Esse não é, propriamente, um som "for the dancefloor", mas vale a apresentação por se tratar de projeto de um dos membros do The Strokes, o bateirista Fab Moretti, com o ex-membro do Los Hermanos, Rodrigo Amarante. Juntamente com a namorada de Moretti, Binki Shapiro, eles criaram o Little Joy. O projeto tem o mesmo nome de um bar de Los Angeles, próximo ao apartamento onde eles passaram a morar juntos para compor as músicas. O álbum de estréia está previsto para sair no dia 11 de novembro desse ano. O som lembra bastante o do The Strokes, [...]
aaron giesel Download: The Entrance Band "Grim Reaper Blues" (from Prayer of Death out now on Tee Pee) Download: Little Joy "No One's Better Sake" One of my favorite L.A. bands (used to be Long Beach, too—bassist Paz lived right downtown) playing one of [...]
Strokes drummer, Fab Moretti has started the side project, " Little Joy ". Named after a Los Angeles, Echo Park dive bar of the same name, the band consists of Moretti's girlfriend Binki Shapiro and Brazillian singer guitarist Rodrigo Amarante (formerly of Los Hermanos ) who all moved in to a house together in the area. It sounds remarkably similar to a stripped down version of the Strokes which I have absolutely no complaints about. An 11 track album is being released November 4th. Check out more Little Joy at [...]
In case you somehow missed this the other day, Rough Trade is now " officially " streaming " Keep Me in Mind ," one of the Strokes -iest (and best) songs from Little Joy 's awesome self-titled debut LP: You can also now pre-order the record on vinyl here for 12 bucks . Fab Moretti and crew will kick off a U.S. tour in November, but first they'll play a few shows ( starting tonight ) on the West Coast with Devendra [...]
Download: Spiritualized 'Soul On Fire' (from Songs In A&E on Universal) Tons of hustlers trying to push in (and Crystal Antlers opposite downstairs) but thanks to Liz we could bulldoze in. All the classics (like a destructive 'Come Together') presented on a field of white light except for a hurting lack of '2.352 (though they did do the Nashville version of 'Walking With Jesus'; plenty of singalong for the sound of love) with true [...]
The Strokes'un hikayesi tam anlamıyla "Biraz zamana ihtiyacımız var." diyip kendi yoluna devam eden ama hiç bir zaman da ayrılmaya cesaret edemeyen çiftlere dönmeye başlamışken Nikolaj ve Albert'tan sonra bir yan proje haberi de grubun davulcusu Fabrizio'dan geldi... Kız arkadaşı ve Brezilya'dan çocukluk arkadaşı olan bir gitaristle yola çıktıkları Little Joy'u duyurdular. İsmi de ironik olmuş, Little Joy . Albüm 4 Kasımda Rough Trade etiketiyle çıkacak ve yayımlanan 3 şarkı için diyebilirim ki kulağa çok hoş geliyor !! The Strokes cephesine dair de bir kaç kelime söylemek gerekirse 2009'un ilk yarısında geriye dönmeyi düşündüklerini söylemişler ancak şimdilik [...]
Esse post é dedicado aos que não estão nem aí para as comparações, que começam a pipocar, entre o Marcelo Camelo e o Rodrigo Amarante . Apesar de serem interessantes, afinal a banda lá sofreu o tal racha e agora muita gente está (ou não, foda-se) procurando entender os porquês (como apontou o Matias , no post em que achei tudo que queria saber, depois que vi sobre a banda na comunidade poeirenta da Bizz ) e avaliando conforme os caras passam a produzir solo e tal... Eu [...]
Update: 3 Tracks are now online over at the Myspace. Enjoy a sneak peak: Little Joy- No One Better's Sake Another few months pass, and another member of The Strokes announces their own side project. Obviously feeling that he missed out on the solo-pie, Fabrizio Moretti (aka the drummer) has been brewing his own project, entitled Little Joy. The project itself sounds enticing (anything even remotely connected to The Strokes gets most people going), although Devendra [...]
The Strokes ' drummer Fabrizio Moretti is on track to release the debut album for his side project band, Little Joy , later this year. The 11 track album, which is due out in the US on November 4, was produced by Noah Georgeson who also produced Devendra Banhart 's ' Cripple Crow ', and ' Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon ' as well as Joanna Newsom 's ' The Milk-Eyed Mender '. If you want to catch Little Joy live they are set to tour the West Coast [...]
Luego de meses de misterio, por fin tenemos más información sobre el primer álbum de Little Joy , proyecto alterno del baterista de The Strokes , Fabrizio Moretti . La banda lanzará su primera producción homónima el próximo 4 de noviembre a través de la disquera Rough Trade , además de realizar un pequeño tour a finales de este mes por algunas ciudades de los Estados Unidos al lado del grupo Megapuss and the Entrance Band (compuesto por Devendra Banhart y Gregory Rogove). Como [...]
After a year that included the release of the awesome Smokey Rolls Down Thunder Canyon and the beginning of a relationship with beautiful actress Natalie Portman , professional weirdo and psych-rocker exrtaordinaire Devendra Banhart ain't finished yet. As previously rumored, the Venezuelan-American folk singer is now a member of the rock duo appropriately named Megapuss . Teaming up with Priestbird's multi-instrumentalist/percussi onist, Greg Rove, the two will release their album, Surfing , through Neil Young's Vapor Records digitally on September 16th and physically on October 7th (via Jambase ). [...]
Megapuss , one of the many side projects Devendra Banhart is a member of, is set to tour later this month with another side project, that of Strokes drummer Fabrizio Moretti . Moretti 's side project, Little Joy , will hit the road with Banhart for a six date jaunt kicking off September 24. Moretti will be playing double duty as he [...]
As Strokes guitarist Albert Hammond Jr. releases his solo album, bandmate, drummer Fabrizio Moretti prepares his side project release. Moretti 's side project, Little Joy , is a collaboration with his girlfriend, Binki Shapiro and their friend Brazilian singer-guitarist Rodrigo Amarante , formerly of Los Hermanos . The album, which according to Rolling Stone is reminiscent of Antonio Carlos Jobim , Vince Guaraldi and "Sixties wall-of-sound" girl groups, is set for an autumn release via Rough Trade records in the US. [...]
Aunque Albert Hammond Jr. ha declarado en numerosas ocasiones durante los últimos meses que los integrantes de The Strokes planean juntarse para grabar un nuevo disco en el 2009, las evidencias parecen indicar todo lo contrario. Ya les había platicado hace algunas semanas sobre el proyecto solista de Nikolai Fraiture , Nickel Eye , que lanzará un disco en el otoño. Pues bien, ahora se acaba de anunciar que otro Stroke también tendrá su propio proyecto. Hablo del baterista del grupo, Fabrizio [...]
We're hoping the Guardian will do one of its nifty wallcharts to help us keep track of all the Strokes side projects: now, Fabrizio is doing something : with his girlfriend, Binki Shapiro, and their singer-guitarist pal Rodrigo Amarante, who used to play in Brazilian indie-rock group Los Hermanos. Apparently the project, Little Joy, sounds like wall of sound girl groups - which is tantalising if true.
