Here's some music for you to chew on... something from Austin, Brooklyn, Toronto, Detroit, and Fresno. First up is a free download from Austin TX band, The Boxing Lesson called "Mirrors". This is a slower paced track than the other three found on their myspace page and it's the one I like more than the others. mirrors [myspace mp3] + + + + + [...]

Honestly, I know nothing about the MP3 you are going to hear, and I don't even know whether it has anything to do with ventriloquism. It might as well be piece of conceptual art, or the recording of a guy talking to a cow named "Bill" (or maybe "Bail"?). The only thing that is absolutely clear is that it is the "First Lesson" from a longer work (30, 15, or 20 minutes, according to the artist/instructor). Learn "grunting" (or "grinding"?) and judge for yourself: Throw Your Voice (MP3)

There are few people towards we feel respect and love like a mother. Today myself along with Srividya , presenting a song sung by such a loving and gem of a personlity Smt S Janaki and Shri.Unnikrishnan . S.Janaki , is being affectionately called as 'Melody Queen' . Famous music director T. Chalapati Rao gave Janaki her first break in the Tamil film 'Vidhiyin Vilayattu' in 1957. Later on, she got a chance in Telugu film MLA. Since then there has been no looking back for her. Apart from being [...]

I'm really excited about these three groups. I just found Bedroom Eyes at the excellent Swedish music blog Absolut Noise. (Yeh, yeh, I use that "excellent" when propping, but, hey, these are my favorite blogs, dig). Hop on over there to hear other Bedroom Eyes songs and link to BE's MySpace site. I'm not sure where I found Angelinos The Tyde, but when I do, I'll give props. [Imagine, if you will,

Fifty years ago today, the Red army invaded Hungary and put an end to its attempted democratic Revolution , with Soviet troops who had been told they were going to Berlin to fight fascists. The moderate Communist government, whose reformism had gained popular support, was toppled in favour of a regime more favourable to the Soviet Union, which had yet to distance itself fully from its Stalinist past. The event proved a watershed in the political image of the USSR, with many Western Marxists turning away from its foreign policy after its second invasion in three years. [...]

If you weren't aware already, Austin, TX has quite the booming music scene. Between the Austin City Limits music festival and SXSW, it's no wonder that so many people view that city as sort of a new "mecca" for the latest and greatest up-and-coming musicians. This week's edition of SIGN THIS BAND profiles the music of a band known as She, Sir. I'm still trying to grasp some sort of meaning behind that band name, because I don't really "get it." But I guess that's really neither here nor there. Let's talk about the music, which is surprisingly unique. That [...]
My friend Christina made me this crazy hot mixtape the summer of '86, and I forgot all about it until this month when I came across it in the basement. Check out that track list! Christina was killin' it! Ever since I found this treasure, I've had that delicious little "Throwdown" stuck up in my dome. With all those bouncy, cheesy keyboards and crazy freestyle vocals, it might be permanently wedged in there. So, of course, I need to find the record. Problem is, I have no idea [...]

aus heimat- und sachkundeunterricht oder später erdkunde hinlänglich bekannt: die taiga ist diese große vegetationszone auf der nordhalbkugel mit nadelbäumen und permafrostboden, der im sommer gerne sumpfig wird. insgesamt ist das image der taiga nicht so doll: monoton, uninteressant, mückenverseucht, ökologisch weniger wertvoll und riesig in der ausbreitung. stimmt aber anscheinend gar nicht, die biodiversität wird unterschätzt. dieses recht exklusive wissen besitzen fantastico pirato, lady j und dusty gold von taigaa! , sie hätten sich kaum nach einem öden landstrich benannt. Die musik ist wild, unberechenbar, mit rezitativem gesang, der von wunderschönen, melancholischen melodiefetzen der [...]
