this is an up and hopeful song of the period from a band i used to care for deeply.Īs we slip into the autumn here, i am prepared to let my new song of obsession become “the game” by echo and the bunnymen. i have a habit of dropping back 20 years in my thoughts, and having a parallel soundtrack running in my head so that i may be walking in a street in 2008, but my head is in 1988. Mp3: steve miller band - one in a millionĮvery day when i leave the house and walk over the iron bridge and up to the glasshouses, i listen to “what for” by james. i was recently in stockholm visiting my friend victoria (bergsman) from taken by trees and we were singing it in the flat and talked about recording it. in fact i'd love to do a cover version of it. the lyrics are quite simple and i guessĬorny but it's a great tune and the production is so good it really doesn't matter. his voice is like honey in the sun and it totally melts my heart. My favourite song at the moment is called 'one in a million' by steve miller. the harmonies in the chorus make my hairs stand up. it's a song about a sharecropper in alabama and it is so sad, beautiful and timeless that I can't help but listen more than once in a row. I have been obsessively listening and waking up to this tune by gillian welch called "annabelle". these grey locations held hands with her harmonium perfectly. until yesterday we have been on tour in scandinavia, russia, poland, austria, germany and czech. I have a nico button on my guitar strap and her excess eyeliner has been burning the dirge "janitor of lunacy" into my waking ears as of late, at least 20 times in the last week. Mp3: vinícius + bethania + toquinho – a tonga da mironga do kabuletê (live in buenos aires, 1971) It is like a beautiful sunrise – although I think that the lyrics are actually some sort of political commentary disguised as a Candomble/Afro-Brazilian curse – but whatever! And then you should just leave the CD on, and listen to the rest of the album while you have your coffee. The perfect song to start the day is “A Tonga Da Mironga Do Kabuleté” – the live recording from 1971 by Brazilian artists Vinícius + Bethania + Toquinho. sanity ‘from the point of no return’, personally. but, i’m listening to Steely Dan’s “Babylon Sisters”. often enough, it’s someone else’s sonic leak i’m getting addressed by. in all honesty, there is no ipod nor a single earplugging devicetron which i’d attend to. time frame where all you hear is yourself in a foggy blur, thinking if sleep is really all that important because the early few are storming off for work. and by morning, we’re looking at the 4 a.m. Often enough, it’s the early morning rush which gets me excited about shutting my eyes. The song in particular that gets me going in the morning is called "Schéma Corporel". however, Automelodi stuck out in my mind as being an authentic, genuine, NON-cheesy version of the 80s I wish I was a part of. It was a vinyl set of like 4 pieces or something. and so one day, he put on a Wierd Records compilation. He knows I have a soft spot for 80s/90s post punk/early electro, vaguely alternative music.
I work at a record label ( Ba Da Bing Records) and my boss, Ben, is constantly getting new records in.
Be sure to check out the rest of the album because it is packed with amazing songs.Lately, I have been obsessed with this band from Montreal called Automelodi.
This is a song that will definitely get your head bobbing and maybe even your hips shaking. It’s almost as if her lyrics are not the main part of the tune but her voice is just there as another instrument added onto the track. Then Alice chimes in and screams the almost unrecognizable lyrics with an echoing distortion. The song begins with a heavy house-like beat that is quickly replaced by one of the band’s staple chip-tune beats. The album has the same grit and heavy distortion that the first album had and it is easily noticeable on the track, Baptism. The duo have released their 2nd album, Crystal Castles (yup, the same name as the first album), on iTunes and the CD will be released on June 8th. Crystal Castles, is a duo from Ontario, Canada comprised of Alice Glass(vocals) and Ethan Kath(producer). And when two people get together and create something on the same creative and mental wavelength, its magical. Something about the dynamic of 2 people’s skill sets complimenting each other just works for me. Sam & Dave, Hall & Oates, Outkast, and Simon & Garfunkel are some of my favorite artists ever.
