Canyons Keep Your Dreams [Modular; 2011] by Daniel Sargeant Rating: It’s become apparent that contemporary albums that fall into the wayward category of Interesting Dance have started to follow a template, opening with a slow build, adding lines and gussying those glittery atmospherics for about a minute, before dropping into some straightforward two-note bass line and trying to find a new way to count to four. After that, they range over their synths for 70 minutes while leaving no aural element digitally untreated, making sure to tackle any vocalists who wander into their studio thinking maybe it’s the ...

Jim DeRogatis and Greg Kot’s nationally-syndicated public radio show Sound Opinions recently had economist and New York Times columnist Paul Krugman on for an episode (starts ~6:26)... ( Sound Opinions , 11–25-11) From the Sound Opinions website : In the past Drs. Kot and DeRogatis have conducted couples counseling, held a musical intervention, and helped a listener with a music allergy. Today, they are challenged to assist their first-ever Nobel Prize winner. Jim and Greg are joined by Paul Krugman, an economist at Princeton University and regular columnist with the New York Times. Paul was invited on the show after ...

Anthony Ciccone , brother of Madonna, has significantly fewer homes than his sister. If there's a good thing to come out of the story, it's that it does give a celebrity angle for the otherwise pretty-much-ignored homelessness crisis to force its way into the newspapers: “My family turned their back on me, basically, when I was having a hard time,” he said. “You think I haven’t answered this kind of question a bazillion times — why my sister is a multibazillionarie, and I’m homeless on the street?” “Never say never,” he said. “This could happen to anybody.” “I ...

The Rolling Stones could be set to unveil a blue plaque for their 50th anniversary next year. The Rolling Stones' anniversary rumours rumble on. The legendary rockers have been inactive for almost five years, with Mick Jagger currently working with the 'super group' project SuperHeavy. With their 50th anniversary looming, The Rolling Stones have been linked with a world tour. The band recently met up in London, with the fan-led rumour mill immediately going into overdrive. Doing their best to dampen expectations, the band have admitted that a reformation is unlikely. However the seminal group could still be awarded a ...

Die Indie-Folker von Band Of Horses waren kürzlich in der Latenight-Show Conan zu Gast, wo sie ihren Song "Infinite Arms" präsentierten. Er stammt vom gleichnamigen Album, das vor etwa einem Jahr erschienen ist. Weil ihnen jener Hauch von fehlender Präzision, der durch das Live-Spielen leicht entsteht, so ungemein gut steht, handelt es sich bei dem Quintett um eine dieser Gruppen, die auf der Bühne fast noch besser klingen als auf Platte. Seht darum den bewegten Auftritt und beobachtet Ben Bridwells putzig verkniffenen Gesichtsausdruck während seiner Pfeif-Einlage: Band Of Horses - "Infinite Arms" Mit " Infinite Arms " veröffentlichten die fünf Amerikaner schon zum ...

We were incredibly excited to stream The Bigger Lights’s brand new record, Battle Hymn , last week, but we’ve also been anxiously waiting to post our new interview with the band as well. The process behind Battle Hymn  is one that the band wants all of their fans to know about, and we’re proud at PropertyOfZack to be able to share that with you. Topher, John, and I did a fantastic interview to discuss what the exact circumstances behind the creation of this album were and the possibilities for the band in the future. It’s absolutely worth ...

Seattle Weekly : “Listening to the radio, or to a DJ in a club, or to someone else’s iPod set on shuffle, it’s normal now to hear music jumbled together irrespective of genre or era: Zeppelin followed by Wilco, followed by Esquivel, followed by Rilo Kiley, followed by Ministry, followed by the Black Keys. Although the 50,000-song library and shuffle function are still new, they’re no longer novelties—this is how we listen to music now, a genreless jumble. Having access to everything all the time is fun, but slapping songs together out of context doesn’t ...

by Tom Johnson Every year I start out thinking that I have a feeling what album is going to ride high on my year end list, and more often than not I'm surprised by so many other things that the album in question may not even register. This year's victim is Corinne Bailey Rae 's The Sea , a beautiful, heartfelt album by any measure, one I was excited to hear after gradually falling in love with her 2006 self-titled album. So too appears to be the case with The Sea . It's not for a lack of great ...

Pixie Lott always wanted to be famous. The 19-year-old singer – who has entered the Guinness World Records for the highest chart jump in history with her single ‘Boys and Girls’ going from number 73 directly to number one in the UK –wanted to be just like her idols Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears when she was four years old. She said: “I’d see them starting their careers so young and I’d say ‘Why can’t I do that?’” Pixie was so determined to become a famous singer that after signing up to stage school she spent all her ...
