Heil Sufjan, normaal niet mijn muziek maar dit is echt mooi.
Seven Swans dan, de rest heb ik nog niet gehoord moet ik eerlijk zeggen

Wat een debiele naam. En wordt daarom vast niet uitgesproken als suf-jan. Als in Suf-Jan Smit. .
Maar hoe dan wel? Suffjun o.i.d.?

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

"Asthmatic Kitty is pleased to announce that we will officially release most of the unused material from the ILLINOIS album, featuring 21 songs, instrumentals, interludes and demos, including three alternate versions of Chicago, as well as cameos from Clyde Tombaugh (the man who discovered Pluto), Adlai Stevenson, Henry Darger, and Ann Landers, to name a few. We thought of calling it ILLINOIS PART II, Saul Bellow Strikes Back, or RETURN OF THE KILLER OUTTAKE, but common sense weighed in, and we decided to use the title song--THE AVALANCHE--as the centerpiece for a collection that gathers all the musical debris from an album that keeps on giving. The album features the original Illinoisemaker players, showcasing James McAlister on drums, Craig Montoro on trumpet, singers Shara Worden (My Brightest Diamond) and Katrina Kerns, and several guest appearances by singer Rosie Thomas, who, contrary to popular rumor, is NOT carrying Sufjan's baby. The new baby is due in stores July 25, 2006."
Aldus.
Dit kan nog een aardige soap worden zo. Waarschijnlijk slecht voor Sufjans Christelijke imago, zo'n baby buiten het huwelijk om.quote:Op vrijdag 7 april 2006 10:17 schreef Z het volgende:

Er is altijd een risico met dit soort rest materiaal, toch ben ik wel erg benieuwd, naar al zijn nieuwe werk eigenlijk Ik hoop dat hij binnenkort nog eens Nederland aandoet!

Sufjan to Deliver New Album, Not New Baby
Amy Phillips reports:
Folks, we've got good news and bad news.
The good news: There's a new Sufjan Stevens album coming out!
The bad news: Sufjan and Rosie Thomas are not having a baby together.
Actually, on second thought, it's all good news. While the progeny of Sufjan and Rosie might have theoretically been the Cutest Kid Ever, raising a child takes a lot of time and energy-- time and energy that could be spent writing songs! Since Sufjan's got 48 more states to go, and Rosie has all sorts of projects in the works, we're glad they will be focusing on birthing musical offspring, rather than the crying-and-bedwetting kind.
So what's the explanation for this whole crazy mess? Well, it seems that Rosie and her and Sufjan's friend and musical collaborator, Denison Witmer, decided to pull a prank on Pitchfork and poor Sufjan. We fell for it-- hell, our information came directly from the source (Rosie), was corroborated by a close friend (Denison), and even Sufjan's publicist was being slippery about it. On second thought, maybe a publicist being slippery isn't that out of the ordinary. We feel a bit silly, but think the whole thing is pretty hilarious-- and we're still confused about why this particular story would be harder on us than it must have been on Rosie and Sufjan.
Yesterday, two weeks after the rumor was floated, all three came clean.
"I kid around so often, I forgot that some one might take me seriously," Rosie wrote in an email to Pitchfork's Matthew Solarski, who originally reported the story. "Suf and I are good buddies and I just meant it in good fun."
"The response from friends and fans has been so great, it made me actually wish I really was pregnant and I swear I got so convinced myself even that I thought I was starting to experience symptoms of morning sickness. I'll be sure to thank everyone who has been so very sweet and make sure no one feels duped. I really am very sorry, please forgive me, it was all meant in good fun I swear. Please tell people if they still want to bring diapers just to make sure that they are adult size."
Sufjan issued the following:
"First of all, I would like to thank everyone who called or sent notes of congratulations about the news of my baby. I am so proud.
"Secondly, the baby is a hoax. I had nothing to do with the baby hoax. I was as shocked as everyone else about the baby. Matthew's story was so convincing I almost believed it myself.
"Thirdly, something you need to know about Rosie is that she's really weird and she's really funny. So it's no surprise that she could pull this off, this imaginary baby. But the fact is, Rosie is not carrying my baby. As far as I know, we spent quality time in the studio, not in bed. If Rosie's pregnant, it's not my baby. Maybe it's Denison's baby. Maybe it's an alien baby. I don't know. All I know is that the baby is probably going to grow up to be a clown, or a mime, or a bassoon player or something funny like that. Most babies come out crying, but Rosie's baby is going to be born laughing its butt off."
Denison added, "Rosie, Sufjan, and I are constantly joking with each other. The recording was a circus to say the least. There was more laughing than recording. It's been this way with us since the day we met.
"Pitchfork is always humorous in your writing... so we figured if you can dish it, then you can take it in good fun. I mean, out of any website to joke with, I personally think Pitchfork is the one who can successfully laugh at yourselves about it and still be taken seriously when you write other important news. That's a good thing."
Aww shucks, thanks, dude!
ANYWAY, let's get back to the truly exciting matter at hand, namely, the new Sufjan album.
Last night, Asthmatic Kitty announced that on July 25, it will release The Avalanche: Outtakes and Extras from the Illinois Album. The disc collects material originally written for Pitchfork's favorite album of last year, revisited by Sufjan in late 2005 and early 2006. It includes three versions of standout track "Chicago", songs concerning Saul Bellow, Ann Landers, Adlai Stevenson, and Henry Darger, and musical contributions from drummer James McAlister, trumpeter Craig Montoro, singers Shara Worden and Katrina Kerns, and, of course, Rosie Thomas.
In typical Sufjan fashion, the tracklist is an adventure unto itself:
01 The Avalanche
02 Dear Mr Supercomputer
03 Adlai Stevenson
04 The Vivian Girls Are Visited in the Night by Saint Dargarius and His Squadron of Benevolent Butterflies
05 Chicago (Acoustic Version)
06 The Henney Buggy Band
07 Saul Bellow
08 Carlyle Lake
09 Springfield, or Bobby Got a Shadfly Caught in His Hair
10 The Mistress Witch From McClure (Or, The Mind That Knows Itself)
11 Kaskaskia River
12 Chicago (Adult Contemporary Easy Listening Version)
13 Inaugural Pop Music for Jane Margaret Byrne
14 No Man's Land
15 The Palm Sunday Tornado Hits Crystal Lake
16 The Pick-up
17 The Perpetual Self, or "What Would Saul Alinsky Do?"
18 For Clyde Tombaugh
19 Chicago (Multiple Personality Disorder version)
20 Pittsfield
21 The Undivided Self (For Eppie and Popo)
In related news, Asthmatic Kitty (which Sufjan co-runs), recently signed the Canadian band Shapes and Sizes. Their self-titled debut album arrives in stores July 25, the same day as The Avalanche. Shapes and Sizes also have a split 7" with the Weird Weeds due out August 8 on Asthmatic Kitty.

De productie van If Songs Could Be Held is alleen wel erg gelikt bij vlagen. Benieuwd of de samenwerking met Sufjan haar eigen muziek ook wat meer een eigen karakter meegeeft.

De nummers van Sufjan die ik mooi vind zijn:
Romulus (deze staat echt op nummer 1)
Casimir Pulaski Day
To Be Alone With You
For the Windows in Paradise, for the Fatherless in Ypsilanti
Kan iemand me nog meer nummers van em aanraden die ik dan waarschijnlijk ook wel goed zal vinden?

Sister
Zomaar wat suggesties, maar eigenlijk vooral de eerste die ik noemde.
En bedankt voor de link, Z! Het nummer heeft me nog niet echt weten te pakken, maar dat komt vanzelf wel.
En anders wel Detroit en Chicago.
Sufjan is ook erg goed in het maken van mooie liedjes over niet zo vrolijke onderwerpen, zoals seriemoordenaars, volkerenmoord, ongeneeslijke ziektes, urban decay en echtscheidingen.

Het bevestigt weer eens de stelling dat vrouwen een negatieve invloed op creatieve output hebben....

Hey wat grappig dat ik dit hier tegen kom, ik vind maar een paar nummers speciaal waaronder Chicago(beetje druk maar in de juiste stemming), Come on! Feel the Illinoise, Concerning the UFO Sighting Near Highland en de rest van de rustige nummers zijn ook wel relax, heb maar 2 albums trouwens.
Ik kom dit soort muziek en andere mooie muziek tegen via het internet radio station www.radioparadise.com .
