Save Your Heart 豆瓣

Save Your Heart, the 11 track sophomore full-length from cinematic post-rock powerhouse LIGHTS & MOTION, follows what critics have called "the greatest debut album in post-rock history", "perfect" and "album of the year 2013." Released in January, the band's debut Reanimation (deepelmdigital.com/album/reanimation) has received an avalanche of acclaim from both media and fans worldwide. Save Your Heart will be released worldwide on November 12, 2013 (11-12-13).
"Reanimation is undoubtedly one of the best post-rock records ever to be released and you can expect the very same of Save Your Heart. It's hard to believe that every LIGHTS & MOTION song is created and composed in real-time during late night sessions by pure accident, improvisation and inspiration...by one individual. To have such an incredible album represent our 200th release is truly the icing on the cake to our 18 year history as a purely independent label" says Deep Elm Records founder John Szuch. In a recent social media post, Szuch penned the following: "Running down my cheeks are tears of joy, respect and admiration at the utter beauty and sheer brilliance of Save Your Heart. I'm listening to the final masters Chris delivered to us today on my AKG K-240s...and what I am hearing is the most moving record I have ever heard in my entire life. That's what we specialize in here at Deep Elm: songs with the ability to move you, to inspire you, to excite and console you...songs that make you remember. It's our purpose and the reason why we have carried on against all odds for the last eighteen years. It's the reason why I'm alive. I humbly hope our music makes your soul breathe a bit easier as it does mine. After releasing 200+ albums, I can confidently say: Mission Fucking Accomplished! Kudos to Mr. Franzen for an album so passionately composed and well executed. You're making history, Christoffer."
LIGHTS & MOTION's braintrust is 25 year old self-taught multi-instrumentalist, producer, engineer, mixer and master musical savant Christoffer Franzen of Gothenburg, Sweden. Save Your Heart was produced by Christoffer Franzen, recorded and mixed at UpSweden Studio and mastered by Daniel Muhr at Mastringshuset. Christoffer plays all instruments on the album. Artwork by Elias Klingen. Backing vocals and harmonies on "Shimmer" and "Bright Eyes" by a Linnea Herlogsson. Additional harmony on "Shimmer" by Chris Andersson.
LIGHTS & MOTION has released a video for "Home" and is currently in production on a video for "The March", both which appear on the band's debut Reanimation. LIGHTS & MOTION's music is currently being featured in the movie trailers for "Lone Survivor" starring Mark Wahlberg (
) and "Homefront" starring James Franco (
) and also appears in Google's OSCARS commercial "The Year In Film" (
). Through Deep Elm's Music Licensing division, music by LIGHTS & MOTION has been also been featured in other notable projects for NBC, FosterMore, Phillips 66, The Four Seasons, Starwood Luxury Hotels, TED, The Smithsonian and more.

8.5 (12 个评分) Goldmund 类型: 轻音乐
发布日期 2008年12月31日 出版发行: 2008 Unseen Music / 2018 Inpartmaint Inc.
The Malady of Elegance is the second poetic full-length from Boston-based composer Keith Kenniff, better known to some as Helios. Taking cues from Corduroy Road, Keith again restricts himself to the piano in conjuring up his humble soundscapes and again the listener is pulled into a deep, meditative and filmic world as the notes glide to a slow, pensive meter. Keith's Two Point Discrimination EP was a collection of haunting experiments in form and sound, but The Malady of Elegance sees him back into the warming, homespun territory of Corduroy Road. That's not to say these compositions are upbeat, far from it in fact, but there are lines to be drawn to folk music, and while Keith no longer draws on the American Civil War as a primary influence, there is still the sense that the ghosts of old America haunt the keys. Since the release of Corduroy Road, Keith's music has become a staple of documentary filmmakers, feature film producers and even advertising, with Goldmund being the primary focus of this. Countless BBC documentaries and short films have been graced by his memorable compositions and needless to say, The Malady of Elegance will be equally as high-profile in these circles.

怒り、憎しみ、悲しみ、その全ての感情の消化に捧げる。世界が認めるインストバンド「Anoice」ニューアルバム日本先行リリース!!
2006年ボストンより全世界デビューして以来、ソニックユースや坂本龍一など多くのアーティストから高い評価を得るAnoiceの約3年ぶりのアルバムが完成。東京とロンドンでレコーディングされた、破壊的なまでに美しい、最高傑作にしてキャリア最大の問題作。
Different Trainsを初めて聴いた時と同じような衝撃を感じました。
この作品は私に「苦痛に背を向いてはいけない」と諭しているかのようです。
Another Happy Day 豆瓣
7.8 (17 个评分) Ólafur Arnalds
发布日期 2012年2月27日 出版发行: Erased Tapes
Icelandic composer +"lafur Arnalds releases his first Hollywood film score -- the original motion picture soundtrack for Sam Levinson's feature film debut Another Happy Day, starring Ellen Barkin and Demi Moore. In his own words: "In mid-December 2010, I was on a holiday in China when I received an email from Sam Levinson about the film. We got on the phone at, like, 4 in the morning Beijing-time and ended up talking all through the night, instantly connecting. He told me that they had been listening to my music while making the film, so the film was already very influenced by my music. However, it was not until Ellen Barkin -- the beautiful force that she is -- had pestered the producers for a week, calling them every day about how I am the right one for this film, that they finally gave in. The only catch was that it had to be done two weeks later, in the first week of January. So I ended up scoring non-stop all throughout Christmas, making my mother mad in the process."

《Melody / Summer 旋律/夏日》是来自美国马萨诸塞州波士顿的 The Tumbled Sea 下跌的海 的第二张专辑,网上有人评价说“Silence is also a Sound”,即沉默也是一种声音。专辑定位是Ambient(氛围)、Dark-ambient(黑暗氛围)、Post-rock(后摇滚)、Piano(钢琴)、Minimal(简约)。氛围的确是有,黑暗倒是不见得,简约确实很到位。不同于一般的清爽专辑的表达方式,可是夏天的味道却愈加深刻。然后多些其它元素,还好,并不显繁杂,宛如夜来香。不要怀疑曲名,确实就是这样子的,偶尔给夏天编目也不错,夏日一曲夏日二曲,还不按顺序穿插着来,因为这个夏季会不一般。
