One of the string is broken.
Bonobo's fifth studio album(I disregard the last remix album as a studio album) is a matured downtempo album.
One example is "Cirrus", which its MV is like a kaleidoscope show.
Easy to listen, but with groovy beats and hint of exotic feel.
It's not just Bonobo's orchestral of different sounds - the album also feature soulful voices of singers such as Erykah Badu.
All in all, with a full glass of Bailey's on Saturday night, you won't go wrong (to chillout) with this album.
Rating: 7.5/10
To be frank I felt disappointed with Quantum of Solace, I just read again my review earlier, and my memory still feel the same as I wrote.
Now what attracted me on the next installment, was Adele's Bond theme song - emotional, grand and cool, reflected James Bond's state of mind in Casino Royale & Quantum of Solace - and the movie trailer.
Of course, this time I hope to see more destinations & gadgets - which is the very reason why I particularly love the James Bond series from 60's, which I saw innovative gadgets that I still feel awesome today.
So let the Skyfall. And it will fall before Mayan predicted it :P
The Postal Service "We Will Become Silhouettes" from Sub Pop Records on Vimeo.
I would say this is where Owl City meets The Chemical Brothers with a hint of psychedelic. Again, heard this from BFM.That's when I was sick of mainstream music on other radio stations, or with only music only station (which I could use Youtube playlist, or something like that)
The morning session, Breakfast Grill, which they will invite some top guns from many companies, be it private, public-listed or even government-sectors.
After the 'grilling' session, 3 DJs will share their opinions on the session.
Though it's very much business related - but it is a good opportunity to expose to ideas/opinions by those top guns.
It is a much neutral radio station, it even report the news covered by The Malaysia Insider, one of the good example is the progress of the Scorpine court case in France.
Thursday Evening Edition is an interesting session - audience are given a chance to call in to give their opinions on specific topics - I called in twice so far :)
Apart from that, BFM has interesting guests, such as Dr. George Lee, a Malaysian who migrated to UK, but chose to come back to serve Malaysia :) (who is also TC's favorite Malaysian Doctor)
One of Evening Editions' DJ, Uma, is an avid reader. So occasionally he will share the opinions on the books he read.
Now, just when you think BFM is all about Business, Mon - Fri 7.30PM will feature interesting sessions such as football talk, and my favorite 33 RPM (Tuesdays & Thursday) which the DJ will intro and play alternative music, ranging from 60's to recent years, that I seldom heard the names before.
There are other things that you might just need to switch to 89.9 channel to get what I mean.
But so far, listening to those talks and the alternative music do make my day :)
I hope this indie radio station will stay, it really is a hidden gem.
I heard this song on BFM.
(BFM is worth another post to blog about though)
I was impressed by the song quality as the music sounds relaxing and somewhat random.
My SoundHound couldn't find the song - so I memorised partial of the lyrics.
Googled it - et voila, it's Yuna!
Nice and I hope you'll enjoy :)
This was a song I heard few weeks ago during my lunch time @ McDonald (TMI, i know)
(Btw, I have yet to try their McCafe, looks interesting though)
The song was catchy... my sister likes it too.
But after a few days - I realised one thing, during the chorus, if you sing along with the "da da da da da da da da da da da... Hey Jude" lyrics from Hey Jude...
It MATCHES
So after I've done some Googling, it was right - the writer of the song says that he got inspired by the song "Hey Jude" actually.
Doesn't matter, still a good song.
