Love of Sound: PAUL MOTIAN, 1931-2011

Dec 5, 2011, 7:03pm Destination: OUT
Love of Sound: PAUL MOTIAN, 1931-2011 He was always there. Like a trip to Liberty Island, a ride on the Cyclone, or a visit to the Frick Collection, there are things a New Yorker believes he should definitely get around to checking out, at some point. There would always be time to see Paul Motian at the Village Vanguard. After all, he was always there. His seeming ubiquity made news of his death hit all the harder. He won't always be there? The fuck is that? Also: he was eighty? Many extremely fine tributes have been written [...]

Today's Hotness: Cookies, The Swimmers

Sep 13, 2011, 10:35pm :: clicky clicky music blog ::
Today's Hotness: Cookies, The Swimmers >> We find it hard to believe we haven't written about Brooklyn-based electropop duo Cookies for almost a year , especially because of its wonderful second single which was released late this past spring, but there you go. The duo of former Mobius Band guitarist Ben Sterling and singer Melissa Metrick has just dropped its genius third single, the apparently digital-only pairing of "Wilderness Tips" b/w "The Dream." The thumping A-side is deftly composed, an arresting mid-tempo hand-clapper that croons and thumps. The flip, "The Dream," is perhaps even more remarkable, as spare and soulful [...]

Buddy Miller + The Majestic Silver Strings

Feb 17, 2011, 2:38am Direct Current
Famed Nashville guitarist Buddy Miller has achieved near-legendary status as a gifted sideman and Grammy-nominated producer on projects like Robert Plant's recent Band of Joy. But beyond Miller's skillful fretwork and finely tuned studio ear is a deep appreciation and encyclopedic knowledge of classic American roots music: the dusty musical intersection of raw and honest country, shuffling blues riffs, colorblind soul and the power of rock and roll. His inspired and inspiring new album Buddy Miller + The Majestic Silver Strings (March 1, New West) is a welcome culmination of Miller's unequivocal genius. With a world-class [...]
