Confesso que, na expectativa que levava para este espectáculo, transportava a memória saudável do tempo dos godspeed you black emperor! ou, para não ser tão injusto na comparação, a dos primeiros álbuns da banda de Efrim Menuck, que também conhece nomes como The Silver Mt. Zion Memorial Orchestra e afins. Mas, convenhamos que o que ontem subiu ao palco da ZDB (subir é a palavra, a propósito;

Já não tenho bem presente, mas creio que era o meu aniversário, a Maio de 1999, e o meu amigo Rui trazia-me o primeiro álbum de uns tipos do Quebeque chamados godspeed you black emperor!, assim mesmo, com nome comprido para nenhum de nós confundi-los com os God Speed My Aeroplane do Jorge Ferraz ou com os God is My Co-Pilot, que então beneficiavam de uma certa
Going to New York till Saturday, then Washington DC until next Friday. Don't know if I'll be blogging much while I'm gone. On Sunday as I drove home from the RSAG gig I listened to F♯A♯∞ and the opening of this song seemed quite prescient. MP3: Godspeed You! Black Emperor - Providence from F♯A♯∞

Over the past couple weeks I have been having a craving for some good pyschedlic rock, and not the kind with lofty choir-like vocals, birds chirping, and songs about peace, love and becoming one with nature, more the kind with a lot of layers, preferrably with an edge and some good screeching guitar playing. Then on the other hand, I have been checking out some ambient artists that I haven't gotten into before. Both are a little of the old mixed with a little of the new. Some are more psychedelic or ambient than others, but they fit well into [...]

Post-Rock ist tot, es lebe Post-Rock. Nachdem Goodspeed You! Black Emperor den Bettel vorübergehend geschmissen haben, Explosions in The Sky teilweise gescheitert sind und Sigur Ros sich der atmosphärischen Pop-Musik zugewandt haben, war Post-Rock für kurze Zeit führungslos. Mogwai melden nun unmissverständlich ihren Führungsanspruch an. (more...)
I heard somewhere that Explosions in the Sky were breaking up, so I had to investigate. It's not true, their website just says this: " Hi Everyone, Well, our two years of near constant touring has come to an end. It is now time for us to sit quietly at home and try and write some new songs. We've been working in fits and starts and we're pretty excited about some of the music we're coming up with. There is really no telling when we may have a new album ready. [...]

hola, mr hand! firstly if you are ever in tennessee or looking for somewhere quite lovely to travel to/camp/fish/etc, i highly recommend fall creek falls which is in pikeville, tn. its a wee bit hillbilly-ish but its to be expected as its in the appalachian mountains for christ sakes, but the scenery and park is absolutely gorgeous. we only got to spend the better part of the day there but will probably be going back in sept/oct. here are just a few pics of one of the waterfalls and swimming holes - i had never seen [...]
Let's all just choose to forget about yesterday's shameful post, okay? I'm sorry for embarrassing myself so thoroughly; I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe if we all concentrate really hard we can wipe the memory of that-which-we-do-not-speak from our collective consciousness. Instead, I'm going to talk about live music. I have a pair of tickets on hold to see Spiritualized open for Nick Cave in September at the Hollywood bowl. It's been almost exactly ten years since I first watched Jason Pierce and Co. open for Radiohead at Radio City Music Hall. It was one of [...]

. LFSRs are usually chosen to have periods of exactly 2n-1. Linear congruential generators have periods that can be calculated by factoring. Mixes (no restrictions) have periods of about 2n/2 on average, usually after walking through a nonrepeating starting sequence. Mixes that are reversible (permutations) have periods of about 2n-1 on average, and the period will always include the original internal state. Although PRNGs will repeat their results after they reach the end of their period, a repeated result does not imply that the end of the period has been reached. ( wiki ) . [...]
When Mono rolled through town a couple weeks ago I became acutely aware of the fact that I hadn't really listened to a lot of "post-rock" (or whatever you want to call it) in ages. I didn't end up going to see Mono but I did seem to make an unconscious decision to see if the post-rock genre still held some of the magic it did for me about seven years ago. This little musical journey led to, inevitably, Godspeed You! Black Emperor . Godspeed remain a band I love, despite the fact that I [...]
