  • Indie Mixtape 20 Q&A Is with Proper., Who Can Sing All the Words to Every Kanye and Say Anything Album (Even the Bad Ones)
    :: View email as a web page :: Chuck Klosterman once observed that every straight American man “has at least one transitionary period in his life when he believes Led Zeppelin is the only good band that ever existed.” Typically, this “Zeppelin phase” occurs in one’s teens, when a band that sings lasciviously about squeezing lemons while contemplating hobbits aligns with the surging hormones of the listener. But what about when you hit your early 30s? Is there a band that corresponds with graying beards and an encroaching sense of mortality? We believe, based on anecdotal evidence, that this band is the Grateful Dead. So many people who weren’t Dead fans when Jerry Garcia was alive have come to embrace the band, including many people in the indie-rock community, whether it’s Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend, Jim James of My Morning Jacket, or scores of others. Check out this piece on why the Dead is so popular now, even as the 25th anniversary of Garcia’s death looms, and let us know why you like them on Twitter. -- Steven Hyden, Uproxx Cultural Critic and author of This Isn't Happening: Radiohead's "Kid A" And The Beginning Of The 21st Century PS: Was this email forwarded to you?

  • Brazilian/American Trio São Paulo Underground Expands Psycho-Tropicalia Into New Dimensions on Cantos Invisíveis, a Global Tapestry That Transcends Place & Time
    Bio information: SÃO PAULO UNDERGROUND Title: CANTOS INVISÍVEIS (Cuneiform Rune 423) Format: CD / DIGITAL Cuneiform Promotion Dept: (301) 589-8894 / Fax (301) 589-1819 Press and world radio: [email protected] | North American and world radio: [email protected] www.cuneiformrecords.com FILE UNDER: JAZZ / TROPICALIA / ELECTRONIC / WORLD / PSYCHEDELIC / POST-JAZZ RELEASE DATE: OCTOBER 14, 2016 Brazilian/American Trio São Paulo Underground Expands Psycho-Tropicalia into New Dimensions on Cantos Invisíveis, a Global Tapestry that Transcends Place & Time Cantos Invisíveis is a wondrous album, a startling slab of 21st century trans-global music that mesmerizes, exhilarates and transports the listener to surreal dreamlands astride the equator. Never before has the fearless post-jazz, trans-continental trio São Paulo Underground sounded more confident than here on their fifth album and third release for Cuneiform. Weaving together a borderless electro-acoustic tapestry of North and South American, African and Asian, traditional folk and modern jazz, rock and electronica, the trio create music at once intimate and universal. On Cantos Invisíveis, nine tracks celebrate humanity by evoking lost haunts, enduring love, and the sheer delirious joy of making music together. São Paulo Underground fully manifests its expansive vision of a universal global music, one that blurs edges, transcends genres, defies national and temporal borders, and embraces humankind in its myriad physical and spiritual dimensions. Featuring three multi-instrumentalists, São Paulo Underground is the creation of Chicago-reared polymath Rob Mazurek (cornet, Mellotron, modular synthesizer, Moog Paraphonic, OP-1, percussion and voice) and two Brazilian masters of modern psycho- Tropicalia -- Mauricio Takara (drums, cavaquinho, electronics, Moog Werkstatt, percussion and voice) and Guilherme Granado (keyboards, synthesizers, sampler, percussion and voice).

Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band—makes its NY premiere at BAM, May 8—11 Pepperland Mark Morris Dance Group Choreography by Mark Morris Music by The Beatles and Ethan Iverson Music arrangements by Ethan Iverson Set design by Johan Henckens Costume design by Elizabeth Kurtzman Lighting design by Nick Kolin BAM Howard Gilman Opera House (30 Lafayette Ave) May 8—11 at 7:30pm Tickets start at $30 Physically Integrated Workshop: Mark Morris Dance Group Led by Domingo Estrada Jr. and Nicole Sabella Co-presented by BAM and Mark Morris Dance Group May 4 at 4pm Mark Morris Dance Center (3 Lafayette Ave) Price: $20 For dancers with and without disabilities April 1, 2019/Brooklyn, NY—Pepperland, a vivid work by the choreographer Mark Morris was created at the request of the City of Liverpool to inaugurate the “Sgt. Pepper at 50 Festival” in 2017, paying tribute to the Beatles’ groundbreaking album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Renowned for his profound understanding of musical forms, Morris teases out the album’s colorfully avant garde motifs through spirited movement and an inspired score by jazz composer Ethan Iverson. The Pepperland score is performed by a unique music ensemble, featuring voice, theremin, soprano sax, trombone, piano, keyboard, and percussion. Iverson’s new arrangements of six songs from the album intermingle with six “Pepper-inspired” original pieces, illuminating the LP’s eclectic roots. An important work of British psychedelia, musical influences included Indian classical music, vaudeville, classical, jazz, avant-garde, and blues.

Basically: it’s shit hot stuff and this album cannot come soon enough”—NOISEY “Pop gave the song a relatively restrained and poignant performance. The single, from his wonderfully titled new album Post Pop Depression,’ continues the bleak, grooving moods from his great David Bowie collaborations, and it's perhaps his catchiest new tune in a generation.”—THE LOS ANGELES TIMES “Glorious… ’Gardenia’ itself feels like a callback to the glory days of new wave, with Iggy’s trademark low voice channeling the spirit of his dearly departed friend David Bowie. Homme provides backing vocals and typically excellent guitar work.”—PASTE Its existence having been revealed to the world via a one-two punch of an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and exclusive profile in The New York Times, it can now be announced that Iggy Pop’s new album Post Pop Depression (Rekords Rekords/Loma Vista/Caroline International) will be supported by a very limited run of one-time-only live performances in specially selected venues.

  • Michael Jackson's Gesamtkunstwerk
    Liminalities: A Journal of Performance Studies Vol. 11, No. 5 (November 2015) Michael Jackson’s Gesamtkunstwerk: Artistic Interrelation, Immersion, and Interactivity From the Studio to the Stadium Sylvia J. Martin Michael Jackson produced art in its most total sense. Throughout his forty-year career Jackson merged art forms, melded genres and styles, and promoted an ethos of unity in his work. Jackson’s mastery of combined song and dance is generally acknowledged as the hallmark of his performance. Scholars have not- ed Jackson’s place in the lengthy soul tradition of enmeshed movement and mu- sic (Mercer 39; Neal 2012) with musicologist Jacqueline Warwick describing Jackson as “embodied musicality” (Warwick 249). Jackson’s colleagues have also attested that even when off-stage and off-camera, singing and dancing were frequently inseparable for Jackson. James Ingram, co-songwriter of the Thriller album hit “PYT,” was astonished when he observed Jackson burst into dance moves while recording that song, since in Ingram’s studio experience singers typically conserve their breath for recording (Smiley). Similarly, Bruce Swedien, Jackson’s longtime studio recording engineer, told National Public Radio, “Re- cording [with Jackson] was never a static event. We used to record with the lights out in the studio, and I had him on my drum platform. Michael would dance on that as he did the vocals” (Swedien ix-x). Surveying his life-long body of work, Jackson’s creative capacities, in fact, encompassed acting, directing, producing, staging, and design as well as lyri- cism, music composition, dance, and choreography—and many of these across genres (Brackett 2012).

  • DAVID MERRITT & the MUSIC of NOT LISTENING by Carl Wilson It Was Hearing About an Application Called Shazam That Made Me
    DAVID MERRITT & THE MUSIC OF NOT LISTENING by Carl Wilson It was hearing about an application called Shazam that made me finally give in and buy an iPhone. Rumour had it that it let you point your phone at any music playing, say, on the radio or in a shop or bar and, with a swipe of finger over touchscreen, get the song’s and artist’s names. For a writer about pop music whose superpowers do not include total trivia recall -- and who, for great chunks of his life, didn’t pay especially close heed to what was on the charts -- it was an irresistible lure: When “On the Loose” came chugging through the room, I’d be able to make a surreptitious consult and meet expectant questioning eyes with the answer that it was Saga who had to do it their way or no way at all, not any of the other 1970s Canadian chest-hair bands whose names might scissor-kick their way across my brain, like Triumph or Chilliwack or April Wine. No wonder the app was christened with the shibboleth of magical malarkey that comic- book Billy would shout in order to be lightning-strike-morphed into Captain Marvel. But in real life, Shazam was not such a thunderbolt. It can’t make out what I hear through the porous walls and floors of my apartment, or through the registers ringing or tableware clanking at a cafe It can only identify what was set apart and clear, the way music seldom comes these days -- Shazam pays a variety of attention to music that seems old-fashioned in a slick digital device, like the caricature of the “true” music fan that remains from album-era rock culture: headphones on, eyes shut, hands in prayer position against the chest.
