This fresh sound is like an Acoustic, Alternative, Pop love child with a kick ass spin on it by DJ Vice. If you haven’t heard of this amazing new artist from Malaysia you will soon! Yuna took MySpace by storm and again took center stage at MTV headquarters in Time Square where she was nominated as one of MTV Iggy’s Best New Bands in the World. We are so excited to so much more from her!

For the 2% of you whom haven’t already seen this, you have to watch it!

Rumor has it that Dre, Snoop & the Tupac hologram may go on an all out tour after the success at Coachella. Looks like musicians have 1 more line to add to their wills now – “Yes I am ok with a Hologram me after I pass.” Technology – you never cease to amaze us.

The real question now is; would you pay to see a hologram concert of an artist from the past?

This Tuesdays tune comes from Hudson Creative Director, Ben Taverniti’s Spring Inspiration playlist.

We’re ready to do some dancing barefoot at Coachella this weekend.

Dub Fx is a Hudson Favorite! This Australian native uses a Boss RC-50 Loop Station along with a GT-10 effects pedal to create vocal-only beats, and then sings & raps over the top to create a 360 sound that is uniquely his.

If you haven’t heard his music, check it out now before he hits Coachella. Only 10 days left until Coachella!

We have fallen under the spell of this kick ass band from Canada. Arkells rocked it out at SouthxSouthWest this week and we can’t wait to see more from them! Check out their lastest album here

We are so excited to partner with this awesome band with 1Band/1Brand this week! Check it out for an exclusive offer for this Music/Fashion Collabo!

Celebs went all out fun with their looks and took to the Pink Carpet this past Sunday for the MTV Europe Music Awards!

As expected Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber dominated on wins. The live performances included heavy hitters like Rihanna, Cold Play and our favorite Queen featuring Adam Lambert.

We can always count on Europe to provide us with scintillating, jaw dropping moments and show stoping performances!

Year after year, as college students return to their dorms and high school kids finish their summer reading, one MTV event heralds the beginning of another school year. Before the books open, the cultural mainstay celebrates all things music video, with the annual Video Music Awards. This year, elevating the VMAs to a whole ‘nother level is main performer, Lady Gaga. Last night in Los Angeles, moonmen were distributed to the best and brightest in music, from Foster the People to Wiz Khalifa. And in addition to the queen of the little monsters, performers including Adele, Bruno Mars, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, and Young The Giant are set to entertain.

Here are some of our favorite moments:

• Bruno Mars did an incredible job paying tribute to Amy Winehouse.
• Lady Gaga never disappoints with reinventing herself as Jo Calderone while teaming up with Rock & Roll legend, Queen’s Brian May.
• Chris Brown always knows how to put on a show but this time he took it to new heights!
• Lastly, we loved Jay-Z & Kanye West performance especially since it was our theme song for our ENK Vegas tradeshow events

In addition to the many joys of summer – long days, warm weather escapes, ice cream treats – comes the opportunity for music lovers and fans alike to take part in outdoor concerts. Every year, the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn plays host to a selection of musical acts, ranging from well known artists to up and comers. Though the venue for the concerts has changed over the years from McCarren Park to the latest iteration at the Williamsburg Waterfront on Kent Avenue, each experience is better than the next. This summer boasts weekly musical moments, upstaged only by the brilliant view of Manhattan’s skyline as a backdrop. Check out the full list of Williamsburg Waterfront Concerts below!

In the quiet kitsch Hanbury Arms pub near to Essex Road, Islington, people are coming together to do what many haven’t done for decades: sit quietly together to listen to an entire vinyl. Classic Album Sundays is quite a simple concept but is resonating with many. Classic albums include such corkers as Human League’s Dare, Bob Marley’s Exodus and – coming up in September – Pink Floyd’s seminal album Dark Side of the Moon. Organizer Colleen Murphy presents the album to the discerning crowd with some background information and then everyone listens in silence to the entire vinyl album. The monthly event is popping up at festivals including Vintage at Southbank during August and, considering the steady flow of listeners, is sure to continue for many months to come.
