MAP, eller Music Alliance Pact, er et samarbeid mellom 35 blogger fra hvert sitt land rundt omkring i verden. Det fungerer sånn at alle representantene hver måned velger ut et band og en låt fra sitt eget land, og alt sammen samles opp og postes hos alle. Vi har vært fraværende i to måneder, men nå er vi tilbake og vårt bidrag denne måneden er Mikhael Paskalev med låta "I Spy". Klikk her for å laste ned alle 36 sangene i en fil [...]

РОССИЯ : Big Echo Synecdoche Montauk - Infinitely Many Primes В этом месяце международный сборник Music Alliance Pact вышел совсем разносторонним – шугейз, фолк, поп-музыка, танцевальная электроника и метал. Особенно выделю композиции Juan Cirerol, Pearl and the Puppets, Your Hand in Mine, Mikhael Paskalev и, конечно, русскую команду Synecdoche Montauk, чьё «Бесконечное Множество Простых Чисел» - лучшая русская композиция, которая попала ко мне в руки в прошлом месяце. Ребята работают [...]

I've been trying to get a Pearl And The Puppets song on MAP since January, but the politics involved in obtaining permission to share a track by an artist signed to a major label meant my request went unresolved for most of the year. While getting dropped by Universal Republic/Island Records this summer was obviously a bummer for Katie Sutherland, the good news is that it has allowed me to let you hear and exclusively download this recording of Little Diamonds, which she self-financed.

Este mês temos uma banda repetente, no Music Alliance Pact, a representar o nosso país. O sexteto lisboeta Iconoclasts já tinham passado por aqui em 2009 , mas como não queriamos deixar passar despercebidamente o lançamento do seu primeiro álbum, "Mt Erikson", que estará disponível fisicamente no dia 19 deste mês, temos a honra de vos apresentar aqui a possibilidade de descarregarem gratuitamente o energético "Stranger in A Strange Land". Esta música já tem um vídeo, realizado por Nuno Neves, que poderão ver já abaixo. Para fazer o [...]

SINGAPORE : I'm Waking Up To... Hanging Up The Moon - Water Under The Bridge Hanging Up The Moon is the self-titled debut album and solo project of Sean Lam, best known for fronting Singaporean band Concave Scream. After an extended hiatus, Sean's return to songwriting has been welcomed by many, especially for his minimalist and introspective approach. The songs in this album, which you can pay as you wish for at his [...]
That award-winning photograph you see above was taken with my bare hands, and is the reason for the lack of posts to the site lately. It's from a little place I like to call The Island, way up in northern Maine. No television, no internet, just straight natural beauty. I've been spending one week on The Island all 23 years of my life, and while the wheels of the world turn and things endlessly change, there's a constant magic about this place; because everything stays exactly the same. Every single year you're treated to the same, absolutely striking sunset that [...]

The extended version of this is arguably my favorite song of all time, and you'll have to dig way back in The Chuckness archives to become acquainted. Throughout college I would toss this on before crashing for the night, and I'd have personal battles to make it through all 8:18 before completely passing out. Before trying it yourself, I'll just go ahead and politely tell you that it's 100% not possible to stay awake through the entire song. It's straight musical Valium. It goes without saying that I was extremely excited to come across this different [...]
