![]() ![]() Not so much remixes as re-imaginings, the nine songs on Yell & Ice play with the same generally esoteric (at least in absolute comprehension) themes found on the full-length, but twist and pull them around, bringing in outside vocalists (Chris Adams of Bracken, Tunde Adebimpe of TV on the Radio, Markus Acher from the Notwist, Yoni Wolf of Why?, and Dan Boeckner of Wolf Parade) to add, amend, and contribute their own views as Doseone harmonizes whiningly in the background. And like A New White, this record was followed up by its own set of revisions, the "limited-edition mini album" Yell & Ice. In 2006 Subtle also released the fantastic For Hero: For Fool, an abstract piece that tells the tale of Hour Hero Yes, a kind of middle-class Everyman looking for answers, direction, and perhaps salvation in our very postmodern world. Quote from: Allmusic n 2006 avant hip-hop group Subtle, led by the ever-enigmatic Doseone, issued Wishingbone, a collection of remixes and remakes of song off their 2004 album, A New White. BLACK PARADE .RAR FULLCD comes complete with the customary extensive 40 page booklet that is full of exclusive photos. Os Mutantes, the sophisticated musical anarchists from Sao Paulo not only became the musical template for Beck, they were also discovered by Kurt Cobain on tour in Brazil who tried (and failed) to get them to support Nirvana. Tropicalia in the late 1960s revolutionized Brazilian music mixing Psychedelic Rock, avant-garde musique concrete (tape loops, sound experiments), Samba, Funk and Soul into a truly unique combination.This is the first album to bring together all the artists involved in Tropicalia, Os Mutantes, Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Tom Ze, Gal Costa and more. Most everything here is as urgent and electric as anything you'll hear on contemporary radio. The genius, however, is that every moment on Tropicalia sounds both classic and modern at the same time. Gal Costa's "Vou Recomecar" is a delight, playing like a foreign counterpart to Dusty Springfield's blue-eyed soul sparkle. You're never quite sure what you'll hear from track to track. Enthusiastic vocals, inspired chants, inventive loops, and hushed arrangements collide throughout this expanse collection. ![]() Each, however, makes their own potent artistic statement. The artists assembled here-Os Mutantes, Gilberto Gil, Caetano Veloso, Tom Ze, Gal Costa-are all an integral part of the tropicalia scene. Tropicalia arose in the late 1960s as a genre informed by rock, bossa nova, soul, and underground rhythms, all mashed together to create an electrifying new movement in Brazilian music. This dizzyingly diverse melting pot of sounds is a perfect primer on tropicalia-and then some. I've seriously spent the last three months thinking about that mystery morning DJ, and now I know that I already loved him anyway. I recognized the song that was starting and as soon as he stepped into the light and let his hair down, I was like "OH MY GAWD!". *Funny Aside* As soon as the first song started, I realized that I had actually seen Bassnectar live at Burning Man this year at like 5:30 in the morning on Tuesday. BLACK PARADE .RAR FREEThe result is an extremely vivid and organic sound-storm that absolutely never fails to get me groovin', and his live show was off the motha-fuggin' chain, Openers were Beats Antique and Mike Relm, both of whose Myspace I am now addicted too for the free mix sets they offer. Now, I loved the concert so much that I went ahead and actually PAID $$$$ for one of his older CD's, but whenever I try and mediafire it, it gets to 99% and goes "User not MediaPro" can anyone help me with that so I can give everyone the other Bassnectar CDs I have (Because they are fuggin' Awesome).įor those of you unawares, Bassnectar is the DJ Lorin Ashton from Cali who just takes the krunkiest, farting, demonic buzzes and beats and throws them together with a mix of Hip/Trip-hop and some old school candy-pop thrown in for flavor. ![]()
