		<description><![CDATA[Here we present yet another short and sweet post, this time being presented from the spotty Internet connection in South Africa. The flight, with unusually tight leg room and with a surprise free overnight pack (from South African Airways, probably the last standing airline to do so!), was made better with the in flight entertainment service of not only your pick of tv shows and movies, but also a choice of music artists picked specifically to relax your senses for the 7 hour connecting flight.

		<description><![CDATA[It was a little over three years ago. I was a hopeful contestant three rounds into my college's attempt at American Idol, and in desperate need of a new song to showcase another layer of my vocal abilities. In response to my anxious pleas, I was met with dozens of suggestions from friends, all good, but none of which I felt would accomplish what I needed: everything had been sung (or shrieked) at local dive karaoke contests. I needed a secret formula. Then, in my eleventh hour, my New Zealand-raised roommate said the sentence I'd been waiting to hear: "I know the perfect song for you" ;no one in the U.S. really knows the artist, but her music; oh my God! her voice is unbelievable!

		<description><![CDATA[It's probably safe to say this dreadful weather has taken a handsome toll on all of us, but luckily, there is a cure for what ails. With dates being unveiled at the same speed of the fallingÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦ snain (or whatever that ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…â€œwintry mixÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â of snow and rain is), the Greater Boston concert scene is picking up momentum, and not a second too soon. From marquee staples the likes of Rihanna, Sade &#38; John Legend, Rod Stewart &#38; Stevie Nicks, and Bon Jovi, to less famous powerhouses such as Ellie Goulding, Further, and Providence-based indie rockers The Low Anthem besieging local stages, Boston will be swaying and flicking those red socks-embossed lighters well through the sticky dog days of summer.

		<description><![CDATA[It might be a disease. Whether in the theater, surrounded by a spellbound audience or in my living room watching the characters of ABC's latest drama dash across my television, I'm never quite consumed by the plot. Always, always I am more tuned in to what's going on behind the scenes: soundtracks reel me in. While those around me channel laser-like focus on dialogue, character interaction, and hidden symbolism, I am busy jotting down lyrical snippets on my BlackBerry to explore later.

		<guid isPermaLink="false">http://reviewartists.com/?p=3895</guid>
		<description><![CDATA[The Imagined Village is a project started by Simon Emmerson, a three time Grammy nominee, who wanted to explore identity of traditional English folk music while acknowledging the multiculturalism in the U.K. The name of the band comes from the book The Imagined Village by Georgina Boyles which is a study of English folk traditions. They ask the question, "who decides what it is to be authentic and English and more importantly what it is that makes us proud to be English musicians"? The question is never quite answered but it comes close to, "that there is a distinctly English tradition that belongs not to royalists and imperialists, but to the people, a tradition that runs from The Diggers to The Clash."

		<description><![CDATA[I didn't watch the Grammys live this year, but thanks to the efficiency of social media, I was quite up to speed on each and every development. A few things worth discussing (or deliberating):

1. ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…â€œWho is Esperanza Spalding?ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â Question of the night the year. Yet, while all of the world's Beliebers (and nonBeliebers) are in a Twitter tizzy about an alleged musical coup d'ÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â©tat, Espe is laughing all the way to her next sold out show with a shiny, golden gramophone in hand. I'm impressed that the Academy chose to honor an unconventional nominee, at the risk of infinite backlash (Drake and Florence were nominated for Best New Artist too, Beliebers). Not that the Grammy panel cares about a swarm of prepubescent tweens.

		<description><![CDATA[Last year, I introduced you to Mike, guitarist &#038; bouzouki player for Circus Envy. They are now back with their new single Regret, which was released on 24 Jan.

Suprisingly upbeat given its title, Regret builds on the band's sound from their previous EP A New Dawn. Incorporating a distinctive fiddle line as well as the odd tin whistle in a multi-layered accompaniment, which is held together by Mike's energetic strumming - continuously driving the track forward but not being afraid to drop back as and when the lyrics demand.

Lyrically, the band have left behind the folky vibes of A New Dawn, Regret is very much a modern and original composition, which is distinctly pop-py at times. (And ever so slightly ear-wormy).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Ever since moving into my new apartment, now five months ago, I never bothered to change the presets on my radio alarm clock. As such, I wake up every morning to mostly static coming from 88.1 WMBR,  the MIT campus radio station. However, every Monday the songs come in loud and clear from their show French Toast, a show dedicated completely to French-language music. Normally in my morning stupor, I hit the snooze button about four times and don't listen to anything, but this past Monday was different. I was greeted with an incredibly happy chanson, made to make you wake up on the right side of the bed. That chanson was "Demain Sera Parfait" by Jean-Louis Aubert off his latest album Roc'Eclair.

Jean-Louis Aubert is from the band TÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â©lÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â©phone, the French version of The Rolling Stones. They lasted from 1977 to 1986 and hit huge with their eighties-taststic rock music. Since then Jean-Louis has been working solo with eight albums to himself. His solo work is less rock and more reflective, "as if each of his songs found the original virtue of music - to do good".

		<title>Unsigned, Unreal: Artists To Know Before Everyone Else &#8212; Carl Hauck</title>

		<description><![CDATA[Initially, I thought the chills rushing over me were from a lack of heat in my room, but after honing in on the reverberating chords floating in my headÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã¢â‚¬Âalas: my chills' true source was confirmed.

I don't know where Carl Hauck came from, but what I really don't know is why he's yet unsigned.

He first started toying with the guitar in third grade, and it's hard to believe that this ink-on-the-diploma's-barely-dry recent grad has produced song after successful song (from his bedroom, no less) and completed an intense circuit of tours and shows only a few years later. Flawless vocals, guitar chords at turns simple and intricate, and lyrics that even Spenser wouldn't sneeze at have been the fail-proof trinity of Hauck's not one, not two, but four widely acclaimed albums. 

I listened to his two latest, Windjammer and Counter Intelligence. And then I listened to them again. Then again. And this time it had less to do with my tendency to become obsessed with a song, album, or artist (see ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…â€œDo Studio Effects/Production A Good Song Make?ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â), but more with a hankering to pinpoint my favorite track.

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, fine: maybe all of Review Artists' readers knew of Bon Iver, but God knows prior to listening to Kanye West's "Lost In The World", I didn't. And I'm willing to bet that a sizable number of those listeners holding the million plus sold copies of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy didn't know who he was either. Or Aphex Twin, or Mike Oldfield, or King Crimson, orÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦orÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã‚Â¦: the list goes on.

There's something to be said about the decisions that Kanye West makes: sometimes misguided, often unpredictable, always the mark of a creative genius. And in the case of his inclination to work with and sample certain artists? The latter two. West has an uncanny knack for (strategic? purely impulsive?) collaboration.
