Explore The Thrills Of Falling In Love With aku’s “rose gold in paris town”
Kurt Cobain and Nirvana-inspired artist aku came out with a beautiful song called “rose gold in paris town” and a fascinating music video along with it. The song is an ode to the honeymoon phase of relationships where two people believe they are just perfect for each other. With dark subliminal messages, though, aku brings the listener back to reality, showing images of distorted beauty. “Lost in Heaven Space” is another one of aku’s latest songs that has generated thousands of streams. It has some impressive fast-paced beats and a lovely tune that sinks itself into your mind. The...

Curtis Harding If Words Were Flowers
On Curtis Harding’s third solo album, music is a fundamentally hopeful medium. “Now in this present darkness, all ears just listen,” he raps on “Hopeful”, his flow nimble and bouncy and slightly rushed out of excitement. “A mass has formed to cure the common condition.” The song demonstrates Harding’s expansive approach to songwriting – to forming that mass – and shows how he deploys such disparate musical styles to create new textures. On the song’s chorus he’s joined by a gospel choir joyously chanting that title and pushing him along his righteous path. The jazz-fusion bridge melts into a...
John Coltrane A Love Supreme (Live in Seattle)
He was large and gentle, Melody Maker reported, most unlike his music. Rather than busy and animated, the John Coltrane who played host to the musician and writer Mike Hennessey in a French hotel room was placid, devotional and calm. He unselfconsciously rehearsed his music for an hour. He ate a meal of egg yolks, soup, peaches and water, and spoke of “rediscovering” God. ORDER NOW: David Bowie is on the cover of the December 2021 issue of Uncut His still waters hid strong currents. A month before, Coltrane and a cast of 10 additional players had recorded the freeform...
Radiohead Kid A Mnesia
Riding high on their career-crowning post-rock masterpiece OK Computer, Radiohead could have gone anywhere. And they did. Partly in reaction to the depression, writer’s block and nausea that Thom Yorke experienced in the wake of huge critical and commercial acclaim, the Oxford quintet radically changed their writing methods and sound palette. Guitar-centric rock songs were out, replaced by avant-jazz mood pieces and electro-classical soundscapes. Melody was deconstructed, rhythms scrambled, vocals mangled and manipulated, lyrics spliced into cut-up collages. No longer seeking to emulate Scott Walker, Björk, Jeff Buckley and DJ Shadow, Radiohead were now aiming for a plateau beyond...
Various Artists It’s a Good Good Feeling: The Latin Soul of Fania Records
Beyond its worth as a lovingly packaged set of irresistibly energetic music – either spread across four CDs or condensed to two LPs – Craft Latino’s newest tour of the Fania vault is invaluable as a study of the 20th-century American melting pot in action. While the process of assimilation and adaptation often diluted the proverbial pot’s contents elsewhere in the nation, the unique conditions in New York continually yielded rich results. What could have been a thin soup was instead a chunky stew, the constituent morsels still recognisable yet entirely complementary. In the case of the city’s preeminent...Recent Posts
