por Ênio Jr. Seguindo com os mixtapes lembrando da década passada, venho com com esta 2.0(00) (sim, é um trocadilho geek infame). Foi difícil selecionar, mas entre várias dos anos 2000 ficaram estas 14 melodias que me marcaram de alguma maneira, seja pela época e/ou situação que comecei a escutar, seja pela própria música. Alternam-se momentos calmos com outros mais agitados e as obviedades com coisas não tão óbvias assim. [MP3] 2.0(00) Mixtape [...]
Michael Palmieri When I wrote up Sharon Van Etten's debut album Because I Was In Love back in October , I felt a bit bad about giving it just a passing mention as I liked it more than just a sentence or two might have implied. But at the time my web hosting was self-destructing and I wanted to get something out there before her local appearance opening for Rain Machine , so a cursory mention it was. But with there seeming to be even [...]

Good For Cows is proof that jazz and metal aren't as far apart as one might think and can successfully live on the same musical plane. Ches Smith (Xiu Xiu, Secret Chiefs 3, Traditionalists, Marc Ribot's Ceramic Dog) and Devin Hoff (Nels Cline Singers, Xiu Xiu) started off as an acoustic, instrumental jazz duo where bass and drums reigned supreme. On Audumla , the group's fourth album, though, acoustic jazz is traded in for upright bass, heavy distortion and effects better suited for a haunted house than Birdland. Judging by Audumla , the pair apparently has been listening [...]
Having laid Floyd to rest, the men of the Corps set out again up the Missouri towards the Mandan Village. Private Patrick Gass would be promoted to Sergeant as his replacement. The very same day Private George Shannon, who would develop something of reputation among the men for getting detached from the expedition turn up missing. He would return a full sixteen days later (note that Clark mistakenly reports this as 12). It is however, the incident with the Teton Sioux (Lakota) which would prove to be the most dramatic, and [...]
Eternal drift, slowly consuming time, earth ... Lone spaceman, gravity-less, galaxy-borne ... Two salt shakers trembling on a table under the thrum of a ... of a .. . KET chup lullabye ... Awwwww JESUS CHRIST. There I go again, letting my mind wander like a lost little Swedish boy. I really do get carried away. It's just that I like this album ever so much. I close my eyes, tune in/out and all of a sudden I'm [...]

Seems like it was only yesterday that I was cobbling together the TDoL best of 2008 . Yes, time flies when you're old and surly. And, yes, I know year-end lists are everywhere, cliché, overdone and a dime a dozen-but I do love them so. These lists are difficult to make, too. I mean who has time to really absorb a full record when you're being bombarded with hundreds of albums and mp3s? It was chore to make a list that exorcised both my discerning (wax-clogged) ear and my (beer-besotted) gut-the "I can see what this artist [...]
Toronto – So 2009 was kind of a weird year for me. While a lot of great music came out this year, it was also the year I became more apathetic about music for some reason. It's because of this that I actually had a bit of a hard time remembering what I heard and actually liked this year. That said, here's the stuff I liked the most this year, organized in the most arbitrary and illogical manner possible. SONGS: Grizzly Bear featuring Michael McDonald – "While You Wait For The [...]

1. Life with Tamar - So 10 years ago I asked the then volunteer director at WFMU out for a drink and she said yes (after several earlier attempts of which the majority were met with indifference; not even a sneer, obvious disgust, or a why are you talking to me look). The next week I was looking forward to our second date when Hurricane Floyd hit putting the kibosh on that idea. (I did get to watch one of my roomates at the time, a proper English gentleman, stand out in [...]
Filed under: Concerts and Tours , News , New Music , Exclusive Vermont psychedelic-folksters MV and EE are one busy bunch. So busy, it seems that multi-instrumentalist and singer Erika Elder hasn't had the time to finish her collaboration with Wilco guitarist Nels Cline. "The project with Nels is really long, and I procrastinate when left to my own devices," Elder tells Spinner. "I know Nels is very busy, too.
