Smells Like the 90s - part 38
1 comment	posted by crissy.moran on 29.05.2007

1997's Animals on Wheels - Designs & Mistakes (Zen - Ninja Tune). This album is a "thricewise cross between sloppy, jazz-driven drill'n'bass, Aphex-y distorto jungle, and druggy downtempo head music, each managed competently, but none managing to completely obscure the numbers from which their colors seem to derive."

Un regal de la PR-ul lui Traistariu

'Mihai Traistariu - in aceeasi masina cu Brad Pitt!!!

Proaspat intors dintr-un concert in Malta, Mihai Traistariu a avut parte numai de lucruri bune.
Pe langa faptul ca organizatorii concertului i-au platit tot ce inseamna hotel, avion si mesele principale la restaurante de lux, tot ei s-au gandit sa-i puna la dispozitie masina si sofer. Astfel ca 24 de ore din 24, Mihai a avut in fata hotelului o masina cu sofer care sa-l duca unde vrea, cand vrea ... la orice ora din zi sau noapte.
Pana aici nimic spectaculos, pana cand soferul masinii s-a imprietenit cu cantaretul si, din vorba in vorba, i-a dezvaluit lui Mihai ceva ce avea sa-l lase mut de uimire. Astfel, cu doar o saptamana inainte de a veni Mihai in Malta, acelasi sofer si aceeasi masina fusesera pentru cateva zile la dispozitia lui... Brad Pitt.
Ati citit bine!
Celebrul actor a filmat cateva secvente din urmatorul sau film in Malta si, pe perioada cat a stat acolo, a avut la dispozitie masina firmei Nicks Company.
Pe site-ul companiei (www.nicks1.com), figureaza de asemenea alte figuri de la Hollywood care au beneficiat de masini "la scara" in Malta, printre care: Jennifer Anniston, Peter O' Toole, Orlando Bloom, Andreea Bocelli, iar la loc de cinste, in topul personal al patronului se afla pe locul 1 - Mihai Traistariu, "Tornero" cum e trecut si pe site.
Mihai a fost placut surprins sa afle ca a calatorit la doar o saptamana distanta in aceeasi masina cu ... celebrul Brad Pitt !
Si, fiindca patronul, pe nume Nick, n-a rezistat tentatiei de a face o poza cu Brad Pitt chiar langa masina personala, nici Mihai n-a rezistat tentatiei de a face o poza demonstrativa cu masina si soferul care i-a purtat pe ambii artisti pe meleaguri malteze.'

Yo, Rap Cat
0 comments	posted by crissy.moran on 25.05.2007

"Rapcat's got a flow that cannot be matched, honed in the streets and alleys of his hometown, Jersey City. In the tradition of the greatest East Coast rappers, Rapcat writes all his own lyrics".
Watch the video. Not quite very funny but a strong ironic point for MTV's R'n'B. It used to be soul music, now it's just "miau miau" everywhere.

Groove Armada - Soundboy Rock

2007 Columbia. Easy listening commercial electronica with a twist. "All bases covered, there is enough to keep most music fans happy although some may complain Tom and Andy have tried a little too hard to please everyone. A band that has always been able to produce hit singles and retain their cool detachment, Groove Armada have created an album that will certainly get people talking."

Apparat - Walls
6 comments	posted by crissy.moran on 23.05.2007

2007 - Shitkatapult. Apparat has melded his genius as a sound designer with his growing songwriting talents to craft 14 songs brimming with ideas, energy, texture, light, color. They are hummable, embraceable, swimmable, possibly edible. "Having made a considerable splash with the Ellen Allien collaboration Orchestra of Bubbles, Apparat returned to his own path with Walls, a remarkable album that ranks as his best yet." Glitch/IDM meets dream pop/newgaze. Remarkable indeed. Check out 1st comment pls.

Adopta si tu un ONG

Da, in lumea civilizata, cu papionul drept si lornionul dezaburit periodic, ONG-urile sunt un fel de pets pentru cetatean, primind atentia cuvenita si un procent din venitul lunar. Iata ca si la noi se intampla lucruri: blogarimea e invitata sa mangaie ONG-ul favorit in vazul publicului internaut. Personal, am luat in brate World Vision Romania (www.worldvision.ro) ale caror eforturi depuse in favoarea copiilor cu probleme sociale/medicale acute le cunosc de multa vreme. Click pe logo sa-ti alegi ONG-ul!

Ma fleur - Cinematic Orchestra
5 comments	posted by crissy.moran on 21.05.2007

2007 Ninja Tune. "This is an album which reaches for and finds a truth and honesty far beyond what we would normally expect from such a record, but without losing any of the accessibility which made Cinematic Orchestra popular in the first place. If the mood is melancholy, Swinscoe and the musicians he works with manage to make it an ultimately uplifting experience". Ma Fleur definitely has a different feel to the other albums, and its possible that some fans of earlier material will find the album too sparse in places. I personally digg it, introducing a mellow state of mind filled with trippy, playfull, intimate and reflective downbeat jazzy electronica.

Smells Like the 90s - part 37
5 comments	posted by crissy.moran on 18.05.2007

1992 Black Dog Productions - Bytes (Warp). This release, from one of the few truly influential electronic music pioneers in the early 1990's, Black Dog, has been hailed as being one of the most innovative and influential recordings from the early Warp Catalogue, as part of the label's "Artificial Intelligence" series. The focus on "Bytes" is lively, complex, intricate and emotive sounds that send the listener into states of hypnotic bliss, with their established tones flowing seamlesslessly throughout the album and yet managing to incorporate a diverse array of styles in each track. Electro-techno/IDM

Bad Loop - Luo

2005 (One Label). Electronica/IDM/Experimental. This flourishing shuffled step and melodic craftsman from Finland proves his commitment to taking his style to new heights and quality with Luo. An achievement inviting you to quietly listen and enjoy a comfortable and catchy groove with its adventurous instrumental adornment, thoughtful melodies, spiraling synths, playful/pragmatic percussion, and bouncing bass. bad loop's intent to create a solidly cohesive listen from begining to end has paid off.

Mira Calix - Eyes against the sun

2007 Warp. Mira Calix, prolific producer of glitchy art-hop, composer of conceptual works from insect noises to opera scores, and member of Warp's first alt.classical act Alexander's Annexe. Natural and organic sounds and processing them heavily to form glitchy beats and odd soundscapes.

Milanese - Extend
5 comments	posted by crissy.moran on 08.05.2007

2006's Extend (Planet Mu) de la Milanese. Un artist destul de incapatanat (listen) si de haotic. De la drill'n'bass spre Grime. ("grime is a down-and-dirty derivative of U.K. hip-hop, which in and of itself sounds almost nothing like U.S. hip-hop, and grime is also closely related to dub step, which is apparently hip-hop with dancehall reggae flavors and tech step dexterity. Or something like that".)

Se intreaba prietena M. Pascu rasfoind numarul 3 din publicatia "Monocle", noua manifestare al domnului Brűlé, Tyler pentru apropiati.

Iar despre site, nici ca altcineva putea s-o spuna mai bine: "un coverage scurt, modest, rezervat, de la salone internazionale del mobile; nimic entuziast - fara scirbosul umor, cu politete - practic, fara stil despre stilisti."

De mentionat si gratioasa bicicleta Monocle, de achizitionat in schimbul a 600 de sterline, nu si pentru Bucuresti.

Fretless AZM with the 1999's Millennium Butterflies (Holistic). Trip-hop/Acid jazz/Electronica with some house beat flavour. This is the last and the best album from multi-instrumentalist Max Brennan (painter/decorator and veteran of several live funk bands).
