Apesar de não ser nosso foco, o Friday Mixes sempre foi parte do nosso blog. Na coluna, músicas já conhecidas ganhavam uma segunda chance pra brilhar, e os ganhos foram tantos (tanto para o blog quanto para os leitores), que assim chegamos na 37ª edição. No caminho conquistamos novos leitores, convencemos que remixes não eram apenas "versões eletrônicas" e, principalmente, espalhamos a "boa música" na mão de diversos DJs e no som de várias pickups, mantendo o repertório sempre renovado. E por falar em novidades, marque o número dessa edição. A partir do volume [...]
Três meses separam esse Friday Mixes do último que fizemos, e os pedidos foram tantos que tive que deixar a preguiça de lado por uma sexta-feira pelo menos pra retornar à ativa. Fazer um post desse tamanho nunca é fácil, ainda mais quando temos a disposição mais de 100 remixes pré-selecionado que fizeram nossa cabeça esse tempo todo que a seção esteve "fora". Eles eventualmente aparecerão por aqui, mas abaixo você irá conferir doze dos melhores remixes que ficaram escondidos esse tempo, então recomendo que chequem todos, um por um, e aqueles que não conhecer a original, recomendo [...]
For better or for worse, UK-based music magazine NME has rolled out its shortlist of nominees for its 2012 NME Awards. Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga and Adele each earned noms across the various irreverent categories — some more forgiving than others. ( Born This Way and Under the Mistletoe both came in under Worst Album, oof!) Also scoring nods were newcomers Lana Del Rey and Azealia Banks and awards veterans Coldplay, The Throne and Katy Perry. See the full list of 2012 NME Award nominees below. The winners [...]
I was a little hesitant on compiling a list of my favorite non-electro heavy tracks for 2011. It seemed like most blogs had the gist of what mine would look like and, for the most part, I didn't have too much to add. But I decided to sack it up and do it anyway because (1) I wanted to keep track for future reference and (2) I did manage to find some real gems in here. I also tried to make it all flow together Instead of just a random list of favorites, so [...]
Ed Sheeran , Jessie J y Adele predominan en las nominaciones a los Brit Awards . El joven compositor inglés Ed Sheeran está nominado en cuatro categorías, incluído Mejor Solista Masculino Inglés compitiendo contra James Blake , James Morrison , Noel Gallagher y Professor Green . También está nominado para Mejor Álbum Inglés junto a gigantes [...]
Following on (belatedly) from Eclectic Eavesdroppings Favourite Albums of the year, here are my Favourite Songs of 2011 . Compressing the musical year into a mere twenty-five songs is a tough task for a music junkie like myself. Listing the songs in order of preference is near impossible. But either way, I’ve done my best to get a list together and even though it’s incredibly subjective, it sums up a very good year in music. Stream it as a playlist on YouTube over HERE or download a copy of the whole mix over HERE . [...]
2011 was a great year for music, heralding the return of veteran bands, Foo Fighters and Red Hot Chili Peppers while new artists Foster The People and The Naked & Famous broke through in a big way. Here's B-Sides Top 11 Songs of 2011! 11. Lana Del Rey, "Video Games:" The "gangsta Nancy Sinatra," Lana Del Rey could not have described herself any better. Backed by orchestral bombast, the songstress unashamedly attempts to hold onto a love that is no longer present. "I say you the bestest," [...]
Throughout 2011 we have been offering you lots of free music. Here is La.Ga.Sta.'s most downloaded tracks of the year. It's no surprise that Magician's remix of Lykke Li's "I Follow Rivers" is top of the list. A huge remix that you can still hear coming out loud from the car stereos. There are some great tunes in there as well, from Rapture, M83 and Washed Out to Mylo, Discodeine, and Poolside. Not to mention Villa's take on Adele's "Rolling In The Deep" - another exclusive track from La.Ga.Sta. This is yours Top 20 chart. Fill it up (one more [...]
Muchas veces se escucha que la música está en decadencia y, la verdad, me parece una cosa bastante estúpida. No estamos en los años gloriosos donde se estaban descubriendo muchos estilos, The Beatles no están entre nosotros y Kurt Cobain se voló la cabeza hace ya mucho tiempo, pero vamos, igualmente hay muchas nuevas agrupaciones o solistas que valen la pena, que presentan nuevas propuestas que logran llamar la atención y componer tanto líricamente como musicalmente, canciones buenas. Por ese motivo en Cuchara Sónica , como todos los años, hicimos una lista de lo mejor que apareció durante [...]
Ahhhh, the remix category. Generally, people are polarized by this genre of music, loving or hating remixes with a furious passion. When pondering the more philosophical side of this category, a parallel (strange, and possibly dorky) thought continually crept into the forefront of my mind: the fluffernutter sandwich. A twist on the original peanut butter and jelly classic, the fluffernutter is peanut butter and marshmallow fluff - unexpected yet slightly familiar, delicious to fans and potentially unappealing to zealots of tradition. Whatever your preference - fluffernutter or not - our top ten remixes of 2011 [...]
10. Kanye West - All of the Lights Even though I love this video, the concept was pretty much taken from Gaspar Noé’s award-winning psycho-thriller , Enter the Void 's opening credits. I guess to Hype Williams, copying is a form of flattery. 9. Lana Del Rey - Born to Die 8. Metronomy - The Bay 7. The Strokes - Taken for a Fool [...]
"Essa é a minha música!" - Quantas vezes você já proferiu essa frase em toda a sua vida? Ou no último ano? Tudo e todos nesse planeta em que vivemos possuem seu próprio conjunto de notas e versos, dos países aos produtos, dos programas de TV a um casal de namorados... até mesmo os anos possuem suas músicas próprias. Então, se 2011 fosse um país, qual seria seu hino? Seria uma melodia calma e cordial ou uma canção agressiva e impiedosa? Se fosse um produto, qual seria seu jingle? Ele venderia entradas para uma festa, ou caixas de [...]
OK, so we've already had the top 20 albums, here we look at the top tracks (that don't feature on the best albums) of the year... It's been a really strong year of releases, with a lot of sifting required, however after much distillation, here we present our top 20... 20: The Strokes - Taken for A Fool [...]
Mellow Monday is making the change to "Maui Monday" on the next post I'm posting later on. We are growing everyday with your help and getting more music than we thought we could handle. But it's nice to get the love from all you guys, and the music is really wonderful. I am grateful to be listening to such great music and so should you be! :P Birdy with another Cover. Birdy - Young Blood (The Naked and the Famous Cover) [...]
![Brandon’s TBE Digest 30 – [11.3.2011] New Jams, Remixes, & Covers!](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3837268_lg.jpg)
Artwork by Jacob Youngblood Ziegler Brandon's TBE Digest is a place where I gather up all the recent jams that are worth a listen (or 10) but don't necessarily need their own post. Here you will find new tracks by known bands, remixes, covers, and even mashups if they are interesting. My favorites of the lot are in bold . A big batch of goodies this time round. Plus, since it's a nice round number Jacob Youngblood Ziegler hooked us [...]
Today is Halloween and it falls on a Monday, so I'm going to give you guys a Mellow Monday with a bit of Halloween extras. Due to the number of songs, I have separated the 2 types of mellow in 2 posts, this and the next one! Wale is coming up in the big leagues, give him some room or else he'll make room!! Wale - Slight Work (feat. Big Sean) [...]
COVER ME! #4 » Nossa seção de covers voltou! Depois de 6 meses em stand-by, a seção COVER ME! está de volta! E celebrando esse retorno, nada melhor que uma seleção especial pra dar start na semana, não é? Destaque para o cover de Sophie Ellis-Bextor pra “Rebellion (Lies)” , originalmente gravada pelo Arcade Fire , e para a versão do Scissor Sisters pra “All The Lovers” , da Kylie Minogue , que parece ter saído de um western spaghetti dos [...]
Halloween is coming up and for those of you that live here in Denver, you will be able to partake in what could be the largest zombie crawl tomorrow. Ever. The Denver Zombie Crawl has been going on for a couple of years now, but the current obsession of all things zombie has pushed the interest in the event to high gear. There will be an after party at City Hall after the crawling festivities and you can get more information here . Notorious B.I.G. - Hypnotize (Cheapshot Remix) [...]
