I don't have many more things to add to my Allen Stone eulogy, as everything I needed to say as been written in a previous post (if you missed it, here's your second chance ). Anyway, I'm more than happy to be able to officially announce that this extremely talented folk, who represents the epitome of Soul Music for the new generation, will be in town, for his first ever live performance here in Paris, on April 1st. If you happen to be arround, this is surely something you don't want to miss. [...]
Qu'on se le dise, quand Madonna décide d'amorcer son retour musical, l'icône de la Pop internationale ne fait pas dans le demi mesure. Quelques apparitions dans des talk shows américains triés sur le volet, très vite suivies d'un single (une production girly à souhait et extrêmement addictive signée par le DJ parisien Martin Solveig ) et d'un clip (réalisé par le collectif français Megaforce ). Dévoilé aux yeux du monde vendredi dernier, il totalise d'ailleurs déjà plus de 10 millions de vues sur Youtube. Tout ceci avant l'apothéose qu'une partie de la [...]

![[I] Softly, We Go.. – Evenings](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3947952_lg.jpg)
With the rest of the album's tracks being mainly three minutes or shorter, [I] Softly, We Go.. stands out with eight enchanting minutes of ambience, smooth drones and laid-back improvisational percussion.

Turntable Kitchen's December Mix isn't our usual mix. Instead of a heavy focus on new music, I highlight some of my favorite tracks from the past year. Unlike last year though, I didn't focus on digital-only tracks, but instead highlight some of my favorite tracks released during the year regardless of the format it was originally released in. I hope this will help keep your holiday travels jolly and bright. Turntable Kitchen :: The December 2011 Mix ( .zip file )(on Spotify ) 01. I Break Horses - Winter Beats [...]

C'est quelque chose que nous devrions faire plus souvent, que nous avons en tout cas décidé de faire régulièrement : projeter nos films sur un grand écran, pour des vrais gens assis dans de bons fauteuil. Pour la deuxième fois cette saison, la Blogothèque s'invite donc chez Commune Image, pour une séance de projos exclusives. Cela se passera mercredi prochain, le 14 décembre, à St-Ouen. Dans une vraie salle de cinéma de 169 places, nous vous montrerons des films qui méritent d'être montrés en grand, mais aussi des inédits, parmi lesquels le [...]

Sur son incontournable blog, Mr Dumez écrivait il y a quelques jours que « Nils Frahm, aux Instants Chavirés, çà se bousculait moins qu'à Lana Del Rey. […] Pourtant, c'était peut-être le concert de l'année « . Parce qu'on partage le même point de vue, parce que ses deux albums récents (le dépouillé Felt et le plus éclectique 7Fingers avec Anne Müller) sont parmi les plus beaux de l'année, parce qu'un plus ancien avait fait chavirer l'ami Garrincha , parce qu'en quelques notes de piano [...]
Après une nouvelle longue période de hiatus (il faut dire qu'une actualité musicale relativement peu engageante ces derniers mois n'était pas de nature à me pousser à reprendre le clavier), j'effectue donc mon grand retour dans le blog game en ce Dimanche. Si vous êtes adeptes de mode et de tendances en général, et de celles qui touchent à l'univers urbain en particulier, vous n'êtes pas sans savoir que le producteur Swizz Beatz s'est associé cette année à la marque Reebok. Tout d'abord en lançant en Février ce que l'on nomme communément dans le jargon sa [...]

A very short week with the holidays coming, so we'll be quick as well. Death Cab for Cutie has remixes, Kate Bush is describing snow and Sea Lion is going back to their roots. We have heard various DCFC remixes since Codes & Keys came out, and this should at the least be interesting. We're still not sure what the best remix is of their music, so lend us your comments. Kate Bush settles any nerves for us with her 50 Words for Snow album. Shoegaze for the season. [...]

Artwork by: Sougwen Chung [RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] "Play Pencil Pimp !!" is what I kept yelling at the recent Sepalcure show in NYC, today they got Pitchfork's Best New Music on their debut Self Titled album, we've supported their sound from the beginning, I couldn't be happier for them, you can buy their LP here . HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Usually when you say Jose Gonzalez a girl in the room will scream and say "OMG I love him!" I do [...]
The Evens, 'Warble Factor' Hardcore/post-hardcore pioneer Ian MacKaye and Amy Farina return this month as the Evens, following up their 2006 LP, Get Evens , with a new single and news of an LP in the works for 2012. Picking up in remarkably familiar territory from where they left off, "Warble Factor" b/w "Timothy Wright" finds the bare-bones duo settling into their tight, trademark exercise in indignant restraint, complete with a few rousing harmonies. Today, Dischord shared a stream of the A-side ahead of the 7"/digital release . Hear it above.
In the middle of the last decade, the former Teen Idles/Minor Threat/Skewbald/Embrace/Egg Hunt/Fugazi frontman Ian MacKaye got together with former Warmers drummer Amy Farina to form a duo called the Evens. Together, they released two criminally underrated albums. Their style was basically the classic Dischord post-hardcore style, slowed down and muted and sweetened with some truly gorgeous harmonies. For perfectly understandable reasons, they took a break for a few years after releasing 20062s Get Evens . (They had a kid together.) And now they're back with a new single, "Warble Factor" b/w "Timothy Wright," which gloriously [...]
