A closer look at... The Banjo and Mike Oldfield (plus I use the word "syzyg
2008-07-29 16:50:00 Back in April, I examined at length the concept of things that are so lame, they're cool -- they go around the Coolness Continuum and move from Lame to Cool again.Things like the banjo, The Best Instrument That's So Lame It's Cool.The other day, I happened to hear a song I didn't even realize was on my iPod, but there it was: Moonshine, by Mike Oldfield:This is sort of a syzygy of Bests; it's proof that the banjo really is cool; Mike Oldfield creates great music and now it turns out he creates great music using the banjo. PLUS, Mike Oldfield already was nominated for Best Instrumental Song (Which Isn't Really An Instrumental) so now he figures into two Bests,PLUS-ER, Mike Oldfield wrote the music for The Exorcist, which is about the devil, which means that Mike Oldfield figures into two separate Best nominations and a whole theme week now, too.Based on all that, I'm going to go ahead and say that Mike Oldfield is a SuperBest; and also that the banjo is clearly one tool that c...
Mike Oldfield - Music Of The Spheres
2008-04-28 20:05:00 Sono passati 35 anni da quello straordinario album d'esordio, "Tubular Bells", che segnň l'inizio di una grande carriera per Mike Oldfield. Adesso, dopo tanto tempo e tanti gioielli musicali creati (su tutti il bellissimo brano "Moonlight Shadow" dell'83, ma decine di dischi in totale), Oldfield decide di abbandonare rock e pop per esplorare altri mondi. Il suo nuovo lavoro č, infatti, un disco di musica classica, il primo per lui di questo genere. Il titolo: ?Music Of The Spheres?. In tutto 14 brani - divisi in due parti - per orchestra, con alcuni interventi cantati della soprano Hayley Westenra e del coro. In piů, il piano č stato suonato dal pianista Lang Lang e la chitarra dallo stesso Oldfield. Lui ha concepito e prodotto l'intero lavoro, mentre l'adattamento dell'opera per essere suonata da un'orchestra č stato fatto dal compositore Karl Jenkins.Giŕ il titolo ?Music Of The Spheres? č di per sé evocativo. Come Oldfield afferma, ogni cosa in questo mondo ha una sua vibr...

Mike Oldfield - Amarok (1990)
2008-04-22 03:48:00 Mike Oldfield 1989-es lemeze, az Earth Moving, a kiadĂł nyomására elĂ©ggĂ© poposra sikeredett, ezĂ©rt Oldfield Ăşgy döntött, hogy a következĹ‘ albumot vĂ©gre kedvĂ©re fogja elkĂ©szĂteni. És Ăgy is tett, megalkotta talán legnehezebben emĂ©szthetĹ‘, egyetlen hatvan perces darabbĂłl állĂł lemezĂ©t.Az egyetlen darab azonban, amint az az ismertetĹ‘bĹ‘l kiderĂĽl, 45 kisebb, a hallgatás során elĂ©g nehezen azonosĂthatĂł rĂ©szbĹ‘l áll.Az album borĂtĂłján bekeretezve figyelmeztetĂ©s olvashatĂł: ""FigyelmeztetĂ©s: Ez a felvĂ©tel veszĂ©lyes lehet a posztĂł-fĂĽlű (cloth-eared) tökfejek egĂ©szsĂ©gĂ©re. Ha ebben az állapotban szenved, kĂ©rjĂĽk azonnal konzultáljon orvosával!""A cloath-eared szerintem jelen esetben leginkább botfĂĽlűt jelenthet.TömörĂtĂ©s/Bitrate-: 215 kb/sLetöltĂ©s/Download:[ ShareOnAll ]JelszĂł/Password: levente

Mike Oldfield y su famoso Tubular Bells
2007-05-01 20:59:00 Esta música, además de traerme recuerdos inmediatamente, consigue que salga del mundo real, que me abstraiga y disfrute como un enano. Me emociona, me conmueve, me traspone, me... no se, es algo inexplicable con algo tan limitado como es el lenguaje.
Mike Oldfield - Moonlight Shadow (1983)
2007-05-01 10:34:00 Composer Mike Oldfield rose to fame on the success of Tubular Bells, an eerie, album-length conceptual piece employed to stunning effect in the film The Exorcist. Born May 15, 1953, in Reading, England, Oldfield began his professional career at the age of 14, forming the Sallyangie folk duo with his sister Sally; a year later, the siblings issued their debut LP, Children of the Sun. By the age of 16, he was playing bass with Soft Machine founder Kevin Ayers' group the Whole World alongside experimental classical arranger David Bedford and avant-garde jazz saxophonist Lol Coxhill; within months, Oldfield was tapped to become the band's lead guitarist prior to recording the 1971 LP Shooting at the Moon.Tubular Bells, originally dubbed Opus 1, grew out of studio time gifted by Richard Branson, who at the time was running a mail-order record retail service. After its completion, Oldfield shopped the record to a series of labels, only to meet with rejection; frustrated, Branson decided...
