Meet Ryn Weaver, The Mysterious Twenty-Something Behind This Summer's Best Song
The internet is going crazy over her insanely-catchy song “OctaHate,” but where did she come from?
Ryn Weaver is officially a big deal.
She put up her song “OctaHate” last week, and it wasn't long before other artists were tweeting about their obsession with the bouncy, life-giving track.
The song was created with an all-star team of Charli XCX, Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos, and producers Cashmere Cat and Benny Blanco.
Ryn hanging with Benny Blanco and Jessie Ware back in April.
And though that team sounds a little too good to be true, don't think it's the mastermind plot of some major label. Ryn responded to a commenter on a Stereogum article explaining how the collaboration was a more a matter of right time-right place, and hard work:
“hehe that would be nice to have some major label money. Actually, i met benny at a party a year back and showed him my sound cloud… he had already been working with cashmere cat a bit… and he showed michael some of my music that I had produced and written on my own… and we all kinda just started to make some music. I'm signed to friends keep secrets… and indie. this is actually more of a passion project for them but it's my vision. I know i'm not supposed to respond to internet trolls but i was bored. xx”

Study: Cell Service On The New York Subway Still Sucks
The city’s last great dead zone isn’t going quietly. Updated with comment from MTA.

Of the major drawbacks to riding the New York City Subway — the body odor, the traces of human waste on the seats, the rodents — perhaps the least intractable is the awful cell service. When Transit Wireless announced that cell and Wi-Fi service would be available at all 277 stations by 2017, it was a sign that one of the last great dead zones was being brought to heel by the forces of convenience.
But not so fast! According to a new study by the Global Wireless Solutions, a mobile benchmarking firm, cell service on the subway is still basically terrible. Over three days in early May, GWS engineers ran mobile benchmarking tests on trains throughout the city, and found that only two stretches of track provided data network access with more than a 50% success rate: the 7 train between Grand Central and Times Square (74%) and the E train from 50th Street to Lexington Ave/53rd Street (52%). Here's the full breakdown:
1. 7 train (Times Square to Grand Central): 74% success rate
2. E train (50th Street to Lexington Ave/53rd Street): 52% success rate
3. 6 train (28th Street to Grand Central): 35% success rate
4. B, D trains (Columbus Circle to Grand Street): 23% success rates
5. 1 train (Columbus Circle to South Ferry): 20% success rate
6. A, C trains (Columbus Circle to Fulton Street): 16% success rates
7.L train (8th Avenue to 1st Avenue): 15% success rate
8. 2, 3 trains (Chambers Street to Wall Street): 14% success rates
9. J, Z trains (Delancey Street to Broad Street): 12% success rates
10. (Tied) E train (Canal Street to World Trade Center): 11% success rate; N, Q, R trains (Lexington Ave/59th St. to South Ferry): 11% success rates
11. F Train (Lafayette Street to East Broadway): 8% success rate
So, for those of you worrying that you might have to work on your commute, take heart. It will be years before you have to put down your John Green paperback and send an email. “Sorry, I was underground” will be a safe excuse for the foreseeable future.
