The Revival Hour - Hold Back Nouveau projet de DM Stith, à lire sur DLF
Stumble upon any blog post today and you'll likely encounter some wistful thinking of the demise of summer. Come hither, however, and with this one we're already impatiently awaiting Christmas and the welcomely schmaltzy songs it brings. Somewhat subversively, the all-year-round-exemplary Sufjan Stevens is to release the next five volumes of his Songs For Christmas series on November 13th so we've only a little over a month to wait, and although it may be a little early to go quivering over its festive surrealities and cutesy carols as though we've mushy slush down the slacks, Christmas [...]
Nothing has, upon this far from merry, merry morn, made me long to slosh about in the reservoirs building about London contemporarily quite like this from The Revival Hour . This revitalising creative coming together – staged in Rochester, NY – unites Sufjan Stevens' go-to guy DM Stith and John Mark Lapham of beardy Atlantic straddlers The Earlies in the most harmonious of artistic matrimonies. And Pyre, their first internet outing, is a soft and sly uplifter to recall Patrick Watson were the Canadian crooner ever again to drift anywhere near Close To Paradise . As heartwarming and [...]
I'm always impressed when people put together unique live performances, and it's even better when the performances can be done for a good cause. That's the case with the Noncerts series, which first happened in Brooklyn back in April, and has now made its way to Rochester, where the first event will take place this Sunday, July 1st. The show is happening at Good Luck . Originally tickets ranged from $60-$100, which included dinner (and some alcohol if you opted for a higher level of ticket), but just yesterday they dropped the dinner part of the event [...]
DM Stith - I Stay Still It’s a song about holiday despair and separation and holy despair and loneliness and shopping despair and motion and stillness and a snowstorm and it’s set in upstate NY. ( source ) Chaque année depuis 4 ans, Sounds Familyre propose une compilation de chansons de Noël et cette année une nouvelle chanson a été dévoilée chaque jour sur Bandcamp . Parmi ces chansons un nouveau titre de DM [...]
DM Stith and John Mark Lapham are joined at the hip as The Revival Hour, a duo bent on canvassing their music in all the vintage colors of the rainbow.

My Brightest Diamond returns to show the Indie world how a song should be written. Every sound is expertly placed and lyric wonderfully delivered.

Het yMusic sextet begint een aardige reputatie te krijgen in de popmuziek. De blazers en strijkers van yMusic werkten al samen met St. Vincent en The National. Het sextet helpt nu My Brightest Diamond om misschien wel haar mooiste album te maken. De stem van Shara Worden en de instrumenten van yMusic vullen elkaar prachtig aan. In het sprookjesachtige In The Beginning en het theatrale Ding Dang klinken stem en instrumenten als één organisch geheel. Shara’s labelgenoot DM Stith komt nog even langs om samen met Shara het duet Everything Is In Line [...]
I don't get to see my Sister very often because we live on opposite sides of the country from eachother. She came to visit me this past weekend and forgot a couple of cd's in my car when she left. Even though Montreal is a lot better known for it's music scene than Jasper, we still seem to have very similar taste in tunes. Here is the first one I popped into the ole stereo and have been listening to for the past 3 days. Reminds me of summer. Stay tuned for the second cd... 1. [...]
PS11 | środa | czwartek | piątek | sobota | niedziela | TRIÁNGULO DE AMOR BIZARRO (San Miguel) Nie jest łatwo otwierać główną scenę sporego festiwalu, szczególnie jeśli, tak jak Galisyjczycy, dysponuje się jednym ostrym numerem i całym magazynkiem przeciętnych ślepaków. Skradliśmy jednak z koncertu to na czym nam zależało – rzeczone kapitalne „De la monarquía a la criptocracia” w wersji (całkiem) żywej. Reszta bez historii, więc pielgrzymki do Santiago nie będzie. DM STITH i SUFJAN STEVENS [...]
Twitter has established itself as a powerful tool for sharing and obtaining information about a wide range of subjects. Since my interests are fairly limited, I have mostly elected to use this emerging medium as a channel through which to locate interesting new music. The ability to publish short, informal messages to a user created...

South by Southwest may be the rear view mirror, but there's still plenty of opportunities to hear new music. Case in point is this week's Friday Mixtape, which features brand new jams from the likes of Fleet Foxes, Fucked Up, Thurston Moore, Bill Callahan, YACHT, and more. Plus, courtesy of our friends at Cover Me , there are covers of everyone from Kanye West and Adele to Leonard Cohen and Broken Social Scene posted below. And we still have mentioned the remixes, as well as the mp3s from brand spakin' new acts worth knowing. So, yeah, South by Southwest, [...]
