  • JOON MOON « Call Me EP »
    JOON MOON « Call Me EP » Sortie le 1 Avril 2016 Digital & LP Pop - Soul - Alternative Kwaidan Records/ !K7 Artwork/H5 – Photos/ Emmanuel Noyon L’histoire de Joon Moon débute en 2014 à Montmartre à Paris, dans le studio du trop discret Julien Decoret - avec Phoebe Killdeer à ses cotés pour insuffler les premiers textes de Joon Moon - , par le désir d’aller au-delà des tournées avec Nouvelle Vague, Florent Marchet etc … et de construire son propre projet. La direction artistique piano , voix , batterie étant affinée, Julien intègre ses deux comparses Raphael Chassin et Sébastien Trouvé pour l’enregistrement studio comme pour le live qu’ils imaginent tous déjà. Au début de l’année 2015, par le hasard des rencontres et des connexions artistiques avec Marc Collin ou Hugh Coltman , Julien Decoret rencontre Krystle Warren , tout aussi discrète que lui , une autre artiste de live incontournable , originaire de Kansas City et installée en France depuis peu. Des amis en communs , quelques essais studio plus tard , et un mal-entendu à propos d’une certaine Alice / Juliette Lewis (qui fait sourire tout le monde encore aujourd’hui) auront fini par créer une vraie synergie entre nos quatre comparses pour créer Joon Moon tant en studio que pour la scène. Ce second EP « Calle Me » qui arrive après leur passage aux USA fin mars 2016 notamment à SXSW , dessine un mélange pop et soul aux arrangements voluptueux et envoutant, et assure à l’album prévu pour octobre 2016 de devenir une riche découverte et de toucher un public large. Le 1er EP tourne encore sur les ondes un peu partout dans le monde que ce soit sur KCRW, BBC2/3/6/, France Inter , FIP, Couleur 3 , Flux FM et bien d’autres encore… La voix de Krystle Warren vous fera chavirer sur les compositions de Joon Moon, on ne s’interdit pas de l’écouter en boucles.

  • 1 Trinity Church in the City of Boston the Rev. Morgan S. Allen October
    Trinity Church in the City of Boston The Rev. Morgan S. Allen October 25, 2020 II Stewardship, Matthew 22:34-46 Come Holy Spirit, and enkindle in the hearts of your faithful, the fire of your Love. Amen. Stephin Merritt and Claudia Gonson spent the summer of 1983 sitting on “The Wall,” the red brick relief behind the Harvard Square subway station. Merritt, a graduate of The Cambridge School of Weston, met Gonson, a Concord Academy graduate, during their high-school years.i The pair first bonded over Gonson’s David Bowie Songbook for the piano, beginning a four- decade musical partnership, most notably in the band, The Magnetic Fields. In Strange Powers, a 2010 documentary about Merritt and the group, Gonson recalls of that summer: “We would sit there on ‘The Wall’ with many punk rockers of varying types of mohawk length … kids whose names were like, ‘Toby Skinhead,’ and ‘Phlegm.’ Complete freedom, total vagrancy – it was awesome.”ii Despite these fond roots, The Magnetic Fields’ music does not neatly fit a punk’s jambox, and neither does Merritt’s unconventional, often sardonic verse rest easy in effete prep school classrooms. The band’s primary live instruments include piano, ukulele, cello, and banjo, and their studio albums incorporate unusual noisemakers (kitchen whisks and frog-callers, among others) and long-unfashionable electronica sounds.iii Yet, sometimes, their quirk, cleverness, and brilliance, click. For my ear and heart, this happens most often in their musically sparest and lyrically simplest efforts, and my favorite of their catalogue borrows on that most common of song titles: “The Book of Love.” In a deep, unemotive baritone, Merritt imagines what sort of tome that compendium would be.iv He sings: The book of love is long and boring [And] No one can liFt the … thing It’s full of charts, and facts and figures, and instructions for dancing.

(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X Perspectives of Women Victims of Wealthy Batterers: Is Justice Served? By Diana Bruns Southeast Missouri State University, United States Abstract- While domestic violence occurs in all demographical realms (races, ethnicities, classes, educational levels), research has been limited regarding wealthy batterers. Although domestic abuse is more visible in lower-class communities, abuse in high socio-economic classes remains hidden. Qualitative data from 12 survivors of wealthy and/or affluent batterers defined asupper middle class or upper class examines perspectives of victims of wealthy batterers to investigate if and how such victims face injustices due to the batterer’s wealth and prominence in the communities in which they live. As additional research is conducted on wealthy batterers, police, prosecutors, and judges may provide better treatment and protection, as they too, will become better prepared in dealing with wealthy and powerful batterers and minimize injustices or prejudice to toward the victims.

  • Miniaturhymnen
    # 2013/34 dschungel https://jungle.world/artikel/2013/34/miniaturhymnen Platte Buch Miniaturhymnen Von Michael Saager <none> Was macht der amerikanische Songwriter Stephin Merritt, wenn er gerade keine zauberhafte Lo-Fi-Pop-Platte für sein Lieblingsprojekt, die sagenhaften The Magnetic Fields, einspielt? Dann schreibt der Mann mit dem herzergreifend charismatischen Brummbariton möglicherweise zauberhafte Electropop-Songs für sein anderes Lieblingsprojekt, die sagenhaften Future Bible Heroes, deren drittes Album »Partygoing« kürzlich erschienen ist. Auf »Partygoing«, wie auch auf den beiden zuvor ver­öffentlichten Alben der 1995 gegründeten Future Bible Heroes, hält Merritt sich fern von der Vielzahl an Instrumenten, die er sonst zu spielen pflegt. Und überlässt zwar nicht das Schreiben der Songs und das Texten augenzwinkernd misanthropischer Gemeinheiten, wohl aber das Instrumentieren und Arrangieren der melancholischen Miniaturhymnen dem Einfallsreichtum von Keyboarder Chris Ewen. Ewen hat ein kaum zu überhörendes Faible für die unterkühlt sehnsuchtsvolle, an großstädtische Verlorenheit und Neonreklame bei Nacht erinnernde 80er-Wavepop-Synthetik, wie man sie von OMD, den frühen Neon Judgement und von Human League kennt. Merritt wiederum teilt sich den Gesang mit Claudia Gonson, deren Stimme bei weitem nicht so ätherisch-sexy klingt wie die von Merritts Magnetic-Fields-Partnerin Shirly Simms. Macht aber nichts, Gonsons Gesang ist nämlich auch toll, ihr Timbre dunkler, herber, wissender. Eine kluge Frau, bei der Geheimnisse aller Art gut aufgehoben wären. Jedenfalls hört sie sich so an.

Each of these 11 tributes to Bob Hurwitz was written for an audience of one on a particular Steinway in a specific Upper West Side living room. And yet here they are, making their way into the wider world. None are loftily ambitious or daringly experimental compositions. Rather, each distills an aspect of its author’s voice to a concentrated miniature. The prevailing tone is conversational rather than declamatory, though it’s a wide-ranging conversation. Large questions are posed but rarely answered in full. If the listener has the odd feeling of having stumbled into an exchange between two friends and missing an inside joke or shared reference here and there—that’s not far from the truth. Composers are usually known for works that push extremes of length, complexity, virtuosity, volume, scope, profundity—the St.
