Groove Armada - Warsaw (James Curd Remix) For their inaugural Free Music Archive release, Studio 11 founders Alex Gross and Dan Scalpone caught up with James Curd, international house D.J. and creator of Greenskeepers Music.
Alex comments (orig blog post here), The history of Studio 11 and Greenskeepers dates back over a decade. As young pioneers on the Chicago music scene, Studio 11 founder Dan Scalpone and I would find ourselves at bars and pickup jams with the likes of original GK members Coban Rudish and Mark Share. So naturally, when the band needed some work on their 2005 release “Pleetch”(OM Records), Studio 11 was an obvious choice. The album was completed in Chicago and New York, and off the band went to tour the world.
James Curd And Alex Gross In The Studio Following this, time and difference reinvented the Greenskeepers. Dan caught up with James for an interview: Morning Stalker - The Bohemian Grave.

The Underscore Orkestra - Devil with the Devil. Claudio Nuñez - Life ii. Maya Solovéy - Ring Ring Ring (featuring Eric Maltz) On her self titled debut album, I:II, Maya has merged the acoustic/folk songwriting tradition into the territories of pop, bossa nova, and even the high drama of cinematic scoring.
Her music is a surprising, yet rational marriage between all these cultures--she sings in Portuguese, Spanish and her native English tongue. As a trilingual songwriter, Maya has trained herself in the art of honesty. She recognizes that certain emotions travel through lyrics that could only work sincerely in Spanish, Portuguese, or English because they fit into the languages’ cultural continuum and poetic tradition. Remarkably, Maya is able to successfully guide her different cultural influences and musical perspectives into a refined and studied genre of her own making. Revolution Void - How Exciting.

Jason Weinberger & the WCFSO - Mozart - Clarinet Concerto in A K. 622, II. Adagio. Via FMA Blog -- Jason Weinberger takes a progressive multimedia approach to his role as Artistic Director of the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Symphony, and these Creative Commons-licensed performances of Mozart, Debussy, Chabrier and Mahler are just part of his efforts to encourage audience engagement.
For example, the Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier writes of a 2009 performance at the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center: Jason Weinberger, wcfsymphony artistic director, designed a remarkably unique format in which to present Mahler’s Fifth. It was the only work of the evening, and the first half was given over to an illustrative analysis of Mahler and his symphony. The maestro himself lectured, the orchestra played excerpts of key passages, section leaders commented and the audience participated. We hear that wcfsymphony is planning some interesting media usage/mashup projects next symphony season. The Freak Fandango Orchestra - Late as Usual. Lomovolokno - Overlay Star.

James Beaudreau - Pacifico. I've been waking up with songs in my head. It's not immediate -- I get a few moments of quiet -- but when I get to the kitchen and start the coffee they pop up like dolphins. This morning it was "Pump It Up" by Elvis Costello -- no surprise there, since that's what I was listening to last night. But some of them are more mysterious. There are recurring songs: in the past two months I've awoken with Roxy Music's "Mother of Pearl" in mid-verse with bizarre regularity. And then there's the totally random tune, like the other day when I found Kenny Rodgers' "(You Picked a Fine Time to Leave Me) Lucille" waltzing through my mental sawdust and peanut shells.
