It really wasn't all that long ago that Copenhagen's undisputed, if more or less uncontested finest, When Saints Go Machine , quite literally played just across Shoreditch High Street from the newly set Concrete. Then, it was the considerably more sizeable Village Underground ; tonight, by contrast, proves significantly more intimate still. For with the club setting here condensed back down into that of a swanky bar incidentally buried beneath a Pizza East, Nikolaj Manuel Vonsild et al. this evening sport the sort of athletic garb – trainers and tracksuits – which is so traditionally prohibited from these [...]
To improve the mood of your Monday, Kry Wolf posted up their latest track called 'Concrete', to be released later in the year on Sounds of Sumo . The South UK duo / Food Music heads have been putting out solid music, so have a listen below, and keep your head up for what they have to offer in the always near future. KO [...]
Jerzy Kosinski'nin 'Boyalı Kuş" romanını ilk ne zaman okudum hatırlamıyorum. Hatırladığım tek şey, romandan çok etkilendiğim ve romanda anlatılan öteki olmanın dayanılmaz zorluğuydu. Romanda, İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında ailesinden kopan bir Yahudi çocuğun Doğu Avrupa köylerinde oradan oraya sürüklenişine şahit oluyorduk. Sarı saçlı-mavi gözlü insanları arasında bir Yahudi çocuğunun çektiği acılar yürekleri burkuyordu. Kitaba ismini veren 'Boyalı Kuş' kavramı ise romanda geçen bir olayla şöyle anlatılır. Yanına sığındığı köylülerden biri ormanda yakalayıp rengarenk boyadığı kuşları ayrıldıkları sürüye katılmaları için salar. Büyük bir coşkuyla [...]
Along the Oregon coast protrudes a giant, monolith called Haystack Rock. Standing 235-feet tall, it is the easily the most defining item in Cannon Beach, giving the seaside town a short drive south from Astoria its fame. I know the Cannon Beach (and surrounding) area quite well from my childhood, having spent several week-long summer vacations along the northern Oregon coast in the late '80s. Cannon Beach is also the name selected by a minimalist lo-fi folk duo from Scandinavia. Simon Hjortdal (Denmark) provides vocals and writes the [...]
Les Concrete Knives ont publié en novembre dernier leur premier album Be your own king . Comme cela se fit pour leurs compatriotes régionaux de Gablé (signés jusqu'à présent chez Loaf Recordings *) avant eux, c'est un label anglais ( Bella Union ) qui les produit. C'est assez prestigieux, notamment quand le label en question est tenu par un ex Cocteau Twins et qu'on devient ainsi collègue des Flaming Lips. Le groupe a enregistré quasiment seul ce disque (ils l'expliquent dans cette [...]
All creative outpour from The Concretes appears to have all but frozen up indefinitely, which is something of an unnatural catastrophe from the figurative hunk of ice upon which we're sat quivering this afternoon. However here to thaw out that chilly bittersweetness capable of incurring the most penetrative of toothaches are treasureseason , a Scandi/ UK duo formed in San Fran though since relocated to these fair, and today fairly monochromic isles. Bicycle, outed only hours ago, isn't built to trundle across such gloomy terrain however: a luminescent, stargaze-y piece of insouciant innovation, it recalls much of the eponymous [...]
Just before we see the last instalment in the "Hidden Depths" series take over Concrete tomorrow night, Tiger Beer have put together this video with Brackles, Trim and Faze Miyake. They... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

Hier, vendredi 26 octobre, les Concrete Knives = (de gauche à droite autour de la table) Morgane, Nicolas, Adrien, Augustin (qui a snobé mon appareil tout du long) et Guillaume... ont envahi les studios du triple 6 afin de discuter le bout de gras (absent de leur album Be your own king ) et d'y jouer trois morceaux... L'intégralité de l'entrevue et de la session sera écoutable demain dimanche à 17h sur la radio 666 ... On y causera [...]
A trip to the tropics. Secretly Canadian, 2012 7.3/ 10.0 It seems weird to say, but half the Concretes' full length albums have been done now without the charming, guileless, pleasantly flat vocals of Victoria Bergsman, who left the band following their second, highly underrated album, In Colour. Whereas their [...]
Slo-fidelity well worth huddling in with, is this from CUBS . ANTHRA is a sublime, yet with it remarkably subtle hair-tingler seemingly derived from the gelid warmths once emitted by The Concretes on the Stockholm swedehearts' eponymous LP of '03. Unfathomably, however, ANTHRA wasn't conceived upon a sled carving rimy tracks across the Arctic but was born of London. For CUBS is Amber Bain, and by the seems of it she's already beginning to burgeon, numbing the fingers, heads and hearts of they that feed the Hype Machine with scrumptious RSS. Refreshing as a lungful of iced oxygen, it [...]
As the Summer has officially ended on at least the east coast of the U.S. that doesn't mean that you can't cling onto the lazy sun-filled days of the last few months. If you're looking to cling then Taken By Trees has the perfect new best friend for you. Their third album after ex- Concretes singer Victoria Bergsman left the band to work on Taken By Trees, has been a couple of months in the running after they dropped "Dreams" [...]
Eliot Hazel It feels a bit anticlimactic to try and sit down and formally review Instinct , the debut album from Sweden's Niki & The Dove , and the reasons for this are many. Besides the fact that I've been talking about them since last August and already seen them twice at Iceland Airwaves and again at SXSW over the past year, there's the fact that though it's only formally out in North America this week, Instinct was released in Europe and the UK [...]
Posted in General Clickable http://www.youtube.com/watch?v =JKHZcQF9g1g I've been a fan of Victoria Bergsman since seeing and hearing her fronting The Concretes many, many moons ago in Edinburgh. I immediately fell for her heartfelt, almost world weary delivery. Now she's wood not concrete, Taken By Trees, but the sound is still the same. Here's a great example, new song Dreams taken from [...]
Personally I feel like there are far more pressing things to direct my fury towards, such as the impending doom of being submerged under the completely unavoidable marketing campaign known as the Olympics, but many people seem to feel like Adele is an ever present evil that must be dealt with. For these people – here is one more reason to irrationally dislike a person that you’ve never met. Dante is Swedish. This, of course, means that he was born to construct pop songs of the sort of simplicity and originality that most other people [...]
Bir gün evi düzenlerken fark ettim. Bir de baktım ki, benden çok Yaman''ın eşyaları var. Küçük küçük poşetlerle sızmıştı. Aşk bir sızma halidir. Yaman o kadar temiz bir adamdı ki ona kızamazdınız. Bir o kadar da yiğitti. Ben derdim ki; b u adam ne zaman yorulacak! Meğer acelesi varmış. Herşeyi o kadar yoğun, hızlı ve coşkulu yaşıyor ve yaşatıyordu ki büyüleyici bir şeydi bu. Ben köşeleri çok olan bir insandım. Yaman beni eğitti... Aşk kendinden vazgeçme halidir, kendi benliğini ezmeden ''biz'' olabilme [...]
Some crazy beats from one of the coolest guys under the... err, sun. 7even Sun cooks up the French niceness, a real eclectic range of instrumentals for this album Abscrete, from electronic to straight groove funk, from a mix of ingredients of synths and finely chopped samples. He's been building up to this with a couple of previous free releases, a crescendo to this climax. It doesn't disappoint. STREAM/BUY 'Abscrete' FROM BANDCAMP HERE And why not go check out his previous stuff too [...]
