dntel - Dumb Luck This has been rattling around for a while I know, but dntel's new album comes out in just a couple weeks now so I thought I'd remind you people. One of the things I really enjoy about the indie music culture right now is the sense of community it can bring. Thanks to the internets, there's so much more we can read and listen and do together. Heck, music for robots started as a way for a small bunch of friends to keep up with each other's music collections--and that's exactly what it still does...
As evidence of how cool LA is, the Los Angeles City Council recently named Jenny Lewis a "Pioneer Woman" in honor of her artistic contributions to the Silver Lake area. When she got the award, Jenny said "This is for all of my neighbors who, for all these years put up with the musical racket coming from my tiny apartment in Silver Lake." This award is only given out once a year and Lewis was chosen because, as Silver Lake district president Eric Garcetti said, "The qualities of [...]

MP3: Dntel - Breakfast In Bed ( featuring Conor Oberst of Bright Eyes ) Dntel 's new record "Dumb Luck" hits later this month, chock full of hype and guests. It's not very good but I dig the track with Conor of Bright Eyes . It's not exciting by any means and I'm not really the biggest fan of either project, but it reminds me of Oberst's 2005 album "Digital Ash In A Digital Urn", an lp that I felt was a step forward ( he's since taken that [...]
Listeners. This is Podington's remix of "Dumb Luck", the title track to the upcoming album from Jimmy Tamborello's lauded avant-pop-electronic collab project Dntel. For those of you who may not know, Tamborello is also known as the co-writer/production whiz behind the The Postal Service, whose Give Up long passed "gold" status (selling over half a million copies in the US). Dumb Luck is the only track from the new album which features the unassuming vocals of Tamborello. The album features a laundry list of guest spots from Jenny Lewis ( Rilo Kiley ), [...]
Dntel - Natural Resources (Sub Pop 2007) Dntel - Dumb Luck / Sub Pop Life is Full of Possibilities . "(This is) The Dream of Evan & Chan." The Postal Service. Give Up . Wouldn't it be great if every review said this in the first line for Jimmy Tamborello's latest Dntel release and then didn't mention it again? Is there anyone who isn't tired of hearing how the monumental success of Give Up (second only to Bleach in Sub Pop's [...]
Wow, almost every song on this new Dntel album features somebody great on vocals. Dntel, aka Jimmy Tamborello aka James Figurine, is a man of many, many projects. He is a major part of The Postal Service, Figurine and Strickly Ballroom. This April he will release his first full-length Dntel album in the last six years. It's called Dumb Luck and will be released by Sub Pop on April 24th. Dntel's MySpace [...]

Επιτέλους ακούμε τα πρώτα δείγματα της προσωπικής δουλειάς της Dolores O'Riordan ( Cranberries ). Το άλμπουμ αναμένεται σπουδαίο (έχω ακούσει τρία κομμάτια και είναι όλα διαφορετικού ύφους...αυτό υποτίθεται ότι είναι καλό) και το κομμάτι που θέλουν όλοι οι fans των Cranberries να ακούσουν είναι το επόμενο. Επίσης, επέστρεψαν οι Travis και αν το single τους είναι το Closer, τα αυτιά όλων έχει κλέψει το Big Chair (κακία... : ίσως γιατί θυμίζει Keane του H&F?). Tέλος, και ο Dntel κυκλοφορεί το νέο του δίσκο με αρκετές συνεργασίες και πιο αποτυχημένη αυτή με τον [...]
So, YOU were Time Magazine's Person Of The Year last year, you know? Well, it's time to own up. Thanks to the internet, three artists are asking you to help them: Jarvis Cocker, the ex-Pulp, British (now Parisian) dandy, is planning on touring his debut solo record, Jarvis, in the US; via Pitchfork, we heard that American and Canadian bands are welcome to propose their services as opening acts.

March was another remarkable month for indie music, particularly in terms of financial success. Arcade Fire's near chart-topping sales for Neon Bible were outdone a few weeks later by the new Modest Mouse, which took Billboard's top spot despite what many considered a threateningly early leak. I guess bizarre concert antics really do pay off. Speaking of which, the Flaming Lips officially announced their plans to turn Yoshimi into a Broadway musical. In spite of these mountains of hype, two other bands drew serious attention this month simply by offering previews of [...]
Seattle lable Sub Pop has recently decided to push the newest record from Jimmy Tamborello (aka Figure aka DNTEl aka that guy who made all of the beats for the Postal Service) by issuing an amazing opportunity for would-be Timbaland's or Neptunes or Y.A.C.H.T.s, etc. Here's the low-down: Starting right now, and running until May 29th, 2007, we are having a Dntel remix contest. The idea here is pretty simple and goes something like this: You download the vocal track for the song Dumb Luck from [...]
In the past month, I've bought new albums by Modest Mouse , Arcade Fire , Explosions in the Sky , Low, Eluvium, Andrew Bird, LCD Soundsystem, Do Make Say Think , Jesu, Bonnie "Prince" Billy (EP), and Bright Eyes (the Four Winds EP - I don't have Cassadaga yet), as well as Sun Kil Moon 's re-release of the brilliant Ghosts of the Great Highway and Caspian 's first album (I can't wait for The Four Trees now). So that's [...]
Dntel - "Dumb Luck" from Dumb Luck, due April 24 on Sub Pop. Can't wait for the next Postal Service album? Do you wish Wilco would make another Yankee Hotel Foxtrot? Do you like the sound of electronic equipment sputtering...
הופה! מסורת חדשה בעונג שבת: אוסף תקופתי, מקרי ולא מחייב של שירים נפלאים מהשבועות האחרונים. ההורדה? חינם. הקריטריונים? מה שעשה לי כיף ולא הספיק להיכנס כ"שיר הפתיחה" או סיום בעונג השבועי. והפעם: 12 שירים, מסקוטלנד עד נברסקה, מפולק ועד היפ-הופ, מארקייד פייר ועד אלביס פרקינס.
