Noah contacted me through the blog ... and I immediately actioned the dopeness that is about to unfold before your eyes : This 8 piece band fronted by Noah Sacré, complete with brass ensemble delivers some crazy 602s style Hip-Hop music. The band is called Almighty Planets . They currently have a cover version of SBTRKT 's 'Wildfire' on show and plenty more in the pipeline. So much more in fact it's heart breaking to find out they're waiting a proper release for their material. Rightfully, the cool dudes are keeping it under wraps. [...]

![[MP3] Azekel – Get It On (T.Rex / XXYYXX Cover)](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4710120_lg.jpg)
Not very much do we know about Azekel , but this pop - R&B singer is definately high on Schmike's agenda (one of our favourite blogger from Bristol : ilovepie.co.uk ). What we do know however, is that he's made quite a wave with his cover/mashup of T. Rex "Get It On" and XXYYXX's "alone instrumental, getting a few influencial blogs in a frenzy already. Azekel's cover is a very well produced and executed jam you can download below along with T.Rex's original piece for those born after 1990 and might not know of this [...]

Every heritage artist has that album that the critics herald as their 'return to form'. This one actually delivers. Reprise, 2012 8.2 / 10.0 The critical community did a fair amount of bellyaching earlier this year with the release of the highly anticipated reunion between Neil Young [...]

Green Day ¡Dos! Reprise/Warner Bros. Records [2012] Fire Note Says: The second offering of the Green Day trilogy works harder to find its own identity. Album Review: Green Day are back with the second installment of their trilogy, correctly titled ¡Dos! , and it once again throws caution to the wind with its free spirited vibe. This release of course is coming at you after the [...]

Neil Young and Crazy Horse Psychedelic Pill Reprise/Warner Bros. Records [2012] Fire Note Says: Neil Young saddles up the Horse for a long psychedelic journey through the past! Album Review: Until this spring, it had been nearly a decade since Neil Young had saddled up his longtime backing band Crazy Horse and recorded with them. Now we have Psychedelic Pill , which is the 2nd album [...]

Non ho ricordi molto felici del 2006, ma a volte ti accorgi che da lontano tante cose sbiadiscono e alcune addirittura sembrano migliori. Così, quando qualche attimo fa mi sono ritrovato sullo schermo questa copertina così familiare ho avuto un sussulto di tenerezza. A Century of Covers , la compilation tributo ai Belle & Sebastian che all'epoca mise assieme (e in free download!) la piccola net-label Kirsten's Postcard (un'avventura finita troppo presto) fu un momento davvero bello , di quelli che uniscono tra molti sorrisi persone lontane, come abbiamo imparato che succedeva all'epoca dei blog. [...]

Frank Sinatra and Antonio Carlos Jobim are two musicians who are no strangers to collaborations. Throughout their long and celebrated careers they both collaborated with a number of established acts. When both musical giants met for the 1967 album, “Francis Albert Sinatra & Antonio Carlos Jobim,” it represented a merger of two distinct styles from men who could both be described as pioneers and trendsetters. Often when two worlds meet the end result is an underwhelming experience, notwithstanding, this is not the case for the album. This collaboration works so well that one gets the [...]

Green Day ¡Uno! Reprise/Warner Bros. Records [2012] Fire Note Says: Green Day goes back to the basics on ¡Uno! which makes for a fun pop punk ride. Album Review: Sometimes it is nice to hear an artist sound like what you think they should sound like. Over the last eight years Green Day have taken their driving power pop punk to the extremes for solid [...]

Rebetiko, musique de l'underground grec Je ne me risquerais pas à vous faire une explication de texte sur le Rebetiko . Sachez simplement que ce genre musical est né en Grèce dans les années 1920. C'est avec/par/grâce au rebetiko que les immigrés arrivant à Athènes pouvaient exprimer leurs doutes, leurs peurs, chanter leur misère, leurs déboires.... Musique des bas fonds, musique du port lieu d'arrivée des déracinés. Le Rebetiko a vite été catalogué par les autorités comme une musique de voyous, de fumeurs de haschich, de buveurs invétérés d'ouzo. Progressivement le genre s'est [...]

Mono mixes of the Electric Prunes’ singles 1966-69 For those who weren’t there in ’66 and ’67, the oldies radio shorthand for the Electric Prunes has been their one big hit, “I Had to Much to Dream (Last Night),” as anthologized (as the lead off track, no less) on Lenny Kaye’s legendary Nuggets compilation. The few strokes of shading inclues their chart follow-up, “Get Me to the World on Time,” and an oft-anthologized ad for Vox Wah-Wah pedals. It’s an abbreviation that shortchanges the band’s recorded legacy. Reissues [...]
It's been over a year since the original version of Diplo and Don Diablo's "Make You Pop" was released. After the track's popularity plateaued - owed largely in part to the BlackBerry commercial it was featured in - we finally get a reprised and remixed package of updates to play out. Each version offers a unique spin on the original electro house track - ranging from the Dutch bleeps in the reprise, to the drum-heavy baseline of Tommie Sunshine & Figure's remix. Check out the minimix below and head over to Beatport to pick up your favorite version (or the [...]

A ma gauche un groupe qui vient de s'éteindre, à ma droite un groupe qui ne fait plus la une des journaux qu'il avait pris l'habitude d'occuper depuis 2004 et qui promet de revenir en 2012. LCD Soundsystem lâche maintenant cette reprise du titre Live Alone datant de 2009 avec un clip mêlant de très belles prises de vue de New York et une installation lumineuse des plus psychédéliques. Une piqûre de rappel pour leurs fans qui ont pu les oublier un peu vite et un vilain couteau dans la plaie pour ceux qui les pleurent [...]
Sur la petite scène du Studio des Champs Elysées, l’hiver dernier, Ólöf Arnalds offrait des roses aux femmes des premiers rangs et du bonheur à tous les autres spectateurs… Un concert intime où la demoiselle d’Islande agrémentait son répertoire personnel de folk baladin d’autrui, avec des reprises inattendues et rayonnantes (dont le « Maria Bethania » de Caetano Veloso, joliment dépaysé pour l’occasion). Les absents avaient tort, comme toujours, mais Ólöf, grand cœur et générosité immense, a continué toute l’année à distiller, de scènes en scènes, ses interprétations de standards du siècle [...]

Mastodon The Hunter Reprise Records [2011] Fire Note Says: Mastodon drop the concept but still bring the heavy on fifth long player The Hunter ! Album Review: For Mastodon's fifth album, The Hunter , the band forgoes a deep concept and just brings the heavy rock that you have come to expect from the Atlanta group. This gives the band some new creative [...]
