Podsafe Picks 004 – A Geranium for mano a mano by Glenn Jones

lifestylepodnetwork@gmail.com (James Williams) — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 21:01:21 +0000

Today’s show features A Geranium for mano a mano by Glenn Jones. A folk guitar track.

Jim Sullivan of the Boston Globe describes Glenn Jones as “The best guitarist you never heard of”

“Glenn Jones’ nigh-on-half-century spent steeping himself in acoustic guitar lore gleams as bright as dimes at the bottom of a fountain pool ona sunny day, only much richer. He not only knows the Takoma crew, he knows about what their inspirations knew, and he’s an elder amongst the disciples. He’s also an expressive player, a splendid composer, just the sort of artist to keep this music alive after fashion and fancy pass it by – and he’ll do it by making records such as this, ones that touch the soul as well as the ears.”

Bill Meyer, Signal to Noise

Podsafe Picks 002 – Deux Tigres by Shanghai Restoration Project

lifestylepodnetwork@gmail.com (James Williams) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 13:00:40 +0000

Today’s episode features Deux Tigres from the Shanghai Restoration Project.

Traditional Chinese instruments meet Hip-Hop & Jazz.

An experiment in cross-cultural soundscapes, “The Shanghai Restoration Project” draws its creative inspiration from the old 1930s Shanghai jazz bands, an early combination of East and West that’s become an international legend. The Project revives this exotic blend by introducing Eastern instruments and rhythms to the Western sounds of hip-hop, jazz, and pop.

The Shanghai Restoration Project debuted as MSN Music’s “New Artist of the Week” in early 2006 and became the #1 selling electronic album on the site during the month of January.

Since then, it has appeared in iTunes’ Top 20 Electronic Albums in the US, UK, Australia, Canada, Europe, and Japan, where the project was featured as the “Single of the Week” in November 2006. In April 2007, the introductory track was selected as the theme song for a worldwide advertisement campaign for Kenzo Parfums, a division of Louis Vuitton.

Recently, The Project partnered with China Records to release “Remixed and Restored Vol. 1″, remixing original recordings of well known 20th century Shanghai jazz songs.

The Shanghai Restoration Project is currently signed to Warner Music’s Independent Label Group.
