Review: Bluebrain – "Listen to the Light: Central Park"

Nov 8, 2011, 1:11pm newdust
The Making of Listen to the Light by BLUEBRAIN
(Please watch the video above before reading) It was really quite something. To be able to walk around Central Park, and allow your experience to be soundtracked based on your location. Beautiful strings washed over you near the tall trees and luxurious apartment views by The Lake. You could hear boat [...]

Central Park (Listen to the Light) - A New Location Aware Album by BLUEBRAIN
"I remember finding this painting that a relative of mine did of the park. A relative I had never met. And I remember thinking, we're essentially doing the same thing. That's what he made. That is what he saw was beautiful and was inspired to create, pulling inspiration from the same place... I hope what [...]

Bluebrain Ponder Future Location-Aware App Albums After 'The National Mall'

Jul 7, 2011, 3:05pm Spinner.com
Bluebrain - The National Mall - Location Aware Album
Filed under: News , New Music , Exclusive bluebrainmusic.blogspot.com Listening to the D.C.-based duo Bluebrain , it should come as no surprise that the band is big on high-concept presentations for their art. The brothers behind the music, Ryan and Hays Holladay, combine their efforts to craft intricate pop woven with dense electronic backdrops, rippling drums and sharp contrasts of electric and acoustic guitar. It is a sound that practically demands a similarly lofty presentation to [...]

Bluebrain - "The Pull"

Jun 8, 2011, 5:28pm Everybody Taste
Bluebrain - "The Pull" Bluebrain are a Washington, DC-based duo that's done some incredibly inventive site-specific music in the past, including this beautiful mobile app-based album that's meant to be played while perusing the city's National Mall. This past Record Store Day, the duo teamed with DC label Sockets Records for another creative endeavor: a 7" that features an A, B, and C-side. What that means is you can play the A-side, "The Pull," the B-side, "The Push," and then play the two sides simultaneously to create the C-side. I don't know about you, but I want one [...]

Bluebrain Record Store Day Release: "THE PULL"

Apr 14, 2011, 10:22pm The Rotation
Bluebrain Record Store Day Release: "THE PULL" Let's face it: Washington is better known for its monuments and political snafus than its happening music scene. Obama must have put something in the water, though, because recently D.C.-based music duo Bluebrain has lent the District some clout as a hub of aural innovation. This month, Bluebrain has not only announced the upcoming release of a site-specific album , they have also collaborated with Sockets Records to create something the likes of which not even the hippest city has seen: a vinyl with a "C side."

Bluebrain to Tour The Smithsonian… Kinda.

May 20, 2010, 1:19pm All Our Noise // We Are Live
Bluebrain to Tour The Smithsonian… Kinda. At the beginning of the year we spoke with Ryan Holladay of Bluebrain about his favorite tracks from their Soft Power LP. We also noted the band's penchant for boombox events involving the DC community, like the recent "Boombox Walk" during the Cherry Blossom Festival. Now, the duo is back with another interesting, DC-related side project. We'll let Ryan explain that one: "Essentially we (Bluebrain) have created an audio companion to the Sant Ocean Hall in the Smithsonian's Natural History Museum. It's a twenty minute piece of music that we've written to be played [...]

Bluebrain + P. Thomas + Weird Tapes + MCDE Bluebrain - Soft Power This Bluebrain's song takes a second to kick in, it has such unique production, vocals remind me a bit of TV On The Radio and the music makes me feel like how I felt after hearing The Dirty Projectors for the first time which they don't sound the same at all but both album hit me off guard where the music wasn't something i'd usually listen to but composition wise it was very fresh feeling and I wanted know if they could pull that feeling [...]

My apologies for a couple of harsh transitions this week. I just had to put these three songs in the front because I think they are all really good and then I ended up with some things tacked on the end because I wasn't sure where to put them. That doesn't make them any less great. [...]

Drake's Take: New Releases 02.09.10

Feb 12, 2010, 6:35pm Bumpershine.com
Drake's Take: New Releases 02.09.10 This week Drake sees if Yeasayer can avoid the dreaded sophomore slump and if Hot Chip can "crack it wide open" on their fourth full length. - ed.

The release schedule kind of feels like that as well. To wit, we're (mostly) blessed this week with new releases from Hot Chip, Yeasayer and the influential Gil [...]
