You can read my Bowie review at:http://treblezine.com/reviews/2917-David_Bowie_iSelect.htmlDavid BowieiSelectAstralwerks2008My first ever memory of David Bowie was seeing him dressed up in the sorrowful pierrot's costume on Mars in the video for "Ashes to Ashes." He looked like an alien but there was something about his voice and the lyrics that stuck with me. He seemed otherworldly and strange...

Incredible.Later with Jools...

This unleashed a wild man hunt after Bowie records only to leave me disappointed with the fact that none of his records sound like this one. 'Outside' is one of the darkest records I've heard and I really dove into it for a long time. The followup 'Earthling' shares the atmosphere I might add, but 'O...

David Bowie Sings Jacques Brell
about 1 year ago

Here's a cover od David Bowie covering Jacques Brel's "Amsterdam. This cover seems to be a spot on cover of Scott Walker's from the ??Sings Jacques Brel?? album. It's a good song none the less. I wish I knew French or more people covered his work, because I love the 8 English versions of his songs that Scott Walker does - the lyrics are incredible.

John Mccain's Halloween Surprise Mix
8 months ago

There's something about Halloween that just syncs up with so much of the music that I listen to. The airy atmosphere, chilling winds and bright colors of fall just go together with rich arrangements, luminescent melodies, and poignant lyrics. Halloween also allows for a rich palette from which to carve a political pumpkin, or in this case a political cartoon. Here are a few songs to accompan...

Turns out David Bowie is helping Woody Allen muse Scarlett Johansson on her debut music album, Anywhere I Lay My Head. Bowie lent his chops on two songs on the record - "Fannin’ Street" and "Falling Down." We can only assume the collaboration came with the help of the record's producer David Sitek. Sitek is a member of TV on the Radio, whom Bowie has plugged through the years. Billboard reports...
