brian eno und nick cave sind ihr bereits verfallen und die düster rockenden haudegen von grinderman hat die musik der londonerin so fasziniert, dass sie anna calvi als support auf ihrer jüngsten europatour eingeladen haben. dort konnte anna calvi ihr beeindruckendes talent als meisterin morbider musikalität und dramatik und ihre phänomenale bühnenpräsenz beweisen. wie aus einem tarrantino-film entsprungen, steht sie auf der bühne mit ihren rot geschminkten lippen und ihrer gitarre, aus der hochmelodische klänge perlen. boleroesk entwerfen schlagzeug und gitarre immer gewaltigere spannungsbögen, verlieren sich aber nie endgültig im melodischen chaos. denn über ihnen thront und regiert calvis hypnotische stimme.am 14. januar erscheint das gleichnamige debütalbum von anna calvi bei domino, das sie mit rob ellis (u.a. pj harvey) in london und frankreich produziert hat. es ist ein überraschend selbstsicheres debüt, das ihre talente als songwriterin, gitarristin und sängerin auf zehn songs gleichermaßen beeindruckend vorstellt.

das debütalbum der gruppe von januar 1967 enthält den welthit light my fire und den song the end, der unter anderem durch den film apocalypse now wieder bekannt wurde und dessen originalaufnahme teilweise auf plattenaufnahmen wegen seines textes zensiert wurde. dabei handelt es sich um die griechische sagengestalt Ödipus, ein königssohn, der unwissentlich seinen vater tötet, seine mutter heiratet und mit ihr schläft. die textzeilen: „father i want to kill you, mother i want to fuck you“ erschienen der Öffentlichkeit als zu vulgär, wenngleich schon seit jahrtausenden selbige szene in den theatern aufgeführt wurde. weiterhin enthält das album das brecht/weill-lied alabama song.

kieren dickins aka dels is a new type of rapper (which is another way of saying that heãs more than just a rapper). applying the kind of attention to detail, micro-management and macro-vision which jay-z used to build a business empire, dels makes art. popular art mind you, but art all the same, an album of emotional peaks, musical innovation and surreal, brilliant lyrics, held together by such a unique, such a strong vision that it sounds almost silly to suggest itãs just a debut. already causing a stir with the tasters ¶shapeshift÷ and ¶trumpalump÷ (and the videos he masterminded for them), everything is now ready to show how these pieces fit into the bigger picture.

grime has been clawing its way back to the centre of underground uk music in a big way recently, riding a new wave of credibility in futurist iterations from terror danjah, hyperdub, and butterz. but with the rising profile of figures like slackk and the eski-aping sound of becoming real and sometimes jam city, theres been a pseudo-lionization and a growing mythology surrounding classic grime. honestly, its been a long time coming, the music is legendary for a reason. terror danjahs new(ish) hardrive label takes a bold step in 2011 with a sharp look back-ward, and in typically cyclical fashion it feels perfectly now. dating all the way back to 2004, p jams >anger management< is a minimal monster of a tune, slamming with the same slurred and blurred percussive elements of wileys essential >ice rink<.

die nullerjahre des 21. jahrhunderts verbrachte er nach eigenen angaben in einem selbst gew?hlten exil als >would-be folksinger<. lloyd cole, zusammen mit den commotions oder eben solo seit mitte der 80er-jahre eine feste gr®?e im internationalen popzirkus, sehnte sich nach dem spiel mit der band, nach ein wenig rock n roll. die songs dazu hatte er bereits, das geld dazu besorgte er sich von den fans: circa 1000 von ihnen waren bereit, 45 dollar f?r eine de-luxe-version eines albums zu ?berweisen, das von eben diesem geld erst noch eingespielt werden musste. cole rekrutierte eine studioband aus alten und neuen bekannten, u. a. joan wasser alias joan as police woman sowie mark schwaber und matt cullen von coles begleittrio the small ensemble. das ergebnis nennt sich >broken record< und ist das frischste und lebendigste klangerzeugnis, das von lloyd cole seit jahren zu h®ren war. man merkt dem album an, wie gut cole das zusammenspiel mit der band tut, die songs sind auf gewohnt hohem niveau. aus dem would-be folksinger wurde wieder der s?nger einer rock-n-roll-band.

this is a journey into our sound! an album in a reserved spiritual cast, thats complete down to its individual tracks. spin this record any way you please. from a pure jammed out playfulness there grew a sparkling conversation between the winds and those with keys ñ sometimes a rugged funk, others a finely-sensed jazz, and then completely improvised.
