According to a new study, our algorithm-controlled listening behavior has much more far-reaching consequences on our mind than previously thought. It’s a Song seems, in fact, slowly but surely-Format to enforce, all of the circulating Chill Playlists, and therefore, in the short or long by an absolute majority of the world’s musicians, the aim is: It is the melancholic ballad song, the wells up too much emotionally and not Do his Tagwerks bothered. This is, so to speak, the sound of the new musical ground and it rushes through all kinds of styles.

How nice that there are always outliers from the sample. In the Hip-Hop industry is, for example, the effervescent Scarlxrd. Also, he is not a happy guy, but he’s not complaining, his discontent by Autotune effects in the world, but she screams from the womb. In conjunction with his massive Trap Beats, this results in an almost Hardcore-like mixture, and stirring is than pretty much everything that is currently out of this music industry to us.

not so with the screaming, the transsexual Brazilian singer Liniker, which has released with her Band Os Caramelows just the second long-player. And it is, as if she wanted to pump her politically turbulent home country instead of tense posturing with warmth and love. It is an Album ballads, full of soft ball, but in contrast to the General Trend, these songs will not leave anyone untouched, in the heart muscle twitches. In may, Liniker e os Caramelows in Switzerland are to visit.

Elton John is not someone you want to be in the style of questions we are happy to advise. However, the man has recently made a recommendation that we join us. The British Soul singer Celeste was something Special, he said. And Celeste, the first EP is now available. The young woman from Brighton brings back the Soul in those fluffy-jazzy realm, in which he was left by Erykah Badu to their first Album. Wonderfully unfussy and free of any gefühligem frippery. And Yes, we admit it, this music also fits quite well on all of these above-mentioned relaxation Playlists.

In addition to the Beatles, probably no other has influenced the British music scene more sustainable than this gentleman moved to the end of the sixties from Los Angeles to London, and there, half-God-like veneration enjoyed. Until he passed, not entirely kitsch-free solemnity and the Pathos of his songs in more and more sinister Scenes.

No matter: Even his most experimental albums, like the amazing “Nite Flights” in 1978 – still sound today, somehow. And Bands and artists such as Nick Cave, Radiohead, The Divine Comedy or the Arctic Monkeys to give him as a decisive source of Inspiration. Sad to say – or to say it with his biggest Hit: “The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Anymore”.

Here is the obituary of Mr Sartorius and here’s Scott Walker’s rendition of Jacques Brel’s “Amsterdam”.

And to demonstrate the influence of Scott Walker, Nick Cave: “The Seventh Seal” from the year 1969:

At the beginning of March appeared his latest Album “This Is How You Smile”, which makes a sheer dreamy beauty, very dizzy.

The man from southern Florida, the son of equadorian of immigrants, it offers the soul a quiet and slightly cloudy dream-Folk, with countries psychedelic impact. The official languages are Spanish and English, and the mood varies between the shoulder twitching fatalism and heavy-blooded daydreaming.

The piece

Last Sunday celebrated Marc Hollander birthday. Obs is a round or an oval was, is not, unfortunately, identify. But no matter. The Belgians with Swiss roots, has done the world of music with his Label Crammed Discs already so much Good that he has earned a Birthday greeting.

In the commonly referred to as the year of the poor taste and poorly-operated Synthesizer verschrienen eighties, Crammed Discs was the home for those music lovers, for whom the Coolness of the New Wave to the little variety offered and the soulless boom-Pop was an abomination. Crammed Discs invented in this time, your own musical world: a New Wave, which was sometimes cool, a world of music, the anarchy of creativity was on the loose.

for example, There is the Album “Noir et blanc” by Zazou Bikaye/Cy1 from the year 1983: the first radical Fusion of African and electronic music was.

The first Hit for the label came from the group Tuxedomoon, “In a Manner of Speaking”, and was later made of the group Nouvelle Vague famous for:

The soundtrack

What new releases are stabbed in the ear? For example, the Brazilian New Wave of Terno Rei, Afro-electro of Kokoko!, Psycho-Rock E. T. Explore Me, the latest discovery of Voodoo Rhythm, again leaked from the Defeatists-God Gavin Friday and by the Austrian Ragga-dark man stereotype. A song that sounds as if came from Feist, but Marten from Billie there are. And of course, a dramatic and haunting abuse-ballad of the puerto-iLe Rican singer.
