Coachella 2012 lineup is out! Of particular interest to Waved Rumor is: - the high profile slot for Jeff Mangum (Neutral Milk Hotel) - The Hives! The Hives! Need I say more? - the small type/dayslot for Black Lips?? C'mon Coachella - Black Lips rule the stage! - Noel Gallagher and his Birds (or wot ever) - maybe it will be a star-studded celeb fest? - Radiohead - eh....I've never been a Radiohead head. What do you see that pokes your eyeballs in a good way?
Techno producers are traditionally among the most experimental of electronic artists, but even so it is rare to find an individual who can achieve equal success musically and conceptually. Lucy is one such individual. He possesses the sort of profound understanding of his craft that is normally reserved for noise and ambient artists such as Keith Fullerton Whitman ; seemingly innate knowledge of construction right through from the fundamentals to the subtlest tweak of a snare. Wordplay For Working Bees is a debut album that uses techniques varying from the crushing industrial bleakness of [...]

Oh, folks. Have I got a tale for you. As a matter of fact, now that I'm thinking about it, I don't have a tale for you. Because words cannot accurately render how incredible last night's screening of The Room was. It was without a doubt the greatest movie-watching experience of my life. Setting aside the beers at Golden State, the beers at Surly Goat, the bottle of wine consumed while waiting in line, or the bottle of Jack Daniels consumed in the movie theater, I haven't laughed that hard in God knows how long. If [...]
The other day I began to describe the origins of the Sunday Mix Tape feature. Today, I'll describe the end of an era. The second fifty mix tapes, which commenced on January 28th, 2007, saw an increased amount of attention paid to marginalized artists. It was almost as if the first few dozen installments were my way of convincing people to come along for the ride, and the second fifty mix tapes were my way of introducing people to the really good shit. Three years ago, before the reissue and the recent Pitchfork review, you'd never see an [...]

As the ghosts of summer depart, the skyline paints itself a solemn grey - the cool winds of loss become ever more apparent. Not only through heat, but also by the withdrawl of warm colours - even the vibrancy of reds and yellows dull somewhat, leaving a void of life in its place.Autumn is indeed the struggle, but soon even those steeped in brown tinted age must soon move on. It doesn't mean I
"Our home is Epsilon Boötis, which is a double star. We live on the sixth planet of seven—check that, the sixth of seven—counting outwards from the sun, which is the larger of the two stars. Our sixth planet has one moon. Our fourth planet has three. Our first and third planet each have one. Our [...]
Après le printemps vient l'été, ses couleurs chatoyantes, ses températures affolantes qui donnent au citoyen lambda l'envie irrépressible de feuilleter les catalogues des agences de voyages durant la pause-cabinet, et de se précipiter à peine reculotté dans l'aéroport le plus proche, afin de claquer ses derniers dinars pour quelques jours d'euphorie et de dépaysement loin du stress de son lieu de vie. Ce rafraîchissement, les quatre Barcelonais de Delorean le condensent en musique depuis presque dix ans maintenant et établissent la cartographie sensorielle parfaite pour touriste de la capitale catalane : sea, sex, sun… Et Melancholia… Ayant une [...]
All the way from Japan, the LED eyelashes are set to take over the world. They're attached on a wire of course, but it can be well hidden. Brings new meaning to seeing light emanate for someone. It's quite sexy, isn't it? Posted in Asian Persuasion, D Is For Design, Tech Techa Tagged: es, eyelash, led, project
Friday 25th Sept - Colston Hall, Bristol brought to us by Qu-Junktions Nibbled on the best chips I've tasted in a long time as we wandered back through Park Street, sucking on the fishy smells floating out of the Hatchet's open windows. The city was starting to take on a different life, the air getting chilly…we played the polystyrene cartons, they mixed well with the gulls and traffic… back at the Colston, time was slipping, eel like… [...]
Es - Kesä Ja Hymyilevät Huulet Ignatz & Harris Newman - I Will Bring You Buzzard Meat Sublimey coloured harsh ambience from Finland's Es, weird-ass Belgium malfunctions from Ignatz and Chris Forsyth's noise wanderings steeped in decades worth of American underground ephemera. Yeah, pretty excited for this UK Tour via Qu Junktions; lots of projected visuals (as if these sounds were imagistic enough anyway) and hypercolour tones in British pubs/castles.

As much as I dig this album I can't bring myself to tell anyone about it because 1.) I can't pronounce the name 2.) I can't describe these sounds. Like cupping a fly within both of your palms and holding your ear to the other side to hear its echoes fluttering about, Es ' Kesämaan Lapset is a realized album. Listens will tell you that now is the time to get out of bed and when I am through you will have finished breakfast and play some Bibio on your walk to class. A kaleidoscope [...]

Quand Sami Sänpäkkilä ne se trouve pas aux commandes du label Fonal Records , on le retrouve notamment dans la peau du projet Es . Et malgré le froid régnant souvent en Finlande, les premières notes délivrées de l'album "Kesämaan lapset" nous plongent directement dans un grand bain bouillant de synthés, de couleurs, de boucles et de sons qui pourrait très judicieusement expliquer la formation d'une aurore boréale...musicale. [MP3] Es - Ennen Oli Huonommin [MP3] [...]
Sami Sänpäkkilä is the driving force and divining rudder behind the wonderful world of Fonal and he's a pretty damn fine musician in his own right. As Es, Sami has always been able to mix classical, ambient and lingering strains of pop into a writhing bubble of sound that can't help but come across as a joyous romp with perception. On his latest Kesämaan Lapset (The Children of the Summerland), Sami's synths are set to warble, along with a pocketful of tones that weave their way into your consciousness only to fly away on the breeze seconds later. [...]
Es - Ennen Oli Huonommin This new Es LP combines spacey synths with more handspun guitar and piano sounds for probably her most realized solo release yet, exploring immersive harsh ambience with a whole lot of colour. It's total morning stuff and super slithery in a euphoric red matter sort of way, encasing those woods in a geodesic dome. It's true that you'll be fucked trying to pronounce/tell anyone about this record but the name translates to "The Children Of Summerland". Pretty apt given the sun-in-eyes vibrancy of this whole thing, super shimmery and delicate but [...]
Hi everybody! I've got nothing else to say! I'm in the middle of a frustrating work week, while everybody else i know is either away for a few days or relaxing at home. This should be an eventful week, though. Ken and kT are visiting, there are some great shows upcoming, and...uh...that's about it I guess. I'll have something more interesting to blog about after another open-to-close shift at work tomorrow. And I'm sure I won't at all sound depressed and/or acid-tongued. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to [...]
Hey readers, in case you did not see the note yesterday, my newest post for WFMU's Beware Of The Blog was published last night. It's received some very kind comments so far, and I'm very proud of what I put together for them. My fifth contribution to their website might just be my best effort yet.
