Goldfrapp recently wrapped their score to the new John Lennon biopic titled Nowhere Boy. Alison and Gregory recorded the strings with a full orchestra at Abbey Road Studios. The film, which tells the story of Lennon as a boy and...
Context is everything, for everyone. So say the scientists . Classical music, for example, can greatly shape cognitive development in infants . But we can’t all be reared beneath suspended Baby Einstein mobiles, swaddled in fair trade cotton. Enhanced personal development via music, however, needn’t cease at infancy or be exclusive to a slivered population of the planet. One organization...

Back in September, we broke news that Goldfrapp was scoring the upcoming film surrounding John Lennon's early life, Nowhere Boy . Sadly, it seems as though it's only being released in the UK, on Christmas Day no less. So lucky, you, ya Brits! At least today, we've got the trailer for the biopic, or shall we say, bi-epic? Puns! Sure we're feeling a little silly this afternoon, but we're also feeling...
I watched The Man With The Golden Gun yesterday for the first time in years. Not one of the better Bond movies: too much lazy humour and cheesiness ( especially from Roger Moore, of course ). The film's saving graces for me were the legendary Christopher Lee, as suave and sophisticated as ever, playing extra-nippled master assassin Scaramanga, and also the following two gorgeous actresses: Britt Ekland...
I'm so infatuated with MY GOLD MASK after seeing them perform at Sheena Beaston + The Culture of Me 's CMJ Showcase party the other night. They discovered a piece of gold. The wailing of Allison Goldfrapp (you know, when you think she'll explode!) and the rawness of a 'girl with drum' like The White Stripes create a high energy performance on stage and record. We've got some great videos from the...
I haven't bothered with Peaches , regretfully, since the Fatherfucker album, but new single I Feel Cream totally blew me away a matter of seconds ago. A contender for Diva Incarnate single of the year - it seriously puts Goldfrapp to shame (a lazy diss, but totally worth it).
Goldfrapp have scored the soundtrack for the forthcoming John Lennon movie biopic due out later this year. The film, entitled ‘ Nowehere Boy ‘, was directed by first time director Sam Taylor-Wood . Based on the book ‘ Imagine This: Growing Up With My Brother John Lennon ‘ is set to hit theaters December 25 (UK). The film revolves around Lennon ’s child hood and young...
Super700 made one of my favorite albums of 2009. And I've been ignoring them for months. I received an email back in March telling me about this Berlin band releasing their newest album, “Lovebites.” I marked it and told myself I would go back to it. If I had listened to it then, I would have been enjoying their infectious and addictive dark pop anthems for months. Live and learn. Anyway,...
Every now and then you hear a piece of music that comes to you with no reference points, no baggage, no history, just as a fully formed hymn that makes you stop everything you are doing. Diamonds On A Boat by Samuel and the Dragon is one such piece of music. Formed out of a brooding, haunting late night electronic landscape, a film reel rolling in the background and a plaintive soulful male vocal,...
