Adam Green & Binki Shapiro – Adam Green & Binki Shapiro [Rounder/Decca] Ele é metade do Moldy Peaches e ela um terço do Little Joy . E juntos, Adam Green e Binki Shapiro , lançam seu álbum de estreia cheio de romantismo e saudosismo. Em seu debut, Binki consegue superar o fato de, tecnicamente, não ser uma cantora de muitos recursos com uma voz extremamente espontânea e doce. Adam também é espontâneo, mas nesse caso com uma voz grave, que em contraste com sua parceira faz [...]
![[MEGA Playlist] 60+ Instrumental Tracks You Need to Listen to](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4741497_lg.jpg)
Everyone loves lyrics. Whether they're light-hearted and playful, soul-gripping and gut-wrenching, or abstract and avant garde, we all love to sing along, relate certain verses to our personal lives, or just be taken away by another person's story. On the other hand, hearing a great instrumental track is an entirely different experience. Without having words to identify with, your brain is free to let the music create an image in your mind. The interpretation is more so up to you than if you had someone defining it with their own words. Having this blank canvas allows your mind [...]

Lo último que habíamos hablado sobre Mogwai era A Wrenched Virile Lore , un disco de remezclas de su último álbum de estudio, Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will . Sin embargo, los escoceses no quieren quedarse quietos y han grabado la banda sonora de Les Revenants, una serie de zombies de la televisión francesa. El resultado se traducirá en un nuevo disco de Mogwai con el nombre de la serie, que incluirá 14 canciones y que se publicará el 25 de febrero . [...]

No fim do ano passado foi anunciado que os escoceses do Mogwai fariam trilha sonora do seriado francês Les Revenants (em português, Fantasmas), que conta a história de mortos-vivos que tentam se reintegrar à misteriosa cidade onde morreram. Apesar de o lançamento do álbum com a trilha sonora completa ser apenas no dia 25 de fevereiro, já é possível ouvir na íntegra Wizard Motor , que assim como a maioria das músicas do Mogwai , mistura intensidade e delicadeza perfeitamente. "A missão que nos foi dada foi muito vaga - o [...]
![[Listen] Mogwai: "Wizard Motor"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4737514_lg.jpg)
Mogwai ha estado involucrándose en proyectos bastante finos desde que editaron su mas reciente material de larga duración, a la que incluso el año pasado decidieron sacarle un poco más de provecho al poner a la venta un material de remixes que en su momento les vine a dejar por aquí en su modalidad de stream, y aunque seguramente por ahí ya se habían enterado de que Mogwai estaría encargándose de crear el soundtrack para un show francés de zombies llamado "Les Revenants", y aunque de manera oficial este soundtrack estará siendo editado el próximo 25 de [...]

As previously reported , Scottish post-rockers Mogwai recently shuffled into the studio to score the French TV zombie show Les Revenants . Before the record arrives in stores later next month, the group has shared the track titled, "Wizard Motor". While other samples purveyed a sense of delicacy, this track's warbly synth is the perfect soundtrack for a horde of geeks marching through some abandoned city. "The remit given to us was very vague – which was ideal – but we were still working to instruction for the first time, which offered [...]

Mogwai have confirmed they'll be releasing the soundtrack they put together for the Canal+ series Les Revenants , this February. The band were asked to work on the series based on the soundtrack they put together for Zidane: A 21st Century Portrait . Check out the stream of 'Wizard Motor' below, and keep your eye out for the album when it's released on February 25th.

Los escoceses Mogwai han estado trabajando en la banda sonora de la serie Les revenants , para la estación francesa de televisión Canal+. Stuart Braithwaite y sus secuaces musicalizaron los capítulos de la serie basada en hechos sobrenaturales y de inspiración zombie, a través de cortes que explotan su acostumbrada e infalible fórmula de post rock, esta vez con altas dosis de misterio. El material será publicado a modo de EP a fines de enero y la banda sonora completa está agendada para el 25 de febrero. Todo en Rock Action Label, casa discográfica del [...]
The Cargo Culte lay in a collection of mixes that BaddBob and I began sharing in the late fall and winter of 2008. A few scant months after the banking meltdown I found myself back in Los Angeles after eight years of wandering, living off of unemployment. BaddBob a behind the scenes guy in television [...]

Mogwai - Wizard Motor Mogwai - San Pedro (The Soft Moon remix) Here's a bit of advice. When Glaswegian instrumental architects Mogwai record the soundtrack to a French television series about zombies , just shut the fuck up and pay attention, ok? This here short-but-sweet EP is just a quick lil' taste, while the full OST will be available next month - both hot on the heels of A Wrenched Virile Lore , the remixed companion piece to the [...]
Mogwai is a group that can consistently produce emotional tracks by consistently breaking tradition. Sub-Pop , 2012 9.3 / 10 The diversity of sound in Mogwai ’s A Wrenched Virile Lore is too vast for a review on a website to cover. It might have something to do [...]

Mogwai’s newest release, A Wrenched Virile Lore, is not, in fact, a new Mogwai release at all – it is a collection of 10 remixes (eight remixes, a “reworking” and a “reshape,” to be specific) of tracks from 2011’s Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will. And much like a game’s expansion pack, it cannot fully be understood or appreciated without the original base content, as it serves to enhance what’s already in place; it cannot stand alone. One of the biggest concerns with any remix album (or remastering, or live album) is the very real potential of [...]
