Joss Stone announces new album

by on Oct.11, 2009, under Music

joss stone Joss Stone has announced that she will release her new album Colour Me Free on November 2.

The record, which is produced by Jonathan Shorten and Conor Reeves, was written and recorded at Mama Stones, her mother’s live music venue in Wellington.

“I kind of woke up one morning and wanted to make an album. It’s very, very raw. It’s a bunch of musicians, writers and myself, and we’re just jamming, basically,” Joss Stone said.

The 22-year-old, who previously criticised her record label EMI for delaying the release of the disc, insisted that she did not rush the recording process.

“This time, the album was not dictated or forced, it was an organic process where each musician was given the freedom to create their sound,” Joss Stone said.

“I co-produced this record; it’s an honest and accurate representation of where I am as an artist and person right now. I am really proud of the music and excited to have people finally hear the songs.”

Stone will release lead single ‘Free Me’ on November 8.

Joss Stone (F/ Nas) – “Governmentalist”

by on Oct.10, 2009, under Music

On NBC’s Late Night with Carson Daly, Joss Stone said that she recorded the track after fictitious reports surfaced last year that she was writing a campaign song for President Barack Obama. The song is really about the ineptitude of the British government but Joss Stone feels the song works just as well with what’s going on politically in America.

Michael Bublé’s Crazy Love Hits Shelves October 9, 2009

by on Sep.27, 2009, under Music

Michael Bublé, who has sold over 22 million CDs worldwide, released his last album back in 2007, the Grammy-winning Call Me Irresponsible. This record, his third, was a #1 album in more than 15 countries. No stranger to success, he decided to do things a little differently for his next album.

Bublé takes a much more introspective approach to each song on the new album. “Basically, I sang the truth – made each song autobiographical – and you can definitely hear the difference,” he says. “The musicians and I all sat in the room, recorded it right from the floor and we let the sounds all come together and bleed into one another. It’s not contrived. Not too perfect. It just feels really good.”

He recorded the album in multiple recording studios over the last six months, working in L.A., Brooklyn, New York, and his home town of Vancouver. Working with producers David Foster, Bob Rock, and Humberto Gatica, it includes 13 songs, including such standards as “You’re Nobody Till Somebody Loves You,” “Georgia On My Mind,” and Van Morrison’s “Crazy Love.” His first single “Haven’t Met You Yet” was the first single to hit the radio back in August.

Here’s the first video from Crazy Love for “Haven’t Met You Yet”:

Abbey Road (Remastered) – The Beatles

by on Sep.10, 2009, under Music

For years I accepted on faith that the best album ever made was Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. While that album remains a stunning example of the summer of love, the true trinity of the Beatles oeuvre are Rubber Soul, Revolver and Abbey Road–with the nod going to Abbey Road as the Beatles final studio album.

The only thing I knew about The Beatles’ “Abbey Road” was the goofy album cover where all four band members are crossing the street. Now I consider it one of the best, most innovative rock ‘n’ roll albums ever released. And I mean innovative and fresh by today’s standards, not just the standards of the late 1960s. These guys practically invented the art of making melodic rock music, and they certainly weren’t afraid to experiment with sounds and ideas.

Abbey Road (Remastered)” offers something for everybody; a 90-year-old senior citizen could enjoy this album as easily as a 5-year-old kid. The sounds and tastes of this record are all over the map. For instance, whereas “Come Together” is a serious rock anthem with a heavy message, songs like “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” (Lennon-McCartney) and “Octopus’s Garden” (Ringo Starr) are silly pop nuggets. Romance is also present, like on George Harrison’s beautiful “Something” (which includes a swooning string section), and on the dramatic “Oh! Darling,” where Paul McCartney belts out the lyrics in his most sincere tone. Overall, there’s a boyish, innocent quality to these songs, especially lyrically, yet a sophistication to the sound and musical development. In short, the Beatles, as well as their producer, George Martin, possessed the resources, talent, musicality and what must have been a sense of finality to create one of the best records ever.

Check Out this…so groovy

Though the Beatles were on their way out with “Abbey Road,” the seven-minute-plus “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” is reminiscent of another British band on their way in back in 1969, Led Zeppelin. The song features longing lyrics and an indelibly heavy guitar riff in the style of Jimmy Page before he became a household name. Conversely, songs like “Because” and “Sun King” are positively airy and lightweight, unbelievably catchy. The Beatles thrived on hazy, dreamy songs that featured their head-in-the-cloud choruses and melting melodies, making it all seem as easy as a summer breeze.

Beginning at “You Never Give Me Your Money,” the album transforms into a hot-potato medley of one sublimely melodic song after another, a shockingly creative assembly line of tracks that magically blend together, thanks mostly to producer George Martin. It’s comparable to a movie score with words or a spur-of-the moment “Best of” mixture. McCartney and Lennon deserve the lion’s share of credit for creating this 20-minute joyride, on the second side of one album. Despite the inevitable end of the band, the guys sound excited, joyful, happy to be alive, inspiring, a little crazy and willing to experiment on their way out.

As the music on “Abbey Road (Remastered)” mutates from one moment to the next — sometimes in the space of just one song — the lustrous sounds and sky-high choruses mix perfectly with the weightless lyrics. As the album winds down and such greats as “Mr. Mustard” and the punk-ish “Polythene Pam” rage on, the band opt to go out on a positive and touching message that truly resonates. Overall, I understand now why many have said that there are the Beatles and then there is everyone else.

Jay Z – The Blueprint 3

by on Sep.06, 2009, under Music

Jay Z- The Blueprint 3 International superstar and multi-media mogul, JAY-Z confirms the most highly speculated date in recent music history. Friday, September 11, 2009 is the official release date for the eagerly anticipated The Blueprint 3
. The follow up to JAY-Z’s instant classic Blueprint (2001) and the critically acclaimed Blueprint 2 (2002); The Blueprint 3 is the final installment in the The Blueprint series. The Blueprint 3 is a Roc Nation / Live Nation release distributed through Atlantic Records. The album’s first single “D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)” has exploded since it’s June release. Performed live on the BET Awards on June 28th, the song’s video premiered immediately following the show to great acclaim. Second single “Run This Town” with Rihanna and Kanye West was just serviced to radio. Since 1995, Jay-Z has dominated the rap industry and set the trends for a generation. Over his career, he has sold more than 40 million albums and sold out arenas worldwide. Winner of 7 Grammy Awards, his 10 No. 1 albums tie him with Elvis Presley and place him behind only The Beatles for the most of all-time. He is the founder and chairman of Rocawear, co-owner of the NJ Nets, 40/40 Sports Clubs and co-owner of the skin care and beauty line Carol’s Daughter. Jay-Z became the first non-athlete to enter into a major footwear coventure with his S. Carter line for Reebok and in addition, continues his philanthropic work through his Water For LIfe initiative and Shawn Carter Scholarship Foundation. In 2008, JAY-Z entered into a partnership with Live Nation forming Roc Nation. This groundbreaking new division, headed by Shawn “JAY-Z” Carter creates unique management, publishing and distribution deals with artists and songwriters.

Kanye West is in the producer’s chair for seven tracks, and it’s clear he was reaching for the same energy level as the original Blueprint (which he produced). “What We Talkin’ About” begins the album with a wave of surging, oppressive synth, while Jay-Z enumerates with an intriguing lack of detail what he’s said and what’s been said about him, ending with a nod to Barack Obama and the future. West also produced the second, “Thank You,” and while it starts with typical Jay-Hovah brio, the last verse piles on more witty criticism of unnamed rappers. There’s plenty more lyrical violence to come, but most of the targets are much safer than they were eight years earlier. (Jay doesn’t sound very convincing when he claims in “DOA (Death of Auto-Tune)” that it’s not “politically correct” to rail against one of the most reviled trends in pop music during the 2000s.)

Listen D.O.A. (Death Of Auto-Tune)!

From there, he branches out with a calculating finesse, drawing in certain demographics via a roster of guests, from Young Jeezy (hardcore) to Drake (teens) to Kid Cudi (the backpacker crowd). The king of the crossovers here is “Empire State of Mind,” a New York flag-waver with plenty of landmark name-dropping that turns into a great anthem with help on the chorus from Alicia Keys. The Blueprint 3 isn’t a one-man tour de force like the first; Jay is upstaged a time or two by his guests, and while the productions are stellar throughout — Timbaland appears three times, and NO ID gets multiple credits also — it’s clear there’s less on Jay’s mind this time. Not tuned out like on Kingdom Come, but more content with his dominance as a rap godfather in 2009.

Colbie Caillat’s second disc ” Breakthrough” hits No. 1

by on Sep.04, 2009, under Music

Colbie Caillat Colbie Caillat practiced a little bit of reverse psychology as she waited for the numbers to come in for her sophomore album, “Breakthrough” — which is No. 1 on this week’s Billboard 200 with first-week sales of 106,000.

“You always hope for the best, but you never actually think it’s going to happen,” Caillat told Billboard.com from England, where she’s currently touring. “I never want to get my hopes up. Everyone kept saying, ‘I think it’s gonna be No. 1. It’s gonna be No. 1. It looks like it,’ and I just kept trying to ignore it ’cause I didn’t want it to not happen.

“And now that it is happening, I can’t believe it. I’m so excited. I’m so thankful. I’ve grown up a lot over the past two years and I…just knew exactly what I wanted for the record and I was able to express that to my producers and the people I wrote songs with. To be able to do it the way I wanted and it actually turned out the way I wanted feels like such an accomplishment.”

Caillat’s 2007 debut, “Coco,” peaked at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 and has been certified double-platinum. “Breakthrough’s” first single, “Fallin’ For You,” has reached No. 12 on the Hot 100, and two tracks — “Begin Again” and “You Got Me” — are under consideration for the follow-up, with “Fearless” Caillat’s personal choice for a third single.

Colbie Caillat said she hopes to show even more of that growth when she hits the road in North American with Howie Day to support “Breakthrough,” starting Sept. 17 at the House of Blues in Anaheim, Calif. “I know I was very timid on the last tour,” she acknowledged. “I wasn’t a performer yet. I didn’t know how to do it. I was very shy on stage…But I’ve really learned a lot. That’s actually why I named my album ‘Breakthrough;’ I broke through my fear of performing and having stage fright. So now I’m being me and laughing and dancing with my band and telling the crowd about my songs.”

During her brief break between tours Caillat is planning to record a pair of Christmas songs, “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and “Merry Christmas, Baby.” One will be used for a Special Olympics compilation, while the other will be held because “something may just come up this year for Christmas songs or radio and I’m going to be on tour, so I won’t have time to record it. I may as well do it now and be ahead of the game.” She and collaborator Stacy Blue, who co-wrote Caillat’s 2007 holiday single “Misteltoe,” are also planning to write some new Christmas songs.
