WHAT'S BUZZING: HOLY SHIT! NEW MOON!

post from the WILD honey pie on 20 November 2009 04:00:00 PM. © the WILD honey pie

If you couldn't already tell, there's a bit of sarcasm behind that title. No knocks on New Moon, I'm sure it's good (for twelve year old girls). I find it insane how infatuated people I know have become with the maturing movie franchise. People don't[...]

DIANA ROSS Live DVD on November/ December 2009

post from Music Is My Life - Divas And Other Beings on 20 November 2009 03:58:00 PM. © Music Is My Life - Divas And Other Beings

I found this great Diana Ross news and live reviews on http://www.fullundie.com/
Diana Ross oct 16 Gelredome (Arnhem) Holland
Great voice, great performance. She sang all her hits, no medleys and some songs extended.
Love Child takes 5 minutes and ends in a sort of samba.
I'm Coming Out, My World Is Empty Without You, Stop In The Name Of Love, Where Did Our Love Go, Baby Love, You Can't Hurry Love, I'm Still Waiting, Ease On Down The Road, The Boss, It's My House, Do You Know Where You're Going To, Upside Down, I Will Survive, Ain't No Mountain High Enough, Chain Reaction, Love Hangover, Why Do Fools Fall In Love, I Love You More Todat Than Yesterday, A Brand New Day, Reach Out And Touch to name most of the songs she sang tonight. Together with a big orchestra (great strings) and two fabulous backing singers (they sometimes sounded like the Andantes) a real catch on DVD whet it comes out in november or december. BTW she changes dresses four times :-)

"Loca" is becoming a big hit and is being added to DJ playlists around the world, and we have you guys to thank for that!

To everyone spreading the word and to all DJs spinning the song, thank you so much! You guys rock!

The single was already a breakout on the Billboard Dance chart and is available on Masterbeat (where it has been #1 for many days) and should be available everywhere else (iTunes, Amazon) in a few weeks!

ALEX BLEAKER AND THE FREAKS - SELF-TITLED

post from | NO CONCLUSION | on 20 November 2009 03:21:00 PM. © | NO CONCLUSION |

Underwater Peoples, 2009
A2: Summer, A2: Epilogue, A3: Spring Jam, A4: Animal Tracks, B1: Prisoner of the Past, B2: Dead On, B3: Common Sense, B4: Part 2

Exciting stuff - Underwater Peoples are putting out a record for Alex Bleaker and the Freaks comprising, you've gueessed it, Alex Bleeker of Real Estate, Matt Mondanile (Real Estate, Ducktails), Martin Courtney IV (Real Estate) and Julian Lynch. A better part of it was recorded live in the basement of Julian's childhood home. This also happens to be the label's first full-length release. According to the press kit, "it's as classic and genuine as an adolescents Playboy collection or a fat, bald man in a Red Corvette." If that doesn't intrigue you, don't know what will. We already love these dudes and what they do in their respective bands, so it's interesting to see what they've conjured up in this lineup.

Animal Tracks

It comes out next Friday, but it's available for pre-order at the label's site.

Imaad Wasif “Fangs”

post from The Morning After Pills on 20 November 2009 03:19:00 PM. © The Morning After Pills

imaad-wasif

Having had the privileged of seeing Imaad Wasif up-close and personal at Union Pool during CMJ, I cannot relay accurately enough how tight the sound is at his live show (and how thin he is… like Olive Oyl, he disappears when turning to the side). Like bounce a quarter off the reverb and sip your coffee on the steadiness of the drum line. Below is the video for “Fangs” and he sounded every bit as heavy and mellow that night in the tin can that is Union Pool. Oh, and he shreds, the man can shred. Preview The Voidist, Wasif’s latest offering, here… and then buy a copy. Parce que vous le valez bien — L’Oreal
