American Boy - kein Glück heute

flog — 2008-10-06T20:07:00Z

Heute Montag wollte ich verschiedene Versionen von Estelle - American Boy runterladen, ganz legal, via iTunes. Ging aber nicht. Später dann hatte ich vier tracks in einem zip file, das ich via host-it sharen wollte, auch ein Fehlermeldung! Kein Glück mit meinem Lieblingslied von heute: American Boy

new headphones

flog — 2007-05-09T14:12:00Z

The headphones that come along with you mp3 player, iPod, Walkman, whatever are always bad (in terms of soundquality). As DE-BUG reported a while ago.
(...) Allerdings wird Klangveredelung immer mehr zur Rarität, mittelmäßig kodierte MP3s über billige Kopfhörer oder schlechte Lautsprecher sind für die Masse längst Normalität. Ist guter Klang in Gefahr? (...) YES - it is. Good sound is in DANGER. Even if you spend more than CHF 400,- for the device you'll get cheap headphones with it. That's how the make money... So I decided quite a while a go to spend some money for a good pair in-ear headphones. Not easy: the choice in "normal" shops is really limited, in a small town like Chur... I compared a few brands like M-AUDIO or Etymotic but in the end I went for a relatively cheap one because I didn't now how my small (!) ears would like them. Check prices of Sennheiser CX-300.
Moral der Geschichte (für Schweizer LeserInnen): per Zufall sah ich die Sennheiser dann bei m-electronics für CHF 58,- Etwas teuer als bei einer Bestellung im Netz, aber immer noch preiswerter als im Amiland, dort verlangen die rund USD 80 siehe review

hot track

flog — 2007-04-03T20:39:00Z

Parov Stelar is one of my favourite DJs and Producer at the moment, a friend of mine just showed me this new track called JET SET (turn up the volume b4 you start the player on the site!). Electronica vom Feinsten!

streetforward

flog — 2006-12-19T14:46:00Z

Actually I am a big fan of the "customized electronic music" platform streetforward, I orderd more then 15 CDs in the last two years, there are 4000 tracks to make your own compilation - so it ist the perfect (x-mas) gift. And it is personal too: you can choose different designs for the CD and write your own text on it. Have a look at this playlist a compiled 2day and listen to the tracks with the new Flash Player. I like it.

bossa nova

flog — 2006-12-17T11:49:00Z

My friend Paulo just sent me a link to his latest radio show about the history of BOSSA NOVA. He plays the most important (and nicest) tracks, telling you all the details in German. Check it out! and have a look at this rare music blog (obrigado, PB!).

update X-MAS 2006: Paulo just told me that there is this english version of the Bossa Nova history.

Ever heard of the music of SAINT PRIVAT? Really nice music, a bit like french chansons, directly from Vienna, directed by Waldeck. This beautiful girl performs live tonight in Vienna at the Konzerthaus (I would fly there if I could!), seems to be the realease concert for the new album SUPERLU.

Wochen Ende ahead

flog — 2006-07-14T13:48:00Z

Zwei Empfehlungen von meiner Seite für ein erholsames und angenehmes Sommer Wochenende. Erstens: ein gutes Buch, z.B. der neue Roman von Martin Suter: "Der Teufel von Mailand", hat mir als "Bündner" sehr gut gefallen, auch wenn es nicht seine beste Geschichte ist. Ach ja, zufälligerweise habe ich im Flugzeug eine alte Die Weltwoche ergattert, worin ein ausführliches Interview mit Suter drin ist, Titel: Künstlerglück. Bei der Lektüre erinnerte ich mich auch ab und zu an den Erstling von Silvio Huonder: Adalina, da geht es - wenn auch unter anderen Vorzeichen - um eine (Rück-) Reise nach Graubünden.
Zweitens: Gute Musik - eh klar. Und falls keine Zeit oder keine Lust für ein OpenAir Festival besteht, den abwechslungsreichen Stream "Gurtenfestival Radio" auf dem Rechner starten (wird vom kollaborativen Musikblog Starfrosch betrieben), sehr abwechslungsreich und mit 128kps. Enjoy!

swinging mad

flog — 2006-07-11T15:15:00Z

just heard three new tracks from Parov Stelar on soulseduction.com. Amazing!
Three new killertracks in typical "Parov Stelar - Charleston Style", guaranteed to flip the floor from sad to swingin mad.

Track 1 - Perfectly sweeps away any winter moods. The speakers deliver a stomping bassline that hurls you more and more towards the hypnotic brass hookline. A peaktime climax!

Track 2 - The title track feat. Adorable vocalist Gabriella Hänninen performing a deeply emotional song into an unconventional clubtrack. Sweet pain!

Track 3 - Tipptoes with a shuffeled groove and it´s tongue-in-cheek attitude through a smiling room. The Etage Noir crew officially anounces the fact: Parov Stelar spent one of his earlier lifes in Chicago in the nineteenthirties!
And have a look at Heavy Üskers Blog, he is playing really nice nu jazz on his podcast. His former radio project Dial Soul is now pointing to his DJ sets at the Organic club. It is worth listening to his work, he is my favourite DJ.
