I am interested in sustainable music. I want to know if it is possible to keep a band in motion across the world using the same amount of energy it would require to keep them alive (and well) at home. There was a big rush of this in the early millennium, everyone from Neil Young to Radiohead had a Biodiesel tour rig, but like most trends it only took a few years for the “green rock” to disappear from the mainstreams of information and our collective imagination.

I love this stop-motion animation by Sasufi and Redman for the Laura Marling cover of Neil Young epic, The Needle and The Damage Done.

Laura Marling’s recently released album, I Speak Because I Can, is reminiscent in parts of the subtle instrumentation and melodic integrity of classic cuts by Crosby Stills and Nash, Joni Mitchell, and Neil Young, but it comes tightly packed with an earthy pop-iness that leaves musical earworms dancing for hours after each listen. These Vodcasts of Marling and her friends touring and performing give a nice window into her colourful world. Read more

Neil Young, who invariably follows his own road, will release his new album, Fork in the Road, on April 7, inspired by the changes and challenges happening around us. Over the past few years, Young has become involved in developing different fuel possibilities and, working with Johnathan Goodwin, his LINCVOLT project using alternative energy to power his 1959 Lincoln Continental is now finished. Young recorded two videos for the song Johnny Magic in that Lincoln. Read more

The song Blasphemous Rumours by Depeche Mode is just about the most dark, beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. There’s something very compelling about it all: it’s gloomy and depressing during the verses, but then this sexy, almost hypnotically melodic chorus bursts in out of nowhere. The song came out in 1984 and is reputedly based on a true story, with singer Dave Gahan concluding at the end of it all: ‘I don’t want to start any blasphemous rumours but I think that God’s got a sick sense of humour, and when I die, I expect to find Him laughing’. Brilliant.
