  Their debut album has been out for almost two years and somehow the outside world is only just getting to know them as that band that has that backward music video on YouTube. However you know them, Mute Math (or TBTHTBMVOYT, for... short?) is hitting up Sonar in Baltimore tonight for an evening of art rock/post rock/electro rock/whatever the hell music snobs and critics want to label it as.

• Posted Weekly Music Agenda to DCist
  MONDAY >> This ain’t not J-Pop, we swear.

An Emerson graduate, Jette spent most of...

  Written by DCist contributor Jason Cox Good news for all you electronic fiends out there - you no longer have to fly overseas to hit up the Mecca of nightlife, Ibiza. OK, that might be a bit of an overstatement, but a new dance metropolis borrowing the island’s name opened in D.C. last weekend and has not only drawn the attention of local clubbers, but some of the city’s biggest party planners as well, namely...
