hello everybody!
december wasn't one of the most busy months in here...
but, there are still some releases on the waiting list,
so stay tuned for more great music soon!
for all those of you who speak german, there'll be a little
interview and a 30-minutes mixtape compiled by me on the
netmusic-special on "radio fritz" this saturday (26.12.2009)!
you can listen to it here:
(it is recorded, so you can also listen to it later...)
http://trackback.fritz.de/
...hopefully i didn't talk too much nonsense... but probably i did...
so don't mind what i said, and let's focus on the music :)
it will be a 2-hours netmusic-only program, so it is also interesting
for non-german-speakers...
------
edit: it's online!
have a listen to it here: trackback - 26.12.2009

robin grey - strangers with shoes
a few words by osenboz:
this time i'm very happy to present you one of my
highest awaited releases...
robin grey's second box of folk-music-pleasure is finally
available on jamendo & bandcamp.
once again robin grey produced a well balanced, thoughtful release.
if you have a look at the contributors, you'll see how much
love and work was put into this record:
there's amazing female singing assistance by madelaine hart,
beth dariti, victoria couper, and brilliant instrumental backing
by iain macleod, ben oliver, joe allen, barbara bartz,
tom pie and poppy villiers.
additionally there are the expected great lyrics,
and all this is merged together to a release which got the power
to drown all the terrible-unvaried-christmas-songs out without
needing to turn the volume as loud as possilbe...
..and of course this cd will surely not be put into locked boxes after
christmas. (but all the terrible christmas-songs hopefully will...)
i don't know why this release is currently not listed
on his homepage, or on modifythevan-records, but probably
it can be found there in a few days/weeks...
...for those who want to have a look at the lyrics,
go to the bandcamp-page!
...and according to the pre-listen song:
be sure not to miss Barbara Bartz and Ben Oliver with their violin and
piano in the end!

ottilie - histories d'o
a few words by osenboz:
here's another release which i should have added
a long time ago....
it's been on my computer since monts... but as so many others,
it got lost in my labyrinth of cd's, documents, folders...
but, as a nice saying tells: "you meet everybody twice in life"
and fortunately it seems to be similar with music :)
ok, now i'll stop writing about my chaos, and continue with music:
this time i'm happy to be able to present you a new genre which
wasn't featured on the blog before... chanson!
the french duo of "Jean-Philippe Barrios" and "Ottilie B." offered
us their release "histoires d'o" on "acoustic-firework records"
a few months ago.
the intense voice of ottilie is funny and serious at the same time,
and seems to be strong without losing its fragility.
in combination with the instrumental assistance by jean-philippe
the music tells a story without words.
as i wrote about the release by "sync filmico",
it's always hard for bands to enthuse me if i don't understand their
singing, because normally i set a very high value on the lyrics.
but, there are some bands who manage to just simply make me
believe that they sing about things that would enthuse me...
and sometimes it's also interesting to listen to a language which
i don't understand, because then i can interpret my own feelings
into the songs.
but for this, the music (and in this case also the voice of ottilie)
itself needs to deliver enough emotions to make this possible.
...and yes, ottilie is definitely one of those bands!
enjoy!

zoe.leela - queendom come
a few words by osenboz:
listening to the german radio-show "trackback"
on the radiostation "fritz" always offers a lot of useful
information about the internet, and additionally provides
a great selection of new creative common licensed music!
... and last monday they remembered me to a release
which i was really looking forward to:
"queendom come" by rec72's massive new artist "zoe.leela".
with this release she definitely lifts up the german
electronic netaudio-scene into new levels!
her great voice co-operates perfectly with the
diversified beats and melodies which are both capable
for partys on weekends, and lazy tuesday nights at home...
my favourites are:
01 - gold
02 - bridges
05 - destroy she says
...and for those who got the chance to be in berlin
on 13. december....
visit the record-release party at "Cafe Zapata"!!
