She is back! After years Grace Jones released her new album “Hurricane”. There is not much to say about it only that it includes some amazing tracks of which “Devil in my Life” is my favourite. You can listen to it on youtube by clicking here… advantage of this “video clip” - you can concentrate on the music.

“All is full of love” video directed by Chris Cunningham
Bjoerk is not everyone’s favorite and I have to admit that listening to some of her songs for a longer time can cause kind of headache :-). But there is - at least for me - no doubt of her being a great and unique singer and artist. One of my all time favorite songs is her “All is full of Love”. When I heard this track the first time and watched the video I was deeply impressed. Those pictures I was carrying in my mind for weeks… no even today I can recall some of the scenes, their aesthetic. What impressed me was the idea of two intimate robots singing the line “all is full of love” and afterwards kissing passionately. Director Chris Cunningham made one of the best video clips ever!
“one” was recorded with the following equipment:
- Apple Macintosh G4
- MOTU’s Digital Performer
- Roland XV-88
The idea of “one” was to use “A” as a key tone and pitch bend it over the time to “H”. But due to looping we kept the track in “A”. As michael and I are big fans of Brian Eno we named the track “one” as this was also our first and hopefully not last collaboration.
… it took me a while to fulfill my promise, but after weeks.. no months of listening to Inspiritualization’s music in my car I decided today to finally post. I am sorry Runi and Leo for the delay! But now it is about time to say “thank you very much” for your CD, your music, which is meanwhile a constant companion on the streets.
For those who do not know Runi and Leo here are some short infos.
Although quite a while ago, Ernst a good friend of mine, still keeps me reminding the time when we made TWICE the movie. Unfortunately this page is available in German only.
Wer sich gerne von Referenzen beeindrucken lässt, dem sei am Ende dieses Eintrags der link zu Al Slavik’s Webseite ans Herz gelegt. Ja, da finden sich in der Tat Level 42, Dominic Miller, David Clayton, Guy Chambers, Alphaville genauso wie Michael Heltau und Bauchklang. Wobei Al’s Musik .. aber am besten selbst reinhören!
