iamamiwhoami – yet who is “I”?

It first went up a few weeks ago, but what was first another random,albeit interesting, teaser video, has now become a whole veritable cryptic series. I refused to write about it at the time, because it was way too obscure and… well, there was really little to write about. I don’t know why, though, but for the last couple of hours, deeply bored, I tried to unravel this whole mystery. Oh, and what a mind…

Goldfrapp: ‘Seventh Tree’

Artist name: Goldfrapp Album name: Seventh Tree Label: Mute Gender: Electronica/Ambient/Pop Release date: February 26, 2008 ZMErating: 9/10 Website: www.goldfrapp.com Well who ever thought, after making one of the most sexiest, sleazy and downright shocking album of the decade, in the form of Supernature, that Goldfrapp would release such a mellow fellow-up like the duo’s latest and forth album “Seventh Tree.” Most of Alison Goldfrapp’s and Will Gregory’s fanbase was built around the previous Black…

New Music Monday: February 25

One of my favorite electronica group, the duo of Goldfrapp are releasing their forth studio effort, titled “Seventh Tree;” a record that’s somewhat strayed a bit from their more conventional work, but in my opinion, in a better direction. It’s more soulful and alive, qualities that will definitely enlarge their already packed fan base tenfold. Having stayed, almost all of her professional life, in the shadow of his iconic brother, Janet Jackson will also release…

Goldfrapp: ‘Seventh Tree’ (album stream)

It was clear from the very start, when we saws Goldfrapp’s video for its latest single A&E, that the duo have strayed a bit from the electro sound, that defined them in Black Cherry and Supernature. The same goes with the rest of Seventh Tree, Goldfrapp’s upcoming record, set for a release next week (February 26th). Some believe the record sounds a bit boring and too poppy. I disagree, I’m quite digging it actually; it’s…

New Goldfrapp video: ‘A&E’

It’s been just a few days since we posted [tag]Goldfrapp[/tag] acoustic pop ballad “A&E” stream, that we just enjoyed and made us anxious to hear the rest of the group’s upcoming album “Seventh Tree.” The video for “A&E” is quite beautiful and calming, in perfect harmony with the actual song and seeing as it’s been direct by Douglas Wilson, whom you might remember as the director for Bat For Lashes’ terrific video for What A…

Goldfrapp stream: ‘A&E’ + new cover art

Back in autumn we introduced you to [tag]Goldfrapp[/tag]’s new forthcoming forth album “Seventh Tree,” set for release on February 25. I gave it a few premature spins and can say that it sounds quite great, a bit different from what Alison Goldfrapp and the group that shares her last name used to perform in the past, but still retaining that mellow pop extravaganza, that made  the group so big. Seventh Tree’s first single is A…

Supernature went platinum in the UK and went on to sell over a million copies…
