Fossil Records: Gina X Performance’s Nice Mover

December 12, 2022 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Gina X

Sometimes, for whatever reason, great art slips past audiences and remains woefully underappreciated. Which is why we’ve created an essay series called Fossil Records, devoted to helping people discover lost and obscure work that never got its due. Today, we look back at Gina X Performance’s innovative debut LP Nice Mover, a seminal work from a group that had a […]

Video of the Week: Doprah “Stranger People”

July 3, 2014 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Doprah Indira Force Stranger People

New Zealand has housed a covertly excellent music scene since at least the ’70s, but the outre duo Doprah is a different kind of beast altogether. Featuring production like the glitchiest of Anticon’s new wave and vocals that outspooky the bulk of the 4AD catalog, Doprah is startling weird even before you get to their […]
