As part of The Orchard's Creative Licensing team, we're always on the hunt for interesting covers. This month, we've assembled a playlist of some of of our favorite discoveries from the past year, including Albert Hammond, Jr. of The Strokes taking on the Big Star power-pop classic "Thirteen;" The Dandy Warhols' ...

Im Kilbi-Countdown werfen wir ein Aug und Ohr auf die Acts neben den Headlinern. Heut mit echter Berliner Untergrund-Action. krautrock-guerilla / spaceship-muzak Mal schauen, ob die drei Berliner von Camera an der Kilbi dort erscheinen, wo sie sollten. Denn, musikalisch beeinflusst von ihren Vorbildern NEU!, Harmonia, Cluster und La Düsseldorf, taucht das Trio in Guerilla-Manier oft aus dem Nichts irgendwo im öffentlichen Raum auf und zündet ungenehmigte Spontankonzert-Feuerwerke in U-Bahnhöfen oder Unterführungen .

El sello francés de InFiné Music acaba de publicar el primer EP extraido del nuevo álbum ('Who's Gonna Get The Ball From Behind The Wall Of The Garden Today?') del músico y productor de origen libanés y residente en Francia de Bachar Mar-Khalifé , un maestro al piano y los teclados con esa mezcla de música tradicional con la elegancia de la electrónica y que hace 3 años ya publicará para el mismo sello el álbum de debut 'Oil Slick', para la ocasión cuenta con la brillante colaboración [...]

mit »système solaire« hat berlins krautiges impro-trio camera zum record store day eine limitierte ep veröffentlicht. darauf zu hören sind zwei neue tracks, die nahtlos an das 2012 veröffentlichte debütalbum anknüpfen, wobei das tempo tendenziell eher anzieht: der eine lebt von seinem spacigen und mitreißenden tanz-groove (»skylla«), der andere wirkt dank eines ausbruchs an noise-erruptionen gänzlich roh und gefährlich (»meteor«)...

CBC News spoke to the mayor's office who says Rob Ford now has a "slight headache ... after a very unfortunate situation over the lunch hour" in City Hall on Tuesday. For some reason I can't not think of Chris Farley's Columbian Coffee Crystals "SNL" sketch, but I digress. "Jimmy Kimmel Live" ran the mayor's clip in slo-mo on last night's show. It's worth a peep here (but not as good at the Farley sketch, sry). h/t Digital Spy and Toronto [...]

This is my second year going to NAB, a trade show each year in Las Vegas that includes cinema and broadcast manufacturers. Every component of moving image creation is changing quickly; lenses, camera sensors and editing / post applications, so I felt it was necessary to get out to Las Vegas and handle these things before I decide to throw down the price of a car and wait for a brown box to arrive. After hearing and seeing a lot about the Freefly MoVI in [...]

Watch the video below and you’ll probably never get it out of your head, at the very least the images will reappear têteside each time you hear this anthemic number from Cameras. And I’m guessing that could be quite often given that these Sydneysiders have created a dark classic in ‘Defeatist’ (from their 2011 debut ‘In Your Room’). There is a little Interpolling going on and with a Bowie sounding vocalist in tow this was never going to be less than a treat. Trust a band of this stock then to go and record an upside-down version of Kate Bush’s [...]
Often a bands name is a statement of how they see themselves, sometimes it's simply to grab the attention or to make a statement. Rarely a bands name is so synonymous with the music; a wonderful embodiment of what you hear ... Continue reading

Sony Project Update #2 So, okay, here’s a quick little sneak peek at how things are going with the Sony project that I was telling you about earlier . 50 photos that illustrate what I love about my fair 212, with absolutely no editing allowed. The project is called ‘The Unedited 212’ for a reason, duh. Anyway, I’ve been shooting for about a week now with the lil’ Sony NEX-5R camera and it’s incredibly fun — and small — and it’s so much easier to take with me everywhere [...]
Brothers Justin (guitar, vocals) and Joseph Scro (drums, piano, percussion) and Ryan Aylward (bass, synthesizer, production) make up Chicago trio Camera. Their latest LP, The Panic And The Permanence, was self-released yesterday. Download the album's first single, “Debris,” below. "Debris" (download):
Art rockers Camera revel in the controlled chaos of latest LP The Panic and the Permanence.

It's a short list of new releases this week, as all eyes and ears are on the SXSW festival, but there are a few key releases you'll want to pick up in stores today. First and foremost, the latest from David Bowie , whose first album in ten years is not only a surprise to all David Bowie listeners and fans alike but is destined to become one of his more memorable ones. In fact, our Music Director, Don Yates says that it "hearkens back to some his classic ‘70s and early ‘80s recordings, and while it’s doesn’t quite [...]

In honor of this week's discovery of a moon-sized planet smaller than mercury , here's a selection of work from 2012 of our own tiny sphere, featuring hills, craters, flats, fields, and broken flying machines. Shot with the Hasselblad 500 C/M on Kodak Portra. See more here . Permalink | Comment On This Post | Tweet This Post | Add to del.icio.us | Stumbleupon Post tags: [...]

The guys in Camera have been playing together for well over ten years, and in that time, they've honed their post-rock surge to a fine edge. Borrowing musical tics from bands ranging from Pere Ubu to Deerhunter, Camera lace their own indie rock subterfuge with enough unexpected twists and turns to keep them from being dragged down among the multitude of indie rock flotsam. The jagged guitars which wrap themselves snugly around singer Justin Scro's memorably catchy vocals seem to build and rise until they threaten to overwhelm everything around them. [...]
At the turn of the Tuileries garden, we crossed our lovesome Laure Pascal, graceful and beaming, parading around the chestnuts and palm trees and posing for her childhood friend, Clément Pascal. Half-Parisian, half-Tahitian, Laure Pascal and her outlandish charm, with her adorable freckles, rose lips and tie and dye hair, is a faultless Maison Kitsuné [...]
