La Monte Young was a primary influence on Minimalism, the Fluxus movement and performance art through his legendary compositions of extended time durations and the development of just intonation and rational number based tuning systems. With wife and collaborator, artist Marian Zazeela, they would formulate the composite sound environments of the Dream House. Seeing reissue for the first time since its initial 1969 release, Young and Zazeela's first full-length album is often referred to as »The Black Record« due to Zazeela's stunning cover design, complete with the composer's liner notes in elegant hand-lettered script.
Search:the young p
None other than Blawan on his lonesome ownsome — after collaborations with Pariah as Karenn, and Surgeon as Trade — returning to the blood-drenched scene of his heinous Why They Hide Their Bodies.
New name, new sound; heavier and slower than his Ternesc output. The title track is the banger. Acid techno — deliberate, widescreen and ominous.
For several years now, Young Kulcha has been establishing himself as the favourite of European sound systems. The young German-Congolese artist sets dub and reggae parties alight with his sharp lyrics and voice reminiscent of some of the most admired reggae artists such as Hugh Mundell, Dennis Brown and Garnett Silk.
With ‘More Work To Be Done’, Young Kulcha presents a track that encourages younger generations to remain optimistic and resilient despite the difficult times our societies are going through. Accompanied by the exceptional Swiss studio band The 18th Parallel, ‘More Work To Be Done’ plunges us straight into a Jamaican sound system party from the early 1980s, where the combination of Roots Radics and Scientist would have shaken the neighbourhood with their unparalleled heavy sound. With a dub B-side by Westfinga, the new European generation pays tribute to Jamaican legends with this musical bombshell!

John Paul Youngs Karriere erreichte mit der Veröffentlichung von „Love Is in the Air“ 1977 (international) und 1978 (Australien) ihren internationalen Durchbruch. Die von Harry Vanda und George Young
geschriebene Disco-Pop-Hymne wurde zu einem weltweiten Phänomen. Die B-Seite wurde seit 1992 nicht
mehr veröffentlicht (und war der Titelsong in Baz Luhrmanns Film „Strictly Ballroom“), was diese Vinyl-LP
zu einem echten Sammlerstück macht.

Having taken their name from a line in Hooray For Hollywood – inspired by the song’s jarring use in Robert Altman’s Philip Marlowe detective movie The Long Goodbye – there is an aptly cinematic quality to Any Young Mechanic’s music.
With intricate scenes, enthralling narratives and unique characters cropping up across the lyrics, and a kaleidoscopic yet coherently interwoven spectrum of moods and emotions stretching through the music, the Adelaide five-piece bring a fresh language to folk music’s natural propensity to spin a good yarn.
So rather than offering borrowed references illuminated by the cosy flickers of campfire flames, on their debut album The Modern Shoe Is Ruining The Foot, the Australian band’s urgent songs conjure up vivid, widescreen vistas that blend the genre’s enduring charms with a musical dexterity and sharp vision reaching beyond folk’s usual corners.
“We are trying to make folk music for now,” suggests frontman Sam Wilson. “Turning it on its head in a new, sometimes uncanny way, because we don't want to just do the old thing again. I don't think it’s interesting to make things again, so we’re searching for a contemporary edge.”
The roots of this original yet inclusive approach, in part, go back to the Adelaide music scene that helped to forge Any Young Mechanic.

Post-Punk trifft Camp. Eine der Gründungsmythen von The Smiths besagt, dass die sehr eigenwilligen Charaktere Johnny Marr und Morrissey nur zusammenfinden konnten, weil sich beide anno 1981/82 immerhin auf The Monochrome Set als ihre gemeinsame Lieblingsformation einigen konnten. Diese bereits 1978 gegründete Post-Punk-Band aus Süd-London mit Sänger und Texter Bid vermischt(e) schon immer musikalisch furios Sixties Twist mit brillanten Gitarrenmelodien und textlich exotische Mystik mit gehörigen Portionen Humor und Weltwissen. Und genau hier setzt Bids "Strange Young Alien" als Werkschau seines ungewöhnlichen Schaffens an ... Im ersten Teil erzählt Bid mittels seiner Lyrics und der entsprechenden Kommentare über seine Jugend in Indien, dem Himalaya und Kanada, verrät Interna aus der britischen Musikindustrie und berichtet von seiner dramatischen Aneurysma-Erkrankung. Im zweiten Teil begeben sich Bid und seine zahlreichen Alter Egos quasi auf die Meta-Ebene, auf der die Songtexte mittels amüsanter Hintergrundfakten und exzentrischem Witz analysiert werden. Eine Publikation in englischer Sprache.
Lela Amparo's debut album for Past Inside The Present is a smooth fusion of ambient guitar, IDM, trip-hop rhythms, orchestral arrangements and poetic vocals that draw from her American Southwest roots, international travels, and life in Gothenburg, Sweden. Amparo crafts a raw, worldly sound from these inspirations and mixes cinematic grandeur with tender grace, gorgeous melodies and head-nodding drum programming. Highlights include 'Space Us Out' with its emotional beat and piano loop, and 'You Say You Love' which combines harp and choral voices. 'Rose & Honey' reflects on isolation in Tokyo, while 'Wrong Thing' offers a Burial-style rhythm. Keep Your Soul Young is all about finding home within yourself.

Das Porträt des wahrscheinlich interessantesten Labels der Geschichte des Pop. Veröffentlichung in englischer Sprache. Auch wenn das britische él-Label nur in den Jahren von 1984 bis 1988 existierte, war sein Einfluss auf alles, was danach kam, immens. él eröffnete den Zugang zu einem musikalischen Paralleluniversum, in dem Lederjacken, Tattoos, Macker- und Muckertum verpönt waren, und leistete so beispielsweise einer dringend notwendigen Feminisierung des zeitgenössischen Pop Vorschub. Gegründet von Mike Alway, der in den frühen Achtzigern für das ebenfalls legendäre Cherry-Red-Label Bands wie Everything But The Girl und Felt entdeckte, verschmolz él den Bubblegum-Style der Sixties mit französisch geprägtem Kammerpop, Humor in der Tradition eines Oscar Wildes und der epischen Breite eines Film-Soundtracks zu einem ganz besonderen Juwel in der Schatztruhe musikalischer Extravaganz. Mark Goodall positioniert in "Bright Young Things" das Label in seinem historischen Kontext, führt in Koautorenschaft mit Mike Alway Interviews mit der Mehrzahl der beteiligten Künstler*innen und würdigt die wichtigsten Veröffentlichungen von èl.
