"i want sounds no one has ever heard on earth!" Les Paul, who died on August 13th said the above. the man literally did chase sounds previously unheard by mankind for almost his entire life.
got this at dublin flea market yesterday. 5 Euro! dvd with documentary, cd all nicely wrapped. finding it hard to see links to where you can buy it but i'd recommend you'd check it out.
tune from the documentary above (the way of the crowd) on northern soul and wigan casino. great story. and music. and dancing. a scene. Download 19 Let's Get Ugly
favela on blast, gets screened in austin during sxsw. looks great and a pretty unique insight into the worlds that are inhabited musically and physically by those involved.hope i get to see it here sometime.
4pm Saturday March 14th at The Hideout and 10pm Thursday March 19th at Paramount (with Diplo Q&A after screening)!
apologies to all (especially ken) for missing yesterday's post. got much sidetracked over the weekend. gonna post two tunes today to make up for it.
first up is junior boys (playing dublin, march 14th). much thanks to covert for turning me onto this album. i've had it on and off for the past two weeks with some tunes off the album, Begone Dull Care*, grabbing more attention than others but overall a really interesting and enjoyable album to listen to.
dunno why i hadn't posted this next tune before. nialler9 he talked about jaydiohead back in january, describing the album as "2009s first worthy mashup album" and great stuff it is with 'wrong prayer' being such a big tune. jay-z is just a powerful rapper. pure poet skills. get the album here.
*Begone Dull Care is also a movie made in 1949 which has a plot , as described by imdb as being 'Abstract images drawn directly onto the film are accompanied by three pieces of jazz performed by the Oscar Peterson trio.' posting the whole thing here as its great and this then counts as a design/art post aswell as i'm due one.one the best depiction of music i've seen and its drawn like an animation. brilliant.
every song i've posted here has some special meaning. some just more so than others. i've never written a song and don't know if i ever will. even if i did i don't think i'd find the words to be able to describe the way i feel. its nice to be able to leave it up to others though and sometimes, not often, but sometimes, someone comes along and does it nicely for you...
thanks to chris flew for sharing this. its something else.
the last two nights I've been sitting up with my mate JC, enjoying some fine booze and both nights we stumbled across this song by Herbie Hancock featuring Corinne Bailey Rae. Both times I've just been blown away by the simplistic beauty of it all.
big excitement in the cubik household as we await the upcoming album, slime & reason, from the man himself roots manuva who is one of my favourite artists from England with lashings of bass and top rhymes.
if you're in London this weekend you can check our Roots Manuva and Sway playing at the iTunes Live festival. You can enter a competition to win tickets here.
Check out this mini-documentary where the he talks about some aspects of the upcoming release and then after that we have the video for the first single, buff nuff.
