I'm currently at sat in a hotel in Denmark reflecting on the last few days spent at SPOT Festival in Århus. I've seen so many amazing artists, some of whom I knew already but many I didn't. It all kicked on Thursday afternoon with a performance by Our Broken Garden, put together in collaboration with composer Gustaf Ljunggr. Staged in the city's cathedral, the Århus Domkirke, the performers - a choir, guitar, viola and cello, bass clarinet, and harp - were spread on raised stages amongst the audience along the aisle, with Brønsted at the front [...]
Quand le bar le plus sombre de la capitale sudiste s'invite dans un club parisien qui brille bien au delà des frontières hexagonales, on est en droit d'attendre quelques étincelles au moment où la glace et le feu se rencontrent. Et quoi de mieux qu'une sélection maison pour annoncer l'évènement de ce samedi? Bon Homme – [...]
I admire people like Toby who stick to genuine singles for their year end lists, but I can't do it. It's harder and harder to know what it means anyway. The Fresh & Onlys made a fancy video for "Waterfall" but didn't release it as 7" -- is it still a single? (It's not on list anyway, but another of theirs is.) I don't worry about it, clearly, as my #1 was an album cut. An AWESOME album cut. I do still feel singles are meant to be ephemeral. If I'm not listening to some of these tracks [...]

Moved to a new place once again and let me tell you, Bell Canada isn't an internet (or anything) provider you want to go with. Been without internet for more than a week, how ridiculous is that? So apologies for the lack of posts, please blame Bell and don't make the mistake I made. Quick post from me, I shouldn't even be posting music to you guys cause I don't have access to new music other than the worst source; radio. Anyways, suggested to me by my friend C who should be a writer on [...]

Grandísimo debut desde Copenague, aunque lo de debut debería decirse entre comillas, ya que se trata de Tomas Høffding, creador y bajista/vocalista del grupo Whomadewho, que durante los últimos 5 años se ha dedicado casi en exclusiva a su creación, y en los últimos años cuando tenía tiempo libre se ha ido montando su propio estudio y jugando con los instrumentos y la electrónica, como el reconoce, el proyecto dejo de ser un tema personal para para a ser un grupo, y para poder hacer cosas más personal estuvo un tiempo como Dj electro, hasta darse cuenta de que eso [...]

Maybe the position only exists in Denmark, but we could definitely use a "Music Video Commissioner" here in the USA!

A volte per capire bene quello che ti si para davanti ci vogliono circa tre minuti e almeno sette pagine web. The internet is where the art goes to die. O almeno così diceva un professore di Storia dell'Arte nell'ennesima serie tv americana sul mondo dei gggiovani. Non ha tutti i torti: prendi i famosi leaks ; sono lì a portata di mano, possono essere sul tuo disco duro in meno di tre minuti se vuoi, e di solito è lì che finiscono, [...]
