Ella Yelich-O'Connor, Lorde's given name, gave one of her most intimate interviews ever to Billboard, in which she talked about everything from idealistic dreams to the state of pop today. "People respond to something that intrigues them, instead of something that gives them all the information — particularly in pop, which is like the genre for knowing way too much about everyone and everything," she muses. Lorde, instead Hermes Kelly Handbags, wants to follow in the footsteps of Mazzy Star, Portishead, and this generation's go-to enigmatic musician, The Weeknd. As much press as she's getting these days, a small fraction of it is actually about Ella herself. ective of her life’s narrative, omitting less savory details involving her working-class roots and, where revisionism fell short, outright destroying personal documents and other records.

Announced at the CEDIA conference this week, the company's new wireless speaker platform promises to deliver 24-bit, uncompressed audio to either a pair of speakers or a full 7.1 surround setup. To do that, the platform employs the WiSA open standard, which operates in the 5.2-5.8 GHz range, along with some more proprietary tech from B&O and Summit Semiconductor. The end result of that, the company says, is not only speakers that provide a "second-to-none multi-channel wireless experience," but ones that are compatible with any WiSA-compliant device.
