[Music] Woodkid & Nils Frahm ~ Ellis — a closer listen
Today is America’s Independence Day, and Ellis arrives just in time: a calm yet firm reminder that the great nation still has a long way to go in order to achieve its goals. The short film (directed by France’s JR) and score (with narration by Robert DeNiro) remind viewers and listeners of the nation’s highest aspirations and deepest […]
[Music] Hanggai – Xiger Xiger
China and Mongolia are loaded with amazing music, but Hanggai, a band out of Beijing, but with members from Inner Mongolia and from the Han population, are becoming a fast favorite of mine.
[Music] Kieslowski – Normandie
Kieslowski, a wonderful indie rock band out of Prague in the Czech Republic, have a new single out. Our friends at Indies Scope have released another gem.
[Music] Collin Walcott – Prancing
Collin Walcott was an American multi-instrumentalist who played with the band Oregon, as well as releasing some incredibly interesting solo material before his death in 1984 from an automobile accident while touring in East Germany.
[Music] Muslimgauze – Arab An Dog Curfew Tel Aviv
It seems like Muslimgauze will live forever (or for a very long period of time) thanks to the endless amounts of music Bryn Jones left in his studio, which continue to creep out every now and then.
[Music] Purrkur Pillnikk – Flughoppið
In honor of Iceland actually defeating a team of substance, here’s a slab of Icelandic racket by Purrkur Pillnikk, one of the country’s first punk bands.
[Music] Akira Kosemura – Someday (feat. Devendra Banhart)
Akira Kosemura is a young pianist and composer who comes from Japan. He’s shown making some delicate music with American vocalist Devendra Barnhart.
I thank Miguel Douglas, who has brought to my attention many treasures over the past year.
[Music] Mizar – Svjat Dreams
Behind only Laibach and Bijelo Dugme (White Button), Mizar were the most powerful name in the Balkan rock music scene, and crossed over into Darkwave with ease. This is a cover of The Eurhythmics’ classic hit, “Sweet Dreams Are Made Of This,” done with a heavy dose of Byzantine goth.
[Music] The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band – Transparent Day
The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band were an American psychedelic rock band out of Los Angeles, California, who made some of the best music of the era in my opinion.
