Song of the Week #11: "Violent" by Stellar

Song of the Week #11: "Violent" by Stellar Haven't got too much to say about Stellar , although listening to anything off their fantastic debut Mix takes me right back to my Uni days. It was a result of one of those convoluted connections that I'd probably never take a chance on now. As a big Crowded House fan, I'd seek out any spurious link that might deliver something along similar lines. I chanced upon a single by Bic Runga that CH bassist Nick Seymour might have had something to do with. Quickly becoming enamoured with Bic's debut album Drive, I then moved onto... her [...]

Ash Wednesday

Ash Wednesday In honour of the day that's in it, here are some tunes by the band from Downpatrick in County Down. The three-piece from Northern Ireland have been together for nearly twenty years and I've been a fan of them since their first album, 1977. The band's punk-pop sound had been augmented for a while by the inclusion of Charlotte Hatherley on guitar, but has reverted to its original line-up in recent years. In 2007, the band announced that they would be only releasing singles for the forseeable future. This is not a bad idea for the group as their single [...]

Bic Runga - Try to Remember Everything (Rare and Unreleased) Review

I'm having a pretty hard time finding 'new' music to listen to these days. Most works fall into the mainstream category or just plainly don't make the cut to deserve a review. My friend has been trying to get me to listen to Bic Runga for a while now, I guess today is as good as any to succumb to her request. So, who is Bic Runga ? Bic Runga is a New Zealand singer-songwriter, best known for the track Sway on the American Pie soundtrack. [...]

Friday Mixtape Volume 304

Friday Mixtape Volume 304 Welcome to another edition of my Friday Mixtape. After weeks of late postings, screwed up links, and errors that cause posts to disappear (last week), I'm hoping that this week's mixtape goes up as scheduled, without any hitches. If, in fact, you're reading this on Friday- I've suceeded. While I've been relatively unimpressed with the mixtapes this year so far, I'm well pleased with this one. There 's the track from AG Silver that was sent this week, and I'm totally diggin' on. There's also an awesome new colab between Switchfoot frontman Jon Foreman and Nickel Creek guitarist [...]

Bic Runga Returns.

Bic Runga Returns. Bic Runga is probably the greatest musical export ever from New Zealand. Why her music never really caught on beyond her native country still perplexes me. 3 years after 'Birds', she finally returns with a new compilation. 'Try To Remember Everything' comprises b-sides, rarities, live cuts and previously unreleased materials. The album's actually quite good, in comparison with others of this ilk. One of the many highlights is 'A Day Like Today' , a b-side from my favorite Bic era 'Beautiful Collision'. It's a wonderful feel-good song with not a single note gone to waste. Bic's cute [...]

When all the elements conspire with shiny things that catch the eye.

When all the elements conspire with shiny things that catch the eye. If you haven't heard the good news from the land down under (and a little to the east), New Zealand's favorite son is playing Pied Piper of Pop again and reorganizing the supergroup that performed a few shows for lucky Kiwis (who obviously aren't spoiled enough, it seems) and produced arguably the greatest live record ever, 2001's 7 Worlds Collide. "You brought your guitar, right?" To my great delight, [...]

Great Closing Tracks: Playlist #1

Great Closing Tracks: Playlist #1 It could well be due to the kind of artists I mostly get into, but there does seem to be a trend in my record collection for closing tracks to be the emotional heart of the album. So how about an album's worth of closers for a reflective hour's listening, eh? We kick off with Envy of Angels, from the same-name album by The Mutton Birds , and a song which may well be the greatest 6 minutes in songwriter Don McGlashan's back catalogue. If the descriptions of the New Zealand countryside in this song don't make [...]

Vive La France!

As today is Bastille Day, I thought that I would put together a compilation of songs in French (by artists of several nationalities). This task proved more arduous than I initially anticipated, as I simply did not realise quite how many French songs I had in my music library! Therefore, the difficulty came not in finding suitable tracks, but in whittling down their sheer volume! I decided to enforce a 'female singers only' rule (oh, how I love those French ladies!), in order to cut the numbers... Please visit Ceci N'est Pas un Blog for the full [...]

Bic Runga: Live

Bic Runga: Live Bic Runga, the New Zealand singer/songwriter, is a powerhouse. Not only does she have a gifted knack for crafting timeless, infectious,tuneful melodies that I, but she also sounds unbelievably amazing live. No matter whether she's backed up by an orchestra, simply strums on her acoustic guitar, or do her finger-dancing on a piano, she always successfully reinterpretes her songs for the audience. Yeah, I'm a big fan. For those who haven't heard of her, I strongly recommend you to get to know her through these live tracks first, just to get an idea of how great her music really is. [...]

Zeon's Mixtape Vol. 2: AUTUMNALLY

Zeon's Mixtape Vol. 2: AUTUMNALLY After a full day of tiresome uploading and artwork making, the seoond installment of the Zeon's Mixtape finally surfaced. Here is a collection of 12 outstanding tracks, old and new, handpicked by me for an essential fall listen. While most of the songs really don't have anything to do with the fall theme, their vibes and sounds just remind me of this time of the year, when dead maple leaves scatter on the ground and when I often myself wandering to nowhere with blurry thoughts in my head. My purpose is just to present the tracks I love, not to [...]
