para-para-parrotdies Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 OutKast are Working on a New Album, According to Ex-Manager Queen Latifah A reunited Big Boi and Andre 3000 will be headlining Coachella 2014, playing festival spots across the globe - of which Glastonbury is a likely candidate - and generally celebrating 20 years since their classic debut Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik. Touch wood, it looks like that won’t be all – as has been conjectured numerous times, an album apprears to be in the works as well. The news arrives from rapper/one-time OutKast manager/chat show doyenne Queen Latifah who opened up about the subject on The Howard Stern Show. When asked what the ATLiens were up to, Latifah said that the duo were “about to work on a new album”. Not official confirmation, then, but certainly something to whet the appetite. http://www.factmag.com/2014/01/14/outkast-are-working-on-a-new-album-according-to-reports/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouch Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 So Far... Mogwai - it was solid record in terms of the heavy use of electronics, but not the best thing I've ever heard, but good music Thee Mt. Zion... - Wow, all that rock influence really pays off on this. Congrats to them Against Me! - I liked it a lot, but my opinion might be different if this weren't the first time listening to them Warpaint - Some were memorable, it was a strong C average to me, definitely a music grower Stephen Malkums and the Jicks - solid album, doing what he does best, super Dog Bite - Some nice shoegaze to start the year, an improvement from their last record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-para-parrotdies Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Slowdive Officially Confirm Reunion; Reveal FEstival Appearance and Album Plans The rumblings have been around for a while now, but today Slowdive have confirmed that the whispers of a reunion aren’t unjustified. The band took to Twitter to announce an appearance at this year’s Primavera Sound in Barcelona. It will be the first time the band have been together since they split in 1995, and quite rightly there are bound to be expectations. Their official website has flickered to life, listing the Primavera date in a “live” section (suggesting there will be more shows on the way) and offering a teeshirt in the merch section. Slowdive’s Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell spoke to The Quietus and clarified things a little, saying that there wasn’t a big paycheck waiting for them, and that the reunion was for “artistic reasons,” revealing that they hope to “get a new record together.” http://www.factmag.com/2014/01/28/slowdive-officially-confirm-reunion-reveal-festival-appearance/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-para-parrotdies Posted April 9, 2014 Author Share Posted April 9, 2014 Aphex Twin Unreleased Album Caustic Window to Be Sold Digitally on Kickstarter, Physically on eBay Earlier this week, FACT noticed that a test pressing of the unreleased 1994 Aphex Twin album Caustic Window was up for sale on Discogs. The price is listed at $13,500... which is a lot. But the record's owner, along with Richard D. James' label Rephlex Records, have struck up a deal with the electronic music forum We Are The Music Makers (WATMM): A Kickstarter will give 500 people the chance to receive a digital copy of the album. The site's administrator, who goes by Joyrex, negotiated the asking price down to $8,368. That means those who buy into the Kickstarter will pay about $16 for a digital download. Once the Kickstarter threshold is met, the physical LP will be sold on eBay. The proceeds from the eBay sale will be split evenly between Rephlex/Aphex Twin, the people who pay into the Kickstarter, and a charity to be decided on by the site's users. After the auction is completed, everyone will receive their digital downloads. "Apparently all agree that it’s a good chance to give the hardcore fans a unique chance to own something that will never see the light of day otherwise," Joyrex wrote. http://pitchfork.com/news/54714-aphex-twin-unreleased-album-caustic-window-to-be-sold-digitally-on-kickstarter-physically-on-ebay/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Producer Evian Christ, who worked on last year's Yeezus, talked to self-titled about contributing to the album (as Radio.com points out). "I’ve got to get home and write an Otis Redding–style beat for him," Christ said during self-titled's interview. "[Kanye] e-mailed last night. He wants something that sounds a bit like Otis Redding, a bit like Mobb Deep." http://pitchfork.com/news/54731-evian-christ-working-on-new-kanye-west-album/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-para-parrotdies Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 Kanye Reportedly DJ’d 20 New Songs In London Last Night The fabled, mysterious new Kanye West album might be coming sooner than we knew. Last night, Kanye performed at London’s Wireless festival. After the show, he and longtime consigliere Virgil Abloh took over the DJ booth at a London club, as Complex reports. And according to various eyewitness Twitter accounts, the two played about 20 new songs, which one twitterer described as “’Dark’, ’hellish’ and ’groundshaking!’” Promising! This could mean that the new album is loaded up and ready to go, possibly for a Beyoncé-style surprise release, or it could mean that Kanye is still tinkering with it and that he wanted to see how these songs would sound over club speakers. Either way, this continues to be our most anticipated album of the year, and we continue to know basically nothing about it. http://www.stereogum.com/1690768/kanye-reportedly-djd-20-new-songs-in-london-last-night/news/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

para-para-parrotdies Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Kanye West Reveals Next Album Could Drop in September, Single in Two Weeks It’s been a year since Yeezus, and Kanye West appears to have its followup almost ready. In an interview with GQ, West stated, when asked about how far away the next record was, that it could come as early as September, which is just over a month away. “I think most likely September,” he stated, noting that while he goes “back and forth,” he should have one of the songs out “in the next couple of weeks.” He says initially he wanted the album to drop in June (to “kill it for the summer”) but has to “work on Adidas and be with my child.” On the new single, entitled ‘All Day’, West claims that it’s “a song that can be in the club like ‘Don’t Like’ or ‘*****s in Paris,’” so we’re hoping it’s actually going to show up in a couple of weeks as planned. There’s always the threat that he could scrap it all and go back to the drawing board, as he says in the interview “when Beyoncé was working on her last album, she took a while.” http://www.factmag.com/2014/07/21/kanye-west-reveals-next-album-could-drop-in-september-single-in-two-weeks/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
