Blogophilia Vol. 9 This edition of Blogophilia features new tracks off unreleased albums from Arctic Monkeys and the Flaming Lips, a couple of rockers from the Henry Clay People and We Were Promised Jetpacks (yet another good Scottish band, Scotland's best export is Rock-n-Roll I guess), and a subtle Blogophilia tribute to John Hughes with a cover of Pretty in Pink by the National. Total running time is 79:03. For those burning onto CDs, you may need to utilize the overburn feature on your burning software. Download by right click/save on the artwork above. [...]

This week Drake waxes poetic on the debut from Vancouver, BC's Japandroids (just in case you thought we were talking about Vancouver, WA), Sub Pop's new "Great Pop Hope", Fruit Bats , and the appropriator of his literary catchphrase, Mr. Joe Pernice . -ed. Drake's Take: New Releases 08.04.09 While the past few weeks have been hot, the releases have been all smoke but no fire. This week, there's plenty of flames between the full length debut from Vancouver, BC's Japandroids finally [...]

Ik bracht hier al eerder releases van het Asthmatic Kitty -label onder de aandacht (met name DM Stith ), en ook nu weer geniet ik volop van een via Luisterpaal ontdekt album. Asthmatic Kitty is a label from which I enjoyed releases by Sufjan Stevens and DM Stith , and now once more I encountered a release [...]

While the past few weeks have been hot, the releases have been all smoke but no fire. This week, there's plenty of flames between the full length debut from Vancouver, BC's Japandroids finally getting released on this side of the border and new releases from Fruit Bats, Modest Mouse, YACHT, Throw Me the Statue and Joe Pernice releasing a Novel Soundtrack (I should've trademarked the name!). Also, two releases from frontmen going solo in disguise (sort of). My Morning Jacket's Jim James releses an EP under the name Yim Yames while Interpol's Paul Banks does so under the moniker Julian [...]

Thanks to the internet more and more people are adventuring outside of their comfort zones and experimenting with the cultures of other people around the world. Music in particular has had all of its walls taken away thanks to the internet and bands like Konono No. 1, Peter, Bjorn & John, Ruby Suns, Os Mutantes, Boris and more, have been pushed to a larger audience of rabid music fans here in North America. Somehow, as these different styles of music have permeated our society, the sounds of Latin America haven't been able to make quite the same leap. Perhaps it's [...]
Starting August 22nd and ending August 27th, Helado Negro will be doing what only 50 Cent has done, and that is play a show in all 5 boroughs in New York City. They'll start out August 22nd in Queens, then play August 23rd in the Bronx. Roberto Lange and co. will then play in Manhattan August 24th, followed by Brooklyn on the 25th and Staten Island on the 27th. The Staten Island show is not one to miss, for they'll be playing on the Staten Island Ferry. I desperately wish I was in New York at that time. Along with [...]
Helado Negro is the solo venture from Roberto Carlos Lange, a Guillermo Scott Herren (Prefuse 73) collaborator. I first got wind of this release via Twitter.

It has taken snail mail, multiple recommendations and a few reminders but I have finally laid down and soaked in Helado Negro 's Awe Owe (out 8/4 on Asthmatic Kitty ). What I've found rooted in these expressions is a valuable documentation of how Roberto Carlos Lange understands sound and its incorporation into forming intended music. The character of "Dos Sueños" forms waves which remain at a constant bar, as the sounds of a guitar fade under the horizon a subtle and almost lullaby vocal melody rises in acknowledgment of where to keep focus. [...]

I nomi che si fanno ad Asthmatic Kitty per presentare il nuovo artista proposto per i prossimi mesi e incluso nel roster vanno da Tom Ze ad Arto Lindsay passando per Athur Russell e i Red Crayola. Niente di cui stupirsi, Helado Negro è il progetto di uno sperimentatore multiculturalista che oscilla tra brasile, Jazz, avanguardia e arte visiva; la prima creatura veramente compiuta di un musicista come Roberto Carlos Lange in realtà già attivo da qualche anno; Roberto ha regalato il suo contributo tropicalista ed elettronico a musicisti del calibro di School of [...]

Ca bringueballe, ça évoque la jungle, ça revendique l'Equateur, mais les arbres sont en plastique, c'est Brooklyn ici mec, avec de drôles d'oiseaux qui font poum poum tcha, poum poum tcha... Alors ça casse deux trois poubelles, attend mec, pour qui tu m'prends ? Somos hermaaaanos ... Ou pas. L'énergie se canalise dans les sillons, échappe au contrôle, d'une certaine manière la jungle reste intacte par ici. [MP3] Helado Negro - Deja [MP3] Helado Negro - Jellyfish
