Caroline Polachek was the musical guest on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert Tuesday night (October 17th), and she took the opportunity to debut a brand-new single called “Dang.”
“Dang” feels a bit like if Imogen Heap ever had the opportunity to hop in the studio with the late Sophie. Produced by Polachek along with Cecile Believe and Danny L Harle, it sees the artist lean more into her hyper-pop side, juxtaposing her definitively natural vocals against a whimsical, industrial beat that almost sounds like it could’ve been made with household objects.
As for her Colbert performance, Polachek suited up in a modern shirtdress, necktie, and glasses, emulating the college professor you might’ve had a weird crush on but also terrified you a bit. In between hip swings and dramatic arm gestures, she presented a slideshow filled with infographics that seem to argue the trials and conundrums of being famous for your art.

Caroline Polachek appeared on The Late Show to debut her new single, “Dang.” Dressed as a professor of sorts, Polachek performed the song in front of a lecture screen that switched slides as she sang.
“Dang” follows Polachek’s second solo LP, Desire, I Want To Turn Into You, which she released earlier this year. The song, produced by Polachek and Cecile Believe with additional production by Danny L Harle, is leftover from the album’s recording sessions. Polachek has been teasing the track for the past month, dropping it in DJ sets.

There are chemicals mixed into the magical focal bond in "Queens of the Qing Dynasty." It's perhaps incomprehensible in normal terms but easier to feel in the visual textures of a film about two misfits.
The sophomore feature of Canadian director Ashley McKenzie (the 2016 "Werewolf"), "Queens of the Qing Dynasty" expresses a fixation on particles: the freckles, the frost, and the fingernail dust. Twenty minutes into the film, we're privy to a medical appointment where a scope is lowered into an esophagus and slithers into slimy innards. An unorthodox rhythm is spun out of the mechanical wriggle of the tube and the dilated pupils of the patient, the wide-eyed Canadian teen Star (Sarah Walker). Such textures, visual and sound, define Star's existence as a neurodivergent teen.
Star speaks in her own terse vernaculars. Her perpetual facial placidness is not to be mistaken for stoicism, vacancy, or aloofness. She holds a...

Avant pop upstarts Magdalena Bay have revamped their celebrated 2021 debut album, Mercurial World, for a new deluxe edition set to arrive Sept. 23 via Luminelle Recordings.
Mercurial World Deluxe features a mix of new songs, remixes, alternate versions, fresh orchestral arrangements, and more (there’s even an 8-bit version of album highlight “You Lose!”).
“The Deluxe is a mish mosh of sorts, an amalgamation of new songs that didn’t originally fit the flow of Mercurial World, of reimagined versions of existing album tracks by us and some talented remixers, plus some special secrets,...
