Defense lawyer Brian Steel wasted little time Friday resuming his withering cross-examination of Kasey “OTF Jam” Hester on the fifth day of rapper Lil Durk’s murder-for-hire trial in Los Angeles. “Going home, that’s your mission?” Steel asked after confronting Hester with a seemingly damaging jail call with his wife. “Me, trying to go home? Yes,” Hester replied. In the jail call from May 2023 played in court Friday, Hester was heard telling his wife to “trust” him. He had just been arrested riding in a car with a gun while on parole after serving 12 years on an attempted murder…

Daniel Donato was only a teenager the first time he stopped me dead in my tracks. It was a random night in 2013 at Robert’s Western World, the last true honky-tonk on Broadway in Nashville, and Donato was mesmerizing the beer-drinking crowd with his solo in the Allman Brothers’ “Ramblin’ Man.” At the time, the New Jersey native was filling the role of lead guitar prodigy in the Don Kelley Band, a group known for its lifer frontman and a revolving door of young, hotshot guitarists. But there was something about Donato, all fresh-faced and long-haired, that stood out. Whether…

The Edinburgh-born, London-based musician known as Venus Ex Machina presents herself as a storyteller, though the music she’s released to date has mostly been instrumental, drawing from dark ambient and post-industrial techno. Her stories take shape in harsh sound, offering dim-lit scenes of a post-apocalyptic world where the human voice is just another texture. On “Jericho,” her first new solo release since 2022, Venus Ex Machina retains the industrial soundscape but places vocals front and center, processed and twisted to sound like a machine trained on Gregorian chant. The mood is unworldly, perfect for a song about an insomniac dwelling…
