ConsequenceOfSound]
Check out two new Four Tet tracks from his forthcoming 12" "Jupiters" b/w "Ocoras." Pretty rad. Four Tet's also curating this Fugazi-inspired Brixton all-nighter with Caribou, Pearson Sound, Pangea, Floating Points and more in November. Unfortunately, it sold out in 10 minutes. [SoundCloud]
Here's the tour you've been waiting for: this July, Grimes, Diplo, Pretty Lights and Skrillex will travel around Canada on a private passenger train. The tour was inspired by the 1970 Festival Express tour, which featured Janis Joplin, the Grateful Dead, and The Band, but will suck a whole lot more. [Pitchfork]
Hudson Mowhawke and Lunice have paired up for a collaboration EP, TNGHT, which hits shelves July 23. Check out their rumbling trap rap/Timbaland-influenced track "Bugg'n" here, and a snippet of "R U Ready." Heavy. [Prefix]
Though its release is a few months away (July) we have to mention this upcoming Strut compilation This Ain't Chicago: The Sound of Underground UK House & Acid 1987-1991, compiled by Richard Sen of Padded Cell fame. We'll hit you with a link to stream soon enough (hopefully), but for now, check this
