Iori’s Eyes “Double Soul” Genere : post trip-hop Provenienza : Milano, Italia Se ti piace ascolta anche : Massive Attack, Tricky, Air, Radiohead Gruppo italiano, milanese per la precisione, che ho conosciuto grazie a Lucien e alla sua teiera volante . Una band che, più che dalla noiosa scena musicale nostrana, sembra uscita dritta da un mio sogno. Una voce maschile (quella di Clod) e una femminile (quella di Sofia) che si uniscono, si riproducono e partoriscono della ninna nanne per bambini alieni. A voler essere più specifici, ma non troppo perché la loro musica ha sempre impresso forte il sapore del mistero ...

As video games outsell CDs, artists such as the National and Paul McCartney are queueing up to compose for them I'm here to talk about video games. Not the Lana Del Rey song but actual video games; or, more specifically, the music that soundtracks them. There has long been artistic credibility in creating scores for games, and with revenues outstripping those of films it's a tempting prospect for musicians looking to make lucrative synch deals . In 2010 Joris de Man – not a big name in the charts perhaps, but one at the forefront of games music – became the ...

Here's some more proof that I know exactly jack shit... For whatever reason, I was under the impression that DJ Nature was a new guy, but I haven't been more wrong about anything since I decided to spend my life savings of Facebook stock. Ouch. But yeah, turns out that this is just another alias of DJ Milo, one of the O.G. members of The Wild Bunch , the legendary Bristol crew that spawned Massive Attack, Tricky, Soul II Soul and basically the beast known as Trip-Hop in general. So yeah, homie's got steez, so it should ...

“Up until the moment I put the needle into the outer groove of Flying Saucer Attack’s ‘Chorus’ I believed several things about recording. I believed that recordings were made in recording studios, and that recording studios were expensive, and manned by highly trained individuals with specialised knowledge of an obscure and faintly occult progress. Records were expensive to make but that was okay because recording artists sold loads of them, and anyway, record companies paid for all that stuff. Within the space of forty-five minutes I discovered that what I was listening to was made possible without any of ...

Britain is celebrating Music is Great week with a DVD of iconic live moments. But why has the campaign ignored the melting pot that makes British music special? Did you know this week is Music is Great week in Britain? You may think it's Music is Great week every week of the year, but this is part of the This is Great Britain campaign , celebrating everything that is British and, er, great. As part of the Music is Great campaign, backed by the major labels, a DVD of "iconic live moments" by British artists has been released with all ...

Tous les albums ne naissent pas égaux. 2 de Benjamin Paulin a d’emblée un gros avantage : réalisé par Frédéric Lo (Daniel Darc, Stephan Eicher, Alex Baupain,…), masterisé par Mike Marsh (Depeche Mode, Massive Attack, Oasis…), l’album bénéficie en plus de l’apparition exceptionnelle de Herbie Flowers, légendaire bassiste de Melody Nelson de Gainsbourg, de Walk On The Wild Side de Lou Reed et de Fink. Sur un C.V, ça en jette tout de suite.

Visit Indie Shuffle to download. Sounds like: Crystal Castles, Massive Attack Song: HEALTH - Tears [download here ] What's so good? Rockstar Games is gearing up to release the Max Payne 3 Soundtrack, which was scored by HEALTH. Based on this new track “Tears,” the band have worked hard to channel the raw grit of a Brazilian ghetto. I was a little surprised to hear that a gaming company had signed up the LA-based noise rockers for the task, but thinking about it further, I believe it shows that game developers really treat their work as an art. Why else would ...

Sinistre Klangpartien, abstrakte Songstrukturen und fette Gitarren — das ist die junge Band LUNGS aus Köln. Nach ihrem Debüt "Breathe and Shout" aus dem Jahr 2010, liefern sie jetzt mit "Sympathy" eine EP als Nachfolger. Die melancholische Atmosphäre des Erstwerks setzt sich auf dem fünf Songs starken Werk fort. Das beweisen auch die Texte, wie zum Beispiel in "The Suicide": "Did I tell you lately / About some of my bad dreams? / Did I tell you lately / This life ceased to mean that much to me?" Die neuen Stücke könnt ihr euch an dieser Stelle zu Gemüte führen: LUNGS - "Sympathy" Bandleader Philipp ...

Rahul Giri and Tanvi Rao. remember these names. from Bangalore, India, these two have been spent too much time listening to Massive Attack and Portishead. plus their recent mixtape for Wild City comprises some of my best: James Blake, Radiohead, King Creosote & Jon Hopkins… then came that tweet last week from Mr. Rahman himself; that’s how i found Sulk Station . so Rahul Giri & Tanvi Rao make this duo trip-hop duo called Sulk Station, bringing a sound that i’d never have expected to come out of India. bindiya in particularly steps out of the lot…for the vocals, for the minimalist use of ghoongroos, the progressive buildup, and its sheer capacity ...

At first glance it looks as though José González might be dwarfed by the stage at Shepherd’s Bush Empire. He’s one man with a guitar and the noisy crowd are packed in like the proverbial sardines. Luckily things calm down about four songs in, which is just as well since González, with his inspired combination of classical Spanish and folk guitar, is a quiet revelation. Unostentatious to the nth degree, the subtly catchy hooks of ‘Cycling Trivialities’ compliment a mellow, perfectly modulated vocal, and hush finally descends. By the cover of Massive Attack’s ‘Teardrop’ it’s clear ...

If you haven’t heard of Massive Attack or indeed listened to their debut album “Blue Lines” you are either from Mars, under 14 years old or are on the wrong website. This album is a stone cold classic which spawned a whole genre in trip hop coming out of the Bristol scene. Born form a [...]

This is a baptism of swirling ambience, surface frictions and blinding textural weaves from Bristol musician Liam ' Microdeform ' McConaghy … A true labour of love, where the melodic drugs are eased in and out on waves of mechanical abrasion, dishing out a rather special rhythmic sorcery in etched crackle and skip… Monachos starts out in heavy gravitations and Gregorian swells. Touches of ritualised radio emerge as a percussion pulse draws you down an ominous road eroded in the fidgety mind fires of skipping needle... Like a lucid snake dream, growing louder, falling off the horizon in a wide expansion of aged ...

Abominable Galaxy, the debut album from Melbourne duo Audego, comprised of producer Pasobionic and vocalist Carolyn Tariq, aka Big Fella, is a unique working of samples, slow breaks, and delicate vocals. The album presents an overall rather dark sound, resembling the downtempo trip-hop sounds of acts such as Portishead and Massive Attack. There are, however, [...] Audego – Abominable Galaxy (Independent/MGM) is a post from: Cyclic Defrost Magazine .
