The outstanding, early Pink Floyd-inspired debut album of Jacco Gardner is easily the best album of 2013, even this early out in the year. Gardner is like a lighthouse beacon in a fog of mediocrity of pop music. The timeless music Gardner creates here might be tagged as retro, but that's only by people who get hung up instead of [...]
White Fence: Cyclops Reap — Originally intended to be a selection of unreleased White Fence backlog, Cyclops Reap is the product of revisiting the old in order to create the new. Tim Presley of White Fence cranks out recordings faster than one can keep track. Like his psych comrades Ty Segall and John Dwyer (of Thee Oh Sees ), he’s a little hard to keep up with. There’s been a handful of White Fence LP’s released in only a few years time, not to mention a collaborative [...]
Youth Lagoon's debut album The Year of Hibernation was a gorgeous piece of work highlighted by the epic " Montana ," a quiet dirge-like song that propelled the album to numerous critical accolades and top ten lists. It was a daring piece of work, with singer, songwriter, and one-man band Trevor Powers opening up about mental illness amidst a stream of quiet minimalism. Its follow-up, Wondrous Bughouse , is a nice try at an expansion of his sound. But, it falls into a trap of extending so far beyond [...]
Jacco Gardner is a 24 year old musical genius from Zwaag in the Netherlands. I know, I know, I've used the 'G' word. But stick with me. I've just listened to his newly released debut album, Cabinet of Curiosities (which came out last week) and it's blown my mind. It's been awhile since I've truly felt like I've time traveled whilst listening to an album, But Cabinet of Curiosities did just that. The album's songs have an air of Syd [...]
>> One marvel of the modern age is the speed at which technology continually reinvents ways for artists to conceive, collaborate and record music together. Case in point: Boston's new dream-pop concern, Winter . The band's terrific new EP Daydreaming is a collaboration between Infinity Girl fronter Nolan Eley and singer and songwriter Samira Winter .

>> Birmingham, England-based indie punk heroes Calories resurfaced last week with the blistering tune "Summer's Not," a non-album freebie and precursor to the act's planned third full-length. No release date or title for the forthcoming long-player have been revealed as of yet. Interestingly, the band's Facebook page (which lists Calories ' interests as "swimming | minimalism") states that Dominique James -- formerly of Sunset Cinema Club and most recently best known as the engineer/producer of a number of Johnny Foreigner recordings -- is now a member of Calories, swelling its personnel [...]
tornano i Field Music - dopo l’album Plumb , uscito a Febbraio - con una raccolta di cover, che verrà pubblicata da Memphis Industries il prossimo 15 ottobre. anticipiamo qui i primi tre brani degli otto in scaletta - Terrapin di Syd Barrett, Born Again Cretin di Robert Wyatt, e Heart dei Pet Shop Boys:
Filed under: News , Movies , Q + A Getty Images Wish You Were Here , released in September 1975, was Pink Floyd 's follow-up album to the globally successful The Dark Side of the Moon and is cited by many fans, as well as band members Richard Wright and David Gilmour , as their favorite Pink Floyd album. On release it went straight to No. 1 in both the U.K. [...]
Le session per completare "Wish you were here", nono lavoro in studio dei Pink Floyd furono numerose e sfiancanti. La band iniziò a scrivere i brani già nel 1974: Roger Waters aveva in mente un concept-album in cui avrebbe parlato dell'assenza, quella provata nei confronti degli altri membri del gruppo e - soprattutto - per Syd Barrett , che li aveva già abbandonati da anni. Il caso volle che lo stesso Barrett si presentò in studio proprio il 5 settembre del 1975, giorno in cui i Pink Floyd stavano ultimando la [...]
I read an interview with Electricity In Our Homes where they said that they were influenced by early Postcard records by Orange Juice and Joseph K . On side two of their new album Dear Shareholder which came out a few weeks ago on Fierce Panda, the song Nothing, If Not Lovely starts off with what sounds like a riff lifted from OJ, but then goes all wonky and ends up in some dissonant plane. That, in a nutshell (sorry) is Electricity In Our Homes. There are songs like Oranges with a rattling riff and unforgettable [...]
ALBUM REVIEW: M. Ward is americana really. He chose to criss-cross our nation and record A Wasteland Companion with 8 different engineers and 18 musicians from Steve Shelley on percussion and Bright Eyes’ Mike Mogis on organ to drop a couple names. The music here is diversely as R&Bish as it a country with a nod to some of things you may not admit you like from 702s music. In particular on songs like "Sweetheart" that almost sounds a little like ABBA moved down to Texarcana. Then there is the very pretty japinated video [...]

The madcap laughed. But when did the laughter find no escape? The old parable about burning out before fading away found Syd Barrett with a foot in both camps. The legend lived on, ever brighter; but the man himself diminished. What could have been going through his mind? Bitterness at being pushed out of one of the biggest bands in the world? Or relief at becoming only a footnote? We're all on thin ice, indeed. Nobody knows where you are, How near or how far. [...]

The Songs We Love
The Songs We LovePara los que ya hemos asistido alguna vez a un concierto de The Flaming Lips, la puesta en escena de Wayne Coyne y su banda sigue siendo un espectáculo enormemente disfrutable, pero en el que el efecto sorpresa se ha desvanecido: cada vez son menos los que no han presenciado ese despliegue de disfraces, artillería pesada (para lanzar confetti), cantantes atrapados dentro de burbujas de plástico y globos gigantes que acompañan al rock psicodélico que tan bien practican los de Oklahoma. De modo análogo, parece como si con las últimas publicaciones de la banda se hubiera desinflado el interés (y [...]

Hablaremos de las mil y una referencias que nos vienen a la cabeza al escuchar esa maravilla llamada " Cabinet of Curiosities ", publicada por el sello americano Trouble In Mind, y recordaremos que curiosamente fue uno cántabro (Action Weekend) el primero en animarse con la publicación de su primer 73.

SURFING ON STEAMFrom 2008 comes Belong ’s cover of Syd Barrett’s “Late Night” (this is actually the Cleaners From Venus version that they’re modeling), taken from the now out-of-print St. Ives release, Colorloss Record . In a truly drone-heavy and hopelessly dense wall of beauty the original sounds almost lifeless in comparison. You can’t blame the band. Turk Dietrich and Michael Jones are responsible for some of the past decade’s most powerful and engrossing music: 2006’s October Language and 2010’s massive pop/drone follow-up, [...]

Plain Or Pan?
Plain Or Pan?Field Music are a real enigma. Nominees for this year's Mercury Music Prize, like most who appear on the list they occupy a strange place somewhere between cult band and the mainstream. A hotchpotch of clanging riffs with prog leanings, their music isn't all that original. Their music isn't all that groundbreaking either. Plenty of other artists have used similar instruments to similar effect. And their music, like plenty of artists before them, is not that well-known outwith those in the know (think this generation's XTC). But their music is colossal. And tuneful. And therefore radio-friendly. And by rights they should [...]

Ivy League SpinsI think you know the drill by now. Monday = another playlist. The keenest eyed and sharpest memory'd listener will notice that this is the first Melancholy Monday featuring an artist who already showed up in an earlier playlist (strictly speaking, so, for example, I'm not counting "Wilco" and "Billy Bragg & Wilco" as the same artist), so the first person to figure out who that artist is will be roundly mocked for not having a life.
