Tatiana Kochkareva wowed at the SoundDessert showcase last Friday, and since then the music video for her song "Fly High" has premiered on both PureVolume and AOL Music . As PureVolume's Alyssa Coluccio so eloquently puts it: Despite its stunning setting, there's an eerie quality to Tatiana Kochkareva's new video, "Fly High." It's as though the lush gardens she wanders are filled with dark secrets and hidden ghosts. This unsettling quality is only furthered by the garden's massive [...]
Strong, yet gentle, Scout eases the pain of the long wait for their next album by letting genuinely organic experiences take the shape of an LP.
Today is a lovely day, but I think I have a cold coming on so I'm lying low. My throat is scratchy and my body aches, but I really don't feel all that bad yet so I figure I'm nipping it in the bud as Barney Fife used to say. I am late today as I slept late and my usual Sunday call to my sister was for two hours. We talked about my grandparents and where they used to live and what we remembered. My mother's parents lived for a long while in an apartment in East [...]
For a project that wants to remain anonymous, Rhye sure is trying to make waves with its music. So, in support of the fantastically beautiful song " Open ," the project has seen fit to release a video performing the song. A video, yes, but it doesn't exactly feature the identities of those involved in Rhye. Rather, it seems to be shot from behind the musicians as an audience of one quietly listens with great intent.
Sofia Talvik live at Fresh Brewed Coffee House Last night I played at the Fresh Brewed Coffee House in Myrtle Beach, SC and when they heard that I had a few days off they kindly invited me to do another show on Monday January 9th . So around 5.30pm I'll play some songs in the front room. If you can't catch me in Myrtle Beach you might want to try South Port, NC where I'm playing January 11th at the Playhouse 211 . [...]
Now that this blog only covers local music, I decided that all of my year-end lists this year will be Atlanta music specific. There's plenty of sites that do national/international lists anyway. So then, this is my 40 favourite songs of the year by artists affiliated with Atlanta. I spent a lot of time with each of these songs, and if you are unfamiliar with any of them, I strongly suggest you click on the song titles below to give them a listen. 40. "Black Leaves" by [...]
Lost of new wonderful music and projects coming from the stellar London/Berlin label Erased Tapes , after their recent stunning albums from Nils Frahm "Fetlt" and everyones favorite A Winged Victory For The Sullen S/T featuring Dustin O'Halloran and Adam Witzie here are more news form the label. Following the 2009 "Found Songs" where Ólafur Arnalds released during a week a free song everyday, now the Iceland composer presents from his own living room in Reykjavík the "Living Room Songs", this time the songs will be preform live and [...]

The subject was not roses but great first impressions , including the one Matthew Sweet made with "Dinosaur Act," Track 1 on Altered Beast , his brilliant but critically and commercially overlooked 1993 album. That post got me thinking about roses that never fully bloomed (I guess the subject is roses, after all) and stars that should have been supernovas. I'll never understand why Ke$ha is famous and Luciana isn't. Why Mariah Carey and sometimes Janet Jackson ruled the [...]
Chapter 17 of this Carole King series takes a look at an intimate live album from the famed songstress.

Please enjoy an acoustic video session from Jeffrey Foucault performing the track Everybody's Famous from his Slowcoustic top 10 of the year album "Horse Latitudes".

![[CMJ 2011 Recap] Elizabeth gets rewired with Cities Aviv, Datarock, Blonde Summer and more](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3818130_lg.jpg)
New York City is pretty much already the definition of sensory overload, all by itself, on a random Tuesday, in the middle of nothing, when half of the city calls in sick. So when it's time for the annual cluster-you-know-what known as the CMJ Music Marathon ? If I were Johnny-Five , my circuits would have shorted. Lucky for you, I just eeked by in the "living to tell about it" category, so I here I am, living. And telling you about it! In no particular order, I present to you: my favorite finds from CMJ [...]

Click image to download full album Sounds like: Hauschka, Max Richter, Sigur Ros, Balmorhea "Olafur Arnalds - This Place Is A Shelter" What's so good? Olafur Arnalds' new series, Living Room Songs , is an accessible listen to classical that holds no pretence. Positively moving, the songs take ambient music to another scale. This is music that encourages deeper listening from its pure beauty. [...]
