"LET'S CHANGE THE WORLD WITH MUSIC" foi escrito, gravado e produzido por PADDY McALLON, em 1992.

Ao que parece este álbum devia ter sido o sucessor de "JORDAN: THE COMEBACK" (1990), mas a Sony Music recusou a edição do álbum devido a diferendos com o músico sobre a duração do registo. 17 anos depois, "LET'S CHANGE THE WORLD WITH MUSIC" chega, finalmente, às lojas e aos ouvidos dos fãs dos PREFAB SPROUT.

A propósito desta edição, o vocalista e mentor da banda, PADDY McALLON, deu uma interessante entrevista ao jornal INDEPENDENT, onde fala deste novo trabalho e dos problemas de saúde que o fizeram afastar-se da ribalta e o impedem de cantar as suas próprias músicas. Vale a pena ler.

Obrigado ao Planeta Pop pela informação.

——————————————-
Nick Cave and Warren Ellis have been creating music together for more than fifteen years, with The Bad Seeds, Grinderman and The Dirty Three. More recently, they have collaborated on soundtracks for such films as The Proposition (2005) and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford (2007). White Lunar, a two CD set to be released by Mute on September 22, 2009, contains music they composed from the aforementioned films, along with a selection of their cinematic scores, including rare and previously unavailable material.

Cave and Ellis’ first soundtrack together was Australian director John Hillcoat’s 2005 quasi-Western, The Proposition (for which Cave also wrote the screenplay). The following year, the pair received a commission to compose the music for a film by another Australian director, Andrew Dominik’s The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. By the time Dominik’s film came out, Hillcoat had begun his adaptation of The Road (Cormac McCarthy’s novel of a father and son’s trek across a vast wasteland in the aftermath of global catastrophe); once again Cave and Ellis were invited to create music for the film. With The Road as yet unreleased, this album offers a rare opportunity for a sneak preview of the soundtrack.

All three movies, with their epic landscapes and acutely incised psychology, find a correlative sweep and depth in the scores that Cave and Ellis have devised for them, and a poignancy that imbues the films with a timeless aura; the music from this triumvirate is on Disc 1 of the 2 CD set. In addition to these large-scale efforts, Cave and Ellis have also contributed a resonant musical dimension to a pair of lesser known, but striking documentaries, represented on Disc 2.

In 2007, Cave and Ellis scored Geoffrey Smith’s harrowing The English Surgeon, a film tracing Dr. Henry Marsh’s struggle to bring neurosurgery to post-Soviet Ukraine. Amplifying the enterprising doctor’s frustrations and anxieties, his practical genius and ethical dread, the music sighs and whines like the surgical instruments Dr. Marsh shanghais from the NHS. The Girls of Phnom Penh (2009), Matthew Watson’s film investigating Cambodia’s “virginity trade”, describes a sorority of three young sex workers, struggling with degradation and poverty against Cave and Ellis’ urgent sound-scape of humid loops, serrated cymbals and geysers of steam.

Accompanying the soundtracks on the second disc are four pieces drawn from the Cave & Ellis archives, all named after craters: “Magma” is constructed from a chorus of Warren singing a pitch-shifted riff, “Zanstra” swarms like a storm of hornets besieging a submarine, “Halo” finds pastoral calm in the eager teeth of defeat and “Daedalus” rises sure as the sun, with dewy flute and fluttering piano motes, before a sudden fade. The sequence is conceived as a suite. “Listen to it as you might listen to an instrumental album” recommends Ellis, as “some kind of trip”.

"ASSOBIO é sopro; um sopro musical. E sopro é vida; a vida que passa pela cultura popular e pela sua transmissão constantemente renovada. ASSOBIO trabalha essencialmente a partir da tradição musical portuguesa.
Para além de utilizar inúmeros instrumentos musicais (tradicionais e outros), lança mão a diversos objectos sonoros e a recursos dos nossos tempos: processamento digital e programações de computador, por exemplo.
É a música tradicional expandida, assim como que uma espécie de upgrade à tradição, um Trad 2.0, um namoro entre o passado e o presente.
Assobio trabalha a partir da Guarda e é formado por César Prata e Vanda Rodrigues."

Enquanto não chega o novo álbum de Black Swan Lane, o melhor que temos a fazer é deliciar-nos com o seu álbum de estreia. Já tem um ano e meio, mas continua tão actual como na data em que foi lançado.

Para quem não conhece, os Black Swan Lane são um banda que conta com membros dos The Chameleons, Sun and the Moon, the Messengers e Convent. E ouvindo-os, a primeira coisa que nos faz mesmo lembrar é a mítica banda do Mark Burgess. O que desde logo é um bom sinal…

Numa dupla improvável, Sara Noxx e Limahl acabaram de lançar um excelente EP, que vai fazer agitar as pistas de dança dos clubes da Europa. Será desta que o Limahl volta às luzes da ribalta, depois de um semi-falhado álbum com os Kajagoogoo, o ano passado?
