El día de hoy, esta columna está dedicada a La Lupe. Voz irrepetible y desgarradora; testimonio de la pasión y sufrimiento de una de las máximas figuras de la música cubana, que nos hace recordar nuestras propias penas y al mismo tiempo alegrarnos con su ritmo y su inmenso talento. La Lupe nació en San Pedrito, Santiago de Cuba en 1936. Como Celia Cruz, antes de que su carrera musical explotara, obtuvo un certificado como maestra. Un año antes de mudarse a La Habana, en 1954, entró a un concurse en la radio [...]
[It's Bjork's birthday on Saturday, celebrate appropriately. Here's my late-arriving weekend rundown:] Tonight: Alan Palomo's Neon Indian [pictured; download below] brings its multimedia synthscapes to the Echoplex for a night of cool electro that includes Keenhouse , Tigercity and Little Red Radio . ... Julian Casablancas hits downtown's Palace Theatre for Week 3 of his residency. ... Party guys Iglu & Hartly try to build on their U.K. buzz with a show in their home city at [...]
In the Book Notes series, authors create and discuss a music playlist that relates in some way to their recently published book. Blake Butler is the rare young writer who consistently and effectively challenges his readers. Scorch Atlas is a haunting collection of interconnected stories and vignettes, a dystopian work of genius. The book itself is a work of art. The internal pages are individually distressed, and the page edges and cover appear burnt and scarred, and the design complements the book's theme perfectly. Matt [...]
Friday! Quick-hit thoughts of the week! QUICK-HIT THOUGHTS OF THE WEEK! 1. Whatever Brains - Gross Urge (mp3) ( buy ) BAM! Whatever Brains ( myspace ) is a Raleigh, North Carolina band called WHATEVER BRAINS. That automatically qualifies them to be AWESOME, but this song - along with a lot of the rest of their Trim-Jeans and/or Gross Urge Plus Ten CD-R - qualifies them to be DOUBLE AWESOME. I'm more comfortable thinking of them as traditional lo-fi punk than as [...]
At the tour's request, we did not photograph the Swell Season. The photos are of the opening act Doveman. Since seeing the Swell Season 's fantastic performance at Berklee Performance Center, I've told several friends that I haven't seen "Once," the film that launched the duo of Glen Hansard and Markéta Irglová and their real-life romance. Each time, I get the same reaction: my friend puts a hand to her chest and a hand on my arm, looks me straight in the eye and says, "You must see 'Once.' It's [...]

Stars' new record is a departure - into U2 and Coldplay territory There's a rule of thumb among the music industry's more professionally-minded producers and songwriters that three minutes and 30 seconds is the ideal length for a pop song. It's long enough for the rousing refrains to get repeated a few times, structurally it allows the inclusion of most major elements of a song (bridge, breakdown, perhaps a guitar motif), and, last but far from least, it's the length that radio stations and late-night talk shows...
As you know by now, we at NPR Music sent out a series of questions to people in the music, arts and entertainment communities. We wanted to get a sense of people's thoughts and feelings pertaining to the last decade in music, and what their thoughts were about the future. One question we asked was: What is the one song, movement or artist that sums up the decade for you, and why? Our respondents had a variety of answers, from Kanye West to M.I.A. to Beirut. Please add your [...]

Don't forget to rate the album at the end of the post. Welcome back to Blinded By The Hype, the PMA feature in which we revisit albums once the hype has died down. In today's world, music is released at a machine gun pace. It's a what-have-you-done-for-me-late ly type scene, and "lately" usually means this week. Rarely do we stop to smell the roses. Even good albums get overlooked as time passes. And we almost never – aside from year end lists – take a look backward. Hindsight is 20-20, and we'd like to apply that retrovision [...]
is it just me or does jesu seem more at home here than on hydra head? doth broadrick on these records not have more in common with the fuzzy slo-mo murmurings of mark kozelek and alan sparhawks rockist tendencies? i think so. in fact i'd be so bloody bold (though not really) to say that this shit is just red house painters turned way the fuck up. actually that's a pretty stupid thing to come out with. retraction, your honour. anyhoo. this is the new ep. and all my favourite jesu shit comes out on ep.

As part of our ongoing end-of-the-decade coverage, we sent out a survey to various people in the music, arts and entertainment communities. Here is another question we asked: What does "indie" mean to you? Discuss our respondents' answers and leave your own in the comments section. Douglas Wolk, writer: That's very simple. "Indie" is short for "independent." Independently released music is not directly financially dependent on any of the four major labels (WMG, Sony BMG, EMI and Universal). "Indie" does [...]
By Jean Smith, novelist and singer in the literary rock duo Mecca Normal Rather than present a quasi-factual, semi-amusing trajectory through origins of the word "underground" -- complete with references to the Underground Railroad and the Weather Underground -- I want to open a window into how and why I do things. I invite everyone reading this to compare this to conventional objectives of mainstream bands. Historically, artists have been put into categories invented by the media, defined by journalists who grapple with language to supply the general public with [...]
It's almost cliché, but after college I drove cross country with a few friends and, literally, filled out a Relix internship application in the parking lot before a Deer Creek Phish show. I sent it off at a local Kinkos and after some persistent nudging scored an interview that fall. I interned for Aeve Baldwin, who was the editor at that time, and after a few months that turned into a part time job at the magazine. I did pretty much every job under the editorial sun except—luckily for Relix—copy editing, including project coordinator, staff writer, Jambands.com contributing editor, staff [...]
Wikipedia knows next to nothing of the Stockton-on-Tees noisenik quartet undulating the underground enough to crack Geordie pavements. Lead barker Kingsley Hall may well be the most articulate cult figurehead to shred the pages of NME with unequalled bravado and outspoken chivalry since Morrissey. Taking on the mainstream, one sycophant-smashing step at a time, The Chapman Family may well be the dark horses to back over the dingy, hurdled tracks of a recession-obsessed England. Brace yourselves- it's lenghty. But comedic genius shouldn't be abbreviated... Dots: The majority of those aware of the cataclysmic [...]
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make a fan review video for last week's Country Music Awards, but I thought it'd be appropriate to write a little something about it as it is one of Nashville's biggest nights. The whole week was madness – but fun madness. The company I work for is in charge of organizing the CMA remote broadcast and putting together coverage options for radio stations. About 50 stations, came to the Downtown Hilton and set up shop in a conference room. For 3 days, Country stars ranging from Jason [...]

The Who:
There's probably more money in rock star autobiograhpies than in album sales these days, which makes all the stars writing autobiographies these days make cents (sorry). The Who's Roger Daltrey has been approached to write his autobiography, and as he talked about it on The Rock Radio, he totally undersells it: "I'm thinking about a biography now," Daltrey said. "It's probably time. Just the story of my life and the things I've done, y'know, it's kind of interesting." I'd love to hear that pitch. "Dear editor, I'd like [...]
