On tour with Shawn Mullins Alternative Press recommends Good Old War WHY YOU SHOULD KNOW THEM: Anthony Green’s backing band - with their intricate acoustic arrangements and perfect three-part harmonies - are throwbacks to a time when music was made by musicicans huddled around a single microphone. YOU LIKE? YOU’LL LIKE: Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young / Fleet Foxes / Simon & Garfunkel Change was blowing his way, but Keith Goodwin didn’t know it. In the spring of 2005, the pop-punk outfit he’d help create, Days Away, were an internet buzz band with a debut album on Fueled By Ramen. But 18 months later, the band unceremoniously announced they were no longer on the label’s roster and shortly afterwards called it quits. It’s a sad and all-too-common tale, but one that takes an unexpected plot twist. “A lot of pop-punk bands are started when [the members] are really young, and you tend to grow into other stuff,” explains the vocalist and guitarist. “With Days Away, we all just wanted to play loud and crazy, but I’ve also always wanted to do stuff that was more acoustic and focused on vocals.” When Goodwin and Days Away drummer Tim Arnold found themselves suddenly without a full-time band, they were free to follow this new yet not-so-new musical direction. They enlisted their friend, Unlikely Cowboy frontman Dan Schwartz, to play bass and provide vocals, thus forming Good Old War - an unabashed ode to the delicate sounds and intricate harmonies of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and Simon & Garfunkel. “It’s a group of people getting together and being able to jam whenever, wherever and just enjoy singing,” says Goodwin. “It’s not about how crazy we can be, [it’s about] focusing on the vocals and the harmonies.” Shortly after becoming a unit, Good Old War were enlisted by their friend Anthony Green to back him on his first solo album, Avalon. (“They’re my favorite band,” says Green. “I feel like I live inside their songs.”) The band also traveled with Green to last spring’s South By Southwest and Bamboozle festivals before venturing on their own to Los Angeles in May to lay down their debut, Only Way To Be Alone, with producer Rick Parker (who also produced Days Away’s final EP, Ear Candy For The Head Phone Trippers). “We did all the music live,” says Goodwin. “We took a month or two and just jammed out a bunch of songs and figured out how to play every single thing we wanted to put on the record. Then all three of us sang around one microphone together. And that was it.” Aside from performing the sort of throwback songs that haven’t been on the FM airwaves (aside from classic-rock stations) for three decades, the trio are focused on something else that hasn’t been prevalent in rock music since then - fun. “Every night, everybody I’m playing with is singing together and having a good time,” says Goodwin. At the time of this interview, that list included Green, since he gave Good Old War an opening spot on his solo tour, putting them in front of audiences of all ages. “People are digging it,” says Goodwin with a laugh. “I find that kids’ parents get really into us.” Jenny Lewis’ live show kills ‘em in Seattle “Jenny Lewis, singer for Rilo Kiley and Conor Oberst, the one-man constant behind Bright Eyes, proved to be an amazing double bill of indie rock Sunday night. The pair more or less left a sold-out crowd at the Showbox at the Market floored after nearly three hours of rock, country and singer-songwriter bliss. Lewis set them up with her beautiful, sultry vocals and Oberst, who was backed by the spectacular Mystic Valley Band, knocked them down with his heartfelt lyrics and a few rocking covers. Lewis began her set with "Happy," a lazy, upbeat number. After the first verse it was immediately clear while a capable five-piece band accompanied her, Lewis' voice was the most powerful instrument on stage. That was also evident during "Acid Tongue" when band members stepped away from their instruments and backed Lewis with harmonies while she sang with the spotlight all to herself. She picked things up a bit during "See Fernando," "Carpetbaggers," (sang as a duet with guitarist Johnathan Rice) and the near nine-minute epic "Last Messiah." The energy during the latter was practically palpable with the three-part song shifting gears from soft and slow to heavy and fast within seconds. Lewis sexily swayed and shook her body throughout her 12-song set that could have easily been headlining material.” - Seattle Post-Intelligencer For up-to-the-minute AAA news...

  • Wzmacniacz Zintegrowany Goldenote S-1 Cena
    Wzmacniacz zintegrowany Goldenote S-1 Cena: 4799 zł Dystrybucja: Moje Audio Kontakt: Powstańców Śląskich 118, 53-333 Wrocław tel/fax: (71) 336 52 67 tel. kom.: 606 276 001, 790 425 142 e-mail: [email protected] Strona producenta: Goldenote Tekst: Krzysztof Kalinkowski Podczas poprzedniego testu (zestaw Lector – TUTAJ) wspomniałem, że wiele urządzeń testowanych przez „High Fidelity” pochodzi z Włoch. I jakoś tak się porobiło, że w moje ręce trafił kolejny włoski produkt, zintegrowany wzmacniacz Goldenote S-1. To pokazuje naprawdę, jak wiele urządzeń audio pochodzących z tego kraju jest dostępnych u nas w Polsce. Myślę, że wśród nich, każdy może znaleźć coś dla siebie, na wielu półkach cenowych i jakościowych, i wiele osób będzie z takiego wyboru zadowolonych. Szczególnie, że są to w większości produkty oferujące „bardzo wiele za stosunkowo niewiele”. Ale myślę, że o tym zdążyli się już Państwo przekonać czytając wcześniejsze testy, lub słuchając samodzielnie produktów oferowanych przez włoskich producentów. S-1 to najtańszy wzmacniacz oferowany przez firmę Akamai (tym razem pod nazwą Goldenote), prowadzoną przez Maurizio Ateriniego (na zdjęciu podczas wystawy High End 2008 w Monachium). Produkty tej firmy znam dość dobrze – przez pewien czas miałem w swoim systemie odtwarzacz Koala Tube, miałem też okazję zapoznać się odtwarzaczem plików DSS-30 (test Naczelnego TUTAJ) oraz inną elektroniką z linii Blacknote (test TUTAJ). Znam też, choć już nieco gorzej, ponieważ nie słuchałem ich w swoim systemie, źródła analogowe, kolumny i wzmacniacze z serii Demidoff. Moim zdaniem wszystkie te urządzenia potwierdzają regułę, którą przedstawiłem poprzednio, iż Muzyka jest przez nie traktowana priorytetowo. Uprzedzając nieco fakty, powiem, że również testowany wzmacniacz nie jest od niej wyjątkiem.

  • Pop Goes to War, 2001–2004:U.S. Popular Music After 9/11
    1 POP GOES TO WAR, 2001–2004: U.S. POpuLAR MUSIC AFTER 9/11 Reebee Garofalo Mainstream popular music in the United States has always provided a window on national politics. The middle-of-the-road sensibilities of Tin Pan Alley told us as much about societal values in the early twentieth century as rock and roll’s spirit of rebellion did in the fifties and sixties. To cite but one prominent example, as the war in Vietnam escalated in the mid-sixties, popular music provided something of a national referendum on our involvement. In 1965 and 1966, while the nation was sorely divided on the issue, both the antiwar “Eve of Destruction” by Barry McGuire and the military ode “The Ballad of the Green Berets” by Barry Sadler hit number one within months of each other. As the war dragged on through the Nixon years and military victory seemed more and more remote, however, public opinion began to turn against the war, and popular music became more and more clearly identified with the antiwar movement. Popular music—and in particular, rock—has nonetheless served con- tradictory functions in American history. While popular music fueled opposition to the Vietnam War at home, alienated, homesick GIs eased the passage of time by blaring those same sounds on the battlefield (as films such as Apocalypse Now and Good Morning, Vietnam accurately document). Rock thus was not only the soundtrack of domestic opposition to the war; it was the soundtrack of the war itself. This phenomenon was not wasted on military strategists, who soon began routinely incorporat- ing music into U.S.
