A big part of Texas music history went dark this past weekend, when Sundance Records went out of buisness after 35 years. But thanks to the San Marcos record store's strong Houston connection, p... Continue reading "Sig's Lagoon Keeping Sundance, Beloved San Marcos Store, Alive" >
Ladies and gentlemen, number 29 comes with some bonus tracks. Five complete different tracks by Crumps, Sundance, Etnik , Elite Force and Tony Senghore . And four remixes from the " Das Glow - Concrete" remix competition. Big big package. Hope you'll enjoy it. Crumps - Basketball Another newcomer from Australian (Perth) called Crumps delivers a really cool acid/techno track. You will love it! Chemical Brothers vs Miles Dyson - Swoon Anthem (Elite Force RVMPD) I guess Elite Force will give [...]
Hey there Some of you might have heard the Sundance track I posted on out facebook page . SUNDANCE - Pasadena [click to download] | HTML5 | We talked about these two french guys for their Revolte remix . Their influences are mainly electro, blues and rock, this explains the amazing [...]
Paleman - Sun Dance Manchester producer PALEMAN has apparently spent the entire weekend listening to the new Burial EP, but I've had to put that work on hold, such is my complete and severe addiction to ' Sun Dance ', Calum Lee's latest track. A jazz influence exists within this guy's work, but its scarcely applied on this occasion, with sharp, stinging beats taking centre stage, atop a grizzly combination of industrial synths and tick-tick percussion. A suitably excitable way to start the week. [...]
Paleman Manchester producer Palemans' tracks hinge predominantly on skeletal 4/4 stomps, used as a fluid palette on which to mount shifting rhythmic layers of daintily metallic percussion and club-ready, icy techno stabs. The result, such as on Sun Dance, is both magnetically groove-laden and ambiguously pensive. Look out for a debut 12" on startup Manchester electronic label Fulcrum , which, judging by their tantalizingly eclectic and smoothly crafted inaugural mix , will be a label to keep an eye out for this year. [...]
Los Angeles Times -- PARK CITY, Utah - Rock stars tend to exit the public stage in one of two ways: with a burst of drama or by fading away on sad-sack tours. James Murphy, the elusive frontman of the indie-rock band LCD Soundsystem, tried a third way: retiring on top. In February 2011, with the band's internal dynamics smooth and commercial fortune smiling upon it, Murphy, for seemingly no good reason, announced that he was breaking up the...
Rick Alverson es el director encargado de exponer la realidad utópica que vive en la mente de los estadounidenses, y quién mejor que James Murphy para retratar este estilo de vida ya tan arraigado en la cultura de los gringos. The Comedy, de Alverson , es la película en la que el vocalista de LCD Soundsystem hará su debut en un largometraje, y a continuación les compartimos el primer preview de la película, que es prácticamente un clip de dos minutos en el [...]
Photo Credits: Getty Images for T-Mobile If you follow me on Twitter , or have been frequently checking the site , then you may have caught wind that FSD was in Park City, Utah for the Sundance Film Festival. We were guests of T-Mobile and Google Music, and attended their T-Mobile Presents Google Music party at TAO (which was in a parking garage converted into a night club-pretty cool) throughout our stay. I'll be doing a more in-depth piece on T-Mobile, Google Music and my involvement, but for now, take a [...]
Aziz Ansari is obsessed with becoming the #1 comic in the world, and it seems like he believes the best way to achieve 'trill swag' status is by bronoodling with rappers. His bromance with LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy has been 'well-documented' [ link ], but his relationship with Kanye West and Jay-Z has helped his career even more. Basically, he is doing the 'zany comic relief' in swag videos that people like Chris Tucker used 2 do. I guess it's probably what Chris Rock would've had to be doing if he was [...]
Yesterday, Common premiered his new movie LUV at Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, and following the screening and private dinner, Com hosted a premiere party at Sugar's on Main Street. With Twilite Tone on the ones and twos, Common ran through his extensive catalog, and here we have him performing "Blue Sky" and a quick freestyle for the crowd. Be sure to check out LUV when it gets its national release. Luckily, Drake didn't show up , as he had a party across the street.
In the Q&A after the screening I asked the director why he wanted to tell this story (because it's a dark one that really doesn't have much meaning). The 'meaning' is supposed to be that the protagonist crosses a boundary (by roughing up his last girlfriend, which we learn via her letter to him) and is then unable to get back to the more innocent person he was before. This ends in a slippery slope of increasingly poor decisions. Except, it really doesn't. He's violent. It sounds like he was always violent. In the [...]
Tracy Morgan has been hospitalized at Park City Medical Center after collapsing following accepting an award at the Sundance Film Festival . Morgan was attending the Creative Coalition Spotlight Awards last night. After giving a speech during which sources say he seemed intoxicated, Tracy was escorted outside and collapsed. With a history as a diabetic, his reps have stated that the collapse was due to the altitude rather than any intoxication. A notorious wild card, you never know with Tracy. He was at Sundance promoting his new film Predisposed , co-starring Jesse Eisenberg and [...]
Lots of good music hit your television screen since Friday night in case you missed out while hitting the sauce hard over the weekend. Cults made their victory lap on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon (video via the Audio Perv ). Los Campesinos will be making their way to Denver at the end of the month with a gig at the Bluebird Theater, but played Letterman Friday night. Joanna Newsom took to Austin City Limits with her harp and angelic voice for a night in the Sherwood Forrest with a split episode with the princes [...]
Muchos eran los que se sorprendían (y aquí me incluyo yo) cuando en diciembre saltaba la información de que LCD Soundsystem iban a ser uno de los protagonistas del festival de cine Sundance 2012, una edición que recogía un metraje en el que se relataban las últimas 48 horas del grupo, y más concretamente de su cantante, James Murphy. Poco se sabía del mismo, salvo que iba a llevar por nombre Shut Up And Play The Hits , e iba a estar dirigido por Dylan Southern, más conocido en el mundo [...]
Earlier today, Pulse Films premiered their trailer for Shut Up And Play The Hits , a documentary surrounding the final days of LCD Soundsystem , whose final show was April of last year. It's somewhat due for the group, who didn't slump through the late-career doldrums and finished on top of their game, maybe a little too soon for those that really appreciated them. The film will premiere at this year's Sundance Film Festival . Watch the trailer below.
It's been over one year since LCD Soundsystem played their Denver show at the Fillmore Auditorium with Hot Chip. After witnessing hundreds and hundreds of shows, I can easily state without hesitation that one October night was one of the ones I'll cherish forever. At the time there was speculation that it was the last tour/album that they'd be doing, and here we are, lamenting the loss of one of music's best talents. "Shut Up and Play the Hits" is the documentary that tells the final tale and will see the light of day at [...]
On April 2nd 2011 LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden. LCD frontman James Murphy had made the conscious decision to disband one of the most celebrated and influential bands of its generation at the peak of its popularity, ensuring that the band would go out on top with the biggest and most ambitious concert of its career. The instantly sold out near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy...
I never thought I'd love a movie starring an Olsen sister. But then, until this year, I thought Mary-Kate and Ashley were the only ones. Neither of them appears in Martha Marcy May Marlene , last January's Sundance favorite for which the younger Olsen sister, Elizabeth, 22, has deservedly collected Oscar buzz over the course of the last 12 months. I wouldn't be surprised if the film, which is Olsen's debut, ends up being one of my five favorite movies of 2011. I must admit, when I put the screener into the DVD player, I wasn't [...]
Según podemos leer en la web del festival de cine Sundance, LCD Soundsystem será uno de los protagonistas del evento de 2012. Se proyectará un documental que relatará las últimas 48 horas del grupo, centrándose en la figura del cantante James Murphy . Así, se reflejarán los instantes previos al último concierto de la banda en el Madison Square Garden el pasado 2 de abril (que puede verse en YouTube ), los momentos posteriores y el anunciamiento oficial del final de "uno de los grupos con mejor directo del mundo", como refleja la descripción [...]
