British music troupe Piano Magic is one of hard-to-classify bands - since their music contains bits of ambience, rock and anything in between, its no wonder that they were called anything from post-rock to ambient pop to indietronica. Piano Magic was formed in the mid 90s as a band with a small nucleus of core performers [...]

Some of the most talent musicians in the world remain practically unknown despite an abundance of quality material. There is no concise explanation for it, even if the most common response is related to the lack of accessibility in actually obtaining the music. It simply proves that recognition, while beneficially attributed, has little merit in determining an artist's level of talent or commitment. Today's feature chronicles two artists at dramatically different stages in their music careers. One, Piano Magic , has been producing quality music for over a decade with an undeservedly low amount of recognition, while the other, [...]
So, I finally made this one! Saturday night, after a pint of Guinness (since An Club didn't open until 22.00) and there we were just in front of the small stage with a second beer in our hands awaiting for the Magic to appear on stage. This took a while longer since the band finally made their appearance a few minutes before 23.00, but who cared? (not me definitely, since after Animals
It's time for some magic tonight...Piano Magic@An Club tonight at 21.30...See ya there!!

occasionally a compilation comes along that is nothing less than genre-defining. foundry's "will our children thank us" is one of those. but what genre exactly? i guess you'd have to call it british post-rock perhaps. or new neu maybe. or something else entirely. or better still nothing at all. 1. throwing a curve ball - appliance 2. glenda - billy mahonie 3. carnival of souls [ghost train dub] - pram 4. fonk - electric sound of joy 5. close frank falling - wisdom of harry 6. peggy's well - novak 7. biggest lie - piano magic 8. eeriel [...]

imagem em homesleepmusic Eis mais um bom álbum para este ano de 2007. "Part Monster" dos Piano Magic , está recheado de boas músicas, músicas melancólicas, a fazer lembrar em alguns momentos os Sigur Rós. Para os curiosos, pode-se ouvir algumas dessas faixas no espaço da banda no myspace, aqui. Depois existem sempre aqueles locais onde é possível aceder a mais qualquer coisa da banda, e neste caso a toda a discografia. A julgar por este álbum, de que falo, os restantes também serão uma surpresa. O melhor será explorar [...]

First let's get near the water Deep Listening Band - Cave Water Troglodyte's Delight (1990 Deep Listening) Now fall into its body Badly Drawn Boy - Fall in a River The Hour of the Bewilderbeast (2000 XL Recordings) Getting drowned is trippy. To watch the water flows by and feel the touch of water surround you is obsessive. It's safest place and no one and nothing bothers. We could have a nice walk at the [...]

This morning, the Chicagoland Bicycle Federation held their annual "Winter Bike To Work Day" in honor of the anniversary of the coldest day ever recorded in Chicago; a delightful -27 degrees recorded at O'Hare on Jan. 20th, 1985. So, in honor of that glorious occasion and the hearty souls who braved the elements on two wheels this morning, we present nothing but "Winter" songs this week on the 8-track. Program 1: 1. The High Dials - "Winter Ghosts" - from [...]

Tiny Lights, Mike Golding The Sharpest Knife In The Drawer - Piano Magic I won't attempt to catalogue the myriad tiny wonders of this song. I wouldn't know where to start and when to stop. Instead, allow me to direct you to just one winking bulb in a string of sparkly fairy lights. Here, starting at 1:26, a small spit of [...]
E' un po' come finire a preparare un esame dell'università la notte (le notti) prima, e sperare che il professore non ti chieda i capitoli che non hai studiato. Ed è un po' come salire su un palcoscenico ben sapendo di dover improvvisare una buona metà delle battute. Non sono bravo a recitare. Ma, come credo ormai sappiate, sono bravo a dire cazzate. Speriamo che basti. Vi lascio con un regalo: [C'è anche l'astronave da 300 punti. Io torno in un paio di giorni. Con qualche migliaio di punti, auspicabilmente]
