  • Sketches of the Inchoate by Charles Davi
    Sketches of the Inchoate By Charles Davi 2 The outlines of a day It's Syttende Mai, we're in the living room of our apartment, there's a TV mounted on a white wall. You take your earrings off, which are large, and silver, and quite reflective, your hair is blonde. Our bedroom is sunny, as is the entire apartment. I watch your fingers, as you take your earrings off - Your ear is almost glowing a bit in the light, and so I can see the faint outlines of the blood vessels branching under your skin, causing your earlobes to look like small opaque gumdrops, in context. It's all a bit disorienting, leaving me relieved, we're finally home - You seem so comfortable, undressing, slowly and casually, with something in between indifference and affection, occasionally, making eye-contact, smiling. Though I'm borderline offended by your pantyhose, which take me by sur- prise, given what you're wearing is, otherwise, tantamount to a costume: The translucent, brown top is high-waisted, looks a bit cheap, like a beer bottle. I can nonetheless see the outlines of your underwear in the bright light of the room, which compensates. Our apartment is not that big, though certainly not small - My snobbishness creeps into almost everything, including our home, though you are the rare exception, leaving even my exhausting pretensions exhausted, unable to find an unflattering aspect of your appearance, or behavior. The bedroom has what look like floor to ceiling windows, and the room is filled with typical Scandinavian summer sunlight: Ultra-bright and white.

  • DESPAIR” VIDEO SHOT ATOP the EMPIRE STATE BUILDING NSFW If Afraid of Heights Video Co-Produced and Premiered by Noisey
    For Immediate Release: June 24, 2013 YEAH YEAH YEAHS “DESPAIR” VIDEO SHOT ATOP THE EMPIRE STATE BUILDING NSFW if Afraid of Heights Video Co-Produced and Premiered by Noisey ( Credit: Patrick Daughters) New York, NY…June 24…The Yeah Yeah Yeahs reach new heights today with the video for their new single “Despair.” Skyscraper heights. 102-story, 443-meter, Empire State Building heights, to be exact. "There's been a lot of career highs and lows over the years of being in a band, but in the end, how many can say they shot a video on the top of the Empire State Building? We win,” says singer Karen O. “Move out the way, King Kong, Yeah Yeah Yeahs are gonna get real with you up in this piece!” “Despair” is the second single off the NYC-based trio’s album Mosquito (Interscope), which entered the Billboard Top 200 this April at #5. The concept for the video came courtesy of Noisey.com, who decided they wanted to co-produce a video for the band’s single by pairing New York’s quintessential landmark with New York’s quintessential band. However, until now, no band had ever shot a video atop the World’s Most Famous Building. ”The Empire State Building’s iconographic presence is not limited to any date or age. We are happy to offer our magical canvas, the real magic of the real New York City, to this video,” says Anthony E. Malkin of Malkin Holdings. “Big bands deserve big ideas. So, when Noisey was given the challenge to come up with a big idea for a new Yeah Yeah Yeahs video, we jokingly said… ‘let's get them to play on top of the Empire State Building!!’ Then we said, ‘actually…wait, why not!?’ We called the Empire State Building and not only were they into it, they were a pleasure to work with.

Despite the horrendous first “The Automator” Nakamura for a set single, Know Your Enemy, this is a that took Stonesy blues rock and cohesive outing that tells an Ennio Morricone and hauls them interesting, albeit slightly contrived, into the 21st century, complete with story of a lovelorn couple. Horseshoes killer riffs. and Handgrenades is about as close to punk as we’re likely to get from Yuksek Green Day again. Away from the Sea (Barclay) Illustration: Teresa Tan Teresa Illustration: Somewhere between Bob Sinclar, The Dead Weather Justice and Hall and Oates, Horehound (Warner) French-born music producer, Even when Jack White takes a back remixer and DJ Pierre-Alexandre seat – literally – as a drummer, his Busson channels 80s rock and trademark bluesy guitar riff can still electro, Britpop and pounding be heard throughout the album. But dance floor beats for a schizophrenic with other members such as Alison but irresistible set. Mosshart and Jack Lawrence sharing the vocals, the Dead Weather offer a Yeah Yeah Yeahs fix for those in need of some earthy It’s Blitz! (Polydor) garage rock. Taking an electro turn, the Yeahs manage to up their game without Florence + the Machine betraying their punk roots with a set Lungs (Island) of songs that, despite a pulsating Lungs is 45 minutes of soulful vocal new electronic sheen, still sounds as bliss. Florence Welch spills her soul if they’d been made for guitars. Their on tracks such as I’m Not Calling most satisfying album yet and a You a Liar and My Boy Builds Coffins.

  • Beyoncé's Lemonade Collaborator Melo-X Gives First Interview on Making of the Album.” Pitchfork, 25 Apr
    FACULTADE DE FILOLOXÍA DEPARTAMENTO DE FILOLOXÍA INGLESA GRAO EN INGLÉS: ESTUDOS LINGÜÍSTICOS E LITERARIOS Beyoncé’s Lemonade: “A winner don’t quit” ANDREA PATIÑO DE ARTAZA TFG 2017 Vº Bº COORDINADORA MARÍA FRÍAS RUDOLPHI Table of Contents Abstract 1. Introduction 3 2. Methodology 4 3. Beyonce's Lemonade (2016) 5 3.1 Denial: “Hold Up” 6 3.2 Accountability: “Daddy Lessons” 12 3.3 Hope: “Freedom” 21 3.4 Formation 33 4. Conclusion 44 5. Works Cited 46 Appendix 49 Abstract Beyoncé’s latest album has become an instant social phenomenon worldwide. Given its innovative poetic, visual, musical and socio-politic impact, the famous and controversial African American singer has taken an untraveled road—both personal and professional. The purpose of this essay is to provide a close reading of the poetry, music, lyrics and visuals in four sections from Beyoncé’s critically acclaimed Lemonade (2016). To this end, I have chosen what I believe are the most representative sections of Lemonade together with their respective songs. Thus, I focus on the song “Hold Up” from Denial; “Daddy Lessons” from Accountability, “Freedom” from Hope, and “Formation,” where Beyoncé addresses topics such as infidelity, racism, women’s representation, and racism and inequality. I analyse these topics through a close-reading and interpretation of Warsan Shire’s poetry (a source of inspiration), as well as Beyoncé’s own music, lyrics, and imagery. From this analysis, it is safe to say that Lemonade is a relevant work of art that will perdure in time, since it highlights positive representations of African-Americans, at the same time Beyoncé critically denounces the current racial unrest lived in the USA.

Certainly one filled with ups and downs (thinking about the Limestone road project here) but the bottom line is we’ve enjoyed bringing some great music to Lexington, both live and on disc. This booklet is our annual recap of some of the year’s brightest musical highlights. One of the great things we can look back at this year is our participation in Local First Lexington. All of the members of LFL are locally-owned, independent businesses who do great things for our community. These are the businesses that make Lexington a unique place among a sea of national chain stores. Please make it one of your New Year’s resolutions to “Think Local First” when making your buying decisions in the coming year. It feels good to shop local and it makes Lexington a better place.

  • Album Review: Karen O – Crush Songs | Nouse
    Nouse Web Archives Album Review: Karen O – Crush Songs Page 1 of 3 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Muse › Music › News Features Reviews Playlists Album Review: Karen O – Crush Songs Karen O makes a sterling effort on her debut album as a solo act, but doesn’t quite nail it By Hatti Linnell, Advertising Director (2014/15) Thursday 11 September 2014 We are used to seeing Karen Orzolek (usually known as Karen O) belting out the anthemic chorus of ‘Gold Lion’ or the weird yet wonderful ‘Sacrilege’ in her role as the lead singer in the American band, Yeah Yeah Yeahs. As one of my favourite front women in music today (it’s Karen over Hayley Williams any day of the week), I was excited to hear her solo effort but simultaneously concerned that she wouldn’t shine as much without the creative input of Zinner and Chase. Other than having a name unappealing to anyone over the age of 15, Crush Songs begins well. ‘Ooo’ is quite short, you might think, holding the unsatisfying property of ending almost before it has begun. Unfortunately, this theme becomes a constant in the album. ‘Rapt’ is beautiful and really shows off Orzolek’s songwriting skill. This song makes it clear why she opted for the lo-fi style which is present in the record, as it suits the theme of the weariness of love. This is followed by ‘Visits’, the closest this album comes to sounding like the Yeah Yeah Yeahs – not because it is particularly similar sonically, but perhaps the most memorable and interesting.

  • Hear Yeah Yeah Yeahs' New Trip-Hop 'Under the Earth' Remix
    Yeah Yeah Yeahs released a trip-hop-styled remix of 2013's "Under the Earth" to promote water sanitation charity Drop in the Bucket. Producer Nick Launay (Arcade Fire, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds) and Ming Vauze pepper the Mosquito track with pulsating synths and a drum groove around Karen O's brooding vocals. The track is featured in a video highlighting nonprofit Drop in the Bucket, which helps construct water sanitation systems at schools throughout Sub-Saharan Africa. "Access to clean water is a basic human right," the video states. "Yet for 663 million people in the world, water is a long walk away – a walk that often takes 3-6 hours every day. Children, particularly girls, spend hours every day fetching water. These are hours that could be spent in school. Every 20 seconds a child dies from drinking unsafe water." Yeah Yeah Yeahs went on hiatus in 2014 after finishing the tour behind their fourth album, Mosquito. In 2015, Karen O told Rolling Stone she was "in the full-time job of [motherhood] at the moment," focusing more on her personal life than music. "It's just waiting to see how everything works out with starting a family and seizing the moment when it strikes," she said. In April, the trio reunited for a one-off performance at New York's Dream Hotel during a party honoring photographer Mick Rock. The band, joined by TV on the Radio bassist Jaleel Bunton and keyboardist Money Mark, performed Lou Reed and David Bowie covers during the sprawling set..

  • Imaad Bio 2010 GER Text
    Biografie von Imaad Wasif: In einem anderen Leben hätte der in Los Angeles beheimatete Sänger und Songwriter Imaad Wasif vielleicht Dichter oder Priester sein können. Er schöpft seine Inspiration aus dem Jenseitigen, nach Verbindungen und kosmischen Mustern suchend, in der Hoffnung, gegenüber seinen Hörern jene einfachste und doch tiefgründigste Botschaft zum Ausdruck zu bringen: Wir sind nicht allein. Die Dringlichkeit dieser Mitteilung und sein Bedürfnis, sie zu übermitteln, verleihen sowohl seinen filigranen Gitarrenballaden als auch seinen leidenschaftlichen Rocksongs eine Wildheit und Zielstrebigkeit, die in jeder Note mitschwingen. Wasif geht mit seiner Musik zwar weit über das Hier und Jetzt hinaus, doch ist er seiner Zeit sehr eng verbunden. Er ist ein Rockmusiker, der im Coachella Valley der 1990er Jahre aufwuchs. Sehr früh spielte er live und im Studio mit Lou Barlow's Folk Implosion. Kill Rock Stars brachte 2006 sein selbstbetiteltes Debütalbum heraus, ein akustisches Psychedelic-Schmuckstück. Ungefähr zur selben Zeit wurde er als Gitarrist und Opener ( Voract ) für eine Tour der Yeah Yeah Yeahs verpflichtet. Auf seinem Zweitwerk Strange Hexes offenbarten sich Wasifs vielfältige Einflüsse. Das Album wurde mit seiner Band Two Part Beast, bestehend aus Bobb Bruno und Adam Garcia, aufgenommen und im März 2008 in Eigenregie veröffentlicht. Dieses Album lieferte zum ersten Mal eine Andeutung des unverwechselbaren Sounds, den Wasif letztendlich für sich kreiert hat; eine Post-Modern-Psychedelich-Rock-Explosion, die mächtig und raffiniert zugleich daherkommt. Die Platte wird 2010 auf Viva Hate Records wiederveröffentlicht. Nachdem er sich durch seine Auftritte als Opener für RTX, The Raconteurs, Neko Case, Arthur Lee’s Love und Sebadoh einen Ruf für seine intensiven Liveshows erspielt hatte, nahm er im Herbst 2009 eine erste eigene Tour in Angriff.
