Krautrock - the Rebirth of Germany is a BBC4 documentary on the mystical electronic music British rock critics dubbed "Krautrock" (which is a bit like calling Alberto Camerini a "Woprocker"). Directed by Ben Whalley, the film is a companion to the one I linked the other day about UK synthpop, Synth Britannia . Does anyone else see the influence of Adam Curtis here? The voice-over...

Xbox 360/PS3/Wii/DS, £29.99 - £39.99, cert: 7+, Warner Bros Someone at Lego really deserves a bonus. They're not the most obvious toy company to embrace the world of video gaming but not only have they done it, they've done it well and continue to put their own highly endearing spin on family gaming. After the successful film franchises, they've now turned their attention to the Rock Band...

Apparently Robbie Williams decided to check himself into rehab because he didn't want to die young a lose the banality, but also inspiring excited-ness, or everyday life: we wanted to live, and get married and have children and see the sky and the sun and the news and Sex and the city and Man United games. This proclamation has been described by Lifo as the 'revitalising banality of every day life'...

Iggy Pop was appearing as the guest of honor for a party thrown by Sweat Records in Miami, FL. I was lucky enough to get to meet him and have my picture taken with him. He was really personable and easy to talk to. He's definitely the nicest celebrity I've ever met!

Vocals - Iggy Pop As well as being a fantastic songwriter, he lives the rock 'n' roll dream... or nightmare! When I was in New Order we played with the Stooges and we were so terrified to talk to Iggy, we couldn't do it.

I've watched the recent BBC 4 documentaries, Krautrock: The Rebirth of Germany and Synth Britannia , twice each. Both are well done and incredibly inspirational. Stream Krautrock below, or search for it on Google or your favorite torrent site to watch. Krautrock explores the social and political climate in post-war Germany during the 60's and 70's that led musicians to explore truly new music, with...

Sparklehorse's collaboration with Fennesz makes for a particularly dreamy and ambient installment of the In the Fishtank series. Sparklehorse's usually reclusive core member, Mark Linkous, has been relatively busy in 2009. He played a lead role in the year's magnum collaborative opus Dark Night of the Soul, an album of genius which found him working with producer Danger Mouse to provide the sonic groundwork...

A bunch of 45s! Ah the cover version, the tatty blanket of the divorced bedsit dwelling pub act? Well, with their strings and obvious classical bent, Brighton’s The Miserable Rich are unlikely to have their tinkling cello drowned out by a fat bloke in a Chelsea shirt yelling for “2 lager tops and a bag of cheese and onion, over here, chief”. However, what they should of course be...

Johnson seems to be fine. 17:21: Lovejoy snaps off a wrister from the left point. Malkin is...

The Iggy Pop version of China Girl came up on my Ipod today. If you don't know it, give it a listen. It has a far dirtier 70s sound (surprise!) than the early 80s Bowie version . I like them both quite a bit, although I find the Bowie video dubious. The story behind the Bowie version is interesting. They wrote the song together in the 70s and then Pop recorded. When Pop was in a bad place in the 80s,...

There have been a couple of videos that have caught my eye lately so I thought I’d give them some love since the death of Musical Television left a void for a forum on the art form. If you are interested in buying the video through iTunes, click the title link (where available). If you are interested in buying the song, look for a link in the analysis. Chasing Pirates – Norah Jones It hard...

Another month, another trailer for Jason Reitman’s Up in the Air courtesy of Apple. I’ve liked each successive trailer for this thing less and less – and the less I like the trailers, the more convinced I am the film is going to win the Oscar. Here we’ve got the same Iggy Pop musical cue from [...]
