¿Cuántos discos "tributo a…" han escuchado? Parece un método eficiente el de reunir a muchas bandas, hacer que elijan la canción que más les guste de un grupo y ponerlos a tocar para así grabar un disco que, seguramente se venderá. Tal vez no es el proceso adecuado el [...]

Marcelo Krasilcic The Magnetic Fields are back. But wait, you might argue, they never really went away. Sure, three albums in the past decade doesn't really match the rate of output that Stephin Merritt was maintaining in the '90s - particularly when you take into account his other projects - but it ain't nothing. And yet it's accurate on many levels that The Magnetic Fields are back: they're back on Merge , the label that released their greatest records including the risky and magnificent 69 Love Songs [...]

Tweet The Brooklyn trio started off as a duo (Jeremy & Maria) back in 2006 while attending art school. Later joined by Max and signed by Cascine they released "Ladies Man Effect" EP during Summer 2010. This is a B-side from their full length album "Delusions", that was out in May this year.

Allie Larkin is a blogger and the co-founder of The Greenists . She's also a friend of mine in that sort of odd, social media generation, never actually met her sort of way. More auspiciously, however, her debut novel "STAY" is being released this week by Dutton .

She declared it an ideal beach book, so good timing for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere. [...]

Frank Yang It struck me about mid-way through Basia Bulat's concert at Trinity-St. Paul's on Saturday night that though it was an album release show for her eagerly-anticipated new album in Heart Of My Own , the album wasn't going to be released for another couple of weeks yet - January 26, to be exact - and as such, many/most of the just under 800 people in the sell-out crowd had never heard the new songs. An obvious point, certainly, but one that I had overlooked since I'd been secretly [...]
