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.

spannung im song: das kölner duo steht für sich selbst.

meine zarten pfoten ( my tender paws ) is the eagerly-awaited album by lady ada that everybody s been longing to get a hold of for so long. her second album after debut blondie truly is a revelation. ada has successfully cast off that four-to-the-floor yoke and has recorded songs that go way beyond all our well-known categories, hovering above everything in a state of serene disengagement. it s certainly ppp in its broadest sense, but ultimately it s a work of music that radiates such an amazing warmth and tranquility that it will even sedate the biggest nervous wreck into a state of subtle receptiveness. this record is your friend. it s a shining light of beauty, glowing from the inside. humans have feelings. and it s only the noblest of feelings that these nine songs arouse. after listening to them you’re left with a slightly sheepish smile on your face. and then you press play again

seit 2006 sind devin booze und sarah reynolds als ear pwr unterwegs. ein projekt, das von boozes instrumentierung, reynolds lyrik und dem kreativen zusammenspiel der beiden lebt. boozes ausbildung an dem von bob moog gegründeten music technology program an der universität von nordkarolina liefert das klangfundament, auf dem ear pwr errichtet wurde. mittels einiger alter synthesizer und reichlich perkussion schaffen die zwei dicht gewobene klangstrukturen. das bescherte der band nicht nur eine einladung zu dem von animal collective kuratierten atp festival in england im mai 2011, sondern auch eine us- und europatour mit ihren labelmates toro y moi. ear pwr , das zweite album des duos, wickelt die soundgespinste des 2009er-debüts weiter und offenbart dabei ein reichhaltiges set von klangkonturen. entstanden im heimischen nordkarolina ist ear pwr so freudvoll wie beruhigend, so sentimental wie neugierig.

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.

reissue - cass mccombs, singer-songwriter born in northern california in 1977 and currently residing somewhere in that state, is set to release wit’s end, his fifth-and-a-half album and third on domino, on april 11th. the result of two years recording in various homes and studios in california, new york, new jersey and chicago, wit’s end was produced by cass with ariel rechtshaid, with whom he also created catacombs.sounds that conjure the colors purple and black, this is his darkest record to date. it seems he is going deeper into the mania of a man buried alive inside his self-made catacombs, banging the stone walls, crying to be let out, and enjoying the quiet away from the outside world. however, he is not a man afraid of his own shadow, for in this environment of complete darkness, no shadows can be cast. this is a world of total feeling. here, words become a catalyst away from the slavery of arbitrary thought and toward feeling.
