Knob Twiddler of The Year: Daniel Lanois
For those who don’t know who Daniel Lanois is, let’s just say he produced and made U2 famous, worked a ton with Brian Eno, produced stuff for Bob Dylan, and host of other artists that really have nothing in common with each other. This guy goes on CeMeGo’s top 10 music producers list (up there with people such as Brian Eno, Trevor Horn, Todd Rundgren, etc). With his latest album, he decided to play the studio like an instrument. Obviously this needs a very good rhythm section, which he definitely has here. The sounds he is generating are pre recorded and some are sampled in the moment (from the drum or the bass) and then everything is oscillated manipulated and extrapolated. 🙂 This, of course, is right up my alley.
As always, crank it!
Michael McDonald What a Fool Will Eat
I confess. I laughed at this and sang along!
Flim & The BB’s: God I Miss This Band
Some of the best and craziest jazz ever. These guys were one of the first to DIGITALLY record music (at the birth of the Compact Disc).
This is a video of them doing the song “Toy Chest”.
I have almost every one of their albums (at least I did on cassette and some on CD).
Some of the most whistle’able tunes ever created. Guaranteed, if you listen to any of their music, you will whistle or hum it immediately after you hear it. The musicianship is astounding but the song writing is sooooooooooo sticky.
It’s also fun to watch the videos as they are such a time piece. Notice the old IBM PC AT and the first generation Macintosh behind keyboardist Billy Barber. This song is “Sideman”. Also notice how sticky the melodies are on these songs. Its like a drug!
…also couldn’t forget the song “funhouse” (so glad someone posted these on youtube).
This song stuck in my head so much, I couldn’t rest until I could at least FAKE the main theme of this song on a keyboard. It’s not that hard, but my god does the melody stick. Intoxicating!!!
Listen and get infected.
(and the sad part is. I still cant find all of their music on the internet 🙁 ) You can hear most, if not all, of their music on WMOM (of course).
