Koji, Kurt Travis, and Bearcat just recently finished up a full US tour with Never Shout Never. The tours over, but we’ve put all three artists together for a great new PropertyOfZack Playlist feature. Check out the Playlists and listen to the songs on Spotify while reading everyone’s thoughts! (Click on image to listen in Spotify) IT’S SPRING TIME. SOUTHERN MUSIC IS WHAT’S GOOD. First thing you should know, my favorite singer is—without a doubt—Otis Redding. “Dock of the Bay” is one of the first songs I ever heard, ever learned. Secondly, B.B ...

Rumer's second album features covers of songs written by men in the 70s, including this Neil Young classic In a recent interview with Q magazine, Rumer, aka Sarah Joyce, was asked about the period following her platinum-selling debut album, Seasons of My Soul. The answers were probably not what most people would expect from the Radio 2 favourite. "Once, I turned my wardrobe into firewood. And there was an incident in a dressing room. The only thing left unsmashed was a bottle of vodka," she said. This was during the collapse of a long-term relationship and prior to her ...

The reissue of Sleep's Dopesmoker shows musicians with the nerve to really stretch a song and take listeners on a journey The three-minute pop song is an undeniable design classic: short enough to fit on one side of a 7in, long enough to turn a repeated chorus, melody or hook into an insanely addictive earworm. But greatness can also occur when an artist changes their game up from sprint to marathon, breaking past the 180-second barrier as far as their creativity will take them. I'm talking specifically about tunes that rely on their uncommon length for their effect ...

There are lots of foreign-language covers out there, but what really intruiges me is when non-Anglo/Americans approach the material from their own ethnic/cultural background.  Sometimes it's kinda clueless, like the South African group who sound like they really don't know their rockabilly (tho I'm sure they know rock better then most Americans know mbaqanga), while others are clearly going for a cross-over audience, e.g. the " chutney " version of Arrow's soca classic "Feelin' Hot Hot Hot": East Indians go to the West Indies. I'm pretty sure the Bappi Lahiri track was no more ...

RIP Donald “Duck” Dunn, the bass-player with Stax house band Booker T & The MGs. I had the pleasure of catching him in action with that legendary band at SXSW back in 2007 when they backed Isaac Hayes, William Bell and Eddie Floyd at Antone’s. Festival watch: change of name and dates for the festival [...]

crookedindifference : Radiolab: Is There an Edge to the Heavens? Edward Dolnick tells an escape story involving God, humanity, and a huge rewrite of cosmic laws. It began in 1665. A plague hit Cambridge University. All of the students were sent home. One of them is a twenty-something Isaac Newton, who spent his forced summer vacation solving “the problem of the moon” and explaining why that heavenly rock will never be free.  Sucks for the moon. But Newton’s mental leap ultimately lead to humanity leaving the confines of planet Earth. And as producer Lynn Levy explains, we’re about to ...

With the summer movie season underway after the opening of "The Avengers" last weekend, there's one movie that's taking a stealthier approach: "The Bourne Legacy," the fourth film in the blockbuster Robert Ludlum spy franchise, and the first without star Matt Damon in the lead role. Bringing in writer-director Tony Gilroy, who penned all three films to date before he went on to find his own success as a helmer with the Oscar-nominated "Michael Clayton," the film sees Jeremy Renner star as Aaron Cross, an operative from a CIA program more advanced than Operation Treadstone, with new cast ...

Pitts is best known for creating two of the signature guitar riffs of all time: The Isley Brothers’ “It’s Your Thing” and the wah-wah on Isaac Hayes’ “Theme From Shaft.” Getting tips from [...]
