...Jealous of Roses,” the song that follows, runs through a similar vein, featuring falsetto funk vocals and an addictively choppy beat that is perfect for your “Shaft” moments. Also prominent on the album are textured Dabrye and J Dilla-type hip-hop break beats that, while not as catchy as the other tracks, do have bits of melody that seem to sneak up on listeners. Unlike most of his past releases, this album does feature a significant amount of vocal work, but this takes a back seat to the beautiful beats that...
...magazines—like to point toward the band’s influences, which include the likes of Animal Collective and spin-off Panda Bear, Wyss and Chettri have most certainly forged a new path, incorporating elements of electronic, noise rock, experimental, and, at times, even hip-hop beats—all the while paying the utmost respect to the vibe of the Gulf Coast shoreline they grew up on.

Carmen Hough, 55, who this spring completed a 12-week workshop in Jonesboro, Ga., puts it more bluntly...

Most enthusiasts are people in their 20s and 30s who find themselves drawn to the sounds of early video games, to blend those electronic bleeps and bloops with rock, pop and hip-hop. Chiptune is still relatively obscure: in 2007, hip-hop artist Timbaland got in trouble for sampling a tune composed by a Finnish chiptune musician in one of his songs. That same year, a rapper named Megaran released a Mega Man-themed album that landed him a deal with video...
