O selo 4AD lançará no dia 4 de fevereiro mais uma coletânea da Red Hot Organization [nada a ver com a banda e sim a ONG internacional que cuida das campanhas de conscientização e combate à AIDS bem conhecida de quem assistia a MTV nos anos 90 ]. O disco vai se chamar " Dark Was The Night " [nome de uma canção do bluesman Blind Willie Johnson], tem produção da turma do The National e trás só o filé do cenário alternativo com músicas inéditas naquele clima melancólico-positivista [...]
Coming out on February 17th is 'Dark Was The Night', a compilation benefiting the Red Hot Organization. Anyway, over at the myspace for the record they are streaming each song for a day, one by one through the whole 2 discs until the album releases.

It is a slow, very acoustic affair with some very interesting orchestration played out behind it, and certainly [...]

G R R R WEEKEND TRACK STACKER (Jan 19th Releases) words: Jamie Milton Single releases/reviews aren't all the rage any more. All retailers are off the pulse with them (Woolworths were still stocking the Spice Girls up until a fortnight ago) and purchasers, that's you lot, don't um...purchase anymore. Sure, a 7" frenzy in yr local recordstore is one of the most liberating shopping experiences a man can get but they only happen on rare occasions. But downloading [...]

Mettere insieme una compilation che abbia una sua coerenza musicale interna e non appaia invece come una confusa sequenza di canzoni buttate lì a casaccio non è facile - ed infatti il mercato è sommerso di CD di artisti vari completamente inutili. Non è il caso però di "Dark Was The Night", compilation messa assieme da Aaron e Bryce Dessner dei The National per la 4AD ed a favore dell'organizzazione umanitaria Red Hot, che ad anni si batte per arginare la piaga dell'Aids, in uscita il 16 febbraio ed autentico primo botto dell'anno. Non posso postarvi alcuna canzone, ma date [...]
