Cut Copy – In ghost colours (with Gemma Ward)

Australia´s stardestined band, Cut Copy, released their new album, In Ghost Colours. An anthem-fledged production with euphoric dance moments, m.d.m.a. reefs, diamond studded synth layers and guitar bonanzas. Not bad on the skylove lyrics and the sort of New Order robust vocal seductions. It might be the cool indie album of the year. Perfect to listen and dance with your supermodel girlfriend and pop some pills or something, maybe a milkshake. Live the pop life and be happy among the silver clouds. Lets go to Astralia with androgynous aussie barby Gemma Ward, Cut Copy will be playing and the vodkas will be of bluelight.

Profile: Terry Riley

Born in Colfax, California, 1935.

This revolutionary composer proposed new ways of exploring the artificial labyrinth of sonoric patterns. Electric mantras cyclically weaved in search of transcending the usual dimensions of recorded sound. He is considered as one of the most significant contributors to the creation and development of minimalist music, which was based in a mixture-distortion of serialism, indeterminacy and, over all, (a)tonality.

During the 60´s and 70´s, Terry Riley became famous for his “all night flights” which included sonoric improvisations of Riley’s organ harmonium and tape-delayed saxophone playing non-stop sessions that lasted from eight to twelve hours.

Influenced by Karl Heinz Stockhausen, Riley has worked, among many others, with La Monte Young, Steve Reich, Rova Saxophone Quartet and John Cale. Big league musicians like Philip Glass, Toru Takemitsu, Kronos Quartet and Scratch Orchestra, have performed his compositions.

This is the Future Sound of London:

Electronic music project, created on a probably foggy day, in Manchester, UK, around mid eighties, by a couple of friends: Brian Dougans and Garry Cobain.

Along the history of the band, the duo has maintained a really discrete and mysterious way of handling the media and their audience. Although they’re usually labeled as ambient, their music has denied every attempt on inserting them into a specific genre.
