Gabriel Bruce – “Dark Lights Shine Loud EP” ..We last spoke about Gabriel Bruce after the release of “Sleep Paralysis“, which grabbed poor Constant Gardner‘s attention so forcefully that he couldn’t help but listen to it on repeat. Gabriel has learnt a few new tricks since then, upgrading his low-key gloom with the added shine and diversity of a higher level of production, [...]Pigeons and Planes23 May 2012

Citizens! - Here We AreIt's a rare beast that brings extra talent to the mixing desk when swapping fretboards and keys for twiddling knobs, and one wonders exactly what the attraction is. A cynic might suggest that trading on your name and signing up for production duties is the one sure-fire way to guarantee a hefty pay check regardless of whether the album flies or dies. Lord knows musicians have to do something to earn a living these days, but we should remember that those most successful in crossing the frontier, such as Butch Vig or Jack White, hardly wanted for cash. Or ...The 40523 May 2012

Music Review: Joey Ramone - ...Ya Know?Joey Ramone …Ya Know? [BMG Chrysalis; 2012] by Alex R Wilson Rating: Joey Ramone represents something to me that I know is far removed from what was probably the reality of the person: a cult member of a cult-like band that fostered the idea that you didn’t need to know how to play your instruments (in the traditional virtuosic sense) to form an amazing band. I remember the first Ramones song I both heard and learned to play on guitar: “Now I Wanna Sniff Some Glue.” As a young’un who had held a guitar for about a month ...Tiny Mix Tapes23 May 2012

This Is No Wind-UpThe Wind Up Birds From: Leeds, United Kingdom The Wind-Up Birds are from Leeds. They are named after a book by Haruki Murakami. They use good Yorkshire words like owt and nowt. They write songs about independent record shops, the reality of life, the monotony of work, and escape. They sound like the Fall stalking Art Brut in The Wedding Present's library. It's somehow fitting that, in the month that the Centre For Creative Arts launched their impressive project to release John Peel's record collection on-line, a gang of indie throwbacks, for whom Peel band would be ...The Devil Has The Best Tuna23 May 2012

Amon Tobin - Amon Tobin BoxsetAn imposing boxset for an imposing producer, we were still struggling to get through the hidden trapdoors and secret stashes of the Ninja twentieth anniversary bundle when this tome of terror landed on the doorstep with a convincing, never-settle-for-less thud. In many ways Amon Tobin IS Ninja Tune - unpredictable, unrelenting, inventive, ever evolving (see his film and computer game credits), and with a visual sound that has taken the idea of attacking the senses that step further by rewiring eyes and ears since 1997. It’s always more fun to discover the outer extras at your leisure, and you’ll ...Clash Music22 May 2012

Live: Watch The Throne. Jay-Z & Kanye West, ..Let's set the sceptre rolling with a pithy adherence to the cult of celebrity. Who would you deem more famed: Jay-Z or Kanye West ? About which would you rather read stories of fabricated salaciousness? Would you sooner christen your offspring Shawn or Kanye? Would you care? Indeed does anyone care? To quote Mr. West, "Do anybody make real shit anymore?" Watch The Throne was arguably, to clumsily paraphrase, really quite shit in places. Fanciful inquisitions aside however, if this uniting to tour the record aforesaid ought to celebrate the coming together of two contemporary hip hop titans, this one ...Dots & Dashes22 May 2012

Music Review: Big Blood - Old Time Primitive ..Big Blood Old Time Primitives [Dontrustheruin; 2012] by Ben Rag Rating: The first thing that people tend to mention about Big Blood is their prolificacy. This is the duo that released five excellent albums in 2007 alone while also participating in part of the larger groups Cerberus Shoal and Fire on Fire. But what’s more impressive than their frequency of output is just how consistently high-quality that output is (and that they’re so willing to share it online for free ). Caleb Mulkerin and Colleen Kinsella, who as Big Blood refer to themselves as a “phantom four piece,” use ...Tiny Mix Tapes21 May 2012

The Soft Moon vs. John Foxx & the Maths: "Ev ..Haven't heard much from San Fransisco industrial gloom merchants the Soft Moon since last year's quite excellent Total Decay EP-- until now, that is. The band just took to their relatively newly-minted Twitter to post this collaboration with ex-Ultravox singer John Foxx and his band the Maths, "Evidence". It'll see release soon via Captured Tracks as a one-sided 7".Pitchfork17 May 2012

Jazz breaking news: Gwilym Simcock, Tim Garl ..Beaming out of a soggy Camden the newly reactivated Lighthouse trio, now re-invigorated as a co-operative trio that has shed a little of its ‘chamber’ trappings, performed songs from new album Lighthouse at the Forge in London last night. While Gwilym Simcock did most of the talking between songs referencing among other links to tunes the Italian wine Barolo, a favourite apparently of Malcom Creese’s, his erstwhile colleague in Acoustic Triangle, and inspiration of album tune ‘King Barolo’, it was the bass clarinet of Tim Garland that set the predominant feel of the first set.

Coral Caves - Sometimes Shine (2012)Hailing from Leeds in the United Kingdom, Coral Caves, led by guitarist and singer, Christos Pappas, released their second EP called "Sometimes Shine" recently, which is a dark, melancholia filled record that takes the listener on a brief rollercoaster trip with songs as potential open letters to an ex- girlfriend or wife after a devastating breakup. At times, you hear a sadder version of psychedelic 60's Jim Morrison, 70's "Dark Side of the Moon" Pink Floyd and Dire Straits with a little 90's Stone Temple Pilots thrown in. Singing softly yet dramatically with a slight accent, you ...Music Emissions15 May 2012
