1999, fine millennio e roba del genere. Tra le altre cose esce il primo 103 della Constellation . Lo realizzano i Sackville . Cinque canzoni per un gruppo che ha girato anche fra Glitterhouse e Mag Whell Records . A tirare le fila Gabe Levine (poi in Black Ox Orkestar ). " The Principles Of Science " anticipa tanto delle miscele avant folk post duemila, con un'eleganza rara, fra ambiente e melodie concrete. Uno di quei dischi che, almeno ogni tanto, vanno tirati fuori. Per il semplice concetto dello stare bene [...]

![Gabe Levine – Long Spun Thread [Review]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3102723_lg.jpg)
For fans of Sackville (1994-2002) and Black Ox Orkestar (2000-2007) Gabe Levine is one of those musicians you definitely need to check out.

Its ten great tracks of catchy indie folk-pop tunes. There is some intimate feel when listening to him sing on each track. When I listen to Out on the Gold [...]

Sometimes, the overflow of information from things like twitter, facebook and hypem pays off. Obviously, in most cases twitter ends up being like a drunk relative on the mic at a wedding, but Saturday afternoon I saw a tweet from Rock Plaza Central front man Chris Eaton urging people to check out fellow non-folk, folker Gabe Levine . After a quick click to Levine's bandcamp site, I was hooked instantly by the infectious head nodding beat of "Believe Me" and realized there was no way Long Spun Thread [...]

Last night's show (Sunday, Sept. 26) was an excellent one. Gabe Levine of Takka Takka played a great opening set, some of which I expect will be on his forthcoming solo album (hopefully, more about that later). Basia Bulat and The Acorn played spectacular sets; The Acorn's Rolf Klausener may have missed his other calling as a stand-up comedian, and Basia Bulat as a Polish translator. Catch Basia Bulat On Tour (U.S. Dates): Sept 28 – Pontiac, MI – The Pike Room ! Sept 29 – Cleveland, OH – Beachland ! [...]
