Quickspace Albums
Quickspace (originally Quickspace Supersport) was a London-based experimental rock band that was active between 1994 and 2005. History Shortly after the breakup of indie group Th' Faith Healers, guitarist/vocalist Tom Cullinan formed Quickspace Supersport with Sean Newsham (bass), Wendy Harper (vocals/guitar), Max Corradi (drums), and Barry Stillwell (keyboards) in London at the end of 1994. In March 1995, the group released their debut single, "Quickspace Happy Song #1", on their own Kitty Kitty Corporation label. They found friends in bands such as Sebadoh and Stereolab, both of whom they toured the U.K. with later that year. A second single "Friend" was released on the "Love Train" label, though it was on the "Superplus" EP released on Domino in October 1995 where the group's sound really began to jell. A session was also recorded for the John Peel Show on BBC Radio 1. The band then went into a brief hiatus when three of the original members left after disagreements over la ...

All Tomorrow's Parties (festival)
All Tomorrow's Parties was an organisation based in London that promoted music festivals, concerts and records throughout the world for over ten years. It was founded by Barry Hogan in 2001 in preparation for the first All Tomorrow's Parties Festival, the line-up of which was picked by Mogwai and took place at Pontins, Camber Sands, England. Named after the song "All Tomorrow's Parties" by the Velvet Underground, the festival exhibited a tendency towards post-rock, indie rock, avant-garde music, and underground hip hop, along with more traditional rock fare presented in smaller venues than typical stadium performances. It was at first a sponsorship-free festival where the organisers and artists stay in the same accommodation as the fans. It claimed to set itself apart from festivals like Reading or Glastonbury by staying intimate, non-corporate and fan-friendly. Another difference was the line-ups being chosen by significant bands or artists, resulting in unorthodox events whi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Rumours (album)
''Rumours'' is the eleventh studio album by British-American rock band Fleetwood Mac, released on 4 February 1977 by Warner Bros. Records. Largely recorded in California in 1976, it was produced by the band with Ken Caillat and Richard Dashut. The recording sessions took place in the aftermath of several relationship breakups among its members in addition to heavy drug use, both of which shaped the album's direction. Recorded with the intention of making "a pop album" that would expand on the commercial success of their self-titled 1975 album, the music of ''Rumours'' is characterized by a mix of electric and acoustic instrumentation, accented rhythms, guitars and keyboards, while its lyrics concern personal and often troubled relationships. Its release was postponed by delays in the mixing process. Following the album's release, Fleetwood Mac undertook worldwide concert tours. ''Rumours'' became the band's first number-one album on the UK Albums Chart and also topped the US ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Precious Falling
''Precious Falling'' is the second album by Quickspace, released in 1998. Critical reception ''The Independent'' called ''Precious Falling'' "a confidently diverse album, ranging from murkier, muted vocal early tracks like 'Take Away' to the country-flavoured, violin-weeping epic, 'Goodbye Precious Mountain'." ''The Sunday Times'' determined that "tunes that Stereolab would render with academic earnestness are here given a good kicking, wobbly girl-boy vocals lending everything an air of first-take euphoria." AllMusic wrote: "Most interesting are the experimental and filmic songs like 'Hadid', 'The Mountain Waltz' and 'Goodbye Precious Mountain', where the band stretch their remixing and arranging skills." ''Magnet A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field. This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, steel, nicke ...'' thought that ...
