I'm sure this will end with me being accused of treason of some kind, but just to settle... I really do love Christmas and I love you all. Aside from being the time of the year where fantastic deals heavenly praises flood suburban malls Earth-other than being a time to look to the age-old decorations of pine and tinsel to remind us of desire generosity-Christmas has some economical historical significance too. It recalls a very special time... You don't hate [...]
It's been several months since we've done a Forkast update. There are two main reasons for this. The first is, you know, who cares anyway? You have plenty of stuff to listen to without this. The second reason is that...
Were one to gather together 2007's best remixers for a single, you couldn't do much worse than selecting South Central, Ashley Beedle and Emperor Machine. Well these three Dons in fact come together on a new single by Lalula... the joy of which has been slightly tempered for me after just discovering through google that this is being released on the back of a Bacardi advert. Anyway, without
frYars This time last week, it would have been silly to refer to frYars as "the new Patrick Wolf", as the old model was still in perfect working condition and came supplied with all mod cons. But now it seems fitting. As the hi-fi pop inclinations of The Magic Position LP lead to soul-destroying promotional duties, one wandering antique Englishman falls as another begins to rise. With laptop beats and imaginative countryside lyrics, the soft-singing 17-year old Ben directly evokes the sauntering spirit of Lycanthropy or Wind in [...]
Jag är en hängiven lyssnare av radioprogrammet P3 Pop , där det varje måndag spelas ny, innovativ och überskum popmusik i två timmar. Min älskling Hanna Fahl, som ledde programmet, har blivit ersatt nu, men spelade den här i en av sina sista program. Jag grät en skvätt när jag hörde den och bestämde mig för att den skulle bli min favoritlåt i minst en månad framåt. Inte för att den är speciellt sorgsen, faktum är att den är rätt harmonisk och samstämd, men för att jag visste att jag skulle sakna Hanna till döds. Jag har hört att [...]
Exactly! Nothing new under the sun. I'm busy and expect to spend the next 12 hours at work. Unfortunately the pivotal point of life cannot be blogging, though that certainly would be quite an appealing scenario. But every now and then my "real life" job requires some attention, and with the next paycheck in mind, I'll try to focus on work today (at least for the next couple of hours…..)! Since I doubt very much that anyone are the slightest bit interested in my personal whinings, I've posted this absolutely gorgeous indie/electronic pop track instead (recorded by 17 year-old wunderkid [...]
The first time I heard frYars it was pretty much instant hate... like I wanted to turn it off and never hear it again. To spark such an instant gut reaction is actually a good thing though, and I find myself returning to his music. At times, his music seems a little hokey, but the rough spots are easily overshadowed by the good parts. Be careful because you might actually find yourself addicted to this guy. The fact that he's only 17 is very promising - frYars may actually mature into an excellent musician. Lots of potential here... [...]
