The fine fellas of Flatland Funk (say it 3 times fast) sent us over this dirty little promo of their upcoming release with Filthy Rehab - The Boodang Bounce . The tune pays homage to Boodang Events , a company that has western Canada on lock for the hottest parties and biggest events (check out boodang.com for more info). Fittingly The Boodang Bounce is an in your face, bass heavy club banger that will get anybody with a pulse and a set of ears reaching for the sky. Find out [...]

The traditional country stars — Conway Twitty, George Jones, Tammy Wynette Charlie Rich, Dolly Parton, Charley Pride — were still selling many records in the 1970s, and periodically crossed over to the pop charts. Singers like Donna Fargo evoked the good old days with happy songs like The Happiest Girl In The Whole USA. These were still the Opry years — in fact, in 1972 the Grand Ole Opry opened a theme park called Opryland, and wo years later moved out of its long-time home, the Ryman Theatre, to Opryland. But the Nashville scene no longer monopolised country, [...]

Music for music's sake. This is the message behind the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival , one of San Francisco's most anticipated musical events of the year. Funded by 77-year-old investment banker and music fanatic Warren Hellman, the event is free for the public and usually boasts around 750,000 people in attendance. This year was no different. With one of the most decorated and diverse lineups in the festival's history, including performances by Robert Plant and the Band of Joy , Bright Eyes , Broken Social Scene , and DeVotchka , this three-day assemblage [...]

In the new video from California's fearsome (if not amorphous) rap troupe Death Grips , we're treated to more of the assaulting, crusty VHS vibe they've been throwing at us lately. Here it's for "Known For It", a bookending track off their recent LP, Exmilitary . Some aggressive, suffocating live shots flash by, featuring MC Ride, Zach Hill's signature thrash, and what appears to be a deck set up for Flatlander, the group's producer. Is it just me or are these guys rolling out these little bits at just the right pace?
We've been watching the proliferation of music festivals in Florida over the last few years with great interest and this morning a new player has emerged in the form of the inaugural Orlando Calling festival. Produced by Festival Republic, who organize the Reading and Leeds festivals in the U.K., Orlando Calling features a genre-defying lineup that should appeal to a wide range of music fans. The event will take place at the large Citrus Bowl football stadium in Orlando on November 12 -13. Saturday (November 12) and Sunday's [...]

I, the keeper of the mountain You, the morning flower ++++++ MP3: The Flatlanders - Keeper Of The Mountain
By Aaron Dubanevich I am not a writer. I'm descended from a writer, but it's not something I aspire to. I'm writing this out of desperation, hoping that putting it on paper will make it easier to put it away. There will be times when I skip details, or I don't remember exactly what someone said or precise sequences of events, but that doesn't matter. The important parts are already in the historical record. I guess you could call this a confession, though I'm not sure what I'm confessing. No philosophical preamble, no foreshadowing. I'll just start where it started: [...]

So erm, does not having a traditional working week mean Friday is a bit less Friday-y now? Kinda, I guess. I have been deprived of my much-cherished King's Wark lunches by the fact that I am on the other side of town now (well, not quite, but far enough away to make it impractical) and nowadays if I have two pints at lunch and then skive away the afternoon I am basically just ripping myself off. Which rather makes it less fun, I have to confess. Mind you, it's sunny as arse out there, so the sooner I [...]

On peut dire que ça ne chôme pas avec les Sound of Stereo , après Zipper sorti fin novembre, on a le droit à Flatland en ce début de mois d'avril. Même procédé, trois tracks, même esprit visuel, on va droit au but avec eux, la seule différence c'est que cette fois-ci c'est chez Dim Mak que l'EP est signé. Comme toujours avec eux, la qualité est au rendez-vous. Sound Of Stereo - Flatland > Acheter l'EP < [...]

"I´m glad to see you coming, I´m glad to see you go... She once told me I´m glad to see you coming, I'm glad to see you go..." Treat Me Like A Saturday Night was penned by Jimmie Dale Gilmore, but his old Flatlanders pal Joe Ely recorded it first, for his excellent ´77 debut. For some reason, Gilmore waited until ´91 to tape a version for his fine After Awhile album. Both versions do it for me, although I have a slight preference for [...]
