By Oliver Wang Mainstream R&B radio, retail and video industries never had cause to pay retro-soul much mind until Amy Winehouse demonstrated its commercial potential. ( Sean Gallup / Getty Images Entertainment ) In the early 1990s, two brothers and some friends in Munich formed the Poets of Rhythm, a band inspired by the "deep [...]
I got the opportunity to see War on Drugs guitarist and recent Matador acquisition Kurt Vile on the final date of his American tour. I turned the following in to another local blog but was horrendously late in doing so. I still find this review relevant to anyone curious about Vile, who has become one of my favorite new finds of 2009. So here are my thoughts on last week's Black Cat show. Photo from the Matador Records website [...]

photo by Mr T in DC It has only been a few months since I made the move to Brooklyn from Charlottesville, so I thought I'd give a little Cville music shout-out. Although it's a pretty small city, Charlottesville has always had a fairly bustling live music scene. But over the last few years, it had been marred by a ton of turnover with the town's mid-size music venues. The Satellite Ballroom closed, Gravity Lounge shuttered its doors, and Is hardly lasted a year. The Paramount was [...]
New York Magazine recently featured 40 bands that "defined" the Brooklyn sound which includes MGMT, Grizzly Bear and Dirty Projectors as the TOP 3. The entire list is as following: 40 Light Asylum - "Angel Tongue" 39 Oakley Hall - "All the Way Down" 38 Here We Go Magic - "Fangela" 37 Apache Beat - "Tropics" 36 Bishop Allen - "Click, Click, Click, Click" 35 White Rabbits - "Percussion Gun" 34 Japanther - "Challenge" 33 Class Actress - "All The Saints" 32 Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson - "The Debtor" 31 Ninjasonik - "Art [...]
Many entertainers performing in Las Vegas are aware of a malady known as "Vegas Throat." Due to this city's arid climate, singers with sensitive vocals often have a problem adapting to the low humidity. When seventy-five year old Leonard Cohen took the stage last night at the Caesars Palace Colosseum, I feared the already raspy and baritone-voiced icon was suffering the dreaded affliction. Luckily, it was a false alarm. I know Mr. Cohen has a beautifully rough voice to begin with, but last night however, his initial vocals sounded like a worn-out piece of sixty-grit sandpaper. Thankfully, it soon eased [...]
Where were you on the night before the dawn of the New Millennium? Jon Kerr was getting a pit going in Jilly's Rockworld, Manchester. We've asked him to summarise the ten years since then in all things metal in a handy A to Z J udas Priest As if one seminal British vocalist returning to his former band wasn't enough, Rob Halford followed suit in 2003 and re-joined Judas Priest . Angel of Retribution followed and Priest [...]
Toronto - If there's ever been a neighborhood that has risen to prominence in the past few years, it's definitely Brooklyn. I guess in actuality, they are a city.

Check out NY Mags top 40 songs that define Brooklyn. 40 Light Asylum - "Angel Tongue" 39 Oakley Hall - "All the Way Down" 38 Here We Go Magic - "Fangela" 37 Apache Beat - "Tropics" [...]
Born: 1972 in New York. Latest release: NGH WHT—The Dead Emcee Scrolls with the Arditti Quartet, a collaboration with composer Thomas Kessler. Why you care: Quick—name a slam poet other than Saul Williams. Guaranteed, if that were a question on Cash Cab, 10 out of 10 contestants would get kicked to the curb. But it isn't just that Williams is the face—make that the only face—of a niche art form; it's hard to find a performer, in any medium, who possesses the same level of intensity. (Hell, [...]
Canadian crooner Michael Bublé returns with his 4th studio album, "Crazy Love" , released earlier in October. After collaborating with Nelly Furtado (on the multi platinum album "This Time" , back in 2005) and Boyz II Men (on his previous release, "Call Me Irresponsible" , in 2007), the Jazzy Pop phenomenon teams up with vocal band Naturally 7 , and with Soulful diva Sharon Jones and her backing band The Dap-Kings (famous for their work with Mark Ronson/Amy Winehouse).

It's that classic biblical tale: little known DJ from suburban Michigan takes on soul god from Motown. And the winner is... In 2007, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings nabbed it in a hard fought battle. Last year, Raphael Saadiq easily triumphed. And now, ladies and germs, I'm pleased to announce that this year's award for album that sounds most like '60s-era Smokey Robinson goes to a relatively unlikely source: one Mayer Hawthorne, a suburban Michigan DJ whose debut release, A Strange Arrangement, so closely resembles Robinson's early work that it could be easily mistaken for a...
