I Daft Punk non si sono sciolti in mondo convenzionale. Niente lunghe spiegazioni, né intervista finale, solo un video criptico e quasi nessuna parola. Uscendo di scena in questo modo, il duo aggiunto un altro strato al proprio mito. A quel punto Thomas Bangalter è sparito dalla circolazione, come se l’uomo dietro la maschera dovesse assentarsi per un po’ prima di tornare.Ora che l’ha fatto, il suo ritorno sulle scene non ha nulla di certi spettacolari comeback, ma è una somma di piccoli gesti: qualche disco; apparizioni improvvisate; la colonna sonora di Mirage – Ballet for 16 Dancers, balletto di…
Despite the passing of Gabi Delgado in 2020, Robert Görl tried in some way to keep the historic Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft project afloat, first with a new, all in all decent work (“Nur Noch Einer”) and then with a series of celebratory concerts unfortunately devoid of the restless presence of the late frontman. Better then to concentrate on a solo album under the name Görl, for the occasion created in cahoots with the DJ and producer Sylvie Marks, a leading figure within the group clubbing Teutonic. Characterized by an unfailing analogue minimalism, “Dark Silver Moon Light” offers us ten rather varied…
Dream Me a Dream serves as a coda to Dance of Love, the 2024 album that introduced cult singer/songwriter Tucker Zimmerman to a wider audience thanks to an assist from Big Thief, who served as his supporting band. The music brought Zimmerman, who dropped off the grid in Belgium after releasing the Tony Visconti-produced, David Bowie-endorsed Ten Songs in 1970, back from obscurity, so he seized the opportunity to deliver a sequel.Not long after completing Dream Me a Dream, Zimmerman and Marie-Claire Lambert, his wife of 55 years and frequent creative partner, perished in a house fire. The terrible accident…
The Eels are back with a new album. The band led by Mark Oliver Everett, alias E, will release their sixteenth studio work, “Cookie Happened”, out on E Works/Play It Again Sam on October 16th. Accompanying the announcement also comes the first single, “Cap In Hand” (listen below), a bittersweet song that introduces some of the album's atmospheres and tells the story of a man who tries to come to terms with his mistakes and put his life back in order. Between melancholy and human warmth, the song anticipates an album focused on small daily victories, on inevitable defeats and…

The song was performed live for the first time on June 18 during the inauguration ceremony of the Obama Presidential Center.“Better Believe” was born from an initiative promoted by the Obama Foundation which involved the Pearl Jam frontman and Guitars Over Guns, a non-profit organization committed to the artistic and human support of young people from complex social contexts. The proceeds generated by the individual will be allocated entirely to the association's activities. The…

It is curious to note that Foreigner, one of the symbolic bands of American arena rock, is actually made up mostly of British musicians. Born in 1976 as a sextet, in 1980 they decided to thin out the lineup, without replacing two resigning members (keyboardist Al Greenwood and multi-instrumentalist Ian McDonald, former founder of King Crimson). In this new phase, only singer Lou Gramm is an American citizen, while the other three are all names with long experiences in the British rock circuit: the founder, main songwriter and guitarist Mick Jones was a member of Spooky Tooth, drummer Dennis Elliott…
