Daft Punk:Musique Vol 1: 1993-2005

Saturday, July 29, 2006


It was one of music’s most unlikely happenings – two upper-middle-class kids conquering clubland. Especially as they were French. But when Thomas Bangalter and Guy- Manuel de Homem- Christo dropped debut album ‘Homework’, brimming with hard-but-commercial tunes,
they racked up two million sales. 2001’s ‘One More Time’ remains their perfect moment – cute dance pop that bubbled with the energy and sunshine of FM rock, yet there are many fi ne moments here. This isn’t the end for Daft Punk and with dance music dozing, it’s time for them to come and save it.

The Charlatans - Simpatico

Maybe i was late to post this album but anyway, i'm writing now.

Oasis, Dickie Ashcroft, Embrace and now this – Britpop refuses to pack its bags and leave. Unlike their peers, The Charlatans have always been prepared to try something different – witness Tim Burgess’ recent employment of falsetto on his patchy solo album ‘I Believe’.

This time, the Charlies explore ska (‘For Your Entertainment’) and Hard-Fi-goes-disco (‘When The Lights Go Out In London’) to decent effect. However, it’s at its best on the likes of ‘Blackened Blue Eyes’, which – with its driving pianos, pulsing drums and stoned vocals – is a cousin of their classic ‘One To Another’, while the harmonicadriven stomp of ‘City Of The Dead’ will bring the parka brigade out of the closet. ‘Simpatico’ then: not by any means a falsetto dawn.

The Sleepy Jackson:Personality (New Album!)

Friday, July 28, 2006

Rating:8/10
MM Album Review

Is it possible feeling peaceful melodies with New album of Sleepy Jackson?

Short reminding: They were an alternative rock band from Perth, Western Australia.
After The Sleepy Jackson's debut album "lovers",We're singing again great pop guitar
tunes with Sleepy Jackson.

It's not weird to memorialize Mercury Rev when you're listening their
"God Lead Your Soul" and also it's their debut single.

After giving a listen to "You Needed More","Devil Was In My Yard",
"God Lead Your Soul" i don't regret to saying 'Perfect alternative rock tunes'.It can clear all side effects of a bad album.Sure your face is becoming
beautiful,colourful guitar effects.The lush strings, horns, backing vocals
won't end until the end of album,be careful!-if you like guitar pop bands,
you'll adore this album.Emotional song 'Miles Away' which song takes you from your place and you feel you're flying.Plus this album hasn't got only three good song,every song of the album is worth to listen.That's for sure you'll catch one melody and drive into it like i do.I was playing "Play A Little Bit For Love",and my friend asked 'who is singing this song?'.As i said their songs become
obsession,don't be surprised if you can't stop playing a song from Personality every day!

Top of the senses:Miles Away,Higher than hell (this songs will take you to high)

One of my word is enough to describe the album 'Magical' like George Harrison
or Mercury Rev's music where we can see same impact...They also influenced from the Beach Boys.

So,it's really possible to feel peace with this rock band.
Other names can be an alternative choice with this record:
Mojave 3
James Dean Bradfield
picks:Miles Away,Devil Was In My Yard,Play A Little Bit For Love,Dream on

Bruce Springsteen - Devils & Dust

album of the day
Devils & Dust
is the thirteenth studio album by Bruce Springsteen, and his third folk album (after Nebraska and The Ghost of Tom Joad, respectively).

The songs "Long Time Comin'" and "The Hitter" were written and performed during Springsteen's solo tour for The Ghost of Tom Joad in 1996.

Springsteen received five Grammy Award nominations for this work, three for the song "Devils & Dust", Song of the Year, Best Rock Song, and Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance, and two for the album as a whole, Best Contemporary Folk Album and Best Long Form Music Video. His sole award came for Best Solo Rock Vocal, an award he garnered in previous years for "Code of Silence" and "The Rising".

Tortoise & Bonnie Prince Billy The brave and the bold

Cover Cover Cover

"The Brave And The Bold" is one of the best cover album of this year.Debut single was amazing from this record
Thunder Road (Bruce Springsteen).I didn't realize that it was a Bruce Springsteen's Thunder Road when i was listening the first time.Devo,Lungfish,Milton Nascimento and more covered artists.

Daniel (Elton John) and The Calvary Cross (Richard Thompson) were being covered very emotional by Tortoise & Bonnie Prince Billy.This isn't not a clear indie album because of the Tortoise.They're master experimantel scene."It's Expected I'm Gone (The Minutemen)" opening of the song is like drill sound.How creative is this fu**ing great song?Skillful and
intelligent musical combinations are some of the reason to give this
album a ten point.

We can also say definitive to these works."Some Say's (I Got Devil) (Melanie)"
sadness,Cravo É Canela's craziness,The beauty of Thunder Road...
Give it a listen if you like to listen post-rock/experimental,indie Rock.
You won't be disappointed.

Keane - Under The Iron Sea (2006)

Tuesday, July 25, 2006

Rating:6.7/10
MM Album Review
A new album by British rock band Keane after their debut brit rock album "Hopes and Fears".
"Atlantic" which has a wanderful era also piano and atmosperic melodies.
Vocals are so concordant with the musics in this song.Maybe a little dark and
depressive but that doesn't mean it's lousy.

"Is It Any Wonder" is a glittering song which is changing the ambiance quickly
after dark keybords(Atlantic).Its video was directed by Kevin Godley, he had worked for The Police and Duran Duran music videos in the mid-1980s.

The title of the album is derived from the lyric "I lost my heart. I buried it too deep under the iron sea," which appears in the eighth song, "Crystal Ball".

Again Tempo is slowing with "Nothing In My Way".This is good choice because i love
to go down and up.Miserable and happiness are in balance.If you were happy
in your life i think it'd be boring or if you were always sad that would be teribble
again.Balance is so important while you're recording an album.

So this record is bringing good piano combinations."Under The iron sea" is a sparkling
brit pop album which you shouldn't miss.Tom Chaplin is a good singer and maybe
you can find same tunes with U2 or the manics but you find some influences in
every albums or every artist.It can sound like U2 but doesn't matter.Because
this album is much better than U2's How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb(because they
had tried new things).They were very succesful with their debut "Hopes and Fears"
They could do same thing again but They didn't.Especially,pianos are Great.
picks:A Bad Dream,Crystal Ball,Atlantic

Nirvana - hormoaning

Steve Miller Band - Children Of The Future

album of the day
A psychedelic blues rock-out, 1968's Children of the Future marked Steve Miller's earliest attempt at the ascent that brought him supersonic superstardom. Recorded at Olympic Studios in London with storied producer Glyn Johns at the helm, the set played out as pure West Coast rock inflected with decade-of-love psychedelia but intriguingly cloaked in the misty pathos of the U.K. blues ethic. Though bandmate Boz Scaggs contributed a few songs, the bulk of the material was written by Miller while working as a janitor at a music studio in Texas earlier in the year. The best of his efforts resonate in a side one free-for-all that launches with the keys and swirls of the title track and segues smoothly through "Pushed Me Through It" and "In My First Mind," bound for the epic, hazy, lazy, organ-inflected "The Beauty of Time Is That It's Snowing," which ebbs and flows in ways that are continually surprising.

The Kooks - Inside In Insideout

Sunday, July 23, 2006

'Inside In/Inside Out' is the debut album by Brighton-basedscuzz-pop merchants The Kooks. Combining the raucous energyof early-Kinks with the up-for-it pop know-how of Supergrass might sound like a tall order, but Luke Pritchard and Co. have pulled it off with aplomb, making for an exciting and accessible debut effort. Includes the singles 'Sofa Song' and'You Don't Love Me'.

The Kooks are one of those bands who have been hyped up far too much for they're own good, and plastered everywhere in magazines and on the radio. This automaticaly made me stay away as usually I hate all that indie rubbish. But my sister bought the album the other day and I have since listened to it a few times... I was a bit suprised really, its a lot better than I thought. The first thing that came to mind is that it reminded me of Supergrass' I Should Coco. It's youthful and fun with similar happy, upbeat songs, the only thing that's missing is great sounding organs on every track, but you can't have everything I guess.

Devendra banhart - Cripple crow

Devendra Banhart's fourth album is his most pretty and accessible. It's lush, warm, and inviting. It's likely to make the uber-talented singer-songwriter new fans; unfortunately, it's just as likely to cost him a few old ones. The man is clearly a complex individual capable of visionary music that causes the listener to question many things, including whether or not the artist is putting him or her "on." As the moment-defining, awesome, and potentially self-parodic cover image implies, Mr. Banhart went to great lengths to enshroud himself with some of his most talented friends: Adam Forkner of White Rainbow, Andy Cabic of Vetiver, the free-folk band Feathers, and producer Thom Monahan among them. But this is no freak-fest; the album is subdued, and very much on an early ‘70s tip. Recorded at Bearsville near Woodstock, NY, there are touches of Gilberto Gil,! George Harrison, Donovan, T. Rex, Randy Newman and Bobby Charles.

MM picks Sunday songs:
Santa Maria Da Feira
Maybe you don't understand the lyrics but it's not important if the subject is music.So,we may think and we may correct music is universal."Pensando Enti" proves what i say about a foreign language song.It doesn't lose any influence by its lyrics.On the other hand it's a very deep and humid song.But however it makes you feel great emotions,happiness,nostalgia.It's hard to characterize this song whic you should listen this sunday.Great Psychedelic folk composition.
