BB Sabina’s latest single, ‘Multitude,’ is a track that lingers. It’s nearly seven minutes long, and honestly, it might not be long enough. Moving through trip-hop’s shadowy corners, it picks up the tension of post-rock and absolutely glows with hypnotism. Beth Uhe’s voice drifts through like a lone ballerina, upstaged by nothing else. It’s layered …

Meet: Resurrecting ‘Dropout’: We chat with White Hills as they and GNOD Reignite a Classic
Fifteen years ago, psych-rock explorers White Hills and GNOD put out Dropout, a collaboration that, at the time, was just another experiment in their ever-expanding catalog. Yet, unbeknownst to them, it would develop a cult following, resonating deeply with fans long after its release. Now, in 2024, the album is being reborn—not just as a …
