On September 6′th something both sad and awesome is happening. The inevitable tribute album to David Bowie will be released which presumably means that he, after five decades and 24 full albums, is retiring. Sad because well… Bowie retiring is a sad event to expire (and there ain’t nothing you can say about THAT),...

So I suppose this should start with some form of introduction. Hi, I’m Marlon, from Durban, South Africa, and am a new contributor here at imtheinternet. I met Ulf and Ryan at Roskilde 2010 at Pavement’s, awesome, if under-appreciated, Sunday PM set.  I’ll drop a post on my thoughts on Roskilde in the coming days but...

After some months of traveling, nine blurry days at Roskilde Festival and in general way too many days spent away from The Internet, I think that we are slowly getting ready to start up the blog again, and what better way to do that than with an Au Revoir Simone remix from someone who’s...

I know most people tend to think of Roskilde as primarily a rock festival, but I believe this year’s lineup has got something for everyone. During the next couple of weeks I’ll shuffle the cards and present a mixed bag of tunes each Monday. This week I’ve mixed a fine blend of the hardest...

If there is one thing I wish I were better at, it would be supporting local music. We show our love and support for the big boys, but often don't pay attention to the little guy who actually needs us. Even in the indie world, where most acts aren't even close to rolling in...

We love M.I.A. for so many reasons here, but especially today. Besides being the rebel role model for all young ladies, and a hero to a lot of dudes too, Maya Arulpragasam makes some killer music and it should be coming to you soon. What makes today special is that she is has released...
