Pop Art Illustration

Lagi seneng-senengnya belajar bikin ilustrasi ala pop art, untuk mempertajam insting menggambar gue yg udh lama ga kepake lagi, sebenernya rindu banget sama sketch book dan pensil. Inilah versi pop art gue, walaupun masih berantakan dimana – dimana, tapi gue tidak melihatnya harus simetris, karena “gaya” gue memang tidak simetris :p

Josh Doyle Interview [The Music Magazine]

TMM

Josh Doyle Interview

March 20th, 2010 → 8:08 am @ Rahsian Parris

Josh Doyle Interview

It has been ten years since the Dum Dums first rocked their way onto UK airwaves and into our hearts, but one underrated album, a string of catchy singles and a breakup later; ex front man, Josh Doyle, still delivers the goods as an independent solo artist. Josh sheds some light on what it is like being an independent artist having come from a mainstream pop background.

It’s a decade since the Dum Dums first single was released, how do you think the industry has changed?

Completely. We were popular during a boom time, the biggest year ever for music. If we would have brought [our music] out today with our sales from then, we would have had all number ones! Back then it would have been impossible to be independent but now there are avenues opening up all over the place.

It is commonly thought that your record label dropped you (the band), what actually happened?

Hahaha! Sometimes people want the quickest story possible to tell their buddy but its not like they lost interest and said, “you didn’t sell enough records, you’re dumped”. You can watch our documentary at dumdums.com to see how it panned out.

How much pressure is there to conform to what is popular?…

Cha-Cha - The Fellowship (Popnoodle Records)

If you are a fan of the eccentric author Roald Dahl you might have come across his novel ‘Georges’ Marvellous Medicine’. Now if you have read it you might re-call that the story follows George as he tries to concoct a medicine to cure his Grandma of her horrible ways. To do this he uses all sorts of ingredients and time. What he doesn’t realise is that a simple cure for his grumpy Grandma is currently hidden away in London.

You see, Cha-Cha are the musical equivalent of valium. One beat of this band’s latest single ‘The Fellowship’ – a free download no less, is enough to zap any old hag out of their bad mood and into a dance frenzy.

Which, come to think of it seems to be regular occurrence when listening to Cha-Cha. ‘The Fellowship’ is funky, fun and quite exceptionally fabulous. That’s not mentioning how addictive it is (VERY).  The guitar riffs in this song will have you bobbing up and down as if some trickster has super-glued a space hopper to your backside. And boy, do you have to love the singer’s voice which sounds like the musical equivalent of a strawberry smoothie.

It’s going to be very difficult to wait until May to hear the album.

5/5

Unsung Classics Pt. II: ABBA's "The Visitors"

In 2010, we all know that ABBA were master purveyors of quality pop, but that wasn’t always the case. Often derided as kitsch or somewhat outmoded, it’s really since the release of their final new material in 1982 that ABBA’s tenure as pop’s leading group for that decade before has achieved the acclaim it deserves.

The arrangements and production were top notch, the vocal harmonies often beautiful and surprisingly intricate (owing to a love of the Beach Boys), and the melodies were invariably sublime, infused with a wistful Scandinavian melancholy.

ABBA’s final studio album, 1981’s The Visitors, pretty much broke all the rules as far as the “ABBA formula” went. You could really only count the hit single “One of Us” as an ABBA single in the classic mould; the rest bears the influence of early ’80s synth-pop and a dark stage-musical quality (presaging Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus’ work on the Chess musical.) There are no “Dancing Queen”s or “Fernando”s here.

This is not happy, singalong stuff. Opener “The Visitors” is a creepy cold war anthem, all chilly synths and distorted vocals, with one of ABBA’s most inventive but somewhat unfriendly hooks. Minor hit “Head Over Heels” is quirky, offbeat synth-pop-meets-Euro-melodrama, with one of Agnetha’s finest vocals, while “When All Is Said and Done” is a panoramic, anthemic pop gem that finds Anni-Frid Lyngstad, rather oddly, proclaiming that she is “not too old for sex.”

Other oddities include the Bjorn-sung “Two for the Price of One,” which strays uncomfortably into the prospect of threesome territory; the wonderful, dramatic “I Let the Music Speak,” which features one of Frida’s best vocals and is one of ABBA’s finest examples of merging their classic pop sound with the stage-musical style they had flirted with for a number of years;  and the haunting closer “Like an Angel Passing Through My Room,” where all the extraneous arrangements and production are completely stripped away. It’s decidedly un-ABBA, but pretty great. And I haven’t even mentioned the utterly superb “Soldiers” yet, an indisputed highlight with its atmospheric arrangement and beautiful, sad minor chord melody.

The CD editions of The Visitors bolster the original nine songs with some extra tracks from ABBA’s later recording sessions, the highlight of which is definitely “The Day Before You Came,” quite possibly the most miserable ABBA song of all time (with a brilliantly matter-of-fact vocal from Agnetha), but this is also one of the prime examples of ABBA doing that grey, lonely, isolated Scandinavian melancholy to perfection. The synths are cold and bleak, and it’s one of the jewels in the group’s catalogue. Needless to say, it wasn’t a hit.

The Visitors wasn’t exactly a huge leap from ABBA’s previous works; songs like Super Trouper’s “Me and I” had introduced a quirkier, synth-laden quality to the ABBA sound, and they had been playing with stage-musical melodrama from the mid-’70s on songs like “I Wonder (Departure)” and “Thank You for the Music,” but still, The Visitors was a surprisingly cold, bleak record borne out of the group’s personal turmoil (divorces galore.)

No ABBA record is really found in those ‘Best of All Time’ lists, which is a shame because they’re all great in their own way. I suppose they are seen more as a “hits” group than an album-driven one. Certainly, The Visitors features some curios that won’t be to everyone’s taste. But it’s actually one of ABBA’s best and most significant records. An odd, yet oddly fitting, note on which to end a glittering career.

Green

Today is St. Patrick’s Day.

Growing up on the South Side of Chicago, it’s always been a pretty big deal. I’ve donned something “South Side Irish” since I was born, I think. My earliest memory is a satin green jacket with my name embroidered on the upper right front…and South Side Irish on the back. So cool. No satin jackets anymore, but I do have a pretty sweet t-shirt and winter hat. I wore both to work today…even though it was about 55˚ outside today.

3:30 pm rolled around and the potato skin bar was unveiled. As were the kegs of green beer. One by the potatoes. The other was a rolling keg bar that was carted through the office for all to enjoy…complete with Irish music. I still had a lot of work to do, but since I wasn’t able to go OUT to celebrate this year, the work festivities were very welcomed.

M came over yesterday to hang with the kiddo. It was a nice night. And I think that we were able to work together to put a quick stop to a certain 2-year old trying to bargain, manipulate and work us before bedtime. It was one of the few times we’ve actually been in a place to do this. It was kind of nice to have the back-up. Even if only for a night.

The pugs got a bath and their nails done today. (Much needed) Isabella got a bath too. And while I’m B would have preferred it to be WITH the puggies, that was not the case. ;)

Sounds like M went to the DBSA group this evening, which I think is great. He was talking about trying to apply for disability. And I think that there may be some good resources there of others who have gone down the path before him.

** I wanted to wish a belated birthday to one of my blog-reading-friends: ASP. HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRIEND! I see big things in the upcoming year for you…and couldn’t think of someone more deserving of big things and good times. ;) **

Oh, and on a “me” note, I decided to try to give up pop. Nor for lent or any of those “I’m going to go to hell if I do XYZ on Fridays” kind of things. This is one thing that I’ve tried to do in the past, but just haven’t been able to shake it. This time I’m going with the switch to Crystal Light Tea in lieu of pop. And then I’ll slowly move to just water. I’m hoping that this is one move I can make to help get my health back on the right track. Then I need to figure out the whole “get my ass to the gym” thing. And “don’t eat french fries and shitty food” thing. Baby steps. Right? ;)

Single Review: Pyramid by Charice feat. Iyaz

Charice surely has paid her dues. After starting her music career by joining a contest held by one of the Philippines’ major media outlets, she turned into an internet sensation thanks to YouTube. Charice’s career received a highly publicized push when current American Idol judge Ellen DeGeneres gave Charice the opportunity to showcase her talent to a larger audience. Since then, she has done lots of TV appearances, concert appearances, and the like. Recently, she has released her second single, Pyramid, a collaborated effort with Virgin Islander Iyaz.

Pyramid sounds, without a doubt, better than Charice’s first single Note To God. Charice’s mad vocals are the song’s biggest asset. Iyaz does not overpower Charice’s vocals in the track as well. As an additional note, Iyaz is not an annoying presence in this one. Iyaz’ presence can be compared to how Flo Rida contributed to Alexandra Burke song Bad Boys – something helpful for the betterment of the track.

Pyramid is definitely well-structured. The beat present in the track surely induces lots of positive vibes into the song. The chorus is arguably great. The lines are something that one could repeat from time and time again. If there are any gripes about the song that this writer could have, it would be the abuse on the Auto-Tune technology. Sure, Charice’s vocals may be mad for most of the song but she sounds like JoJo at times. As my colleague Aid mentioned, Iyaz sounds ‘fixed’ in the track. Still, I would like to say that Pyramid is very likable and very infectious despite the vocal manipulation done on the track.

Ultimately, Pyramid somehow managed to temporarily stop the dislike that I have for Charice. She totally nailed it with the track. Pyramid is something catchy and does not sound too cheesy. The track does not go over-the-top and simply hit the notes very finely. Pyramid surely tells why people have fallen in love with the Filipina. I am definitely proud of the things that she has accomplished, that is for sure.

Hologram Jams

Jaguar Love Hologram Jams

“AWW LISTEN TO MY HEAR SLAM IT”S A HOLOGRAM JAM!”

That, a line from “Cherry Soda”, comes really goddamn close to summing up the entire album. In fact, another line from the same song (“Sugar-coated cherry soda pukin’ on the lawn/it’s six A.M. the party’s over everybody’s gone) basically provides the rest of the equation. I had high hopes for this shit. Johnny Whitney was my favorite part of the Blood Brothers (I promise this is not a Blood Brothers blog), with his unabashedly flamboyant, toy-aisle-tantrum hair-curling yowl-fest voice. Luckily, the voice still plays, but Jesus. This album is so over the top it’s like auditory neon. Granted, I got into that Past Lives record first, but even that can’t make the lack of subtlety any less glaring.

Jaguar Love’s first album, Take Me to the Sea, played things a little safer, going for a standard guitar/drums/Johnny Whitney/maybe some keyboards formula. It was pretty sweet. They had J. Clark, the drummer from Pretty Girls Make Graves, which was pretty sweet, and it was a little less abrasive than Young Machetes without being totally fucking lame, which was pretty sweet, and then they came out with Hologram Jams last week, which, in theory, was pretty sweet. “I Started a Fire”, the first track, is pretty sweet, and in fact EXTREMELY catchy, in a similar way that Andrew W.K.’s “Party Hard” was extremely catchy. But by the time the second song hits, you can already tell that there isn’t going to be a lot of depth here. For one thing, it’s called “Polaroids and Red Wine”. Come on. That’s like the Fisher-Price My-First-Hipster kit. Still, it’s catchy as hell and has this dance/face-melt thing going on. And then comes “Cherry Soda” which plays more to the face-melt than it does to the dance, which is awesome…

And then you’re basically out of good songs. The rest of them are the same day-glo punch in the face, with Whitney screeching exuberance at you (see “Everything is Awesome”) and sounding like he’s about seventeen years old. You start to miss the drummer, real bad, because the drum machine cranks out machine-gun obviousness. And he was from Pretty Girls Make Graves.

Maybe it isn’t fair that I listened to the Past Lives record first. To be honest, I fully expected to be obsessed with this one, but I can’t deny the fact that Past Lives have matured (but not in a boring, growing-up, impotent way) and Jaguar Love have regressed, with the Blood Brothers being the reference point. Tapestry of Webs seriously took me on a ride the first time, and it was fucking awesome, and I’ve been going back for more ever since. Hologram Jams showed the goods on the first round, and shot its wad in the process.

That’s basically all I’ve got. There are only two more things that need to be noted:

1. I will move on from talking/writing about the Blood Brothers now.

2. The last song on the album is a FUCKING JANIS JOPLIN COVER. At first, it was worth a lot of points in the category of HAHAHAHAHA WHAT THE FUCK?! After 3 seconds, it was completely unlistenable, misguided, regrettable, embarrassing, and abrasive (in a bad way).

Bloc Party might reunite later this year

British Indie rockers Bloc Party went on an indefinite hiatus after they wrapped up they 2009 fall tour tentatively called ‘Bloctober‘. But as of right now the hiatus doesn’t appear to be as indefinite as it had first appeared, Bloc Party’s guitarist Russel Lissack stated in an interview with NME that “We’re probably going to pick up again with Bloc Party later this year” and that “We’re definitely not splitting up, there’s a lot more creative life left in it yet“. Apparently the band wrote a lot of songs during their last tour and that those songs may still be realized in the studio.

Until that happens we still have Russel’s solo project Pin Me Down to look forward to, and he says it is his chance to “celebrate pop music“. Bloc Party’s lead singer Kele Okereke is also working on a solo project that’s to be produced by Hudson and Bloc Party bassist/back up vocalist Gordon Moakes is currently working with Paul Mullen of The Automatic and La Roux’s drummer William Bowerman on a side project titled ‘Young Legionnaire‘.

So there’s still a lot to look forward to for all of us Bloc Party fans.

- For the love of pop

addicted.

We have a magnetic field around us
I find myself closing in on you
We are adhesive like
This glue sticking to my fingers
Don’t keep my head under the water cause I can’t breathe
But I really don’t care unless you’re holding me
I am a girl falling in love
Sinking below sea level
I had a paper bag over my head
I’m just learning to pedal

[Chorus]
I can’t help it but I love the way you move, the way to say my name
My heart’s a ballerina, dancing from room to room
It doesn’t get tired, when I’m on fire
Oh yeah, I am addicted to you
Like bees to honey, honey to bees
Honey, I’m addicted to you

I am a girl who drinks from glass jars
I am a kind that drives those classic cars
Yeah, I got a leather jacket
Climbing mountains tops to reach fireflies
You got my heart in your pocket
You are a sweet, unexpected invasion
So bring on your wind that carries your troubles
I’m waiting, waiting in anticipation  

[Chorus]  

Bats in the sky
They have no direction
They go where they like
Masked from expectations
What blind ride
I want to go where I like
Do you want to join my side?  

I am addicted, addicted, addicted, addicted to you
I can’t help it, you’re everything I’ve ever wanted
I am addicted, addicted, addicted, addicted to you
I can’t help it, you’re everything I’ve ever wanted

Dido - Quiet Times

Artist: Dido
Album: Safe Trip Hope (2008)

Piesa “Quiet Times” apare pe al treilea album al lui Dido şi este o melodie dedicată tatălui cântăreţei, decedat în 2006. Albumul e puţin diferit de precedentele două, stilul lui Dido rămâne, dar nu mi-a plăcut la fel de mult. Din câte am citit pe site-ul ei oficial acum ceva vreme, ni se pregăteşte şi un al patrulea album. Să sperăm că va fi gata cât mai curând.


Lyrics / Dido – Quiet Times

Ask me where i go tonight i go back to today last year.
Me and you had to make each other happier, now theres hope with everything.

Its hard enough to feel the world as it is and hold on anything.
Without these quiet times you’ve brought round here.

Im Gonna have to run away, im sure that i belong some other place.
I’ve seen another side of all i’ve seen it keeps me wondering where my family is.

Its hard enough to see the world as it is, and hold on anything.
Without these quiet times coming round here.

Now i miss you…
Now i want you…
But i can’t have you…
Even when your here…

Suppose i have to take you with me, broken mind i’d rather leave you here. To forget everything you’ve seen and known erase every idea.

And you walk up in the street, and hold my hand and smile.
Well i won’t be taken in, cus i know how it turns out.
And it takes me back to these quiet times coming round here.

Now i miss you…
Now i want you…
Your not coming back…
And i need you…
But i can’t have you…
Even when your here…

Now i miss you…
Now i want you…
Your not coming back…
And i need you…
But i can’t have you…
Even when your here…
