Είχα ένα όνειρο. Οτι είχαμε λέει πρωθυπουργό που χαίρει εκτιμήσεως. Ότι είχαμε λέει ξεφορτωθεί με μιας όλους τους ανειδίκευτους και ανεπάγγελτους πολιτικούς. Και μετά ξύπνησα μέσα σε έναν απέραντο ερειπειώνα. Από τον Παπαδήμο στον Κακλαμάνη και μετά πάλι πίσω στο Μπένυ. Ερείπεια! Filed under: jazz Tagged: music , portico quartet , video
The music speaks for itself. I'm lost for words. My teas gone cold. If you don't watch/enjoy this video here then you hate music and therefore life. Self-titled album out in January, new track 'Ruins' available as a free download and the band are playing for free in Sheffield this Saturday. Could you ask for anything more? Tailor made, silk-lined, Hefneresque smoking jacket you say? Irrelevant. Download new track 'Ruins' for free. Buy Portico Quartet tunes at Juno. Related Posts [...]
If you've never listened to Portico Quartet before, do yourself the favor. My little sister got me hooked on this modern ethnic jazz-fusion quartet after seeing them perform in Paris several years ago. The London-based group brings a level of chilled out intricacy and creativity to their sound that is exciting and refreshingly current. The contemporary combo of soprano saxophone, acoustic bass and drums is taken to new sonic heights through the use [...]
Following on from the other week's Portico Quartet remix by YULT , we now have a new video for the track Ruins , which is lifted from the forthcoming self-titled Portico Quartet album. You can also download the track for FREE by going to the website of Real World Records , their record label. The new album is their third full release and will drop in January 2012. It's the first release to feature new... [read more]
Tweet Since SGTMT discovered SBTRKT 's LP we've been digging around to listen to everything the man's produced. We'd missed this remix of Portico Quartet 's Line which makes us want to dance and is free to download below: There's also a 'More hang' mix, presumably featuring more of the Hang instrument used by the band. It's kind of like a metal drum, though describing it as a drum has apparently led to "a [...]
The internet may have permanently ruined the financial viability of the music industry, but at least it has made bands like EP Island possible. A home recording project featuring singer/guitarist LL Schultz (guitar/vocals) and Melanie Covey (drums), the duo's goal is to write and record an EP in a single weekend. The pair then releases the result on the internet. I recently spoke with Schultz about the origins of the project, as well as the influence of Portico singer Lyn Heinemann, who contributed vocals to the latest EP, Rad'ish . Read the [...]
I have to admit, I can't really ramble on aimlessly about EP Island trying to sell you on the sounds. The output is much more immediate and compact, and even if I could, it would be against everything LL Schultz and Melanie Covey stand for and rely on as a "band." Both woman have spent years in bands, on the road touring and sleeping in shitty hotel rooms or on friend's couches and really, they don't want that anymore. Practice schedules and the pressure to always be playing aren't really big motivators either. [...]
A lot can be said about Portico's second full length album "First Neighbours" but perhaps the most accurate representation from them would be its memorable appeal. The trio from Vancouver has come a long way from 2005's "Shape to Form". That's saying a lot considering how well it was received by the public (myself included). The music is engaging with heavy handed themes and complex syllogisms. Yet, the pop/rock elements of chorus and melody make it very approachable to new listeners as well. First thing you should know is nobody likes to admit that they have a gap [...]
With the first cut-off date for Polaris Long-List nominations approaching, and this being our first time being involved, I thought it would be a lot easier to jot down thoughts and ideas before the deadline, instead of just scanning the list and writing down 5 records on due date. Obviously, we've covered a ton of Canadian releases this year - one or two a day, 5 days a week - but we've missed some quality ones as well. I haven't decided my Top 5 or the order they fall in but right now these are the nine records [...]
die vorzustellende band heißt portico und besteht aus lyn heinemann (guitars + vocals), mimi mahovlich (bass + vocals) und greg murray (drums). sie hat ganz frisch ein album auf dem markt, es heißt "first neighbours" und wurde bei copperspine records herausgebracht. hetz! das wichtigste also vorneweg. einen sehr sympathisch dreinblickenden dreier haben wir da, gell? wenn jetzt auch noch die musike passt, näherten sie sich dem status "etwas lieblingsband?" auf wenige zentimeter. denn ein bißchen wachstum brauchts ja auch.

myspace || web site || label Honestly, I'm not sure how many more terrific Canadian releases can dominate the early days of 2009. I already have three or four records that will contend for "Best-of" status - I've been impressed by Timber Timbre 's transformation, the maturity of Jenn Grant 's newest release, the heights reached by In-Flight Safety and still haven't had enough time to talk about Bruce Peninsula - and it's not even February yet. I guess complaining about too much good [...]
Songs That Might Otherwise Pass You By Blitzen Trapper, " Furr " This is one of those songs that epitomizes the area from which it hails. While I've never been further west than New Mexico, and I've barely touched the world above the Mason-Dixon line, this song calls to mind my impressions of the snowy Northwest: Crisp, untethered, and maybe a little remote, though in the singer's case, the remoteness isn't just a matter of geography: He's wild, untamable. He's a "rattlesnake", and if you "get him, don't [...]
For those of you not from Vancouver, knowing that Portico practices in a tiny space on the downtown East side of Vancouver is probably irrelevant. On the surface, people think of Vancouver and thoughts of the Rockies and tranquil sunsets reflecting late day sun over the Pacific and that we are bubbling over with hippies and environmental activists. And to be fair, to a certain extent we are, but in reality the city is gritty and laced with drug abusers and the homeless. Poverty is a huge problem and slowly over time, the downtrodden have been pushed farther [...]
Copperspine Records is putting out some quality, quality music. Roger Dean Young, Neins Circa and of course, Portico . I actually thought I talked about Portico before, but after a quick scan I realize I didn't. My bad. Wait, is it still cool to say my bad? Portico is a four-piece from Vancovuer, and on their second record they've made some huge strides. Subtle orchestration is added to the energy they were already known for and the result is impressive. Lyn Heinemann's vocals are a perfect mix of sweetness and power, like on my favorite track [...]

Atlantic Beat - Sunshine MusicPortico Quartet still sound like nothing you ever heard before. The Mercury nominated East London based outfit's unique music has expanded to embrace new sonic territories. Drawing on the inspiration of electronica, ambient, classical and dance music as they take their strange, beautiful, cinematic, future music to exciting new vistas where the inspiration of Burial, Mount Kimbie and Flying Lotus rubs shoulders with the textures of Arve Henriksen and Bon Iver and echoes of Steve Reich and Max Richter. But all underpinned by a shared joy in collective music making as the band push their inimitable music into the future. [...]
