Canaille's choice 28/12/2012

"Williams isn't just eccentric, she's wacky as hell with her songwriting. Her muses are contortionists who ramble - sometimes it's nonsense and sometimes it's something a little less nonsensical. They are strange and they couldn't care what anyone else thinks about it. There's probably no chance that it could be changed anyway. She makes her songs wonderful abstractions of fantastical imagery and the kind of drifting focus that allows them to bend in many directions, never filling in the blanks in the ways that you'd ever suspect. You can just let yourself feel like a loon as you sing along. It's escapism and you can and should do it in your underwear. It is the default setting".

Canaille's choice 24/12/2012

Χρόνια πολλά!

"Once again, Finders Keepers Records is given unparalleled access to the EMI Pakistan vaults to bring you Life Is Dance, the follow-up to 2010's critically acclaimed groundbreaking Lollywood cinematic pop compendium The Sound Of Wonder! Here you'll find fuzzy, scuzzy, twang-happy, spaced-out and funked up Urdu-grooves complete with harmonium melodies and driven by some of the most random factor, freakish, finger numbing, percussion that the South East Asian mainstream has ever had to offer. Above all, Lollywood soundtracks sound RAW! Re-imagine some of the most action packed Bollywood productions (which Lollywooders actively did) then fire the make-up department, take away the special effects budget and then improvise. The lack of gloss on a dusty Pakistani mini-lp makes for truly experimental Eastern pop music".

Song Of The Day 24/12/2012


Poverty's Paradise - The 24-Carat Black

Lenia’s choice 24/12/2012

The 5.6.7.8’s are an all-female Japanese rock trio, whose music is reminiscent of American surf music, rockabilly and garage rock. They made a brief appearance in the 2003 Quentin Tarantino film “Kill Bill Volume 1”. Χρόνια πολλά!
