There
is nothing I like better than those reports in which the show's
producers fucks two artists from different disciplines and unite them
for a certain period of time. Tracking
conversations in such meetings are often the most interesting, getting
different views range from the art world to analyze their role in the
media circus (and public). I
still remember the love he professed for "Iconoclasts," a Sundance
Channel show that aired for five long years (2005 - 2010) and was
attended meetings of artists including Ron Howard and Steve Nash, Venus
Williams and Wyclef Jean or Today our protagonists: Fiona Apple and Quentin Tarantino.
I'm a big fan of chapter starring the creator of "The Idler Wheel ..." and director of "Pulp Fiction". Both
were known for some time (in fact girlfriend Fiona was Paul Thomas
Anderson, one of the best friends of Quentin) and that led them to
maintain a very good friendship over a period of their lives. After
several years without seeing, Tarantino and Fiona return to match the
occasion of the program, causing all sorts of getting the most endearing
moments.
More
than anecdotes, or mere nonsense, as discussed in the video, I'm
definitely with deep converse between them on the status of artists, the
reason for the alleged consequences (second albums, second movies ) and contamination in the music and film industry. It
is with stories so one discovers true fanaticism that the director of
"Reservoir Dogs" feels for his films (at least for the first), and the
emotional impulse that led always to Fiona Apple to show their feelings
in front of a piano .
I may not like the singing style of Fiona Apple, or the frantic way of directing by Quentin Tarantino. Even so I highly recommend you to try to see the report, and if you are interested in the art world. Because
more than the work of sound XX or YY, "Iconoclasts" is about how to
generate works, and how to understand them from the point of view of who
produced them.
His story is crazy. The
Vaccines founded the band in 2010, suddenly they signed to Columbia
Records, released a debut album - "What Did You Expect From The ...?" -
And only years after the end of 2011 had already eaten half the size
singles world 'Post Break Up Sex', 'Norgaard' and 'Blow It Up'. So
effective is the formula sound of London that after taking their first
LP went straight for a second: an album called "Come of Age" which will
be released tomorrow in Europe and the UK.
Unlike
what is seen in their debut album, Young Justin's band this time wanted
a record that accurately reflect the strength of their live energy. To
get the frantic foursome locked himself in the studio with Ethan Johns
(Ryan Adams, Laura Marling), producer Justin & Co. pushed to record
all issues in the old way. You know: button "rec" tight and everyone playing and singing like crazy. The
result of this imperfect but convulsive fabled experiment works in a
"Come of Age" which together apparently improves on its predecessor.
And the surprise is that I've been with "Come of Age" has been capitalized. There is an aura sound, sixties soul and post-punkera appearance that all issues surrounding the compact. That
with "What Did You Expect From ...?" Did not happen, the issues were
excellent (undeniable!) But more than an LP like a disparate collection
of singles. A clear example of this new situation? The
established between 'I Always Knew' and 'All In Vein', both pieces
appear to be carved on a pattern that leads directly to the heart more
purely rock roller of yesteryear.
After several listeners feel that there are two songs that are above the rest. The
first is 'Aftershave Ocean', a sinuous piece four minutes in which
Freddie Cowan's guitar takes on a crucial and refreshing role. Then there's 'Bad Mood', probably more furiously cutting rocker Londoners have managed so far. Such
is the emphasis of this savage cut the concert audience of Vaccines
have already begun to "moshpits" to listen to the first verse of this
song frantic.
Did you like "What Did You Expect From ...?"? Yeah? So please listen to "Come of Age". Perhaps
individual parts are not as huge as the first LP but a collective level
encourages dance album and brings a new sound wave as refreshing. That, at this point in 2012, it is an outrage. A surf!
Toundra yesterday published its third and highly anticipated studio album entitled "(III)". The
expectation created with this LP has been complete and they, who have
always known feet touch ground at all times, have managed to carve
another big bombshell that will delight those who enjoy the beautiful
with the apocalypse that characterizes his delusional instrumental sound.
Looking
ahead to this time we wanted to know absolutely everything about the
recording process of 'Lilim', 'Mars', 'Spiritist' and other songs
"(III)" so we got in touch with the band from Madrid to see if
we could make a 1 x 1 album cuts, something they very kindly agreed
adding a clear and concise message: this time Toundra have wanted to
deviate from the main path of post rock. What
was important at this point? "Victor explains to us:" We have tried to
offer something different to our previous album, something more raw,
straight, dark, aggressive yet elegant, more complex, and it sounds
better compound more our live. It is clear that there are many things and very ambitious, but to this day, is the best record we could do. ". Moreover
Esteban tells us that DNA is well expressed in Toundra "(III)",
"believe that the disc very well defined Toundra because what you hear
is what we are: a battery that protrudes completely from the rest, two
guitars faced with completely opposite styles and low that brings together all the instruments and (Alberto) always has the last word. "
Without further ado here are the boys' own analysis of Toundra. Enjoy it!
01. - Ara Coeli:Esteban: Since Victor taught guitar opens the track with the synth knew that this topic would be the track 1 disc. Victor is also the progressive riff that, in our opinion, is the best parts of (III). It's
a song that defines our sound right now is pretty parts, crescendo,
sugarcane parties, progressive ... but otherwise I do not think an
earlier in structure and instrumentation. So I like both. Will fill in an atmosphere of harmony and order and then give a blow to the head. Also
involved Hellacopters inspired and was the first riff I did when we
knew we had to get to work on this album every man for himself. But the good thing about this group is that the different influences that we are safeguarded in all four playing. The name is a tribute to my aunt (and my family), Araceli, cornerstone Girón family, rest in peace.
02. - Black Sky:Victor: It was the second issue that we started writing (around April-May, 2011). Over
the last year has had multiple versions and I remember that everything
came from a riff that brought Stephen and began directly without the
intro. Possibly the subject disk might best be embedded within (II) is more palatable and less complicated structure. The start trying to sound different, rock group of the 70 and then the second part enlazase is more relaxed. By July we get stuck halfway through and had to compose theme Ara Coeli. Sergio (Aloud Music) defines something like "a song that slams you and at the end leaves you totally cleansed." As a curious note that this was the first song I had more than one word as title Toundra entire discography.
03. - Requiem:Esteban:
A weekday lunch with Victor was and I said I wanted a theme that
oxygenate the disc, something different, as there was in the previous
two. I
knew what he meant: a theme that will give variety to "(III)", which
come out fully the style of practice and influences drank away in time. That night I could not sleep and di guitar playing with the idea of this topic. Then Victor wrote at local guitar melody, and I noticed shortly after with the chord progression. I recorded it to share it with the rest by mail. Then the local Victor composed the guitar riff, which gives an air of melancholy to the topic. From
there the issue grows and grows into one of the most epic we've ever
done, thanks largely to the string arrangements by Yoren, a childhood
friend of Alberto. It also has a guitar solo from our (admired) The Scrip friend Hardtops, for us one of the people who best represents the rock.
04. - Mars:Victor: It was the first song I started writing and just last. It grew out of an improvisation on several ideas that had brought Esteban. There were things that we were not convinced and leave "pending" until about February 2012. Alberto insisted recycle the original principle of the song, which was too broken and wanted to experience something more wild. Alex has used this type of rhythms with other groups, although he had never applied to Toundra, the end result is superb. The song was a coming and going to parties, had up to a war vs Victor alone. Esteban,
but luckily recovered sanity and decided to top it with a hand full of
timbales dense, much more consistent with the rest of the theme. The icing was recorded trumpet line Manolo, that replicates the guitar melody. This is a very dynamic and fun to play live. I think little by little we are more interested in playing things faster.
05. - Lilim:Esteban: The riff that starts the song we had done it a long time and we left parked. We had several jokes about it because it reminded us of a particular style of music you hate. Thanks
to Alex battery change and the work they did on the Westline Studios
with the help of Juan Blas in preproduction not just take it out later,
but we took it a step further ... the beginning of this song envelops
you, it is difficult to explain in words. My
guitar is a mantra that nothing enters the dense atmosphere of bass and
drums and guitar riff Victor with exotic snakes on the set. I
particularly like because it has a line of guitar playing that goes
along with the song but small changes within the same (if arpeggiated,
if as a riff, that if in crescendo ...). This is something that before we dared and we see that it worked. There's a part at the end which is a tribute to Nirvana, capital group in our influences.
06. - Spiritist:Victor: I think it was the third song we wrote. In (III) have worked enough ideas at home and then we took her to the local. Victor wrote home composed the start of the topic and the next day we taught. Anyone
know which group is quite difficult to have a beginning, an end and
nothing in between ... I wanted it to be an issue epic feeling to give
final disc, but neither lost immediacy, energy, nor was longer than the others. It
is another issue that has changed over time, actually got to release a
version Ferrara Anniversary concert that today would be unrecognizable
to us except for those beginning and end ... It has a very interesting
middle and dark, a crescendo of piano with Egyptian air that we love. (Steve: Although I wanted to erase bastards).
Victor:
We were very clear from the beginning that we wanted to voice at the
end and we gradually fitting all the extra instruments and arrangements
have item. A disk end of cutting less than the (I) or (II), much more intention. From guitars fading exhausted.
Overcoming this calorazo strikes us is an almost impossible mission, and thinking that we're back to our hellish jobs. Luckily we'll always have the good soul music genre which today still get interesting figures have emerged under his arms. One
of the latest figures to appear in the sky as concrete is Lianne La
Havas, a young girl who grew up in the neighborhood of Tooting (London)
and is attracting attention from all over Europe thanks to the explosion
of color that is apparent from listening to 'Your Love Is Big Enough', his latest single and fabulous.
But
I do not want to mislead you bear: their debut album, entitled as the
simple and internationally premiered on 9 July, is a gem exquisitely
produced by Matt Hales of Aqualung, in which the voice and the guitar
grapnels Lianne shine brightly. Strange
is that the girl is so young: only 23 years old, and an EP and an LP on
their backs, the soloist of Greek descent and has surprised everyone
Jamaican tables showing improper for a girl who has two first days in this world.
No wonder at all that the occasional piece of album 'Forget' has a stop very close to the R & B 90. Reading his biography we proved that Mary J. Blige has been one of its most direct references early. That makes your sound more dynamic sections and pompous, so tremendously expansive sound.United States and many parts of Europe await you on the tour that Lianne keep busy until December this year. With
so much movement we do not doubt that his formula will end up exploding
in much of the world: Warner Bros has been successful with his signing
and all the stars seem to have aligned for this beautiful and friendly
girl South London gets late or early the top.
His music can be purchased through their official website. In Spotify, at least for now, you can only hear a total of 8 old subjects (EP + tracks released a brief EP / single "Forget").
Evan Caminitis new album "Dreamless Sleep" is a sonification of the Hindu Sushupti concept-a state between wakefulness and dream, in which the consciousness of desire, evil and fear free. Reverberated guitars and swirling synths produce continually flowing sound mist as they move between light and dark, the atmosphere of creeping Lamentations and devotional hymns verbindent.
Only a few months after the hevorragenden "Night Dust" "Dreamless Sleep" appears on Aug 21, 2012 as Thrill311 at Thrill Jocky.
Who would have expected .. In a direct comparison of the two solo albums siblings Julia Stone is subject to much her brother Angus.
Because of "Broken brights" Angus Stone has succeeded in creating a truly original album, which is clearly from the previous Angus & Julia Stone albums apart.
Much darling gentlemen! Last night we learned that Japandroids will come in mid-October to Spain to present at the spectacular country album - "Celebration Rock" - that is putting the Canadians as one of the best bands of this 2012.

Tickets for both events will go on sale soon.
To whet your appetite ahead of the looming madness (no small) Vancouver duo has risen to the network's new music video for her latest single, 'The House That Built Heaven'. In this production, which was directed by Jim Larson (and produced by people of Pitchfork indie oracle), we live close the gap that can live on a tour of Japandroids.
