Martina Topley-Bird at the Les Creatives Festival

Wednesday, October 8th, 2008

Time permitting, I would love to take the hour long trip to Geneva to check out Martina Topley-Bird at the Les Creatives Festival in November. Topley-Bird first crashed onto the music scene in 1995 on Tricky’s “Maxinquaye”, creating quite a stir amongst the then pop-conservatives. On her sophomore album “The Blue God”, released in July, [...]

The Noisettes on “Diary of a Call Girl”

Tuesday, June 17th, 2008

So last night on the premiere of “Diary of a Call Girl”, I hear this great soulful song at the end of the show, that ends up bursting at the seems into a full out rock song. After searching endlessly for the song, I found it to be “Break Free” by The Noisettes. Now I [...]

Swiss Miss, Stefanie Heinzmann

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

Ok, so even though Stefanie Heinzmann is most likely one of those manufactured artists that was set into motion after the success of Amy Winehouse (ex. Duffy), she isn’t half bad, and she is Swiss!. At first listen the track started out very similar to that of The Roots rework of Cody Chestnutt’s “The Seed”, [...]

Sam Sparro covers Estelle’s “American Boy”

Thursday, May 1st, 2008

Santogold and Sam Sparro are the albums I have been anticipating the most this year. Now with the release of Santogold’s self-titled album on Tuesday, I just have to wait for Mr. Sparro’s to drop here in the states. Not to worry though, I came across this video of him in the studio covering Estelle’s [...]

Andreya Triana

Monday, April 21st, 2008

Ever since hearing Andreya Triana on Flying Lotus’ “Tea Leaf Dancers”, I have been unable to stop listening to her. Floating in that gray area in between musical genres Andreya always keeps me guessing on what she will bring to the table next. Here is a recent interview I had with her…. Q: When did [...]
