Dr. Austin I. Dodson and his wife had looked forward to an evening of classical music on the night of Feb. 21, 1959, when things took a tragic turn, as two men beat the 67-year-old to death in Monroe Park. So shocked were the citizens of Richmond at the death of the respected doctor, the then-head of the urology department at Medical Center of Virginia, that it caused a years-long debate over the fate of the park itself.

“Hunting,” the track that opens Keith Hudson’s 1974 album Flesh of My Skin, Blood of My Blood, probably doesn’t sound like any reggae song you’ve heard. It certainly doesn’t sound like many I’ve heard, its intoxicating and mysterious lo-fi swirl of psychedelia a kind of genre unto itself. It’s under two and a half minutes long but endlessly rich, atmospheric but rendered unrelentingly heavy by the sheer density of its bass—the kind of low-end blowout that would put any soundsystem to the test.

Stereolab spent the better part of two decades reshaping their pleasantly pliable and mellifluous indie pop, but in the beginning, at least, things were much simpler. The noise pop songs on their debut album Peng! and singles collected on the early compilation Switched On comprised one-note drones played on buzzing Farfisa organ over hypnotic Neu!- and Velvet Underground-informed pulses.

On August 15, Los Angeles shoegaze group Shaki Tavi will release new album Minor Slip via felte. And today, they’ve shared a new video for “Breaker,” which is the second single from the album. The clip is directed by Sean Stout and features the group’s leader Leon Manson crawling on a checkered floor, frolicking in a field and other fitting visuals to go with its propulsive, hazy sound.
