The Month's Goings-On In Dancehall and Reggae... NEWS The Star Bwoy is stepping up in style. Mavado will have a starring role in the film 'Shottas 2', the long-awaited sequel to the 2002 cult classic that starred Kymani Marley, Spragga Benz, Paul Campbell and Louie Rankin. Director Cess Silvera reached out to Mavado, who previously appeared in the cinematic video for Drake's hit single 'Find Your Loving'. This will be the first big-screen role for the Gully Gaad, who sounds confident as usual. "Fans can expect what they always get from me," Mavado said, "keeping it real." Respect ...

Here's something a bit special. At 11:58am every morning, a webcam takes a still picture of the Matterhorn. The same subject, the same framing, but different every time. For her 2009 album 11:58 , Swiss violinist Katryn Hasler took a single, sparse musical phrase and, taking inspiration from the day's photograph, played it in a different climate. 16 tracks of the same two melodic lines played over and over again, instantly recognisable but always subtly different. The photo archives only go back 2 years on the website, but from Sun Oct 28 11:58 we can tell ...

The launch of Record Store Day with a phenomenal set by Orbital in a tiny basement couldn’t have been more appropriate. The current vinyl appreciation re-revolution is only possible thanks to 90s dance acts and DJs keeping the 12” alive while the indie kids bough Sleeper CD’s. The juxtaposition between digital bleeps and analogue discs is wonderfully astounding. Orbital were also lasts week’s king of the streamers; their 6music Maida Vale, and RSD sets both beamed live through the internets. The ability to immediately stream the albums we want to hear is the great leap of modern ...

Noisy Canadian record label, No List Records has announced it will be releasing Montreal, Quebec's The Great Sabatini 4th release 'Matterhorn' which will be available on 12" vinyl and digitally on Tuesday, March 13th, 2012. The album was recorded at The Black Room on Montreal by Dustin Reid and mixed by Craig Boychuck(KEN mode, Kittens, Mares Of Thrace).

Montreal’s The Great Sabatini is without a doubt, one of the most interesting bands emerging from the Canadian underground. Theirs is a familiar yet distinctive sound that mixes the intoxicating eeriness of Neurosis and Today Is The Day with many other extreme and not-so extreme genres. With several North American tours and three previous releases under their belt, the band’s new recording, Matterhorn , is a six song journey that brings to the table different levels of moods without ever losing sight of the raw aggressiveness that characterizes them.

Montreal&aposs; The Great Sabatini has issued the following announcement about offering previous releases for free in celebration of the upcoming "Matterhorn" album: "In celebration of Matterhorn all our previous releases will be free for a limited time. Head on over to our Bandcamp. We posted a few sessions from the studio online. Check out the prev... Read More/Discuss on Metal Underground.com

Everyone’s gotta start somewhere. And when you're starting out, you’re cheaper and easier to control, right? The fiscally responsible trends continue in Hollywood: hiring cheap, inexpensive filmmakers to helm tentpole-like pictures. And/or you can look at it in the glass half-full way: studios taking a chance on young, up-and-coming talent. Oh, don’t be so naïve. Kidding… sort of. Let’s start with the fairy tale films that are still all the rage thanks to the $1 billion grossing “Alice In Wonderland” that made every agent in town dream of a “ca-ching!”-like opportunity. After flirting ...

My mind damn near exploded when I found discovered this gem during my junior year of high school. At the time, I was really into Phish and Primus, and...well, for someone who likes those bands, this album's something of a mindfuck. With Primus' Les Claypool on bass (slip slap slap-ing the shit out of those strings), The Police's Stewart Copland (who lays down some tight pockets), and Phish's Trey Anastasio (who, at what was undoubtably an oxy-ed out low point, hits a home run), this is the power trio to end all power trios. Each member ...
