No one buys albums anymore, goes the music industry truism. And yet, for all that the format's commercial viability may or may not be on the wane, sitting and listening to a great album from start to finish is one of the greatest pleasures that music can bring. Flavorwire recently got to thinking about how one might build a record collection if you really only did buy one record a year. So here's the result of our thought exercise: 50 albums you really should own, one a year from 1963 until the present day. Yes, of course this mean things [...]
Le prochain film de Sofia Coppola , The Bling Ring , fait déjà beaucoup parlé de lui. Outre sa présentation en ouverture du Festival de Cannes qui se déroule ces jours-ci, le film marque également par sa bande originale qui frappera nos disquaires quelques jours avant la sortie officielle du film dans les salles obscures le 12 Juin. On retrouve sur cette compilation un excellent panel d'artistes qui ont marqué nos derniers mois d'actu à l'image de M.I.A. , Kanye West , Sleigh Bells , Azealia Banks , Phoenix , [...]
Poster de 'The Bling Ring'. The Bling Ring , el nuevo filme de Sofia Coppola tiene un gran soundtrack que sigue la línea de las anteriores entregas de la directora y se perfila para ser uno de los mejores del año. Una vez más, la supervisión musical corrió a cargo de Brian Reitzell (responsable por The Virgin Suicides , Marie Antoinette y Lost in Translation ). Para esta nueva entrega, Reitzell reunió a Kanye West , Frank Ocean , Azealia Banks , Phoenix , [...]
Surprise, surprise: director Sofia Coppola ( Lost in Translation , The Virgin Suicides ) has put together another hip-as-hell soundtrack for tweens, teens, and shattered twentysomethings. This time around, she's snagged the likes of Kanye West , Frank Ocean , deadmau5 , M.I.A. , Sleigh Bells , Azealia Banks, Can (!), and her hubby's band, Phoenix , whose tunes will sugarcoat her latest picture, The Bling Ring . What's more, she's recruited Oneohtrix Point Never's Daniel Lopatin to score the film. For this project, Lopatin's again working [...]

You may have heard that The National, bless them, will be at P.S. 1 in New York this weekend, performing the same song — "Sorrow," from their album High Violet — for six hours straight, as part of a collaboration with artist Ragnar Kjartansson. According to the gallery, the show "continues [Kjartansson's] explorations into the potential of repetitive performance to produce sculptural presence within sound." That's all very well, but where does this fit into the hierarchy of insanely long shows? Read on to find out. [...]
Laura Stevenson and The Cans find a hard won path to grace with their breakthrough LP.
It's been a long weekend. I'm gonna go watch Game of Thrones and then hit the sack. In case you were wondering, I only got a couple of the RSD exclusives I was hoping to find, including the Chelsea Wolfe 73 (apparently no one in Silverlake likes her, as we still have 2 of the [...]
This Record Store Day thing really grates eh? Who's at fault? The record companies, who see the event as a way to fleece the record buyers out of every last penny they have and set sky-high dealer prices, thus forcing retailers to charge daft prices for (mainly) old records? Or the record buyers themselves, who see the event as a way to fleece less-fortunate record buyers who have neither the means required nor the availability of a local record shop to go to in order to buy what they want and are forced to take to the internet [...]
It's that time of the year again, everybody! The best holiday of the year (yes, better than National Ferris Wheel Day AND Leif Erikson Day) has returned . I've been going to Record Store Day since 2009, and even when I didn't look up the releases beforehand, I'd still walk out of my favorite record store (RIP Cutlers in New Haven) with something unique and special. Unique and special is what Record Store Day does incredibly well, and it's why we love it so much. Since its relatively humble beginnings in 2008, the event has grown in popularity every [...]
Born in Cameroon before moving to the US at the age of six, Lorine Chia's backstory is anything but straight-forward; and the music she is making aptly follows suit. A soul-stirring take on classic r'n'b; rich, dense and full of heart. New single Can We, is glorious; Lorine's vocal taking centre-stage, steering the track through minimal beats and gorgeous production. More than that though, Lorine has that little something about her that makes her feel like a true star already. A full length record is in the [...]
In an interesting cosmic coincidence, this week marks notable anniversaries for two of the more significant debut albums in the world of rock 'n' roll: 25 years ago yesterday, the Pixies released Surfer Rosa , while 50 years ago today, the Beatles released Please Please Me . Perhaps the most interesting thing about this is the contrast between the quality of the records — Surfer Rosa was a fully realized artistic vision, while Please Please Me only hinted [...]
Five days in the freezing cold North was pretty much what I needed to clear my head last week. Babies, booze and a surprise party for a very unsuspecting (and barely able to stand up) "birthday" boy. Plus being able to go ACTUAL record shopping? Awesomeness. While we were wandering around the below song was playing. So I asked the record store guy who it was (because that's a pretty rad beat) and his response was the following: "This is the quintessential record for record store nerds. You should buy it." Um yeah, the rest of it's kinda crap but [...]
Stephen Malkmus lanzará un disco en vivo homenaje al Ege Bamyasi de Can El año pasado, Stephen Malkmus tocó completito el disco seminal de Can , Ege Bamyasi de 1972, para celebrar su 40 aniversario. El acto, sin duda, cautivó al público presente en el festival Week-End en Cologne, Alemania. No obstante, el cantante de Pavement , hará lo mismo durante el Record Store Day de este año (20 de abril). De acuerdo con Pitchfork , el concierto completo [...]
Last year, Stephen Malkmus performed Can's seminal album, Ege Bamyasi , in full for its 40th anniversary . The performance undoubtedly wowed audiences at Cologne's West-End Festival and now it'll do the same for Record Store Day buyers come Saturday, April 20th. As Pitchfork reports , the entire performance will be released on green (U.S.) and red (UK) vinyl limited to 3,500 copies. Peep the David Shrigley-designed cover art above and preview the night's set below. In semi-related news, Jack White recently was named official ambassador of Record Store Day . While [...]
Alexis Taylor has long since been something of an unorthodox heartthrob – perpetually gawky, although recurrently heartwarming and with that, reliably reassuring. And whether it be with Hot Chip, About Group or owt else, his studied output has been consistently exceptional. The trend comes to continue with a newfangled collaboration with Cologne techno nut Justus Köhncke (a name which may ping a few sampled bells, given his recent soundtrack work with Irmin Schmidt of Can) as the duo combine to create under the guise of Fainting by Numbers . A pun on an artform renowned for its absolute artlessness, there's a commensurate [...]

Jono Podmore (Cyclopean, Kumo, Metamono and Can archivist) remembers and revels in the brutal but innovative ‘post-punk industrial’ soundscapes of Cabaret Voltaire’s 1980 Rough Trade milestone.
