These 11 songs are only a sampling of all new songs performed by Elverum in a two-week tour of Japan in early 2003. After spending five months in isolation in Norway, Elverum emerged with a cache of heart-felt and reflective songs reminiscent of The Glow Part II. A drastic change from 2002’s epic tale of Mount Eerie, we find Elverum playing acoustic pop songs with the bare minimum backing of instrumentation. Kyle Field (Little Wings) and Calvin Johnson (Dub Narcotic Sound System) join Elverum on “Universe Conclusion” and “I Love You So Much.” “Climb Over” features The Mools as the backing band. Critical acclaim: “Not since Guided by Voices’ Alien Lanes have so many unique pieces of melody and music merged to form something this unexpectedly chilling and yet ultimately comforting.” Amplifier Magazine ALSO AVAILABLE by THE MICROPHONES: Don’t Wake Me Up CD/LP (K Records) KLP099 It Was Hot, We Stayed In The Water CD (K Records) KLP116 The Glow Pt.

New England glows with honest songs and the joy of working with friends. K compatriots Calvin Johnson, Khaela Maricich of the Blow, Adam Forkner of Yume Bitsu/[[VVRRSNN]], Mirah and Elvrum all contribute to the music and the loose, inspired arrangements. After completely finishing an album in 2002 Anderson decided to return to the studio in the summer of 2003 and re-record the best songs from his last year of performing. The result is Jason at his finest: songs with an evolved writing style and obvious maturity. The off-the-cuff, "first take" sessions were so transcendent that Phil even donated a new Mount Eerie song, "Thanksgiving", to the project, as it was recorded with the same pick-up band and was in line with the album's vision and emotional timbre. "You Fall” is an inspired duet between Anderson and Elvrum, their voices intertwining through the melancholy anthem's sublime production. The song flows seamlessly into "A Book Laid On Its Binding"--a song written by Jason's good friend and tour mate Joe Knapp, of Omaha's Son, Ambulance. It consists of nothing more than piano, Jason, and the golden, heartbreaking voice of Mirah.

Ex: http://sciencereligionmyth.blogspot.com Apollo’s name has no clear parallels in other Indo-European languages, and he is the only Olympian god whose name does not figure on the Linear B tablets (a word fragment on a Cnossus tablet has been read as a form of his name, but the reading is highly conjectural and has convinced few scholars). The absence may well be significant. We possess well over a thousand texts that come from the palaces of Thebes in Boeotia, Mycenae, and Pylus in the Peloponnese, Cnossus and Chania on Crete, that is from practically the entire geographical area of the Mycenaean world, with the exception of the west coast of Asia Minor. Only a fraction contains information on religion, not only the names of gods and their sanctuaries, but also month names that preserve a major festival and personal names that contain a divine name (so-called theophoric names); but the sample is large enough to preserve almost all major Greek divine names.

  • 6 YEARS Written and Directed by Hannah Fidell
    ! 6 YEARS Written and Directed by Hannah Fidell ! Starring Taissa Farmiga and Ben Rosenfield 80 minutes, color, U.S.A. Sales Contact: ICM/ Jessica Lacy [email protected] / (310) 550-4316 SUBMARINE/ Josh Braun [email protected] / (212) 625-1410 Press Contact: BRIGADE / Gerilyn Shur [email protected] / 917-551-5838 SYNOPSIS A young couple in their early 20s, Dan and Melanie, have known each other since childhood. Now their 6-year romantic relationship is put to the test when Dan receives an attractive job offer from the record label with whom he interns, and he must choose between a move forward and a future with Mel. Growth and temptation happen – but will their relationship remain part of their future? Writer/director Hannah Fidell explores the struggles of young love as it begins to face the next steps into adulthood. Taissa Farmiga and Ben Rosenfield give warm, genuine performances as Mel and Dan, alongside Lindsay Burdge (star of Fidell’s A TEACHER) as a colleague of Dan’s who entices him in more ways than one. HANNAH FIDELL DISCUSSES 6 YEARS I wrote 6 Years focusing on the relationship of two young adults. Who hasn’t had a first love? And who hasn’t gone through a breakup with said first love? (for those of you who are married to that first person...please ignore…) More than anything though, I modeled Dan and Mel’s world on my group of friends in college. Although, the fighting and the physical violence, that was pure fiction. The script was in great hands with Taissa and Ben.

    Thu 13 May 6.30-8.30pm Five Bodies Live transcript KEYWORDS language, feel, contemporary, mother, form, conversation, sound SPEAKERS Sofia Lemos, Maureen N. McLane, Jack Thacker, Mirene Arsanios, Lila Matsumoto Sofia Lemos 00:04 Good evening folks. Welcome. My name is Sofia Lemos, I’m the Curator of Public Programmes and Research at Nottingham contemporary and tonight it is my pleasure welcoming you to Five Bodies, our online poetry programme. For those of you who are tuning in for the first time, Nottingham Contemporary works with artists, with academics, with thinkers, poets, to reflect on how research and practice intertwine in contemporary art and visual culture. Our public programmes and to understand how sensing, feeling, knowing might support different world-making narratives. So, this evening is the last session of our year-long poetry series, which looks at how creative critical practices of attention, invention, and experimentation might help us develop new sensibilities. The programme welcomes some unexpected pairings, drifts, but most importantly, it welcomes multiple voices to reflect on how poetics is not the recognised or given modalities of form, but it’s a practice that welcomes creative critical practice, hybrid methodologies and experimental thinking. So, Five Bodies was imagined in conjunction with my colleague Sarah Jackson at Nottingham Contemporary, pardon, at Nottingham Trent University, who has led the Critical Research, the Critical Poetics Research Group since 2015, and with her, I also want to thank my colleagues Jack Thacker and Olivia Ahearne for their support in putting together this year-long poetry series. I’d like to take this opportunity to show our gratitude to tonight’s poets Mirene Arsanios, Lila Matsumoto, and Maureen N.

    PRESERVATION HALL JAZZ BAND A TUBA TO CUBA CD / LP SP1310 RELEASE DATE: NOVEMBER 29TH, 2019 About Preservation Hall Jazz Band: At a moment when musical streams are crossing with unprecedented frequency, it’s crucial to remember that throughout its history, New Orleans has been the point at which sounds and cultures from around the world converge, mingle, and resurface, transformed by the Crescent City’s inimitable spirit and joie de vivre. Nowhere is that idea more vividly embodied than in the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, which has held the torch of New Orleans music aloft for more than 50 years, all the while carrying it enthusiastically forward as a reminder that the history they were founded to preserve is a vibrantly living history. Preservation Hall Jazz Band recently signed with Sub Pop Records, who are re-releasing the band’s 2013 album That’s It! (over 39,000 copies sold) and 2017’s So It Is on June 28th, with new music to follow. The legendary Preservation Hall Jazz Band present the soundtrack to A Tuba to Cuba, the critically acclaimed documentary directed by T.G. Herrington and Danny TRACKLISTING: 1. Yesteryear Clinch.
