MACHINE DREAMS / little dragon




LITTLE DRAGON Machine Dreams (2009 UK 11-track CD album - A bold and surprising side/two step onwards from their self titled debut, 'Machine Dreams', with its nagging hooks and gloriously infectious tunes, sees Little Dragon return with a pulsating electro pop epic that Prince would be proud of [only fronted by a beautiful Swedish lady with a sultry voice]. Recorded in their home city of Gothenburg, 'Machine Dreams' is a gigantic leap on from previous material but still maintains a distinct sound that can only be Little Dragon. Album opener 'A New' breaks us in gently with a single whirring note on the synthesiser, an almost alien sound that gradually morphs into a slow, thumping bassline. Whilst the single, 'Feather', finds Yukimi's voice at its most detached and blaze, seemingly nonchalant yet magnificently seductive. With additional highlights such as 'Runabout', 'Swimming' and 'Blinking Pigs', the album closes with the stunning 'Fortune', which, with its smattering of drums and bass and the magic of Yukimi's voice and Hakan's electronic dynamics floating on top, is the perfect track to end this fascinating journey through Little Dragon's brave new world!).


瑞典四人電子樂隊，美日混血女主唱深受多元音樂元素熏陶，音樂風格R&B，funk，Nu-jazz，soul，Indie大融合，還受美式民謠的影響，近日，她還說MJ是她一位喜愛的歌手，--他絕對是一名英雄，深深影響了全世界的流行音樂及文化，還說他們搭長途車時，亦不停在車上播放MJ的作品。淚奔....

Words Are Something Else / The Boats


http://www.myspace.com/bepputheboats 


Cat.No: home n003
Release date: June 12th, 2009
Edition number: 1000 


美妙旋律、溫暖音色，一點點的遊戲人間與人聲搭配，還有恰到好處的踢腦techno元素，讓英國的The Boats聽起來令人想起底特律與柏林電子餘韻，卻同時不經意多了幾分shoegazing況味


Release description:

As the saying goes, a change is as good as a rest. Never the band to rest on their illustrious laurels, or to misinterpret tradition, The Boats deliver a surprise in the form of ‘Words Are Something Else’.


Taking their influence from myriad places has always been a subtle hint toward the Boats current psyche, and using the words deep, and techno, while alluding to their new album is a new, if not slightly fashionable (and disconcerting to tradition) statement. The Boats, fashionable, in the same sentence? Well, not really, but the 4/4 underpinning, and synthesis of almost an ‘acid’ character of most of the album is definitely a new facet of the rough diamond that they’ve shaped over their career.


Speaking of shaping, the ease with which Chris Stewart’s voice is carved alongside the techno sensibilities makes it sound like he should always have been there. Songs like ‘Raindrops (Second)’ hold an almost Beatles-esque vocal harmony scattered and yet held in place by the insistent kick drum, and deft edits that keep the future firmly in mind, while paying homage to the past.

感受一日間的聲響幻變 Christopher Hipgrave – Day





 http://www.myspace.com/christopherhipgrave


Cat.No: home n004
Release date: June 26th, 2009
Edition number: 500



英國聲音藝術家Christopher Hipgrave首張個人專輯，以細緻含蓄的聲音表達手法，將日常自然聲響幻化成一首首有意味的樂詩，讓人感受大自然的靜穆與神秘。



Kurt Vonnegut, Jr. once spoke of nature as needing to be held close to humanity, to be a friend, instead of an enemy. ‘Day’, by Christopher Hipgrave, who is a composer, sound designer, and software programmer from England, presents the harmony of the humanity and closeness to nature, while still allowing the time of the day to pass hardly without notice, but with change and closeness.


panning 7 tracks, and 44 minutes, the simply descriptive titles of ‘Day’ transcend a controlled majesty over the evolving everyday. The times of the day are present, relative to structures of the surrounding world. All found in place: Flowers’ petals opening through an extended time-lapse, the trickle of water drops from rubber plants to the ground, the bending of grass blades shifting like razors, with only the temporal echo of the evening warming the last remaining seconds are present.

通向無限延長的聲音廢墟 Library Tapes -- Sketches (ep)


 

http://www.myspace.com/librarytapes 


Cat.No: home n001
Release date: March 20th, 2009
Edition number: 1000  



既直接卻模糊、豐富與簡樸並存、精準又遼遠...

Library Tapes(aka David Wenngren)再度透過聲音的編織將各種衝突矛盾的元素匯為一體。細碎慢燒的現成聲響與田野錄音，Danny Norbury的大提琴伴著殘響的鋼琴旋律。一切皆來得輕柔而雅致，自成11個窗戶，通向無限延長的聲音廢墟。

ENTERTAINMENT / fischerspooner

 



U.S. pressing of the 2009 release from the Electronica duo includes two bonus tracks. Fischerspooner are one of the most respected and successful crossover acts of the Electro renaissance. Their work fuses fine art and pop culture, as in their renowned outsider pop shows bursting with stage effects in both art galleries and traditional concert halls. Recorded over a two-year period with producer Jeff Saltzman, the music marks a further maturation of the group's sound. Written and recorded in a carriage house in Brooklyn, the album's special guests include actress/performance artist Ann Magnuson, UK musician Gabriel Olegovich, and legendary electronic collagist Steven Stein.

DEAD DRUNK / terrestrial tones



Brooklyn ’s Terrestrial Tones is the roommate duo of Eric Copeland (Black Dice) and Dave Portner (The Animal Collective). Over the years the two have been quietly making music in between Animal Collective and Black Dice commitments. Recorded in their apartment while living in Paris last summer, Terrestrial Tones’ third record "Dead Drunk" sounds like the duo spent a bit too much time in the Parisian flea markets. African food stands, forgotten European pop records, discarded American analog pedals and junk, old Soviet electronics, they all come together into something highly disconcerting, curiously pleasurable, and beyond new.

STILL NIGHT, STILL LIGHT / au revoir simone (日本進口版)




http://www.myspace.com/aurevoirsimone 

 

Au Revoir Simone是來自紐約的三人全鍵盤樂隊，三個來自紐約布魯克林的年輕長髮女子：Heather D’Angelo (主唱/鍵盤樂器/打擊樂器)Erika Forster (主唱/鍵盤樂器/)Annie Hart (主唱/鍵盤樂器/)，彷彿是從蘇菲亞哥布拉電影《Virgin Suicides》走出來的脫俗女子，音樂以清新可愛的電子鍵盤為基礎，點綴地加些女孩甜蜜可口的人聲，不過，有時可愛甜蜜的女聲也會變的昏暗低沉．．．難怪連agnes b.也對她們讚不絕口，這張《Still Night, Still Light》是她們2009年的最新專輯。

SCIENCE FOR THE LIVING / kyte (2CD)




http://www.myspace.com/kyteband


Leicester’s electro pop youngsters Kyte have been tipped by NME as one of England’s most exciting new discoveries in 2008. Combining their melodic sensibility with mysterious, yet beautiful arrangements, they make pop music sound effortless. Listening to Kyte’s stunningly beautiful soundscapes, you fully expect them have been recorded by the flickering light of the aurora borealis in some frozen wasteland near the Arctic Circle. New ablum is released in Japan first and with bonus CD.
