Live Review: Graveyard Train + Bearded Gypsy ..I first saw Graveyard Train on Spicks and Specks , performing cover songs in their own unique style. I was enthralled then by their swampy, gritty country sound. With their double bass, harmonica, carnivalesque banjo, steal guitar, a coffin-shaped washboard and a hammer and chain, they are one of the most exciting bands to come out of Melbourne in recent times. You have to admire a band who chooses to keep time with a hammer and chain, rather than the typical tambourine. After an international tour, the band return to Adelaide only a few short months after visiting as part of ...The AU Review13 May 2012

A guide to Pauline Oliveros's musicIn the second of our new series, Tom Service writes about Pauline Oliveros, whose sonic explorations take on life, the universe and everything Nearly sixty years ago, Pauline Oliveros found her mantra. "Listen to everything all the time and remind yourself when you are not listening". This simple but transformative thought has filled her life in music. Oliveros (born in 1932), then in her early 20s and living in San Francisco, turned a tape recorder on, and, listening back to the sounds she had preserved, heard things that she had not realised were happening in real time – and a philosophy ...Guardian music8 May 2012

WHEN IT COMES TO MEDICINAL WEED, RUSKO IS A ..Author: James Waldron Category: News Summary: The dubstep producer shows his support for medical marijuana Rusko has been at the vanguard of dubstep’s assault on the US music scene in recent months, so perhaps it’s not surprising he’s playing Levitate, Colorado’s annual marijuana celebration. In an interview with Denver's Westword newspaper, the producer was asked for his thoughts on medicinal weed and whether he would qualify as a patient. Rusko replied, “I, of course, support medical marijuana, and I am clearly a patient.” Gallery Options Face book Logo on Gallery On: "" Enter the Competition: "" Vote ...Mixmag17 April 2012

Exclusive Music Video Premiere: The Good Shi ..It’s been nearly two years since The Good Ship stormed the beaches with their excellent debut album Avast! Wretched Sea . Now they are nearing completion of their second full- length, due for release mid 2012. To get the ball rolling they’re launching the first single "Seven Seas" with an East Coast tour throughout April. “Seven Seas” is sung from the perspective of a sea dog locked in a prison cell for murder, not regretting his actions but only lamenting the fact that he cannot reach his beloved ocean. The song is typical of the band’s musical approach ...The AU Review5 April 2012

Feature: Jacked Doritos, Live Action YouTube ..by Jonathan Dean • March 2012 Several times during my first trip to Austin, I was reminded in serious tones that South By Southwest is not a music festival. It is not Coachella or Bonnaroo or All Tomorrow’s Parties, and shouldn’t be compared to those other popular music meccas. No, SXSW is special. It’s an industry conference. The main event is a series of panels, symposia, and keynotes by industry leaders, who assess the state of the music industry and share ideas for the future. The sideshow is a series of showcases where labels and talent agencies (and ...Tiny Mix Tapes30 March 2012

Music Review: Charles Gayle Trio - Streets ..Charles Gayle Trio Streets [Northern Spy; 2012] by Clifford Allen Rating: In 1988, with the history of African-American free jazz and spiritualism seemingly written decades prior, tenor saxophonist Charles Gayle came onto the recording scene. In his late forties at the time, he’d been playing in subways and on the streets in New York since the 1970s and making rare concert appearances. Gayle came up in Buffalo; bassist Buell Neidlinger recalled to this writer in 2003 that, on a 1968 gig with fellow saxophonist Andrew White, Gayle was an especially strong and somewhat mysterious force. He recorded a date ...Tiny Mix Tapes23 March 2012

REVIEW: Sharks – No GodsArtist: Sharks Album: No Gods Genre: Punk rock Label: Rise Records, Velvet Scene Sharks seem possessed of a profoundly disaffected outlook which belies their position at the vanguard of contemporary British punk rock. No Gods is their first full-length, after a wave of well-received EPs and singles which have allowed them to build up a steady following. The faithful ought to be pleased with this record, a relatively straightforward but endlessly enjoyable album that comes laden with refreshingly upbeat, enthusiastic anthems. The band do seem to have a fairly reliable approach to their songs, as the basic structure remains more …Under The Gun Review15 March 2012
