Celldweller – Blackstar Act One: Purified (Orignal Score) 2013

Celldweller - Blackstar Act One_ Purified (Original Score)

Celldweller - Blackstar Act One_ Purified (Original Score) This is a quite exciting joint adventure. On one hand we’ve got the futuristic, always inventive music of Celldweller and on the other hand, the award-winning science fiction/fantasy author Joshua Viola best known for his eleven-time award-winning ultra-violent novel, “The Bane of Yoto”.
While the music of Celldweller has always sounded as though ripped from the pages of a sci-fi epic; it’s not really a surprise that there was a narrative behind the sound which slowly came together in Klaytonʼs head. So, he teamed up with Joshua Viola to put that story on paper and the story wouldn’t be complete without a proper score, isn’t it?
Released “Blackstar Act One: Purified”, in the form of both an Original Score as well as a fictional eBook give us the full taste of action and adventure.
The story of “Blackstar” is a thrilling sci-fi adventure that will transport fans to the world only hinted at in prior Celldweller albums, while musically is a journey from ’80s-inspired ‘New Retro’ to unsettling ‘Dark Ambient’ to ‘Electronic/Metal’ fury, all while painting an evocative sonic backdrop to the book.
Download a free sample of the ebook and listen into the EP below. Read more Celldweller – Blackstar Act One: Purified (Orignal Score) 2013

Foxe Basin’s Get It Together [Neon Disco RMX]

Foxe Basin Get It Together

Foxe Basin Get It Together Foxe Basin is a shallow oceanic basin north of Hudson Bay, in Nunavut, Canada, located between Baffin Island and the Melville Peninsula. For most of the year, it is blocked by ice floes.
The nutrient-rich cold waters found in the basin are known to be especially favorable to phytoplankton and the numerous islands within it are important bird habitats, including Sabine’s Gulls and many types of shorebirds. Bowhead whales migrate to the northern part of the basin each summer.
The basin takes its name from the English explorer Luke Foxe who entered the lower part in 1631. Born in Kingston-upon-Hull, Yorkshire, Luke Foxe searched for the Northwest Passage across North America. In 1631, he sailed much of the western Hudson Bay before concluding no such passage was possible. Foxe Basin, Foxe Channel and Foxe Peninsula were named after him.
I’ve got not the slightest clue if Miss Foxe Basin is anyway relative to the late Luke Foxe or Read more Foxe Basin’s Get It Together [Neon Disco RMX]

For the memory of Florent Pevee, singer/guitarist of Kabul Golf Club

kgc

kgc Singer/guitarist of Kabul Golf Club, (and also member of The Rott Childs) Florent Pevee has passed away on Friday 29 november. R.I.P.!
Contorted and dissonant, with roots back to Steve Albini’s Big Black and Shellac, reminding me of some pioneering bands such as Cop Shoot Cop, Cardiacs and H.P. Zinker, and being similarly psycho and sick such as some contemporaries like The Dillinger Escape Plan and Blood Brothers, Kabul Golf Club was one of the most promising experimental HC bands.

The band would like to keep his memory alive through his music. Anybody who wants to receive a FREE copy of “Le bal du rat mort” has to send Read more For the memory of Florent Pevee, singer/guitarist of Kabul Golf Club

Lady Gaga – Artpop (2013)

Lady Gaga – ARTPOP (2013)

Lady Gaga – ARTPOP (2013) Pop art was/is an art movement that emerged in the mid-1950s in Britain and in the late 1950s in the United States, Andy Warhol being one of its leading figure. Pop art presented a challenge to traditions of fine art by including imagery from popular culture such as advertising, news, etc. One of its most powerful instrument is creating collages, sometimes elements are removed from their known context, isolated, and/or combined with unrelated elements.
And this is something what it’s actually perfectly applicable to Lady Gaga’s third album called “Artpop”. It’s a vivid mixture of dance music (sub) genres, EDM meets hip hop, but nothing it’s art related, no matter how hard Lady Gaga try to shock her audience, followers and the media. Because – once again – this is more about shocking, more about the show, then about the music. What I said/write about “Born This Way” it’s pretty much applicable for “Artpop” as well. I still can sing while I’m showering songs like “Poker Face” or “Paparazzi”, I can’t recall a single melody from her previous album, those “hits” (“Born This Way”, “Judas”, and “The Edge of Glory”) were all less memorable then the songs from her debut album and listening to “Artpop”, around track 5 (“Jewels n’ Drugs”) I can’t recall a single good line or a chorus from her new songs. And this is pretty sad and disappointing. The production it’s fabulous, everything sound great and powerful, it’s quite minimal, but pretty fancy EDM, but there are no songs, the music it’s completely absent once again and a little bit scandal and controversy won’t make that frustrating feeling disappear.
