I first heard this in late 2006 when it was used in a montage at the end of an episode of the short-lived (three episodes?) Ray Liotta TV crime show Smith, although I'm told it had also figured earlier on The O.C. In any case, I remember practically falling off the couch at the time and thinking it's the most bizarrely haunting thing I'd ever encountered. It's almost a whole new genre -- Android Doo-Wop, anybody?
I don’t know. I promise to give it at least one more listen. There is something there but I don’t know how much.

Imogen Heap attacks music like Juana Molina does, in a very forward facing direction.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to 21st Century music, leaving Rock & Roll in the rear view mirror! In a very good way!
Thank you Steve for the heads up on Imogen.

ReplyDeleteDon’t think of it as rock and roll. It’s something else. Can anyone tell me/us what to possibly call it?

Capt., I'm not smart enough. My friend who is a major league recording engineer has tried to explain the "New" sounds which he embraces, in respect I listen. But to say I'm not open is a mistake,- at the end of the day we have to trust our ears. Mine have 75 years of aural stimulus 🥴
ReplyDeletePS - Rick used those exact words to me - "It's something else"
Google hates me, yes this is me, Boy Howdy 😉
