A difícil arte de recriar o trabalho dos outros. Tentar recriar a música de alguém com uma carreira tão essencial e bem resolvida quanto a de Nina Simone, pode parecer quase uma heresia ou uma perda de tempo. O risco de pouco ou nada acrescentar a canções perpetuadas no tempo é grande e o perigo de remover a alma a canções intemporais é ainda maior. A lista de possíveis contrariedades não tem fim à vista. Me'Shell Ndegéocello discorda dessa ideia e em Pour Une Âme Souveraine: A Dedication to Nina Simone [...]

The tender Washed Out track, “A Dedication”, receives a new beautifully shot video. Taking place on a serene lake house, our two characters must deal with loneliness, triumph, and ultimately, how to make the scenic weekend possible. When Ernest Greene is soundtracking your adventure, the possibilities are endless. The track is taken from Within and Without , available now.
Washed Out - A Dedication
If there's one tried and true rule of making a popular music video, it's this: prominently feature an adorable animal, then sit back and watch people fawn. Ernest Greene (aka Washed Out ) must have taken this into consideration with his video for “A Dedication,” which features a kitten lounging around a sleepy lakeside cabin. In addition to said feline, the video also shows Greene and a lady friend playing piano, walking through fields and swimming in a lake at dusk. Feeling relaxed yet? Add in Greene’s layered, hazy harmonies plus a beautifully simple piano riff and you get [...]

Although the track is a year old, this video gives me goosebumps. With soft silhouettes and a sad, almost aching piano riff, WASHED OUT ’s new clip for ‘A Dedication’ really makes you feel something. At 1:20 when that synth comes in like a heartbeat. The flickering images of love and loss and wonder. That snare that appears at exactly the right moment. There is a definite story underneath the surface of this song. The clip eludes to it; to heartbreak and regret and passion and life. But these themes [...]

Washed Out's new album is either brilliant or nonsensical. He's either a genius or a warmed-over Enya from Georgia with hair on his chest. Chill wave is either the next big thing in music or a bunch of hipster crap. Within And Without is an album that you'll either love or hate; I think it's great. "A Dedication" is the perfect kick your feet up summer jam. Washed Out starts with a lazy piano loop, adds some humid static and haunting vocals on top of it, and lets it build. Slowly. Like a big Gator [...]

Tweet Washed Out 's new album has been receiving praise almost across the board, including from us where Austin described it as sounding "like a guy who just drank his entire codeine syrup prescription all at once, singing and playing a synth through a delay pedal over a drum machine, all while spelunking in a magnificent cave". The debut single from the album "Eyes Be Closed" got its official release on 123 vinyl and is backed by remixes, [...]

Due to my indecisiveness on who should headline my entry this month, I'm going to start in alphabetical order: Braid: Closer To Closed - As many of you read earlier, I mentioned that I was a fan of Braid a few years back and I'd even go so far as to say that they helped shape my high school and post-high school years and its with these fond memories that I'm forced to look at this record through. When I first got this, I was [...]

Tweet Buy the album from Amazon - Vinyl / MP3 / CD Washed Out has done it again, folks. This time it's a full-length follow up to 20092s sibling EPs, "Life of Leisure" and "High Times". If you haven't heard Washed Out yet, I can say one of two things with much certainty: you either don't subscribe to the mad love that chillwave gets from the interwebs, [...]

Chillwave. The mere thought of the word sends shivers down the spines of music bloggers all over the world. Pupils narrow, fingertips begin to sweat and Twitter goes into meltdown. With the underground community heralding 2010 as the year chillwave exploded, it's no surprise that the shoegaze influenced sound is beginning to sweep it's way into mainstream consciousness. The forefront of the hugely contentious movement has seen the likes of Panda Bear, Neon Indian and Toro Y Moi at the helm of the ship, all originally pioneered as one piece outfits. Another solo project to lead the chillwave charge was [...]
