  3. Coachella 2013: The xx, Nick Cave steal spotlight from headliners

    There were two questions heading into the xx's set on the main stage of the Coachella Valley Music &amp; Arts Festival on Saturday night. Could a band that's evolving by stripping more out of its songs hold the attention of a large festival crowd? And would R&amp;B singer Solange make a guest appearance for a second week in a row? Both were clearly answered. Solange unfortunately didn't appear, once again making Weekend 1 the hotter ticket, but the xx continues to transfix by turning its songs into mini pieces of performance art.

  6. First impression: 'The Great Gatsby' soundtrack teaser on YouTube

    One of the most hyped soundtracks of the upcoming movie season is for &ldquo;The Great Gatsby,&rdquo; Baz Luhrmann&rsquo;s adaptation of the classic F. Scott Fitzgerald novel.&nbsp; For those who didn&rsquo;t do their assigned reading in high school, the story takes place in the 1920s in the fictional Long Island setting of East Egg and West Egg. As such, the book happens at the birth of the Jazz Age, when high-energy brass bands worked with stomping, New Orleans-inspired rhythms to create dance floor thrills.
