Franz Ferdinand презентовали новые песни на секретном концерте
Популярная шотландская группа Franz Ferdinand сыграла секретный концерт в родном Глазго, на котором представила сразу семь новых песен, сообщает New Musical Express.
Шоу состоялось в баре Admiral Bar 2 апреля. На афишах концерта значились экспериментальные рокеры Please и диджейский сет.
Выступление Franz Ferdinand заняло всего полчаса, но за это время музыканты играли только новые композиции: "Lucid Dreams", "Send Him Away", "A New Thrill", "Katherine Kiss Me", "Bite Hard", "What She Came For", "Ulysses".
Треки "A New Thrill" и "Katherine Kiss Me" шотландцы уже включали в программу своих недавних выступлений, а композиция "Ulysses" звучала на лондонской выставке албанского художника Анри Сала (Anri Sala). Остальные четыре песни стали абсолютными премьерами.
Все исполненные в Глазго композиции войдут в новый, третий альбом Franz Ferdinand, выход которого предварительно запланирован на октябрь 2008 года. По некоторым данным, первым синглом с пластинки, пока не получившей название, станет "What She Came For". Предыдущий альбом группы – "You Could Have It So Much Better" - вышел в 2005 году.
Игги Поп принял участие в записи нового, пятого по счету студийного альбома диджея Нормана Кука, более известного под псевдонимом Fatboy Slim, сообщает Digital Spy.
Музыканты пересеклись недавно на вечеринке в Майами, после чего решили поработать вместе над одним из треков с будущего диска. По словам Кука, вне сцены отец-основатель панка очень мягкий и вежливый человек, а в студии – настоящий профессионал, в связи с чем работа с ним была сплошным удовольствием.
Как утверждает Норман Кук, его новый альбом уже "готов на семь восьмых". Тем не менее, дата выхода и название диска пока не определены. Предположительно, в альбом войдут 18 композиций. Предыдущая работа Fatboy Slim – "Palookaville" – вышла в 2004 году.
Что касается Игги Попа, в прошлом году он возродил свою первую группу The Stooges, с которой записал альбом "The Weirdness".
Самая большая социальная сеть в мире MySpace объявила о создании совместного предприятия с тремя крупнейшими музыкальными лейблами – Universal Music, Sony BMG и Warner Music, сообщает Reuters.
Компании будут совместно развивать онлайн-сервис MySpace Music, предоставляя пользователям бесплатный доступ к аудиотрекам и видеоклипам, снабженным рекламой. Кроме того, планируются продажи mp3-файлов, рингтонов и билетов на концерты.
Сервис задуман как альтернатива онлайн-магазину iTunes компании Apple, являющейся монополистом на этом рынке. Финансовая сторона сделки между MySpace и музыкальными лейблами не разглашается. Последний из "большой четверки" лейблов – EMI – пока к соглашению не присоединился.
Полноценный запуск сервиса MySpace Music планируется через три-четыре месяца.

They weren't Liverpudlians...but they were 100% British! The Liverpool Five forged their tough-as-nails R&B/Beat sound in the unforgiving clubs of London and Germany, and then on concert stages across the Far East, before relocating to the US West Coast, where they set about invading America from within! Signed to RCA Victor in 1965, they recorded two powerhouse albums and a string of wild 45s, melding the heart and craft of the British Sound with the fuzz and snarl of American Garage. The Best of the Liverpool Five is an all killer-no filler collection of the group's very best rocking single and LP cuts, perfectly mastered from the original RCA Victor analog reels and dressed with detailed liner notes and loads of rare photos 'n graphics. This is a crucial document of a significant - but until now much overlooked band - that helped define the sound of raucous `60s rock & roll!

Curtis Mayfield And The Impressions: Movin' On Up 1965 - 1974 21/04/2008
Special Features We're A Winner (1972) Mighty Mighty (Spade and Whitey) (1972) We The People Who Are Darker Than Blue (1972) Move On Up (1972) Freddie's Dead (1973)
This two-hour film tells the incredible story of one of the greatest artists and most important R&B groups of all time. Also included in the documentary are 22 complete vintage television performances from The Impressions and Curtis Mayfield's solo career filmed between 1965 and 1973.
In addition to telling the history of Curtis Mayfield as an artist and the Impressions as a group, the film explores how The Impressions' music was a virtual soundtrack for the civil rights era in the '60s. In an interview filmed exclusively for the documentary, civil rights leader Ambassador Andrew Young (who worked closely with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.) speaks about the effect classic Impressions songs such as "People Get Ready," "Choice of Colours" and "We're A Winner" had on the movement, and how often their songs were sung for inspiration in churches and during marches (some led by Dr. King.)
The film also shows how Curtis Mayfield's solo work helped define the early '70s. Chuck D, leader of the rap group Public Enemy, provides context about Curtis's music as a soundtrack to the grim realities of urban life culminating with his 1972 masterpiece Superfly. In addition, Carlos Santana, speaks about Curtis Mayfield's unique genius as a songwriter, artist and teacher and also comments on the spiritual nature of his music.
Also featured in the film are Impressions Fred Cash and Sam Gooden, who discuss the history of the group, beginning with their origins in the late '50s and share incredible stories about many of their classic songs as well as give insight into Curtis as a songwriter. In addition, producer/arranger Johnny Pate speaks about the recording process of their classic songs and reminisces about the Impressions in the studio. Altheida Mayfield, Curtis's widow, provides tender insight into the personal side of Curtis, including his inspirations and aspirations as well as stories about Curtis as a husband and family man. Curtis Mayfield himself speaks through several archival interviews filmed throughout his career.
