One of the most beautiful and talented artists to break-out this year is Lia Ices . Her amazing and latest album, Grown Unknown (Jan. 24), has helped her land a spot in the Mexican Summer x Gorilla vs. Bear SXSW showcase with other artists like The Fresh & Onlys, Toro Y Moi, White Denim, and the Grimes. No other song released this year has been as moving and monumental as her eloquent single, "Daphne." Justin Vernon's (Bon Iver) vocals only enhance the already magnificent masterpiece. The freshly released video for "Daphne" was shot in California wine country otherwise [...]
Directed by Aaron Brown/Focus Creeps . Shot in Sonoma, CA. Catch Lia Ices at the gorilla vs. bear x mexican summer SXSW 2011 showcase . mp3: Lia Ices :: Daphne
New video for "This Old Dark Machine" from one of Vagrant's latest signings, James Vincent McMorrow who fans of folky beard rock like Iron and Wine, Band of Horses and Bon Iver will definitely appreciate.. Check out the mp3 for "If I Had A Boat" from Early In The Morning below. Mp3: James Vincent McMorrow - If I Had A Boat
From his January 2011 release Early In The Morning , James Vincent McMorrow has created a video for the single "This Old Dark Machine." I have seen other blogs refer to McMorrow has Ireland's answer to Bon Iver but I will leave that determination up to you .. Filed under: Music , WATCH THIS Tagged: acousic , Bon Iver [...]
A trio of talented singers took Bon Iver's "For Emma" and performed a lovely, a capella arrangement of it in Salt Lake City's Union Station.
I was introduced to this song by the fabulous Winter (Or What We Mistake for December) mix that Cheryse posted last Friday. It turns out that the creator of the enchanting tune, S. Care y, is a singer and multi-instrumentalist in Bon Iver who released his solo debut last fall. The stunning track is matched with a video that's just as lovely. The clip matches the wintry feel of the song depicting a young boy and girl bonding amidst a snowy Swedish backdrop, so basically Let The Right One In without [...]
El día de ayer tuvimos la suerte de tener a Phil Vinall (productor de bandas como Radiohead, Pulp y Zoé) en las oficinas de Noiselab como invitado en el stream de Mijangos . Durante la conversación que tuvieron hubo una pregunta que me hizo pensar: ¿Qué banda de la actualidad te dan ganas de escuchar todos los días? le preguntó Mijangos a Phil; momento de silencio, después de unos 5 minutos en trance donde mi mente era como una rockola pasando por artistas de los últimos años me di cuenta que iba a ser mas difícil [...]
Kanye West’s video for his single “Monster” (featuring cameos by Jay-Z, Rick Ross, Nicki Minaj and Justin Vernon of Bon Iver) has hit YouTube in a very rough phase of its edit. The obviously NSFW clip, which features all sorts of gore and zombie, dominatrix, slave, decapitated heads, etc. in its visuals, isn't nearly done, [...]
Finally, the long waited video featuring rap juggernauts has leaked. "Monster" is probably by far one of Kanye West's best collaboration songs. It is also Nicki Minaj's best lyrically out of any of her own songs, too bad she can't always spit like that. Anyway, the video is a little strange, but it is entertaining. I'd say it fits the theme of the song pretty well. What do you think? Watch below.
I'm taking a break from tweaking the new layout for this, the official video for KanYe West's 'Monster' featuring Nicki Minaj, rick Ross, Jay-Z & Bon Iver. Directed by Jake Nava, watch it while it's up: Yes, will update with one with better sound as soon as it hits the interwebz.
Viewers be on guard as the Jake Nava -directed video for Kanye West's "Monster" will continue all opinions that the eccentric rapper is a devil worshipper. The terrifying video sees West playing and laying with a handful of dead female bodies: very dark. The video is still unfinished but the show stealer is none other than Nicki Minaj, once again. It's a hype for a hype song, now go watch.
The music video for Kanye West's Monster featuring Jay-Z, Bon Iver, Rick Ross and Nicki Minaj leaked to the interwebs today. It'll probably be taken down, as it seems to be an unfinished preview copy- so get it while it's hot! I can't wait to see it in it's proper HD glory. Purchase: Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (Album) - Amazon ($7.99 on CD), iTunes Listen & Download: Kanye West and Jay-Z - Monster (Feat. Bon Iver, [...]
'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' is finally upon us, I will skip the persona/character that is Kanye West, his controversies, album cover dramas, outbursts, personal life and try to base this review purely on this album. Following on from 2008's '808's And Heartbreak' there are avant-garde aspects of music with less of the soul samples [...]
After weeks of buildup, Kanye West's art film/music mega-video debuted worldwide tonight, just as he wanted it to, more or less . As we mentioned after seeing the U.S. premiere , the 35-minute film tells the tale of a phoenix who falls to earth and tries to fit into modern culture, with an epic soundtrack built from nine of Ye's new songs. Watch the whole film, which kicks off with Nicki Minaj's narration, and see (finally!) the My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy tracklisting below. [...]
Partial to this remix of the Kanye West track "Monster," by Austin King. The original just seems to slow and more dull compared to this pitched-up version. Kanye West: "Monster (Austin King Remix):" You know. The Nicki Minaj verse is really good [emphasis added]. Share and Enjoy:
Gayngs performed "The Gaudy Side of Town" on Jimmy Fallon the other night. Since I wasn't able to embed that video I linked to it below and embedded another live video above. As someone born 16 days into the 70s I experienced it all on an unconscious level. By the time I was getting into my music phase, the 802s arrived and everyone knew the 702s sucked. So while I would be hard pressed to name many artists or songs from that era, deep in my brain is this vague nostalgia for things I can barely recall. Enter [...]
Super group Gayngs use auto-tuning, horn solos, and a preteen to cover "By Your Side" by Sade. It will make you laugh, it will make you smile, and it just might make make you cry.
Due to the fact that 'Lost in the World' ft. featuring Justin Vernon of Bon Iver, an actual track from KanYe West's upcoming fifth album, leaked earlier this week mr. West threatened via Twitter that he would be forced to cancel this weeks edition of the #GOODFriday. And so he did. Instead, he has actually managed to make it a #GOODWeekend this week as not only did he unleashed 'Christian Dior Denim Flow' ft. KiD CuDi, Pusha T, John Legend, Lloyd Banks & Ryan Leslie yesterday on the G.O.O.D. Friday site, no he also graced Saturday Night [...]
