Ciara feat. Young Jeezy - Never Ever
I like the dreamy, gauzy mid-tempo stuff on the album better than the upbeat dance tracks, but it's worth a listen all the way through - lots of intricate off-beat sounds (sez the techno fan). Can't figure out what happened to "Click/Flash" though, I genuinely assumed that was a single? XD;; The problem with downloading all one's music off the flist.
DJ Rolando and The Aztec Mystic - Nights of the Jaguar
Carl Craig @ MUTEK, circa... 3:30AM? The track went on for twenty minutes. I was hanging over the barrier - first time I remember there being a barrier for an electronica/dance gig at Metropolis - the light show was out of this world. Carl Craig is basically a Jedi. Read a review afterward by some blogger dude who was like "I recognized nothing but [obscure techno track I'd never heard of]!" and I was like, "......other than 'I Feel Love'?"
Also, LOL TRENTEMØLLER PAKURI.
Laura Marling - Night Terror
I saw Laura Marling on a triple bill with Johnny Flynn and Mumford and Sons last October, as part of a Pop Montreal showcase I never wrote up afterward. The gig was held on the third floor of the local MASONIC LODGE, in this big hall full of carved throne-like benches and a trompe-l'oeil perspective altarpiece painting of guardian statues in a Greco-Egyptian temple under the starlight. The folkie kids came onstage and told stories about flickering single lightbulbs casting shadows on the is-it-an-altar? in the dressing room. They were seriously freaked out. Laura and Johnny were both very blond and fluffy and young-seeming and dreadfully bullied by their bands. XD;
The violin on this song rocked live. And there's more than one video treatment.
Martha Wainwright - New York, New York, New York
A minor psychogeographical epic - Saint Etienne would grok this. One of my favorite Martha Wainwright tracks from I don't know where. I've only been to New York once in the fall, when I was fifteen, but that was when I learnt to like it.
Too tired, next batch tomorrow. XD;
