11th Dimension (song)
"11th Dimension" is a song by Julian Casablancas and is the lead single from his debut album ''Phrazes for the Young''. It was first performed live on the talk show ''The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien'' on October 27, 2009. Pitchfork Media awarded the track as "Best New Track" and rated "11th Dimension" the 66th best song of 2009, calling it "the strongest ulian'ssounded since ''Room on Fire''. It's a blast of retro-futuristic synths, steam-rolling guitar licks, and slicing, dicing hi-hat, and the busy pulse of the production cuts through the detachment and manages to convey a sense of fun, as if he's finally enjoying the creative experience". Music video The music video for "11th Dimension" premiered on Babelgum on December 23, 2009. The video was directed by longtime Strokes collaborator Warren Fu, and was loosely inspired by Bruce Lee's ''Game of Death''. The video features Danielle Haim (the lead singer of Haim) as the drummer in the background of the video. Track li ...

Jam Session
A jam session is a relatively informal musical event, process, or activity where musicians, typically instrumentalists, play improvised solos and vamp over tunes, drones, songs, and chord progressions. To "jam" is to improvise music without extensive preparation or predefined arrangements, except for when the group is playing well-known jazz standards or covers of existing popular songs. Original jam sessions, also called "free flow sessions," are often used by musicians to develop new material (music) and find suitable arrangements. Both styles can be used simply as a social gathering and communal practice session. Jam sessions may be based upon existing songs or forms, may be loosely based on an agreed chord progression or chart suggested by one participant, or may be wholly improvisational. Jam sessions can range from very loose gatherings of amateurs to evenings where a jam session coordinator or host acts as a " gatekeeper" so that appropriate-level performers take the s ...
