Ellie Goulding’s smash hit "Lights," off her debut album of the same name, peaked at No. 2 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 and No. 1 on mainstream top 40. While the top charted song was driven in synthpop and electronic dance music, Goulding’s sophomore album, Halcyon, dives more deeply into her strong vocals. To find inspiration for her second disc, the singer-songwriter traveled back to her native Herefordshire, England, to record with producer Jim Elliot. But surprisingly, one producer who did not work with her on Halcyon was boyfriend Skillrex (also known as Sonny Moore). She

British songbird – and the apple of Skrillex’s eye – Ellie Goulding has been working on her much-anticipated second album and we've just learned it will finally be released in October with the title Halcyon, according to NME.

Fans got their very first taste of new material earlier this month when Goulding released a cover of Active Child’s “Hanging On,” which features guest vocals courtesy of Brit rapper Tinie Tempah.

Chicago – Harvey Milk was the sort of grassroots political hero that would’ve never fit into our modern world of corporately controlled politics. He was a man of his word, and he had many of them. His fundamental belief in equal rights for all citizens provided the fuel for his tireless work ethic, intoxicating exuberance and extraordinary bravery.
In the opening moments of Rob Epstein’s profoundly moving 1984 documentary, “The Times of Harvey Milk,” the titular San Francisco supervisor fearlessly rides atop a car waving to supporters, well aware that he’s an open target. The footage is juxtaposed with a taped will Milk recorded a year before his assassination in November 1978, when he was gunned down by a former colleague, Dan White (the city’s Mayor Moscone was also killed in the bloodbath). Considering Milk’s status as one of the first openly gay politicians elected to public office in America,...
