It's sad that Michael Jackson passed away before he could make his comeback. However, his spirit and music remains to thrive and lives. On a brighter note, just to keep this blog running, here's a mix of songs that I've been liking a lot these past few days. 01 Regina Spektor - "Folding Chair" A song from Spektor's latest effort, Far , "Folding Chair" is a gem. It's a sunny tune great for summertime pop. The song is very [...]
It's not the voice of the Voice's daughter. True. But she did " celui-là spécialement pour vous, pour que, pendant les vacances, on soit encore ensemble." Thank you. Sheila - Bang Bang (Phillips, 1966) Obviously Mister Modo bakes tasty music. Mister Modo - Girl Scouts Cookie (LME, 2008) [...]

Avey Tare and Kria Brekkan - Sis Around the Sandmill (In Reverse) the image: Ryan Foerster
Après avoir été cette chanteuse à la voix d'enfant du groupe múm, Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttir, ou Kria Brekkan pour la scène, a décidé de voler de ses propres ailes, ou plutôt avec celles de son mari Avey Tare, leader d'Animal Collective. Leur premier album, Pullhair Rubeye , est sorti en début d'année sans faire de vagues et ne soulèvera certes pas des montagnes mais a le mérite d'être un très bel album de folk lo-fi intimiste ... a condition de remettre l'album dans le bon sens. Je m'explique : Tous les morceaux ont volontairement été enregistrés à l'envers, [...]
May marks the start of the summer for the University crowd, and with the new season comes new opportunities for work, belligerence, patio surfing, and most importantly, the outdoor festival. Ottawa welcomes back Bluesfest and the Capital Idea! Festival , among others, bringing to town massive acts like Bob Dylan, Kanye West, and The White Stripes, and lesser known but incredibly potent bands such as Sunset Rubdown, Girl Talk, Born Ruffians, and Rock Plaza Central. I'll have to miss the aforementioned fests due to a cross-Canada trek, but those staying in town or rolling through should not [...]

Much of the early coverage surrounding this album focused on whether or not they were actually going to release the album in reverse and how disappointed those were that had heard the songs prior to their reversal. Well as pressed copies arrive and, yes they all seem to be backwards, it's time to step back and judge the album for what it is. Though the fundamental idea isn't exactly revolutionary, the reversed album does make for a rather interesting psych-pop listen. The hypnotic sound of reversed percussion creates a constant that laps at the pieces like ocean waves. The vocals [...]
sis_around_the_sandmill.mp3 sis_around_the_sandmill_revers e.mp3 paw-tracks.com/artists.htm alright so there has been some controversy as of late about Avey Tare & Kria Brekkan's new album Pullhair Rubeye because apparently they are releasing the album IN REVERSE. i've been following the breaking news since it began and reaction has ranged from, 'what a cool experimental album' to 'is this some sort of joke?'. personally i was a bit confused by the whole thing, although Avey Tare somewhat cleared it up for me (and everyone else) on the [...]
