Black radio is Robert Glasper’s fourth release for the legendary NY label, an album he has been hinting at for years. Conceived as a “Family Reunion? with his experiment aka Glasper himself on keys, Chris Dave on drums, Derrick Hodge on bass, Casey Benjamin on saxophone and vocoder and friends like Yasiin Bey ‘aka mos def’, Bilal, Lupe Fiasco, Erykah Badu, Shafiq Husayn, or Meshell Ndegeocello, this project is definitely pushes the frontiers of music perception.” Is that jazz? RandB? Pop or rather hip hop? Probably mix a fine of all but the point is, these musicians are influenced by pioneers like J Dilla, David Bowie, Radiohead, John Coltrane or Herbie Hancock with something in common with them: they don’t want to have their music categorized – it’s just too narrow. | |||

Going strong now for over fifteenyears, smashing the windows and tearing down the walls of our minds everytime they roll through town, these truly vicious visionaries have cooked punk down to its most powerful base shape, crawling like Neanderthals through the muck, and creating a flaming trail of hits that’ll take quite a fit of dementia to ever forget. A perfect distillation of punk’s original open-ended weirdness, and modern music’s serrated salvation, the spits have proven themselves to be no one to fuck with, over and over again. True headliners, never to be followed and for good reason. With an ingenious amalgamation of DEVO’s early synth work in tandem with the absolute best thug punk grunt the Ramones could ever maliciously pattern, the spits never try to reinvent anything, the Related post.

In the midst of all the pseudo Luna registered between audience animations and vain to showcase oscillating music sauce of a Festival summer, they were so pleasant, so different, so peculiar and emancipated. The new album headshots sounds incredibly fresh. In the opener, “Decade 2″, an amazing reef skin first to the audience; a short time later Peter Heins voice with just that easily recognizable expression, this song, which only he knows we hear: urgent concrete and yet full of poetry and melancholy. This man is probably not able to sound trite or irrelevant.

Leslie Clio is young. With 25, but old enough to pop music for themselves to reinvent. “Soul-pop” is called Leslie. Fits. Leslie Clios voice is female, self-confident, and large, music rich in variety. Melodios and always snotty, defiantly, slightly distorted. Modern and retro. Handclaps and spring Hall, Club and ballroom. Like everything in life, also Leslie Clio has two sides. We hear in “told you so” or “I couldn’t care less” makes the strong, self-confident woman who not only knows what not she wants, the clear prompts. “Iceland” and “let go” suggest rather a thoughtful, shy, almost longing but yet never quite gentle Leslie.

The two suitcases he loads under the bus, which accompany him from city to city, hold the sweat-and-grime-soaked electronics that he uses to craft his raging, maxed-out party music and light show. After 12 tours and 300 shows in little over 2 years, the gear is beaten and battered, but the show and the energy it produces is anything but. Dan Deacon has garnered a reputation in the underground as an intense performer and classic showman. The table top full of pedals, a sine wave generator, vocoder and casio blasting through the PA, joined by a makeshift light board with various bulbs and green skull strobe light, make his all out dance-til-you-drop performance a complete experience. But it isn’t all fancy feet and bouncy beats. Deacon is a classically trained composer with a Masters degree in electro-acoustic composition. He has released 7 albums from 2003 to 2006, but those self-produced recordings do not contain the vocal-based experimental pop that he has fine-tuned in live performance. His latest full length, Spiderman of the rings is the first album bridging the gap between party performer and genuine co Buy tickets | |||
