"Wataridori" by Cornelius was featured on MOG yesterday. It was the featured video in the MOGtv box (on the front page of MOG) and now it is featured on RCRD LBL, where you can get it as a legal, free download! Cornelius is a Japanese electronic music composer and according to RCRD LBL:Cornelius is one of the founders of Shubuya-kei, the alternative Tokyo rock movement that spawned some of ou...
We will see you on Wednesday at the Metro, Chicago. We hear it's very cold! Here are some photos from the last time we played Chicago in 2007. It was not as cold then.
there is a limited edition vinyl ep called GUM that is available starting tomorrow from our U.S. record label Everloving. Friends like Petra Haden, The Books, Ryuichi Sakamoto and Prefuse 73 make appearances. Petra Haden even does an a capella version of "Music" in Japanese!the vinyl comes with high quality mp3 downloads of the tracks, and you can also buy it digitally on itunes.
I don't know why I wasn't made aware of this, but eclectic electronic cultural mish mash musician, Cornelius, has his own page here on Mog!http://mog.com/CorneliusAnd he's just posted a video of a trailer for his world tour. I only have the album "Fantasma", and have not seen how his normal (a term used very loosely for an individual such as Cornelius) stage show is, but this one includes a fu...
I really do not know much about Cornelius a former Matador Records alumni. I stumbled upon this track a few weeks ago from a Sterogum post. I downloaded the track and it sat on my computer until last Friday when I actually got a chance to sit and listen to it. After hearing Point of View Point for the first time I decided I have got to hear this on headphones. What a great song. The panning is ...
Cornelius is another funky musician who has made something of a name of himself with his eccentric musical style. He recently, after a very long musical lull, came out with a new album, entitled 'Sensuous'. The new LP is par for his particular course; it's great chilling music (if you don't mind odd) and is a musical buffet in a world of one-course McAlbums.Still, my favorite Cornelius album to...
I originally did a post of videos for Cornelius's last album Sensuous here http://mog.com/fistula_spume/blog_post/45328. There's a new one out for the track "Omstart" and it's visually delicious. It has a valium-like effect on the brain but it's still great. There's this multi layered voice part in the song that reminds me of 10CC's "I'm Not In Love".
I saw Cornelius tonight at Webster Hall. It was awesome. If you like Cornelius (or not), go. I think the last US show is 5/11 in Philly. Their show is synchronized with video to a point that i've never experienced. If you have ever seen caribou, think about it like that, but not animated, and way way more complex. The smallest little thing the bass player would do, for example, would corr...
Ok. I am so elated that there is a new Cornelius album out. I just found out about it yesterday. I went to YouTube to see if there were vids out there. Most of the album has a video. Check it out. These videos are off the visual charts. Way cool stuff. Can't wait to get off my music purchase wagon to get these. I was going to post all the videos but I think putting 8 videos on one post...

Well there's no time like the present to post this. I wanted to thank "Hello Mimi":http://mog.com/Hello_Mimi for the very fun mix I received for Secret Santa. The packaging was very cool with fun pics of her dog Lexy in a devil outfit and cat Blue sniffing a Hello Kitty Devil Kitty X-Mas tree. The cd itself had an excellent Devil Kitty full color pic on the cover. There was a fun write up f...
