What would you get if you mix the Bob Dylan of our days with a nice-looking pair from London, favourite Brooklynites, an elegant offering directly from Down Under, epic electronics via Boston, a talented actor that also happens to be a fairly decent rapper, an 80s gem you’d probably never heard before, a classic from [...]

If there was someone who had a profound love for music, that person was Sir John Peel. The legendary British DJ and broadcaster literally lived for eclectic sounds that pretty much ruled the BBC Radio 1 airwaves, from 1967 all the way to his death in 2004. Peel was responsible for showcasing the best of [...]

It’s a new dawn, It’s a new day, It’s a new life for us and yes, we’re feeling pretty damn good. We trust you have all been able to overcome your respective Cinco De Mayo/weekend festivities ’cause it’s Tuesday and you should be ‘up and atom’ by now. If the promise of a new day [...]

Reasons to celebrate? You betcha, especially if it is during the first day of the week. Here at The WILD we waste no time sorting out the tracks we like to hear, the ones that are revolting the blogsphere and our humble iPods. That being said, why not share the love with our fellow readers? [...]

Music lovers everywhere are coming off their very own ‘holiday’, Record Store Day, celebrated just this past weekend. Many would say it’s just another way to support your fellow vinyl joint, but its true purpose is to celebrate the art of music. It basically brings artists and fans together under one big frenzy of album/single [...]

It’s hard to believe that this is WILD playlist number 30. The big 3-0! 300 songs have made it to this weekly posting and hopefully there will be plenty of more to come in the near future. For now we will refrain of talking about the importance of music and how it affects our lives, [...]

April is the cruelest month. At least that’s what T.S. Elliot said on the first line of his modernist poem The Waste Land. But still, there is a lot to dispute about that: the warm weather has finally settled in, the flowers are blossoming high and regular folks are flooding the parks for their wish [...]

A new month means new beginnings, new opportunities, and new ways to make it better than the previous month. At The WILD, it also means new and cool features, new outlooks at life and our surroundings, new trends, and of course – new music. In this edition of Music To Start The Week With, we once [...]

German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche was best known to 19th-century’s society as a radical fellow who dared to question the value and objectivity of truth, with a substantial influence that went within and beyond the boundaries of philosophy. He was also a poet, a composer and an accomplished piano player. One of his most famous quotes, [...]

Weather is still messing with our minds, people. NYC has not escaped yet out of this confusing ‘warm winter’ wave and with it, the affluence of early alergies affecting men and women of any age. All while a beeming sun collides most days with a chilly wind. In late March. WTF? Just like Donna Summer [...]

It’s always nice to revisit a few topics we went through on earlier editions of “Music To Start The Week With”, mainly because they are pretty universal, like the power of music and images that inspire. This time we found an iconic photo of the even more iconic Grandmaster Flash in all his glory…mixers, turntables, [...]

It’s that time again: another Monday, another month of the year, another WILD playlist to satisfy your needs. A few things are happening on March, one more sincerely important than the other. Still, it’s nice to enjoy some fresh air accompanied by a sweetly curated selection of tunes. In this edition of “Music To Start [...]

More than a decade ago, a Detroit-born girl often quoted as the ‘Queen of Pop’ once said that ‘music makes the people come together’. Boy, wasn’t that hell raiser right? When you think about it, that catchy line from a chart-topping hit single is not just a line, but a complete and truthful statement of [...]

Here at The WILD, we are sure that our American audience must be lying in bed or somewhere else pretty and calm, celebrating President’s Day without a care in the world. Well, except for maybe one thing: we need spring here ASAP! Though the Sun has graced us with its presence over the past few [...]

It doesn’t matter if you claim to hate a festivity supposedly created for economic purposes; everybody has a special someone, a lover, a boyfriend or a girlfriend, a ‘boo’ to cater unconditionally. And if you’re single, then a nice set of friends will do just fine. February is the month of love and this week [...]

There’s a lot of shakin’ going on these days with certain events, one a bit more exciting than the other. Sure, the Super Bowl was great and all (especially that EPIC halftime show with Madge and company) but it’s over now, so drop it. Ok, maybe just have one more dish about it until it’s [...]

It’s easy to draw inspiration from anywhere in your surroundings. Whether you’re a creatively driven person or not, you can’t deny the power and influence of the world around you, a catalyst for amazing and functional things, not only for yourself but for everyone else. The possibilities are endless; it could be a news report [...]

Welcome to Monday January 23rd, 2012, the day that marks the beginning of Tthe Year of the Dragon’, according to the Chinese Horoscope. Though we left the Christmas/New Year celebrations far behind, it’s still not too late to do some serious planning for the near future and have a great time while we’re at it. [...]

Every once in a while, people (and things) need a retouch. It’s natural to go past that old saying of “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” when you have something good and you just want to improve it. Our design team sure applied that principle, and with their help, we are now able to [...]

Everybody knows it’s awfully freakin’ COLD in New York City and we can’t do anything about it, except sporting our best winter wear to get past this weather. There’s another thing we can think of to keep our bodies and minds warm: a brand new WILD playlist, of course. As usual, we take time every [...]

It’s the end of the party…but the morning doesn’t necessarily have to be gray. 2012 is finally here and we couldn’t be any more excited about it, so why should you feel upset if it’s Monday? We sure hope you had some lovely festivities but right now it’s time to get a move on and [...]

As promised last week, we are bringing a special edition of our accustomed WILD playlist, fully dedicated to the current festivities. Picking out holiday-inspired songs might be an easy task, but it’s also easy to fall into clichés a-la “White Christmas”. What we decided to do this time around was to go outside the box [...]

We’re getting closer and closer to the end of this year and before we get to there, we’d like to thank the guys and dolls who stopped by the Red Egg this past Thursday to celebrate the birth of our printed issue Visionaries. Also a big thank to those who couldn’t make it, but were [...]

2012 is just around the corner (only three weeks away!) and there’s a lot to look forward to, especially when it comes to good music. For this edition of “Music To Start The Week”, we’re setting our iPods to the artists/groups that will make our earth shake in the upcoming 12 months and those who [...]

‘Tis the season to rejoice! Indeed, it’s officially that time of the year when we let our hair down, pour a couple of Eggnog glasses and set the beloved Advent calendar to countdown the days before Christmas Day. We’re beyond thrilled for obvious motives (plus our “Visionaries” issue is just days away!!!) so what’s best [...]

It’s time for our accustomed WILD PLAYLIST, hoping you guys had a lovely Thanksgiving weekend. We have now reached our tenth edition of MUSIC TO START THE WEEK WITH, and what a milestone that is: 100 songs by various performers, chosen far and wide for your weekly delight. We’re extending last week’s celebrations by thanking [...]

Each week, yours truly struggles with how to address WILD readers prior to the traditional Monday music suggestions. But this week is really a no brainer, because it’s all about two simple yet meaningful words: thank you. For nine weeks straight, we’ve been giving you nothing but the best sounds we can find and therefore, [...]

Another Monday, another opportunity we’ve got as people to start anew and outdo what we did the previous week. We sure hope you all have rested this past long weekend, enjoying some quality time while paying homage to the men and women who fought for us. With Sunday long behind us, do not sob or [...]

It’s business as usual here at The Wild. While others are complaining about the beginning of the week and longing for that first taste of coffee in the morning, we start off fresh with high spirits bringing you the best content we can possibly find, with some nice music in the background. As it happens [...]

We’ve gone past the makeup and extravagant disguises of Halloween and into the eve of November. And while the end of the year might be a reason to be tearful and nostalgic for some, here at The Wild we couldn’t be more excited, as the launch of our first printed issue “Visionaries” is just weeks [...]

It’s the fifth edition of our series of “MUSIC TO START THE WEEK WITH” and it feels like we’ve been doing them for more than just one month. Guess it’s time for us at The WILD to give a big ‘thank you’ and smooch all the faithful readers out there for supporting all of our [...]

The time has come for us to reveal our music suggestions for the next 7 days and as always, it comes in ‘crescendo’ mode: we start with calmer tracks and end with some danceable beats to have you ready for Friday. Think of this playlist as your weekly guide to what’s new, fresh and timeless, [...]

They say that every picture tells a story. Well then, so does a mixtape, or a playlist, or whatever you want to call it. At the beginning of each week, we take a bit of our time to come up with a selection of tracks that we think will suit your needs throughout the next [...]

Aren’t you glad Monday has finally arrived? If you’re an avid reader of The WILD’s blog, chances are you are pretty darn happy. It’s perfect timing for a second part of our weekly music playlist, selected by yours truly, where nothing but the best and most diverse sounds are able to fit in a tight [...]

It’s that time of the week again, the very beginning of it. Back to the same ol’ rutine and hectic schedule, plenty of good reasons to claim that Boomtown Rats classic your own and scream with all you’ve got: “I Don’t Like Mondays”. But here, at The WILD, we’re bound to shake things up a [...]
