It’s fitting that a movie about gun-wielding Elvis impersonators should boast an original soundtrack that’s so criminally unoriginal. 3000 Miles to Graceland opens unpromisingly enough with the watered-down, depoliticized Rage Against the Machine-isms of (hed) Planet Earth’s “Killing Time,” before moving on to the post-Nine Inch Nails butt-rock of Filter’s “It’s Gonna Kill Me” and Nothingface’s “Bleeder.” As …
He’s one of the hardest working artists from what many call the “305” or “the Bottom.” Pitbull’s singles such as “Toma,” “Culo,” “Everybody Get Up,” “Dammit Man” and more are still club and radio hits. His classic debut album, “M.I.A.M.I.” is gold and still selling as Pitbull continues to constantly tour across the country, …
The Wizard Of Oz: 1998 Cast Recording (Madison Square Garden Cast)
How do you fill the ruby slippers of Judy Garland? That’s a question, thankfully, only Jessica Grove needs to answer. It’s difficult not to hear indelible tunes like “Over the Rainbow” and “We’re Off to See the Wizard” without thinking way back to the MGM movie version of 1939, but this touring-cast production uses unique enough music arrangements …
Though a well-publicized marriage did much to raise his celebrity profile, Guy “Mr. Madonna” Ritchie’s claim as one of the world’s most promising young filmmakers was already secure. Extending the gambit he began on Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, the English director’s handpicked collection of pop songs for his jewel heist romp Snatch is a dizzying delight …
This disc combines two of Carter Burwell’s best soundtrack efforts for the Coen brothers, Fargo and Barton Fink. It’s a study of contrasts: Fargo is filled with somber string arrangements and a full orchestra playing in minor keys. Barton Fink, meanwhile, sounds more adventurous with offbeat instrumentation (a very gamelan-sounding keyboard prevails) and a simple score that Burwell …

There’s plenty to appreciate on M.I.A.M.I. It features “That’s Nasty” (Remix) which Pitbull spits alongside Lil Jon & Latin rap titan Fat Joe. Also present is his breakout single – “Oye” from the 2 Fast 2 Furious soundtrack which rolls off the disc like a digital Brazilian carnival. Elsewhere, Bull shows the ability to ride over pimp fabulous …
Like many British producers, B12’s Mike Golding and Steve Rutter are obsessed with the music and mythology of Detroit. While their music draws primarily from European electronica, their sounds are unabashedly steeped in the rough textures and urban sci-fi concepts of the Motor City. On Time Tourists, the follow-up to 1993’s acclaimed Electro-Soma, B12 show a more evolved …
Whether it’s Caustic or Polygon Window, AFX, or just plain Richard James, the man known as Aphex Twin always writes dream-inspired music. Not pleasant, running though a field of flowers dreams, but dark, paranoid, and haunting nightmares. The third installment of Analogue Bubblebath is no exception, and continues in the same demented direction as previous volumes. Describing individual …
