No one has shaped my view of music more than James Yancey. He challenged our idea of music and pushed us towards a more progressive and creative appreciation of hip hop. He died six years ago, but the music lives on in his wake. This project is dedicated to the life and memory of the one and only J Dilla. -L'Orange DOWNLOAD "Still Spinning" ON BANDCAMP CLICK HERE L'Orange: Twitter • Facebook • Bandcamp [...]
![[new] Fast Planet – These Hills](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4049763_lg.jpg)
Memphis has a strangely disjointed music scene these days , or at least as it seems to me - but I am a native Memphian and a relative outsider at times, even in my own town. Things are changing so quickly these days as I focus on working with Future Unlimited , truly the most exciting new band I've heard in years, and veer away from really writing this music blog as more than a hobby. My tastes have accrued over time & I've gravitated towards certain aspects of the music created here [...]

For her new single "All Bets Are Off" , singer/songwriter Nerina Pallot once again teamed up with her husband/producer Andy Chatterley for a "We Are The Chatterleys" alternate mix. Having tried '80s disco before , this time they paid tribute to the '90s, which results in 3 minutes and 29 seconds of trip-hoppy loveliness. STREAM: Nerina Pallot - All Bets Are Off (We Are The Chatterleys Alt Mix) In other news, Nerina recently re-released her last album under a new title [...]

![[foot196] Eternalovers – Silence Of Sorrow EP](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4038763_lg.jpg)
In October 2011 Eternalovers recorded their first official album in North Studio, called "Silence of Sorrow". For the promotion of the album a music video to the song "My Silence" has also been realized. In "Tribute to Komeda" there is a piece by the jazz pianist, Krzysztof Komeda, used, called Koukol Loughs. The piece "Kochac i tracic" (To Love and To Lose) is an interpretation of the poem by a Polish poet, Leopold Staff. The newest music material includes works of music which evolved towards dark trip-hop and nu-jazz consolidating with ambient rooted in the Eternalovers duo. [...]
Trip hop music has absolutely exploded in the last three or four years, probably due in most part to Portishead 's rise in success and fan base. With the emergence of artists' such as Emancipator , Bonobo , and The Flashbulb , the trip hop community has been spoon fed album after album of downtempo music. It's no wonder that we are seeing a surge of young, talented musicians who are able to make massive beats in their own bedroom. Years ago, it seemed like this kind of thing would be unimaginable but with technology at [...]

![[Review/Listen] – Puscifer – "Conditions Of My Parole"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4032738_lg.jpg)
Tweet I have a confession to make. I am a huge fan of Tool , A Perfect Circle and all things Maynard James Keenan . HUGE. That being said, I can already see your cursor poised over the Back button, ready to click, but WAIT, hear me out. Puscifer ( puss-if-her ) is a horse of a different color and shouldn't be grouped together with Maynard's other creative accomplishments. Puscifer's music isn't intimidating, like Tool can be, nor [...]

Today's post celebrates one of my favorite producers/musicians currently making music. I've disappointed myself by not having posted more of his incredible sounds before, but I intend to make up for this immediately. Also, check out how awesome the above picture is - Bonobo in the woods with an SP-1200 - freaking brilliant. Without further ado, here's Bonobo. Be sure to buy his latest project Black Sands on iTunes . 1009 - Bonobo - Click play arrow to left of song title to play. via [...]
Nach fünf Jahren Bandbestehen hat's endlich geklappt. Mit dem ersten professionell produzierten Marylane-Album. Voller MelanchoPop-Kleinode, die mit einzigartiger Aura zu bezaubern wissen. Acht Stücke haben es aufs Debüt "Marylane" (VÖ 3.2.) geschafft. Qualität statt Quantität. Die Arbeit an den Songs umfasst eine Zeitspanne von zwei Jahren. Unterstützt wurden die Zürcher Musikstudenten von den Produzenten Thomas Fessler (77 Bombay Street, Sina, Plüsch) und Bebi Jegen. Als Mischer konnte Luk Zimmermann (Lunik, MiNa) gewonnen werden, der die Platte aus Begeisterung gleich beim eigenen Label Sophie Records [...]

I did my last exam for a couple months today, and I'm feeling a little inspired. Once again knockin' up a lil' playlist of stuff I'm feelin' at the moment for you lot to hear and that. Less words more tunes. I know I'm pretty late to the Pretty Lights bandwagon, but hot damn if his first album doesn't hit all the right spots for me. I loves me hippity hops, plus it shares a couple samples you may recognise. The first one is from Nightmares On Wax [...]

I can't ever tell if Die Antword is "for real," or they meant to make you feel like you stumbled upon some bizarre-kinkfest cattle-prod porno that makes you linger guiltily on the "stop" button. Well you like it, just admit it. While Ten$sions is not yet out, the single "I Fink U Freaky," is circulating the web. At first listen it is just a crappy club purge, but then comes the fucked-up accent that we are told is South African but is more reminiscent of that dead girl who lived (?) at the bottom of the [...]
