East India thinks they've won, but it's James Delaney who appears to have the upper hand, as always.
There were so many Huge reveals in Taboo Season 1 Episode 7 that I barely know where to start, so let's get right to it.
Helga was so convinced that Delaney killed poor Winter that she dimed out Delaney to East India, but of course she's wrong.
I don't think anyone out there really thought Delaney did the deed, but it's good to know that it was the evil East India responsible for it.
And it was heartbreaking to see Winter join the cast of dead spirits that haunt Delaney: poor guy.
Lorna is really feeling Delaney now, but he seems resigned to the fact that he is damned, and doesn't want to take anyone else with him.
Lorna: I know you didn't do it.
Delaney: And how would you know that? [grunt] I very well may have.

Val Lewton never had to be 'discovered,' actually. Life magazine awarded him his own photo layout and the critics praised him as the maker of a new brand of psychologically based horror films.

Kygo could have gone the easy route. After being crowned the unofficial poster child of tropical house for his pan flute synth-heavy remixes back in 2014, he would have been well within his rights to resign himself to exclusively releasing music that fell within the confines of the genre.
Sometime around the end of last summer, however, the Norwegian DJ/producer began to demonstrate that he wasn’t content to be summed up so simply as an artist. When he uploaded the entirely instrumental “Piano Jam” series to SoundCloud, not only did he reveal his capabilities as a multi-instrumentalist to the world – in a way, he foreshadowed what was to come on his debut album.
Now, Cloud Nine has arrived, and it exceeds all expectations.
Taking creative risks can definitely backfire. Were Kygo not the caliber of musician he’s proven himself to be, the manifold styles incorporated into each track...

Ahead of his debut album and signature festival, Kygo has released another taste of what the Cloud Nine LP has in store.
Constructed around an evocative chorus, the track’s thickened ambiance calls to mind imagery of an abandoned cathedral, and there’s a dampness in the space between frequencies. Percussion is uncharacteristically cold against the track’s high reverb atmosphere, and there’s even a bit of pizzicato to complement James Vincent McMorrow’s scampering vocals.
Most notably, however, is the absence of Kygo’s trademark tropical modulations. It’s quite apparent that “I’m In Love” is drawn from a much deeper well than previous singles, and we’re frothing at what else the 24-year-old Norwegian has prepared for the album.
“I’m In Love” is the last release before Kygo‘s Cloud Nine becomes available in full on May 13th. While we’re having trouble waiting for the disc to drop,...

On "Nothing Left on Unsaid: Gloria Vanderbilt and Anderson Cooper," he works with newly minted Oscar nominee Liz Garbus ("What Happenned, Miss Simone?") to capture the expansive life of Gloria Vanderbilt, a member of one of America's most storied families and the mother of CNN anchor Anderson Cooper. What camera did you use? We shot with the Canon C-300 and, for 90% of the film, my large set of Canon Ef lenses, zooms and primes. Occasionally we used other primes, like Cineprimes, or Ultra Primes.Why was this the right camera kit for the job? Our work on this film went from complicated two-person interview setups,...

When an artist like Jenaux puts out something unique, it excites us music writers – and when they go the extra mile and make our jobs easier by telling us what to call it, it’s just the icing on the cake.
“Big room funk” is what the NYC-based producer has taken to calling his stylistic synthesis of progressive house and future bass. In the case of his remix of Kygo and Will Heard’s “Nothing Left,” it takes on a particularly Madeon-like quality, especially where these elements are fused with the instrumental tracks of the original.
2015 has turned out to be the year that Jenaux came into his own as an artist; after releasing somewhat formulaic progressive house tracks, he began to perfect the sound which he would be able to call his own. Seeing as how it’s all been remixes so far, however, it remains to be seen...

With a highly anticipated performance at both Osheaga and Lollaplooza this weekend, Norwegian producer Kygo has dropped his latest single.
Titled “Nothing Left,” the track is a slight departure for the DJ. While it still contains some of the sounds that he’s so well known for, the song is decidedly more down-tempo and vocal-driven than some of his previous efforts.
A tropical drop near the end does give the song that typical Kygo feel, but for the most part, it sounds a bit different than what we’re used to hearing from him. Different isn’t a bad thing, though, and in the case of “Nothing Left,” we’re definitely digging what Kygo has done.
Give the song a listen above and let us know what you think of it in the comments section below.

This post originally ran in April 2014, when David Letterman announced his retirement. We are rerunning a slightly updated version with David Letterman hosting his last Late Show tonight. From the very first episode of his NBC show, David Letterman, who will retire tonight, let you know what he was about — and that it damn sure wasn't the Usual. When the host's producer got caught within camera range onstage and crawled on all fours into the wings, Letterman called attention to him rather than ignore him. "Nothing left to chance here, you know?" he said. "Well, by this point, you're asking yourself what else this show has," he went on, and waited for an out-of-context game-show-style buzzer to sound — Blaaaaap! — and crowed, "Well, we have one of those!" His inaugural guest was Bill Murray, who at that point was to TV sketch comedy and film what Letterman was to talk...

Foo Fighters' HBO series Sonic Highways visited Washington D.C. Friday night, which marked a homecoming of sorts for Dave Grohl: The rocker was raised in the Virginia suburbs outside of D.C. – his mother still lives there – and he started out drumming for area acts like Mission Impossible, Dain Bramage and "his favorite band ever," Scream.
In addition to recording the Sonic Highways track "The Feast and the Famine," Grohl also provides an extensive look at a pair of homegrown genres that became the backbone of the D.
