New Amrykahn Erykah Badu!

Daniel.Chain — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 14:39:13 +0800

Mariah Carey的最新音乐录影带”Touch my body”拍的让人咋舌, Scarlett Johansson性感的唱出单曲专辑”Falling Down”, Madonna在流行音乐界性感的坚挺着发行新专辑”Hard Candy”,等等等等，新歌排行还是女声当道。今天不提上面几位，就推荐Erykah Badu。

Erykah Badu今年2月份通过环球唱片公司正式发行她中断乐坛五年以来的第一张专辑《New Amerykah: Part One (4th World War)》，发行日当天正好是她37岁的生日。这张专辑发行上市的头一周的销量就达到了12万4千张，并获得了当周Billboard 200专辑榜的亚军。这张专辑标志着Erykah Badu充满迷幻色的黑人灵骚乐风进入一个崭新的阶段。“New Amerykah: Part One (4th World War)”的后半部分计划于今年夏季发行。

Erykah Badu在音乐作品中插入不少政治话题，她的音乐是与Rihanna泡泡糖式音乐相反的，正是拥有音乐天赋和不懈的努力，使得20世纪70年代是黑人灵骚的黄金时代。而她本人也曾讲过誓将美国社会、政治问题放到音乐作品中（当然，她不是Bjork!）。

Erykah Badu在新专辑发行后接受了美国音乐杂志Blender记者的采访，并发表在Blender 2008年5月份杂志上：看扫描的照片；4月19日在俄罗斯莫斯科的B1俱乐部演出，相关照片来这里看。

Erykah Badu生于1971年，是在上世纪70年代的灵魂乐和80年代的老式hip-hop音乐的共同影响下成长的。因此，Erykah Badu自己日后的专辑当中受这两种音乐风格的影响最大。她的音乐中运用了很多Hip-Hop的节奏和伴唱，但她的唱腔明显还是属于传统灵魂乐的。11年前，Erykah Badu和她那张杰出的处子专辑《Baduizm》令流行乐坛大吃一惊，《Baduizm》不仅被评为当年格莱美的最佳R&B专辑，Erykah Badu也被评为当年的最佳R&B女歌手。而在这张新作中，Erykah Badu依然沿用了前几张专辑的制作理念，前来助阵的制作人包括9th Wonder（Jay-Z, Nas, Mary J. Blige）、Madlib、Mike “Chav” Chavarria和R&B歌手Bilal以及在《Baduizm》和《Mama’s Gun》专辑中已同她合作过的Karriem Riggins、James Poyser和Ahmir Thompson。

英文乐评：

Lead single “Honey” and the delicate “Telephone” hint at the loose neo-soul of Erykah’s early work, but much of the album exists in a smoky haze of French horns, synth squiggles and vaguely political chants. Think Sly Stone’s There’s a Riot Goin’ On filtered through the lens of left-field hip-hop, played at a Hindu death procession and recycled for a malfunctioning video game about an Afrofuturist apocalypse. It’s a beautiful and strange album that announces a new dawn for psychedelic soul.

Moby-Last Night专辑小样(9分钟)

Daniel.Chain — Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:14:31 +0800

清明节后的天气不错，本来约了朋友去公园逛，可心想博客都没怎么更新，怎么着都得来更新一篇。最近发新专辑的艺人不少，而Moby的”Last Night”在4月1日愚人节那天意外的发行了。说起Moby,去年8月份他为”BioShock-生化奇兵”制作的游戏主题曲”Wild Little Sisters”，今年新专辑包含的电子乐元素相当丰富(Vintage electro, House, Garage and Ambient techno)，Moby当之不愧为电子圣人。

点击欣赏：■您可以在原日志中欣赏这首/些作品■

上面播放器里放的就是Moby新专辑”Last Night”的9分钟Sample，点这里下载。

英文评论：

The electronic music world’s most famous bald-headed vegan – that’d be Moby- is up to his old tricks again with Last Night. The outspoken beatsmith—who had a verbal run in with Eminem, making him an Eminen’esis—has always laid ambient beats down his own way, and nothing has changed on Last Night. The album is a body moving collection of “poptronica”: smooth electronic music that has more traditional structure than your standard beat-driven music. You know how you walk into an Abercrombie & Fitch in the local mall and the “uns uns uns” disco-dance music is cranked to deafening decibels and you can feel your gums rattling while you try to shop for a pair of jeans? Yeah, well that’s not Moby or Last Night. Rather, the album and songs like the self-explanatory “Ooh Yeah,” which features a sexy and beguiling female voice panting “Ooh Yeah” have soft, almost delicate flow and aren’t obnoxious and in your face. Moby makes electronic music with a modicum of classiness.

You can still get your groove on and engage in a little dancefloor bumpin’ and grindin’ to the thump ‘n bump first single “Alice,” as well as “Love To Move In Here.” If you need to shake your thang or have a soundtrack playing in the background while the champagne is chilling and the lights are low in the bedroom, then Last Night should be repeat constant rotation for those romantic evenings at home.

Madonna & Justin 4分钟拯救世界

Daniel.Chain — Mon, 31 Mar 2008 20:33:45 +0800

超过2个月的时间,博客处于荒废的状态,浏览人数直线下降. 在忙于工作的时候,我的心里还是很惦记这里的. 但目前工作很重要,因为要赚钱来应对天天上涨的物价,每月必花的各种费用,以及未来要买房的储蓄. 脱离音乐了的这段时间,今天抽出时间来听了近期的一些流行作品,瞬间觉得自己老了许多.

Madonna和Justin Timberlake这样的青年歌手站在一起并肩合作,真的是一点都不显老. 我就奇怪了,为什么去年的AMA没有把”最佳国际艺人”颁给Madonna. 重返乐坛后的Mariah Carey继续着她和”黑人嘻哈”的合作”,一首”Touch my body”(该曲是她下一张专辑”So Mariah”的首支单曲)又把她推上了流行榜TOP10,在瞄了一眼排行榜时,发现Madonna的这首”4 Minutes”也在榜上. 看来Justin Timberlake和Timbaland的加入很成功.

英文简评:

If anyone else built a song around the idea of saving the world in four minutes, we’d probably assume it was the result of a contractual obligation to some doomsday action flick. But this is the immortal Madonna. And with Timbaland marshaling a cavalry of trotting beats and synthesized brass, and General JT providing vocal reinforcement on the Mother of Reinvention’s latest (hip-hop!) reincarnation, we kind of think Madge really could save the world. - 评论人：Rachel Devitt

推荐欣赏: 4 Minutes (feat. Justin Timberlake & Timbaland)

歌词|Lyrics:

Madonna: Come on boy, I’ve been waiting for somebody to pick up my stroll
Justin: Well don’t waste time, give me a sign, tell me how you wanna roll
Madonna: I want somebody to speed it up for me then take it down slow
There’s enough room for both
Justin: Girl, I can handle that, you just gotta show me where it’s at.
Are you ready to go, Are you ready to go

Madonna and Justin:
If you want it, You already got it
If you’ve thought it, It better be what you want
If you feel it, It must be real just…
Say the word, and I will give you what you want

Madonna: Time is waiting
Justin: We only got 4 minutes to save the world
Madonna: No hesitating
Madonna: Grab a boy
Justin: Grab a girl
Madonna: Time is waiting
Justin: We only got 4 minutes to save the world
Madonna: No hesitating
Justin: We only got 4 minutes, 4 minutes

Keep it up …..
Madonna
You gotta get in line, hop
Tick tock tick tock tick tock
That’s right, keep it up
Keep it up, don’t….
Madonna, uh
You gotta get in line, hop
Tick tock tick tock tick tock

Madonna: Sometimes I think, what I need is a you intervention, yeah
Justin: And you know I can tell that you like it
And that it’s good, by the way that you move, ooh, hey hey
Madonna: The road to heaven, paved with good intentions, yeah
Justin: But if I got a night
At least I can say I did what I wanted to do
Tell me, how bout you?

Madonna and Justin:
If you want it, You already got it
If you’ve thought it, It better be what you want
If you feel it, It must be real just…
Say the word, and I will give you what you want

[周末] 紊乱

Daniel.Chain — Fri, 14 Mar 2008 00:22:17 +0800

周四的傍晚，下班后和两个同事打的士去市中心的一家新火锅店吃饭。（第一次用黑莓上来写东西，好不习惯。）饭桌上大家无聊的八卦着办公室里人和事，国事和天下事我们都已不再关心。比约克Bjork在上海演唱会上大喊西藏的时候，我正为工作的事忙到焦头烂额。她这次的叫喊让我顿感无所适从。

有关台湾的当下情况，我爸在二月底的某一天问我说：如果国家打仗了你怎么办？我说国家需要我就去前线。（虽然我没当过兵）后来过了一个星期他在饭桌上对我说了句：如果打仗了，你能出国就尽量出去吧。

现在爸妈已在安徽工作，可能待上一两年，想起他的一番话，我很感动。［再见我的青春！］

此文谨作黑莓手机撰写第一篇纪念。

She & Him,你为什么让我待这儿？

Daniel.Chain — Wed, 05 Mar 2008 21:18:53 +0800

从Myspace开始宣传，She & Him的出现也算是走了网络红人的路线。专辑”Volume One”的发行公司Merge唱片公司，甚至在艺人介绍页面放上了主打作品”Why do you let me stay here?” 民谣摇滚的新组合，给听音乐的人们带来惬意不少。”She”是Zooey Deschanel，”Him”是M.Ward，所谓”男女搭配干活不累”，他们的合作却是美妙(累不累这他们自己知道)。或许是民谣风为主线，无论是”She”还是”Him”，唱腔总给人乡村的感觉。(RollingStone的碟评更是列出了他们唱法近似的艺人名称)。生于美国加州的女主唱Zooey Deschanel的外表让我觉得她是英伦歌手(很漂亮). 生于波兰成长于美国加州的 M.Ward本身已是Merge唱片公司的艺人，并发行过4张专辑。

这个组合值得大家关注！现在欣赏：Why do you let me stay here? [下载]

Merge唱片公司艺人页面介绍：

She & Him is a story of musical serendipity: Zooey Deschanel and M. Ward, each renowned in their own creative fields, meet and recognize a certain shared nostalgia. The result is destined to be one of the musical highlights of the year.

Zooey and M. Ward first met to record a version of Richard and Linda Thompson’s “When I Get To The Border” for a movie soundtrack. Immediately struck by one another’s talents and finding an instant rapport, Zooey let slip that she wrote her own songs which she recorded alone at home on her computer. Somewhat shy about anyone hearing these musical morsels she eventually sent the demos to Matt who was instantly impressed. They soon reconvened at his Portland studio to begin work.

Embracing the warm sound of early analog recordings, Volume One is more than just a showcase for Zooey’s rich and endearing voice; it’s a distinctive and endlessly charming album. The songs themselves give a respectful nod to the likes of Dusty Springfield, Linda Ronstadt and The Zombies while Matt’s production gives them just the right amount of golden era sheen. Whether Zooey’s channeling Ronnie Spector as on “I Was Made For You” or joining Matt in turning The Beatles “I Should Have Known Better” into a seductive hula guitar duet, the results are always captivating.

Gnarls Barkley - Run (From the odd couple)

Daniel.Chain — Mon, 11 Feb 2008 10:06:48 +0800

今天是中国传统节日春节的大年初五，外面鞭炮声声响，Grammy音乐颁奖典礼进行着，Wordpress升级到2.3.3，Gnarls Barkely的新专辑[The Odd Couple]计划4月份发行，我最最最漂亮最亲爱的Whitney3月份要到上海了！当然，除了上面这些事情，还有N多让人快乐/悲伤/发狂/等等的事情。

Today，我只说Gnarls Barkley的这首”Run”，它在1月份的时候就已经被人泄露发布到网络上供网民下载. 网上关于他们新专辑的报道：

2006年Gnarls Barkley的那首”Crazy”，在推荐它的那篇博客文章中，我引用了下面这段评价，今天，这里依旧适用：Gnarls Barkley –“You are the best. You are the worst. You are average. Your love is a part of you. You try to give it away because you cannot bear its radiance, but you cannot separate it from yourself. To understand your fellow humans, you must understand why you give them your love. You must realize that hate is but a crime-ridden subdivision of love. You must reclaim what you never lost. You must take leave of your sanity, and yet be fully responsible for your actions.” [此段引用自Gnarls Barkley给摇滚乐评人Lester Bangs的一封信]

Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ 2008 (feat. Akon)

Daniel.Chain — Tue, 15 Jan 2008 20:48:56 +0800

现在的人们对于音乐的感觉往往会留于表面,听听音乐,甩甩头+扭扭腰,背后的种种人物已不是他们所关心的对象.至于Michael Jackson这样的时代巨星,更是容易被听觉遗忘的人物. 为什么会这样? 我也不清楚.

有人说:已经不是一个时代了…反正我是不甚听得懂MJ的songs..简单点说就是没feel…
还有人说:他想捞一票,还点厘息啊

呃,你有什么想法么? 说点话吧!

Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’ 2008 (feat. Akon) [MP3下载]

■您可以在原日志中欣赏这首/些作品■

为什么推荐这首混版歌曲,首先它是专为Michael Jackson专辑”Thriller25周年纪念”录制的,然后就是Akon的歌声.前者意义特殊,后者是因为Akon的歌声突然间觉得很配做MJ的和音哦.很奇怪的感觉.

从网上摘录了以下英文介绍,由于最近工作上翻译的任务很重,觉得很累,这里就不翻译了:

(大致讲一下内容:介绍了该纪念专辑发行的原因,发行时间,专辑内容,原专辑”Thriller”光辉历史,等等)

Epic/Legacy Recordings proudly celebrates the 25th anniversary of Michael Jackson’s Thriller, the world’s biggest-selling album of all time, with a newly expanded deluxe edition of the phenomenal record-breaking pop culture touchstone, available in the U.S. on Tuesday, February 12, 2008. The album will be available worldwide the week of February 11, 2008.The Michael Jackson Thriller 25th anniversary celebration kicks off in December 2007 with the release of a new single and continues throughout 2008 with a multi-faceted global marketing campaign featuring high-profile television, radio and online events around the world.

The Thriller - 25th Anniversary Edition will include the original album in its entirety as well as eight bonus tracks and a DVD featuring Michael Jackson’s groundbreaking short films from Thriller (”Thriller,” “Beat It,” and “Billie Jean”) and the artist’s Emmy-nominated breakout performance of “Billie Jean” from the legendary “Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever” television special (first broadcast on NBC on May 16, 1983).

The newly expanded version of Thriller premieres five tracks previously unreleased in any form: a new Kanye West remix of “Billie Jean”; a new 2008 version of “Wanna Be Startin’ Somethin’” with Akon and will.i.am; will.i.am remixes of “The Girl Is Mine” and “P.Y.T.”; and “For All Time,” a rare unreleased cut from the original Thriller recording sessions, newly mixed and mastered by Michael Jackson.

Additional bonus material on the Thriller - 25th Anniversary Edition includes “Someone In The Dark,” “Carousel,” and Michael Jackson’s original demo recording of “Billie Jean.”

The deluxe Thriller - 25th Anniversary Edition packaging contains a personal greeting from Michael Jackson to his fans penned exclusively for this special release.

Originally released in the US 25 years ago on November 30, 1982 by Epic Records, Thriller, Michael Jackson’s sixth solo album and second with producer Quincy Jones, rocketed the former child-star lead singer for the Jackson 5 into the stratosphere of international superstardom. Introducing the “robot” and the “moonwalk” into the international lexicon of clubland dance moves via the pulsing sounds of Thriller, Michael Jackson revolutionized all aspects of mainstream pop culture — from radio airwaves to the newly emerging art form of music videos — becoming the world’s most popular entertainer in the process.

The original Thriller spent an astounding 80 consecutive weeks in the American Top 10, 37 of those at #1. Seven of the album’s original nine tracks became Top 10 singles on the Billboard Hot 100 while Individual singles from Thriller reached #1 chart positions in the US, the UK, France, Italy, Australia, Denmark, Belgium, South Africa, Spain, Ireland, New Zealand and Canada.

Thriller made history as the first and only record to be America’s top-selling album two years running (1983 and 1984).

Thriller has been certified 27x platinum by the RIAA, giving it Double Diamond Award status in the US. In addition, the album has achieved Diamond or Multi-Platinum status in Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Belgium, Canada, Finland, France, Germany, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the UK. In 1985, the Guinness Book of Records named Thriller the Best Selling Album of All Time, an achievement which remains unsurpassed to this day.

In February 1984, Michael Jackson held a record-breaking 12 Grammy nominations, going on to win eight, which stands as the record for most Grammy Awards to be won by anyone in a single year. Seven of Michael’s Grammys that year were for Thriller: Album of the Year; Record of the Year (”Beat It”); Best Male Pop Vocal Performance (”Thriller”); Best Engineered Recording, Non-Classical (Thriller); Best Male Rock Vocal Performance (”Beat It”); Best Male R&B Vocal Performance (”Billie Jean”); Best R&B Song (”Billie Jean”). (Michael’s eighth Grammy that year was in the Best Recording For Children - Single or Album, Musical or Spoken category for “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial”). That same year, Michael Jackson took home eight American Music Awards and three MTV Video Music Awards. The following year, “The Making of Michael Jackson’s Thriller” took home the Best Video Album trophy at the 27th Annual Grammy Awards.

Named the “Most Successful Entertainer of All Time” by the Guinness World Records, Michael Jackson is among the most highly acclaimed and influential artists in pop culture. He was named the World Music Award’s Best-Selling Pop Male Artist of the Millennium and received the American Music Award’s Artist of the Century Award. He has been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame twice: in 1997 as a member of the Jackson 5 and as a solo artist in 2001

[周末] 单身自豪

Daniel.Chain — Thu, 10 Jan 2008 09:58:10 +0800

哇，现在写周末真的好困难。时间不够用，就算有时间，也没有心思写。郁闷！臭豆的活动话题我还没有完成，现在却已在写飞递(Feedsky)的话题，感觉有些内疚。争取吧！继续努力中！

说到单身，记得从大二下半学期的时候”单身贵族”就已经成为自己的口头禅，逢人就说单身很爽。毕业工作后，每逢周末就会约好几个朋友去泡吧唱歌跳舞什么的，美滋滋的日子就这么过了将近1年。一个人在外，总会有寂寞时，别人说”一个人的生活太孤独，两人的世界太拥挤”，可到了这种时候，”两个人的世界”就不会拥挤了，因为可以消除心里的寂寞感。

当一个人的时候，我可以无拘无束的自由生活，工作下班后，回家可以躺在床上，听电脑音响里传出的音乐，看看书，上网玩玩游戏。有时候玩到深夜回家，可以倒头就睡，而且睡到第二天下午/甚至晚上都不会有人在你旁边唠叨。可，就是那个状态下，我却喜欢买个戒指戴在手上，好看的很！

在时代广场的大厅门口，曾有家首饰店卖银饰，刚好有戒指，男式戒指款式不是很多，但漂亮的很。买了两次，其中一次买的，戴了回老家，做家务时落在厨房里，被我妈给戴了去。另外一次是和朋友拜拜时给他带走了。后来就没有再买过。

在网上闲转的时候，看到了有卖单身戒指的店。颜色挺亮眼：

“…… 我们也渴望爱情。
期盼找到自己的良人，晚归的时候，有一盏温暖的灯在等候。但是，无论是怎样的生活，我们都充满热情与希望，享受生活，快乐生活。我们是骄傲，自豪的单身族。在享受着快乐单身生活的同时，慢慢等待我们的爱情。”

上面是他们的宣传词里面的一小段。新年过节，我们都兴送礼，像买什么营养品啊，纪念品啊什么的，有没有买这种单身戒指送人的呀？它与普通戒指外表就有极大的区别，蓝色的戒指哦，不会让人产生误解，还能解决某些人送礼不知送什么好的困扰。

尽管我现在不是单身(从某个角度来说,对某些人来说,我可能还是单身汉)，哦，买这样一只戒指，送给自己和朋友真的挺爽！

最后来看看单身戒指的设计理念：

Singelringen 是瑞典传统工艺与现代 casual 概念的融合，将现代感而显眼的蓝绿色玻璃纤维，接合在925纯银內戒上，并开一个弦形的弧口，让內层的银戒从中透出光泽，象征对于新朋友，甚至于新的浪漫关系的开放态度。走在路上，很难不被这样特別的色泽所吸引。

弦形的弧口向外，象证开放的态度，当两个戒指合在一起时，可以成为一个漂亮的圆，也許，这就是你的另一半真命天子。

每一只单身戒都有独一无二的编号，你可以知道自己是全球第几号 Singelringer ，并且与全世界的单身者展开有趣的邂逅。

[专题] 50th Grammy Awards, 2008

作为全球关注度最高音乐盛会之一的Grammy音乐颁奖典礼，终于即将迎来它的第50个年头。尽管在过去的几年里，曾一度被人质疑审评员的音乐品味有些过于守旧，但随着时间的证明, Grammy自身也在不断的变换与改进，让自己保持着世界级的声誉。

就在第50届Grammy音乐奖颁奖典礼进行时，我们一同来欣赏本届入围音乐作品：首先推荐Amy Winehouse的作品”Back to Black“和”Rehab“她的出现是2007年欧美音乐乐坛的最耀眼的一颗新星，她让黑人音乐最初的魅力展示的淋漓尽致，这也是为什么Amy Winehouse能够在本届Grammy上荣获多项大奖。对于本届乡村歌手Carrie Underwood，我个人觉得，Grammy在预想做音乐流行浪潮领头人的情况下，不得不做出的选择。乡村音乐缺少新人，在紧跟时代步伐的同时要将乡村音乐精髓保持，确是不易。希望Carrie Underwood今后创作出更多更好的作品。

Sia,some electric birds have real problem

Daniel.Chain — Fri, 28 Dec 2007 11:24:13 +0800

提起Sia,便让我又想起Music Heaven. 没有天堂的日子,生活一样继续.只是会偶尔觉得丢失了一个聆听的来源。2005年的MH音乐天堂某一期推荐了Sia的”Sunday“,那似乎是国内第一个介绍Sia的音乐杂志及媒体(可以称为媒体么？) 间隔N个月后,我在[耳朵发布]里推荐了Sia的两首歌曲。

明年的1月8日, Sia的新专辑”Some people have real problem”(专辑封面见下左)将正式发行。现在外漏的是其中的一首”Electric Brid”。你可以去Sia的SiaSpace页面欣赏，也可以来这里免费下载整张专辑：MP3下载[请购买正版专辑]

SiA,全名Sia Kate Isobelle Furler.生长在澳大利亚.父母均从事音乐工作,”I only owned 2 CDs: a Jackson 5 anthology and Jeff Buckley’s Grace.”SiA在真正从事音乐之前,她听的音乐真的很少很少.因为在和Zero 7一起巡回演出之后,SiA才非常认真的去听各种不同的音乐作品. 2004年1月12日在英国,SiA创作完成并发行了自己的第一张音乐专辑”Color the small one”.专辑中最为成功的作品有3首“Sunday” “Breath Me” “Don’t Bring Me Down”.而我本人却非常喜欢这三首中的后两首,还有另外一首“Moon”.

“It’s nice, conventional piano pop sung with a great voice, but really we’re waiting for the Atlas Sound remix.”对于Sia的这首新歌,Stereogum的音乐评论觉得混音版的发行会比较让人期待。你觉得如何呢？
