tunesmithery

For all its in-your-face melodramatics and its to-your-gut tunesmanship, the L.A. Opera's take on Puccini's "Tosca" has never yet raised the work

The thunderous riffery, for instance, on the groove-driven stomp of "I Said It" provides a solid foundation for their patented, aggressive style, while Soriano's guttural roar on the fervent "That Day" overwhelms the senses with a heavy dose of dynamics and urgency.

Great lyrics, wonderful tunes-womanship, top-notch collaborations, and far too wonderful to be deemed a diamond in the rough.

Two channels of intercontinental beatsmanship by DJs representing Austin (ACL channel) and parts unknown (OCL).

low bassline workouts from 'Hot get Hotter' and 'Jah Glory' to frigged up break beatery from 'The Return of Sleng', 'Dub of the Sphinx', 'Hustlers Choice',

On past album covers, Dumfries folk troubadress Emily Smith resembles Kate McGarrigle, Celine Dion and Suzanne Vega. On her latest album sleeve, she's turned into Dido. See, like all talented folkies, Smith is a shapeshifter. On her delightful fifth album she goes from McGarrigle to the aforementioned dinner-party-botherer in a few bars. The title track is a countrified number with warm pan pipes and violins, setting the Celtic agenda. Guest fiddler Stuart Duncan provides exemplary work on the uplifting love song 'Take You Home', a heart-shattering tune with the weepy refrain: “Put your hand in mine love, and I will take you home.” Smith is a scholar of the folk genre: the emotion, wit, drama and passion are tools at her command. Regard the timeless piano ballad 'Dreams and Lullabies,' with its tingling triangles and bass fluming along a moonlit plateau, Richard Thompson's smoky lament 'Waltzing's For Dreamers,' or Alan Doherty's flute on the gorgeous 'Sweet Lover of Mine' for examples of knockout beauty. 'Still We Dance On' brings the pathos, 'Butterfly' the ceilidh ruckus, and 'Lord Donald' the flair for interpretation. Ending on the a cappella 'What a Voice,' this is a sublime (if a wee bit long) modern folk record

There are at least five instances of horrific syntaxmanglery in that review, which is why I posted it in its entirety.

someone on etsy should start making and selling troubadresses.

Welcome to the Tunesmith's Forge

The new release Dope Dogs proffers a heady cocktail of roiling rhythms, Hendrixian fretmanship and wild-eyed conspiracy-laced rantings, taking Clinton's peculiar fascination with the four-legged creatures to its illogical extreme. This is a concept album rife with waggish tales.

Andy was awarded Acoustic Guitar Magazines esteemed worldwide silver medal award for his fingerstyle approach. But most fans first exposure to Andy’s guitartistry has been through his youtube presence; the Topeka Kansas native’s 100 million cumulative youtube views puts him in the top 3 most viewed subjects on the site’s storied 7-year history.

Join us at Salt hill Pub in Lebanon for another New Year's Eve party to remember featuring great food, tons of fun, and an all-night dance party featuring SOUL LINE. Something of an Upper Valley "supergroup," Soul Line is made up of several current or former members of Dr. Burma and Junk in the Trunk, and fronted by none other than journeyman guitarsmith Will Michaels.

Ville Valovirta is the provisor of impossibly creative, yet rock-solid bassmanship.

"purveyors of a brand of indie they call post-pop and I call, simply, pop, if a strain euphorically indebted to the early 80′s glory days of literate, casually ornate tunesmithery as practiced by writers with names like Paddy and Roddy and Edwyn and even Lloyd, and if that didn’t make you sit up and take notice then you’re reading the wrong review."

Republic of Two – Purveyors of gentle, guitar-based indie

The Cribs tore through a classic energy induced set at The Roxy this past Monday, with new fourth member, legendary guitarsmith Johnny Marr.

Secret History is successor to My Favorite, I believe, led by guy who just wrote a thing in Maura Magazine.

Bollywood has filched tunes from the West for as long as I can remember - check out rip-offs from Chuck Berry, The Beatles, swing jazz and vapid disco for many home-grown hit tunes since the 1950s. But Rahman is not your archetypal tune ripper; he is, instead, an intrepid fusion tunesmith.

This is more Laurabartonry than I can take right now.

Tippett himself is a classically trained musician who came to jazz via Mingus, George Russell, Coltrane, and Pharoah Sanders, but his compositional element also owes to composers such as Darius Milhaud, Vaughan Williams, and Frederick Delius. His front-line group contains the Soft Machine's Elton Dean, plus Nick Evans and Marc Charig, while his rhythm section contains drummer Alan Jackson and bassist Jeff Clyne -- whose bowing sensibilities are not only highly developed but provocative as well. All eight tracks were composed and arranged by Tippett, but his penchant for writing for a particular group of musicians is very keen here: check the Charig solo in I Wish There Was Nowhere, Tippett's own solo in Violence, and the saxophonistry of Dean in Stately Dance for Miss Primm and both versions of This Evening Was Like Last Year.

Peter Wolf Crier is the product of songwriter Peter Pisano and drummer/engineer/soundscapesmith Brian Moen. "Crutch & Cane," snuck up on me late in the year, but its low-fi aesthetic and catchy melody made a lasting impression.

A Touch of Madness Victorian Quaffery

We are a well established restaurant situated in the heart of bohemian Observatory. This house was completed in the early 1900's so we felt it only fitting that, a century later, we return it to it's former glory and present a Victorian Quaffery.

What’s better than one kick-ass show at The Monkey House? Two kick-ass shows at The Monkey House! Duh. This weekend, the enterprising lads from Bear Cub Productions have lined up a thrilling two-fer of aural pleasures to slake anyone’s thirst for midwinter rock-foolery.

Spunge have opened up a new avenue in their well-established sound with new material touching on a more serious note, although never served up without an equal helping of ska-punk foolery. Over the years the band have ironed out their songs to live perfection, whilst the soundman deserves a medal or a stiff drink for keeping the sound faithful and clear throughout the night.

After successful campaigns through St Kilda, Northcote and the outer colonies, and a successful return to Fitzroy, the rock gigantonaught Jamo Knoxon takes aim at Revolver for some seriously dangerous rockfoolery. Joined by modern rockers Innerspace, fresh from their album launch, and an intimate solo set from Hew Joseph. Warning: may contain traces of rock. $10 on the door from 8.30pm.

Spunge's live perfection stems from their meticulously planned setlists

The only complaint I have with this album is the noise at the end of "23 beats off', but this might not be a bad thing if you have the taste for Sonic Youth type guitarfoolery. Still, the lyrics make the choice of music appropriate, since the song is about the noise the general public makes about people with the HIV virus.

My favourite music has been undergound/indie/punk rock for the last decade so I'm the last person who would enjoy sitting through hours of guitar solos - however I think the performance in this broadcast was pretty well balanced, only briefly veering towards unnecessary plankspankery.

that's from a discussion on whathifi.com about Cream live at the Albert Hall

DJ Mencap, your display name is a reference to the shiba snow puppy gif and to Screaming Lord Sutch- is it also meant to be a reference to the pop singer Lorde (lord)?

Precision beer spraying is all about timing ....

I mean, because people have lots of opinions about Lorde, I wasn't sure if that was meant to be part of the joke.

ensions between the city's teenaged "hooligans" and everyone else who's fed up with the invincible aura of juvenescence boiled over in the West Village yesterday, when the 68-year-old owner of Carmine St. Guitars confronted a group of rowdy kids. "They were just causing problems," guitarmonger Dennis Guglielmo told the Daily News. "They think they can come down to the Village and intimidate people." As seen in these breathtaking photos (http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/chair-man-block-article-1.1150908?localLinksEnabled=false), Guglielmo approached one teen and brandished the preferred weapon of the West Village: an expensive-looking patio chair.

just the dual reference for my dn sadly, no '12 Inches Of Snow' here

just that extra e would have taken it into junior mertesac territory

Eric and Parish stepped aside to let Scratch steal the show. Scratch did not disappoint, treating the crowd to an incredible display of turntablesmanship.

If you want to hear jaw-dropping percussive vocalizations (without excessive cussing) and world class turntable deejaysmanship, or if you just want an entertaining way to round out your cultural literacy, check it out (y’all.)

TNGHT is the glorious union of sugary beatstrel Hudson Mohawke and puckish Canadian producer Lunice.

In a letter to Alma Mahler dated August 1914, Schoenberg waxed miltant in his zeal for the German cause, denouncing in the same breath the music of Bizet, Stravinsky, and Ravel. “Now comes the reckoning!” Schoenberg thundered. “Now we will throw these mediocre kitschmongers into slavery, and teach them to venerate the German spirit and to worship the German God.”

and to think that Geir always had a bee in his bonnet about him

http://thequietus.com/articles/14949-klara-lewis-ett-review

Klara Lewis may be a newcomer to Editions Mego's much-vaunted stable of electronic craftspeople, but Ett is the work of a gifted and thoughtful sound sculptress, who combines found sounds, field recordings and electronic textures to create beguiling and resonant works that operate on all manner of levels, and in which individual sounds are dissolved of context to create a fresh subliminal narrative.

On first hearing, the first comparison that sweeps to mind is with London-based sonic construction artist Luke Younger, aka Helm, [...]

One of the album's standout creations (the word 'tracks' seems somehow unsatisfying), 'Shine' encapsulates the nebulous reality of Ett.

Local analogue buzzer Diamond Dagger deals in both ‘boogie’ and ‘electro boogie’ genres (as per the bandcamp page) as well as propagating what sounds like soundtracks to forgotten or possibly non-existent, made-up movies and computer games on Estate Crudele. On Apollo’s Creed for example,layers of vintage synthistry build sweetly over a krauty beat that feels like it could build infinitely. Only complaint: there’s not more of the likes of last year’s What’s Your Friend’s Name, the DD collaboration with Meljoann.

The backstory:

One of our jeansmiths started a batch of our Surry Raw jeans with blue stitching — and they’re sort of gorgeous, so we finished the run (total pairs, 68).

just bumping this thread because I feel a little down and it cheers me up

omg "topical gagsmith," somehow missed that one until now

Milo, the Philosoraptor. Rap Game Kwame Appiah. Elrond Hubbard, your idiot vagabond brother. He’s not a rapper, he’s a rapsmith. If you can’t discern the difference, you’re thinking too hard.

when it comes to rapsmithery, I don't think there's any debate: it's Will Smith or nothing, and #fuckthehaters

(stay tuned for my Sam Smith pun, working on it as we speak)

(give me just a little more time)

It’s back to the Imperial Theatre for more countrified twangsmithery, and the oddly-named Musée Mécanique, who are actually from Portland, Oregon and deeply traditional.
