POLIÇA
This, I can't stop listening to. Front woman Channy Leaneagh considers herself an instrument to the band, she manipulates her natural voice with an effects pedal to add layers, or create delay in her singing. It's incredible; She started in Gayngs- which is another band with a very different concept- Ryan Olson, creative mastermind behind Gayngs collaborated with Leaneagh to develop this crazy sound, though Olson is not in the band he is to be highly accredited for developing what we have here. An impressive, choreographed sound incorporating voices bass drums(there are two drummers...who play perfectly in sync.?!)and much more..
Give You the Ghost.
E L JAMES
I just started reading E L Jameses Fifty Shades of Grey. It seems to be receiving a huge response...hmm. The Poliça sound serves as a really great soundtrack to the story, always good.
MATTHEW HOLLINGS
Along with the new music, new book, I also came across new art! Stimulation is good. This is contemporary illustrator Matthew Hollings,
The drawings of are so detailed you’d swear that they were photographs that had been run through the sketch tool. Mostly focusing in on pop and rock stars, I like how Holllings combines a realistic sketch with a more abstract background to give the overall piece an artistic feel. Each piece is him, yet remains entirely unique and somehow indescribably reflective of the style of the musician he portrays.
My favorite is his Cobain, and Yorke.
