EMA

EMA at The Drunken Unicorn, 4/29/2014
It's wonderful how EMA can take songs with titles as dark and foreboding as Cthulu and Dead Celebrities and make them sound so accessible and listener-friendly.

Tweedy on Colbert



Say what you will about Jeff Tweedy, but you have to appreciate his taste in backup singers, especially when he brings Lucius on stage with him like he did on The Colbert Report last night.

Sorry about the ads.

Repetition. Repetition. Repetition. Repetition.


"Music takes place in time, but repetition beguilingly makes it knowable in the way of something outside of time. It enables us to “look” at a passage as a whole, even while it’s progressing moment by moment. But this changed perspective brought by repetition doesn’t feel like holding a score and looking at a passage’s notation as it progresses. Rather, it feels like a different way of inhabiting a passage — a different kind of orientation." - Elizabeth Hellmuth Margulis, director of the Music Cognition Lab at the University of Arkansas
