' Good As Gold ' is the kaleidoscopic second album from six-piece Swedish shape-shifters Petter & The Pix . It will land in the UK on 3 May, 2010 via Gung-Ho! Recordings, following the release of single "Never Never" on 26 April. 'Good As Gold' is a sonically and emotionally layered album, only revealing itself after repeated listens. It was recorded in live takes over just two days, and then assembled over a painstaking twelve month period. As a songwriter, Petter repeatedly roams round various genres, scoping [...]
Well, we don't usually do this, but seeing as how Van Dyke Parks is a living legend and his Portland show is at Mississippi Studios on Wednesday (inconveniently, the same day WW comes out), we decided to run an extended Q&A with him a couple days before the article hit the racks. Enjoy! -Ed. Van Dyke Parks plays Portland Wednesday. Immediately tweet the following peeps: 1) Beach Boys/Brian Wilson obsessives, 2) students of rock history and 3) anyone interested in the intersection of popular and classical music. Talk about a rare opportunity: Though Parks [...]

Painting by Brian Cooper [ Tirk ] ( buy CD ) ( buy mp3s ) There's something about the name Greg Wilson that tends to inspire awe in even the most hardened of musos: His legendary turns DJing and creating re-edits from reel to reel tapes through to spreading the sounds of electro-funk throughout Manchester via his 1983 residency at The Haçienda. That's combined with his abandonment of DJing at his pinnacle to concentrate on producing the likes of the [...]
AS WE GET OLDER dreams of stardom inevitably slip away - who wants to be stomping round a stage at an age when a nice snooze holds more appeal than a line of cocaine? But what about management? How hard can that be? Surely you can just look at the fictional likes of Spinal Tap's Ian Faith and Flight Of The Conchords' Murray Hewitt and do the exact opposite and thus guarantee success. But in fact, things can go very wrong indeed, as these case studies show. 1. Brian Epstein The [...]
Gorillaz took the spirit of Kraftwerk (and the voices of Bobby Womack and Mos Def) to the disco on " Stylo ," and now the band's animated bassist Murdoc is offering little snippets of Plastic Beach via a "pirate radio" session for AOL . Between songs from the likes of Brian Wilson and DJ patter, Murdoc revealed a bit of an appropriately beachy song he titled "Pink Stinkfish," before backing off that track title. Which would make sense, because there is no "Pink Stinkfish" listed on its tracklist. Whatever it's called, the vocal [...]
When The Besnard Lakes first crossed our radar back in 2007, it seemed like the hip thing to do in indie rock was to sound like a drugged out version of The Beach Boys. Bands like Panda Bear did it and when folks got their first listen to The Besnard Lakes, they lumped their sound in with Panda Bear and other groups of the moment who discoved their parents old Beach Boys albums and added a dark veil to the approach. And sure, the harmonies are really a nod to Brian Wilson and the sound [...]

Wow, just when we thought the remake of REM's "Everybody Hurts" was huge this comes along. The new recording features production by popular producers RedOne and Will.i.am. Some of the artists in the 100-member choir assembled by Quincy Jones are Pink, Lil Wayne, Eminem, AR Rahman, Kanye West, Jonas Brothers, LL Cool J, Robin Thicke, Celine Dion, Akon, Rob Thomas, Wyclef Jean, Jeff Bridges, Vince Vaughn, Barbra Streisand, Jordin Sparks, Good Charlotte's Madden brothers, Tony Bennett, Josh Groban, Snoop Dogg, Steve Saville, Jennifer Hudson, Britney Spears, Keri Hilson, Jamie Foxx, Tyrese, Katharine McPhee, Sean Garrett, Will.i.am, Brandy, Carlos [...]
A while back we mentioned that a remake of 1985's charity single "We Are the World" was in the works as a benefit for the crisis in Haiti. Well, turns out they didn't drop the ball. Fuss over the inadequacies of today's pop crop all you want, but "We Are the World 20103 is no less a star-confettied affair than the original. More importantly, it's no less likely to attract massive attention (read: what really matters) than the original. Which was, no doubt, exactly the effect that project co-organizers Lionel Richie and producer Quincey Jones were [...]
We Are The World 2010 The UK's charity song had a fairly impressive list of singers , but the Americans just dialed it up a few notches with their Haiti earthquake relief charity single ' We Are The World '. The new version of the song features 75(ish) people! And to top it all off, the original was released 25 years ago and is yet another chance to honour the late Michael Jackson, who co-wrote the original. Here's a little behind the scenes of the recording. The final version [...]
The photo of basically every musician on the planet huddled together looks photoshopped, doesn't it? Incredibly, folks, it's the real deal—over 75 artists, from Barbara Streisand to Kanye West to Justin Bieber, came to Jim Henson Co. recording complex in Hollywood yesterday to record the "We Are The World" remake. The song will air on NBC February 12, during the opening ceremony of the Olympics. But you don't have to wait til then—after the jump, check out a preview of the music industry's finest in the studio, and a complete list of those involved... including some surprise names. [...]
As followers of our Twitter are more than aware, Kenny Bloggins has been straight fiendin' the past few weeks. It's probably been annoying as all hell, and I suppose I'm somewhat sorry. But not really - the final season of LOST begins tonight, and we are throwin' down. In the traditional way this blog celebrates all the stupid shit going on in my life, it seemed necessary to throw a Super Swingin' Mix in your vicinity. And hey, it also can serve as sort of a peace offering for my general numberskullery and insolence. So... all the songs below relate [...]

The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (Remastered + extra tracks (2006)
If you need some pointy-headed pundit to sell you on the merits of Pet Sounds, your money might be better spent on an ear specialist. Brian Wilson's gift to 20th-century music elevated this pop album into a beguiling musical and emotional cogency that still operates outside pop culture's fickle space-time continuum--and limited critical lexicon. There's never been another record to compare (
Ear on TV: Week of 02.08.10: Yeasayer
You have to give credit to Yeasayer for being brave. After releasing one of the more adventurous albums of 2007 with their world music-influenced debut, All Hour Cymbals , the Brooklyn band returns with a romantic and nearly electro-pop experience for their sophomore release, and you can already feel a backlash coming. They had previously positioned themselves between Animal Collective and Dirty Projectors in their sensibilities, but with Odd Blood , they sound closer to Depeche Mode (that is, if [...]

Kanye returns for "We Are the World"
Following Kanye West 's onstage invasion at last year's MTV Video Awards, which probably was the best thing that ever happened to Taylor Swift , the acclaimed Chicago rapper has remained relatively out of the spotlight in recent months. However, with demos now surfacing , ALL CAP BLOG POSTS returning , and a new studio album reportedly in the works , Ye appears set for a comeback. And as CNN reports, he recently kicked things off by lending his talents to a updated version of "We Are the World". The song, [...]
Lil Wayne:
If you never thought Lil Wayne and Brian Wilson would team up for a record, think again. As predicted, a large-scale gathering of musical minds happened after the Grammy Awards on Sunday (Jan.31) to rerecord a version of "We Are the World," with all proceeds from the track set to go to victims of the Haiti earthquake. The song was rerecorded at Henson Recording Studios in Hollywood just after the Grammys, and will be debuted on NBC on Feb. 12. Crash director Paul Haggis has put together a video for the song, which [...]
