Can you hear me poets of the fall mp3 download

They left no room for much else. Whether they got into 60s rock from their parents, their childhood, their college life or from wherever, very few looked to listen to much else. I understand that these were pre-music download-en-mass days.

But post or so, you'd think in a faster changing country more open to food, clothes, movies and more from the rest of the world, that given access to an unlimited monthly internet account, many people, especially younger people would seek out and listen to more kinds of music. This is only partly true. Four years ago on Myspace, I came across a girl whose site reflected that her taste in rock bordered on the fringe.

By fringe, I mean, the fringe of Calcuttan taste in rock! When we finally met, and it was great as she gave me a lot of punk that I hadn't heard before and I burnt her a bunch of CDS filled with hip-hop and reggae. I got her into hip-hop in the space of 4 days and I got to say her taste in hip-hop 4 years down the line is definitely more obscure and extreme left-field than mine. I love the culture as a whole. Coincidentally she's my neighbour in Bombay now.

The above is a rare thing. I have, in the past tried to sneak hip-hop, drum and bass, mash-ups, comedic songs and alternate cover versions of popular songs into peoples's playlists but more often than not to disappointment.

I wanted to sneak in an MGMT tune Kids but decided not to when 3 people gave me the evil eye when i went to check the play list. The people I've met with the most open and forward take on music are usually DJs and musicians themselves and people who aren't overtly snooty about their taste and preferences for books and films etc. I thought: Wow! This beats Kolkata! And in a club or a bar - I think a majority of people who usually go to bars and nightspots in this country and can afford to are usually into familiar, non-experimental music.

Increasingly I see more teenagers and people in their early 20s into indie music of some sort. There's another tribe that's steeped into electronic music of all sorts.. These crowds follow their scenes pretty meticulously. I was at a free music show once and even saw a bunch of indian emokids and goths. So maybe it will take some time but things will get better.

A band from America, called the Black Lips, played a free show here recently Reason: They're an American punk band. Girl Talk is an amazing band and Nightripper was my introduction to the one-man band. I think you had mentioned Vampire Weekend in one of your columns I lost interested in new rap for a few years. I got back into the present thanks to the almighty torrent and blogs and i got to say hip-hop flourishes You have to keep writing the column.

It's genuinely refreshing to see someone writing in a sunday magazine about music and avoiding the usual stuff. Surely people get tired reading writers hailing Coldplay as the best band of the decade etc! When people say best, they're keeping out the hordes of bands and musicians that they haven't heard a fraction of a fraction of.

These bands and musicians need a spot. In Brunch, the whole family can read it and some one will look for the music and listen. Perhaps you could even make whacky lists like Top ten albums you haven't heard of that are great to do housework to. Perhaps this column will disappear from the Sunday pages. Whatever happens, you got my ear! Aienla: Here's a bit of an info on the band called Phish.

It has recently announced they would reunite for a tour in starting with three shows at the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia. I enjoy reading your column every Sunday.

What's more the online version of the column surpasses a food column where you might get recipes but not the actual dish. Here at Download Ctrl you even get to download and watch the music. There's nothing more left to ask for. Santanu Sarkara: Sanjoy, I have been reading your articles in Brunch lately.

In fact was inspired to get on the Net and acquire some of the music that u recommended British Sea Power, Vampire Weekend etc. I listen to Radio Caroline on the Net to keep updated on the current music scene and of course the 70s music Strongly recomended to a music enthusiast like u. I didn't know still don't why the Doors's songs were so anthemic - "Republic Day fervour" is very good - their lyric was banal, the singing ordinary and the progressions were like nursery rhymes.

The turnaround of Roadhouse Blues is so obvious, it's yawn-inducing. Perhaps that accounts for its popularity: it's Coca cola posing as cocaine. Haven't heard the new bands radio only plays Himesh in Bombay , but if they evolved out of the pap we played 20 years ago I'm shocked they're listeneable. Somil Makhija: Hello there! I am an avid reader of HT, I am 16 years old. The column is fantastic. Can u please tell me that this column is all about music or it offers other things also like games, softwares etc.

Do reply so that i too can suggest what the teenagers may like to read and if needed i can also help in giving sources to download good stuff. Richa Mohan: Hi, thanks so much for starting this column.

I am a huge music buff and am always trying new sounds. I actually listened in to some of your recommendations and loved them!!!! Your column looks like a ray of hope!!! Brunch just got better! Tuki: I really liked your column in the Brunch and got me nostalgic about my college days and collecting lp's from free school street,am really looking forward to more great articled from you. We did a Grateful Dead tribute a couple of years back here in Calcutta and we got a massive turn out -just shows that Calcutta has this hard core following for music from the seventies and beyond and these people surface whenever their hero's are saluted no matter what the time or place.

I also play in a band called Krosswindz and we have been active for a long time now,we started gigging in and have been kind of trotting along occasionally stumbling and fumbling but quickly gathering our wits. You can check us out here www. Just wanted to let you know about Indiecision www. Over the last year, Indiecision has grown to become the most visited Indian indie website. Indian indie music is woefully underrepresented and Indiecision hopes to change that trend.

Do check it out, if you like Stereogum, you may like it. Great mainstream music died in the mids, and it is these and scores of other jam bands who, inspired by the great bands of the 70s and 80s, continue to bring great music to those of us who would otherwise have to be content with nostalgia.

Thank you for writing about them. Anirudh : A pretty nice article on the indie scene going around. I have listened to some indie bands like the moldy peaches and arctic monkeys and really liked them ,I was wondering about this genre not being recognised in the mainstream music industry, and I guess your article certainly relieved me.

Another thing, i also tried searching the HT website to look for the music by the artists mentioned in the article but perhaps was surprised to see the amount of stuff you have on the website which makes it really difficult to look for any particular stuff, i mean the site is jam packed, so could you please send the link to the page where you have all that music.

Sidhartha : I really like reading your column, which has made me switch my loyalty to HT from Times of India. Could you please tell me the name of the other band which u featured along with Umphrey's Mcgee Was it walter trout band. I am a great fan of ur column. Have you tried 'Poets of the fall'. Share Via.

But then when you hear it, [ sings above verse ] all of a sudden it is writing. Good writing. Those lyrics are good.

And they're not just good because of the music. They're good in a deeper way. There is a theory that people discovered emotion through music. Not that the emotions weren't already there, but that through the experience of creating music, we saw, reflected back to us, all these different emotional states, and that helped us identify and name them.

So music is the feeling words were invented to describe. The genius behind, "I may not always love you, long as there are stars above you," is … SP — It's transcribing that melody? MZ — That's what that music is.

That's literally the meaning of that music. So singing is writing. If all the emotional meaning of the words you are using as a writer come from music, or if they can be found in music as the ultimate dictionary — the real dictionary of what the words are pointing at — then how can you go about writing without knowing about singing?

If we couldn't sing, our language would be totally different. We wouldn't have a bunch of words. So when I say "Singing is writing," I'm talking about the paradox of that Brian Wilson verse; how the language of Hallmark cards can still be good. Also, take that line I mentioned from The National — "I was a comfortable kid, but I don't think about it much anymore.

A lot of people would say, "Well the big thing about lyrics you're not talking about, is that there's music happening at the same time and it's telling you how to feel or it's setting up a context," which is true, but the other idea is that music just does it faster than writing does. So if you have that line on page of a novel as a bit of dialogue, it's also in context.

The context is all the stuff that came before. If it's the first line of a novel, the context is what comes afterwards. SP — The context is the emotional delivery system. MZ — Exactly. SP — What do you think did happen when you sang the poems for this project? MZ — I don't know yet. I have no perspective on it. I could speculate that maybe some of the poem's emotional ambiguity is lost; maybe my version becomes an interpretation.

Every reading of a poem eliminates ambiguity by the way the poet reads it. There's more context. Hopefully I brought out some of the intended meaning of the poem. Maybe some of them will make more sense to people more immediately because of the music? Some of the poems will probably be more confusing. There are certain ones that have such abstract words, that it's difficult to know if they would communicate more easily without music. SP — Do you feel like a song has less capacity for ambiguity than a poem?

MZ — No, I don't. Five hundred years from now, songs could be super abstract and poems could be like nursery rhymes. Poems could be pop. At this particular time, people aren't used to hearing songs that are as ambiguous as poems.

SP — I'm always interested in this question of how do we define the function of art. It's hard to sum up in a couple words. MZ — My brother says that every poem of his is the name of an emotion and the name of the emotion is the poem. The thing I like about the poems in the Pink Thunder project — and what I wanted to see if I could do in music — is that most of them articulate this incredibly particular, accurate, heretofore undescribed experience that feels authentic and real, and that I relate to strongly.

They encapsulate those emotions, they discover a new kind of truth that has never been described before, they make more possible in the world somehow. I think there's something to that in terms of the function of art, the idea that every experience is important enough to have a work of art made about it. I agree it's a hard question to talk about, because then you get into the issue of the intention of the artist versus the experience.

In the song, "Brother Poem 1," on Pink Thunder , there are people clapping on the track and my eighteen-month-old son starts clapping when he hears it.

That's really all he gets out of it. When he hears the guitar he says, "Guitar. He's at the level of like, "Clapping! And then my brother — who wrote that poem with his friends on tour — for him, it brings back all these memories of the Poetry Bus.

So my intention is in there somewhere, but every person is listening from a totally unique point of view. That's why I'm interested in providing something, a depth that will be worth attention from wherever you're starting.

So as my son listens more, he'll realize, "Wow, there's a drum in that song too. MZ — I think you allow for ambiguity. You don't over-define things. In case of the poems on Pink Thunder , the poems are good, but if the poems were bad, or if I were setting the phone book to music, I don't know how far I'd be able to get and have it work. SP — Can you talk a little about how you picked the poems, given that none of them were written as lyrics?

What qualities attracted you? MZ — At first I just picked poems that made me want to try to write a song of them. If I didn't have a feeling from it, then maybe there wasn't corresponding music to be found? But with certain ones I would get excited. I'd think, "I want to find music for this. It's crazy how hard it is to set a one page poem. If it's through-composed and free verse, every line has to be started from scratch more or less. Longer ones were arduous to write and then it was really hard to make them not fall apart.

I also listen to Modern Warfare's soundtrack from time to time, and Mass Effect's. I didn't even think about Max Payne's! Is that the new MP3, or the old ones? And where have you seen it available? Yea I was really impressed - I think it was also my attachment to the game so when I listen to it I kind of get reminded. Friends, take control of me Stalking cross' the gallery All these pills got to operate The colour quits and all invade us There he goes again Take me to the edge again All I got is a dirty trick I'm chasin down the wolves to save ya.
