Memphis Minnie: Queen of the Blues
Topic: Music 6:18 pm EDT, Sep 11, 2005

Found via Cafe LA; album review by Rhapsody:

This extensive collection of songs featuring the pioneering female guitarist and blues singer is highlighted by Memphis Minnie's distinctive guitar style and contralto vocals. Minnie sings about committing murder with enough conviction to make you wonder if she wasn't the biggest, baddest bad ass in Chicago in the 1940s.

This is amazing stuff. Check out "When The Levee Breaks" (iTMS URL, RealAudio clip).

I've been wondering when this song was going to pop up in the discouse. Of course, this was famously covered by Led Zeppelin as the last song on their IVth album. It was also on A Perfect Circle's recent compilation of anti-war covers, but I prefer the earlier two renditions personally.

Britney to Rent, Lease or Buy
Topic: Music 6:19 pm EDT, Aug 19, 2005

What's a music-download fan to do -- actually pay for music?

If it comes to that, they'll find that a lot has changed in the online music business.

These rental-music outfits are highly conducive to exploring and discovering new music. They're ideal if your taste leans toward what one Internet wag calls Disposable Contemporary.

"If everyone else is putting out horrible CD's," he said, "why not buy something from people with taste you more or less trust?"

Bicycles and Tricycles | The Orb
Topic: Music 3:58 pm EDT, Jul 17, 2004

Anyone heard this yet?

Slabs of dub, slices of surrealism, and disembodied "found" voices make their appearance on the latest offering by ambient dub commandos The Orb.

Bicycles & Tricycles returns to the original Orb concept which isn't about songs, but lysergic landscapes. Industrial grinds propel you through one moment, only to be untethered into infinite space the next, before being snagged into synchronicity by a dub groove.

MKLVFKWR
Topic: Music 8:18 pm EDT, Jul  3, 2004

Moby and Public Enemy have teamed up for the single MKLVFKWR.

The track was written specially for Unity, The Official Athens 2004 Olympic Games Album compilation.

The music for MKLVFKWR was written by Moby while the lyrics were penned by Chuck D and Flavor Flav of Public Enemy.

Chuck D: "Working with Moby on this theme and project again shows that music can be a universal language of peace. Knowing his great work and concerns of the planet made this project one of like mindedness and world spirit."

Moby says of Public Enemy "I've always been a huge fan" and talking about the role of music and protest he states "we do still ostensibly live in a democracy, so my hope is that at some point the people will vocally rise up and let the current leaders know that they've had enough." Adds Chuck D: "The song is a request that being a citizen of the world should transcend nationality in the name of peace."
