A bit of the auld audio collage, cut-up, scratch music and cup a tea and ting. More of this sort of shite over at NozlRecordings.

3epkano – Not now Steve

holbrook — Thu, 01 Mar 2012 21:55:59 +0000

Was listening to this track and checked out the title and thought of fontleroi as the name Steve always reminds me of fontleroi for some bizarre reason.

Anywho…I like the little arrpegio in the tune (I hope that’s the right term).. the heavy guitar I’m not so fond of. 3epkano play accompaniment to silent movies. Last year they played this track as part of their soundtrack to Pandora’s Box.

Speaking of Pandora’s Box – check out how modern Louise Brook’s look is – especially her minxiness at 8:58 in this clip below. She is shamelessly delighted that her secret tryst with her lover has been discovered by his betrothed.

The Caretaker | An empty bliss beyond this World

Lovely lovely stuff… restored 78s from the early half of the 20th century. The soundtrack to a movie you’ve never seen.

Donnacha Dennehy – Grá agus Bás (Excerpt)

fontleroi — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 04:05:11 +0000

Holbrook check out the modern tonal madness going on in this… more to follow from a different angle. The album is deadly. Mr. Dennehy teaches at Trinity

Dennehy’s music could be classified as post-minimalist and features energetic rhythms, hard-edged sounds (both acoustic and electronic) and an infectious sense of melody.

An excerpt from the performance of Grá agus Bás at the Samuel Beckett Theatre. Performed by Crash Ensemble and Afro Celt Soundsystem’s Iarla Ó Lionáird. Composed by Donnacha Dennehy.

David Bowie | Oh You Pretty Things and then David Bowie as himself

fontleroi — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 06:44:43 +0000

I really want to juxtapose these two videos because I really do feel that Bowie was such a taken-for-granted “genius” for me growing up. Then I reflect upon listening to my siblings play his shit over and over and over and I think that I’m probably one of the few lucky bastards who knows every word of every song!

How and ever; listening to all those tunes again as an adult things change…. but I do love the fact that Bowie did too!
