I must have been part of the last generation of kids who got to experience a filmstrip during the course of their education. If I were a teacher, I'd be tempted to show one to trip the kids out. But as a grade school tyke in the '70s, few things were more welcome than being in class and having the teacher set up the projector. The anticipation would be palpable. For fifteen or twenty minutes, you had a reprieve from the monotony of the day. Sometimes technical difficulties might result in a delay, taking more time [...]
Two Wings are an " experimental and expansive " folk band based in Glasgow. They are centered around two core members - singer/multi-instrumentalist/v isual artist Hanna Tuulikki and guitarist/singer Ben Reynolds. They come armed with a good chunk of musical history too; Ben was the guitarist in the esteemed Trembling Bells while Hanna had a successful experimental project called Nalle. Two Wings ' line-up is completed by instrument builder and bass guitarist Kenny Wilson, singer Lucy Duncombe and drummer Owen Curtis Williams ( Wood Pigeon, Eagleowl, Rob St John ). The bands new album [...]
Cauzndefc - Wings (prod. Ichiro_) This is firee. Ichiro_ is one of the most underrated producers in the game at the moment - check our previous mentions of him here - and he provides the beat for this dope track; Cauzndefx does it justice. Really nice track this. Cauzndefx: Youtube • Twitter • Facebook • Bandcamp Ichiro_: Website [...]
Tal y como lo hizo hace 4 años, cuando competía por la presidencia de los Estados Unidos, el presidente Barack Obama acaba de publicar un playlist con sus canciones favoritas del momento. La gran diferencia en esta ocasión, aparte de que esta vez está tratando de ser reelegido, es que el playlist se puede escuchar integro en su página de Facebook usando Spotify. El playlist que se armó Obama tiene de todo y para todos. Pasa por No Doubt, Florence and the Machine, Wilco, Arcade Fire y Noah and the Whale, hasta Bruce Springsteen, Aretha [...]
So I already gave you one , two lists of 2011 records worth checking out. I also gave you lists from some of Atlanta's finest musicians and music listeners - Alex , Matt , Richard and Erik . The bowl season is in full swing, the playoffs are almost set and it's that last day of the year, so what do I have left for 2011? Just one more list. These are the records that we discovered, or rediscovered, in 2011 that did not come out in [...]
It's going to be hard throwing a swanky awards bash in this economic climate. The temptation to be showy and flash must be avoided at all costs, while still keeping a sense of dignity. How are the Grammy organisers going with that? Oh, yes. That ugly wrist choker is the official Grammy "timepiece" (implying there's no Grammy cuckoo clock this year) and comes in at just $1,395. As ever, here's the full list of nominations; leap over to get to the chattery bit [...]
Chrome Wings' New Lands LP shows the duo's pop sensibilities refracted through aquatic haze and liquid texture, advancing beyond a lo-fi aesthetic into new terrain defined by marina trenches and echolocation. While not departing from their tradition of creating dense, electronically indebted grooves, on this album Chrome Wings take the listener in a wholly accessible quest for a figurative Lost City. The abstract pattern on the cover harkens the fish-eye POV which refracts the pop sensibilities on New Lands , signifying a proverbial plunge into this trans-dimensional frame of mind and genre. The title track [...]
You might not know his name yet, but Dj Carnage is a motherfucking legend in the making. He's the kind of guy that makes you want to support anything he has a part in. He's the kind of guy that makes you want to speak about him only in extreme hyperbole. During a time when social media rules everything around us, Dj Carnage is in a position to win. He linked up with Theophilus London through Twitter (@ djcarnage ), bringing Theo on board for a Kreayshawn song he produced, and the result was the off-the-wall [...]
West coast transplant Robin Bacior finds a place in the New York music scene with her sleepy melodies and sweet vocals. Listening to Robin Bacior's first full-length album, Rest Our Wings , one can't help but be transported back to a time when Regina Spektor and Fiona Apple (and currently Adele, Diane Birch, and other new artists) found great commercial success with off-beat folk and jazz songwriting, unique structures, and oddly catchy music. The crafty waltz timing (think Fiona's Extraordinary Machine ) and [...]
The bomber jacket has a classic silhouette that we've always loved. Problem is, most bomber jackets don't provide enough warmth to combat the reliably harsh winters we experience in Canada every year. Always the adept problem solvers, Wings + Horns have teamed up with UK specialty label Heritage Research to produce a waxed cotton bomber that's up to the task. Heritage Research did a really great job adding subtle military details to compliment Wings + Horns beautifully simplified utilitarian look. Click the jump to see more images. Available at Need Supply [...]
We've been waiting for this. Next Monday, everyone's favorite label madness AMDISCS drops New Lands on 12 inch, Chrome Wings ' anticipated sophomore effort after last year's remarkable Time Patterns cassette on Stunned Records . The new album is quite a big creative leap forward for the Portland duo, as they've further refined their knack for beautifully textured, swirling and expansive synth pads that leave you happy and stoned even if your default dope vendor had to call in sick. Tracks like "Sky Mirage" or "Stay High" set off towards [...]

DALE CROVER: THE METALSUCKS INTERVIEW
I had to ask about the van. How could I not? The infamous eBay listing cropped up the very same day as my scheduled interview with Dale Crover. After quickly pointing out that the band "got rid of that thing a long time ago" and were in no way involved in this auction, the longtime [...]

Music Review: Denny Seiwell Trio - Reckless Abandon

Wing - Back in Black
Back in Black is one of the most famous songs ever. To make it sound brand new again, that's a remarkable talent. Talent is not something that Wing is often accused of. Born in Hong Kong and living in New Zealand, she started singing in retirement homes despite any natural aptitude for the task. She couldn't hit a note, couldn't carry a tune, and had only the most rudimentary familiarity with rhythm. And despite this, she kept on singing. Here's a frankly unrecognisable version of AC/DC's classic, featuring the twin delights of tinny [...]

Offbeat Holiday Music: Santa in a Helicopter
Wing : Santa in a Helicopter [ purchase ] I wasn't going to post another song this week, but I accidently scrolled through this section of my database and…well… I learned about Wing from popdose.com a few years ago. Wikipedia tells us "Wing is a New Zealand singer of Hong Kong origin. She is known for her unique, offbeat singing style." See? Fits the theme! Wing has released 19 albums to date. After listening to this sample, you too will find this fact [...]
