Moondog radio interviews
March 15, 2011Comments Off
We`re big fans of Moondog`s music! We came across these fantastic radio interviews with Moondog from 1971. Check them out here!
Gordon Spencer of WBAI in New York presents a program about Louis Hardin, more popularly known as Moondog. From the 1940s up until 1974 Moondog made his living as a street musician and poet in New York City and was typically found near the jazz clubs on 52nd Street. Blind since an accident when he was 16 years old, Moondog was always recognizable in his Viking helmet playing a variety of instruments, some of his own design. In this program Moondog talks about his interests, his influences and his experiences.

Young Galaxy: Album of the week at Piccadilly Records
March 10, 2011Comments Off
For their third LP, Young Galaxy gave themselves away. “Shapeshifting”’s 11 new songs, lithe and mesmerizing, were completed at home and then sent away, across the ocean, to one of the world’s most acclaimed and secretive producers. For nine months, Dan Lissvik, half of the Swedish duo Studio, curved and refashioned these tracks; he made and remade them. In October, Lissvik sat down at his computer in Gothenburg. Young Galaxy sat down at their computer in Montreal. And across 3,500 miles, Skype-ing with a friend they have never met, Young Galaxy heard their third album for the first time. The finished album is glittering, seductive and utterly unlike anything Young Galaxy have done before. After the Polaris-nominated “Invisible Republic”, Young Galaxy were dreaming of transformation, transmutation, change. They imagined the parallel universe version of their own band, a Young Galaxy that was never ‘epic’, rarely ‘rock’ instead sexy, spacious, haunted by ghosts in silver, black and primary colours. Whereas they once wrote songs of pounding drums and cresting guitar, this time the four-piece sketched their love of New Order, the Knife and the Eurythmics.
You can order the album from Piccadilly here.
