Radiohead News:
The Jay-Z/Radiohead Mashup to End All Mashups (Please?)
From feedproxy.google.com at 05/01/09 10:15 PM. 0 comments.
Oof alert! Remember that time you were drinking Purple Stuff with your buddies and throwing out possible mashup project titles: Weezyer, The Fall...Out Boy, Animal Collective [ft. Animal from the Muppets], Jaydiohead. It was dumb; it was great. But there's a difference between spitballing while listening to The Grey Album and actually making a full 10-song album of Jay-Z/Radiohead smashups and calling it Jaydiohead, which is exactly what some New York City guy named Minty Fresh Beats just did. Jay-Z raps, Radiohead play, and you listen curiously for about a minute before groaning. Will somebody please stop the madness?
Who has patience for this type of thing in 2009? Even Girl Talk faltered when he put Jay's "Roc Boys" over "Paranoid Android" on Feed the Animals-- and that was just 30 seconds of Jaydio-ness. This is 38.1 mintues worth! The best thing to come out of the project are the titles, which often cross over into so-bad-they're-amazing territory. There's the possibly Wall-E-inspired "Dirt Off Your Android" and, our personal favorite, "Lucifer's Jigsaw", which sounds like a very difficult puzzle. Of course, this isn't the first time some dude (it's always a dude) downloaded Jay-Z a cappellas and put them over his favorite subversive rock band (lest we remind you of The Slack Album). And it won't be the last time. It should be the last time.

The Pitchfork 500 Paris Party Jumps Off This Friday!
From feedproxy.google.com at 05/01/09 08:30 PM. 0 comments.
People of France: Bonjour! That's French, right? Also, did you guys know that Pitchfork made a book? We did! We totally did. The book is in English, though. Sorry about that. We hope it's not too much of a problem. Anyway, now that we've already thrown book-release parties in New York and Chicago, it's your turn.
This Friday, January 9, Le Motel in Paris is throwing a party for The Pitchfork 500: Our Guide to the Greatest Songs from Punk to the Present. Le Motel is located at 8, passage Josset, 75011 Paris. If you're taking the Metro, it's Ledru-Rollin. And from 6 p.m. to 1:30 a.m., the DJs Bonne Ambiance and Maxence P will be playing selections from the book. I swear I'm not making those names up, either.
And if you haven't heard anything about the book yet, here's the deal: This handy paperback chronologically explores Pitchfork's 500 favorite songs from 1977-2006, constructing an alternate history of the past three decades of popular music-- one that extends beyond the typical Baby Boomer-approved canon of the Clash, Prince, Public Enemy, Nirvana, Radiohead, and Outkast.
From art-rock and proto-punk godfathers such as Brian Eno, Iggy Pop, and David Bowie to today's leading lights such as the Arcade Fire, the White Stripes, and Kanye West; from superstars to cult heroes; and from punk, indie, and pop to hip-hop, electronic music, and metal, we've created the ultimate playlist. Interspersed throughout are sidebars...

The Pitchfork Guide to Upcoming Releases: Winter 2009
From feedproxy.google.com at 01/01/09 12:00 PM. 0 comments.
Welcome once again to the Pitchfork Guide to Upcoming Releases, our seasonal guide to upcoming releases! Four times a year, we round up a big ol' list of albums, singles, EPs, and DVDs set to be unleashed over the coming months, hoping to get you pumped about going out and buying records. (You do still do that, right? RIGHT?) This installment covers early 2009.
Compiling such a list isn't easy in this day and age, with different release dates for digital and physical versions of albums, as well as different release dates for different countries. So we tried to stick with North American physical release dates as much as possible, with exceptions as noted. When an album's North American release date differs from its overseas one, we also made a note of that. Keep in mind that release dates are as slippery as an eel on rollerskates, and any one of these is subject to change at any moment.

John McDonnell: Help, I've been Tango'd
From www.guardian.co.uk at 29/12/08 01:32 PM. 0 comments.
OK, it takes a lot to admit this but three weekends ago I stayed in and watched Strictly Come Dancing. Alone. Without anyone holding me down in front of the TV and shoving matchsticks between my eyelids to force me to witness the sunburned, leather sofa-esque atrocity that is Bruce Forsyth's face. And that's not all. Suitably impressed by the music that was played as an actor from Holby City theatrically danced the Argentine tango, I went onto the internet to try and find out what the song was. After a fruitless 10 minutes I came to my senses and gave up.
Later that evening, I watched ridiculous spy caper True Lies on TV. In anticipation of the scene where Jamie Lee Curtis strips to reveal herself in all her androgynous glory, and also because there is something strangely addictive about watching Arnold Schwarzenegger act (in the same way that watching a cat lick its bum is weirdly compelling), I decided I would throw away another few hours of my life in front of the telly.
By peculiar coincidence, there was a tango scene within the first 10 minutes of the film in which Arnie prances about to the same song I had heard earlier in the night. With renewed interest I went searching again on YouTube and found that the tango song in question was a take on Carlos Gardel's Por Una Cabeza.
It was while on YouTube that I stumbled across an Argentine group...

Readers' Poll 2008: The results
From www.guardian.co.uk at 23/12/08 12:41 PM. 0 comments.
The results of this year's guardian.co.uk/music Readers' Poll are in, and the remarkable thing is last year's double winners Radiohead very nearly made it into the the top ten Bands of the Year list, despite not having released an album this year. That good eh, readers?
They have not clinched the top spot, however. That honour goes to another double winner. This year, Bon Iver takes the prize in both Album of the Year and Solo Artist of the Year (which was actually dominated by women). You voted him better than Fleet Foxes, Elbow and Vampire Weekend in the former category, and more worthy than Laura Marling, Santogold and, erm, Leona Lewis of the latter award. He told guardian.co.uk/music: "I am simply flattened by your response to the record. I don't know how to thank you ... appropriately. Thank you for making it your record."
Over in the Band of the Year category, there was one group who obliterated the competition in terms of votes. The Killers, whose album Day & Age was released in November, were so far in the lead we suspected foul play, but the freak who spammed us over 1,000 times under such names as Dickie Burn and, charmingly, Fred West, had nothing to do with it. The Killers' lead singer Brandon Flowers was especially touched on hearing the news, telling guardian.co.uk/music: "We are very blessed to have such great and computer-savvy fans. It's wonderful to be a band of the...

something for 2009
From www.sigur-ros.co.uk at 18/12/08 02:09 PM. 0 comments.
at the two shows in london last month (20th + 21st) some people noticed a lot of cameras busily recording away.
we can now confirm that the shows were indeed recorded and pass on a bit more information on this. the shoot was directed by acclaimed director vincent morisset, who also shot the “neon bible” interactive video for arcade fire. the footage is currently being edited in montreal and promises to be a nice contrast to “heima“, which had a lot of links to context, time and surroundings, whereas this forthcoming concert footage will be purely performance-based.
as is fairly common in sigur rós land, it will be released when it’s ready and, as such, we dont have any ideas of release dates - but we’re looking forward to it already.

Dave “Switch” Taylor: Producing M.I.A.
From apple.com at 18/12/08 08:17 AM. 1 comments.
The degree to which critics and fans were transported by British-Sri Lankan rapper Maya “M.I.A.” Arulpragasm’s last album, Kala, seems directly proportional to how far she and producer Dave “Switch” Taylor traveled to record and produce it.
India, Australia, Jamaica, and Trinidad were just some of the stops on an equatorial tour that allowed M.I.A. and Taylor to capture open-air, off-the-street vocals, instrumentals, and serendipitous “noise” into Taylor’s mic’d MacBook Pro.
While still on the road, then later in his home studio, Taylor produced most of the songs for Kala entirely in Logic Pro, running Logic’s host plug-ins and virtual instruments on the same well-traveled laptop. “Pretty much everything on Kala was done within Logic,” says Taylor.
And judging by critical reception, pretty much everything was done right. Kala — Rolling Stone magazines 2007 Album of the Year — doesn’t so much rock our world as re-mix our sonic expectations of it, brightly fusing the sounds of Western house and third-world music even as M.I.A.’s playful but pointed lyrics explore some of the darker possibilities of cultural fusion.
“Sometimes it felt strange being in places where we were hardly getting electricity,” says M.I.A. “But Dave is so advanced on Logic that we were getting results that would take certain musicians a lot of time, money, and organization to achieve. Other producers would come to our makeshift ‘studio’ and be like ‘How did you do that?’ and all the time we were just pushing for everything we could get out of Logic — and bending...

Peter Gabriel/Ezra Koenig photos by Ahmed Klink
"Hot Chip Cover Vampire Weekend With Peter Gabriel?", we asked in a news story back in September. The answer? Yep. Abeano today posted a stream of the song, which they say was once intended for a Vampire Weekend B-side but was shelved. All things considered, it's pretty much exactly what you'd hope for from such a wtf one-off. "This feels so unnatural, Peter Gabriel, too," is followed by "It feels so unnatural to sing your own name." And then somewhere in there he stars wailing like he wandered into "The Blood of Eden".

Ben Myers: What are the literary band names just begging to come into existence?
From www.guardian.co.uk at 17/12/08 10:22 AM. 0 comments.
As a freelance music journalist, I spend a chunk of every day listening to publicists doing their best to convince me â€' an idiot who secretly spends all day listening to bad finger-in-ear folk records â€' that their young charges are the next big thing.
And while there is something infinitely crushing about reading the words "Oasis/Kasabian-inspired four-piece from Coventry", it's always fun to marvel at their names. Recent new bands, for example, include Titus Andronicus, an indie band named after Shakespeare's earliest tragedy, and Empire of the Sun, an Australian electro duo named for the JG Ballard novel.
Literary band names are nothing new, of course. Rock music and literature have long enjoyed a symbiotic relationship, from Douglas Coupland's novel Girlfriend in a Coma â€' named after the 1987 Smiths song â€' to the many (oh, so many) bands who have lifted their names from books.
But is the literary band name a fast track to credibility, or a lazy and contrived way to make the band look smarter than they actually are? A bit of both, most likely.
It's all a matter of taste of course, but the literature of the counter-culture inspired some good bands, with the Fall (Albert Camus), the Doors (a reference to Aldous Huxley's The Doors of Perception) and the Velvet Underground (Michael Leigh) perhaps the most obvious.
Some texts, however, are cooler than any band ever could be, and naturally spawn band names that scream, "Look, we're dark and edgy too!" With...

Davy Graham: A video tribute
From www.guardian.co.uk at 16/12/08 02:38 PM. 0 comments.
Since the late 1950s Davy Graham, who died on Monday, has influenced generations of guitar players, from Pentangle's Bert Jansch and John Renbourn to Paul Simon, Nick Drake and Jimmy Page. More recently, you can hear echoes of his work in the music of Devendra Banhart, Pete Doherty and Fleet Foxes. With only a limited amount of footage of him in existence, here are five of his finer moments ...
In 1959, Ken Russell made a documentary entitled Hound Dogs and Bach Addicts: The Guitar Craze about the rising popularity of guitar playing in the UK. Some of the best footage featured a then unknown 19-year-old called Davy Graham showcasing unique tunings and a new picking style. We see him playing Cry Me a River in the clip above.
Five years later Graham made a cameo appearance in the 1963 movie The Servant starring James Fox and Dirk Bogard. The song is Rock Me Mama.
Here's a clip of Graham playing Rock Me Mama in a 1969 documentary about notorious Scottish beat writer and junkie Alexander Trocchi, which also featured William Burroughs.
Often emulated but never bettered, Graham's most famous song was Anji. It can be heard here â€' along with the Irish song She Moves Through the Fair and a brief interview â€' on the BBC's Folk Britannia series, in which Graham was afforded a long overdue critical appraisal.
Fifty years on and Davy Graham was still performing and continually...

LOLz: Classic Album Covers Get the LEGO Treatment
From feedproxy.google.com at 12/12/08 07:30 PM. 0 comments.
Image via Format Mag
Ah, the magic of LEGO. Once merely a children's toy, the little Danish bricks have gone on to inspire all manner of wonder and wackiness, from theme parks to that landmark White Stripes video to a sprawling recreation of the Holy Bible in lurid detail (no, seriously). Musically inclined types of the "You" epoch have done their part as well, creating video clips and-- like that one Japanese guy does with his food-- album covers.
The album covers thing has really taken off: it even has its own Flickr group, and a rundown of blah-to-hysterical offerings surfaced on the web earlier this year. What prompted us to address this phenomenon today, however, is Format Mag's recent list of "20 Classic Hip Hop Album Covers Recreated in LEGO" [via Prefix].
LEGO has made strides in adding personality to their iconic minifigs in recent years, something Format capitalizes on in their hilarious attempts to match "tough guy" plastic characters with the real life tough guys and characters who grace a lot of these covers. The results range from the silly...
...to the goofy...

From www.radiohead.com at 09/12/08 09:10 AM. 0 comments.
I woke up this morning to hear the Oliver Postgate has died, which makes me very sad.
His childrens Tv shows changed my life and my childrens so we wish him well wherever it is he is off to next.
He had a great website as well, was very politically minded.
Anyone who is involved in the upcoming climate negotations in Poland might, in memory of him and all his amazing work, want to read this essay from 2006
