Dokumentarac "Prvi pravi ženski zvuk“ autorke Brankice Drašković pobednik je Međunarodnog festivala dokumentarnog rock filma "DORF“.
Festival "DORF" održan je u Zagrebu, Rijeci i Vinkovcima od 4. do 7. marta. Pobednik festivala, „Prvi pravi ženski zvuk“, govori o kultnoj alternativnoj rok grupi „Boje“ iz Novog Sada koje su uspeh postigle već prvencom „Dosta dosta dosta“, ali su sa radom prestale 1997. godine. Osim glavne nagrade, ovaj dokumentarac najbolji je i po mišljenju publike u delu „DORF-a“ održanom u Rijeci.
Žiri festivala činili su Igor Mirković, Gordan Nuhanović i Petar Mitrić. U njihovoj odluci navodi se da je film nagrađen za „informativan i iscrpan prikaz društveno-sociološkog i kulturnog konteksta osamdesetih godina u kojem je ponikao jedan od prvih ženskih rok sastava u tadašnjoj državi.“
Posebnu nagradu žirija „DORF-a“ osvojio je film “Radio Apokaliptiko“ Marka Cvejića iz Slovenije za „dinamičnu i dokumentarno relevantnu priču o odnosu jedne male sredine prema fenomenu hevi metala i omladinskoj subkulturi.“ Peter Braatz iz Nemačke takođe je dobitnik posebnog priznanja „za ukupan dosadašnji rad i sjajne filmove koje je snimio.“
Mark Linkous (1962 - 2010) was an American singer, songwriter and musician, best-known as leader of Sparklehorse. Linkous committed suicide with a gunshot to the heart outside a friend's house in Knoxville, Tennesee on March 6, 2010.
Linkous made his debut under the Sparklehorse name with the 1995 album vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot, which yielded the minor hit "Someday I Will Treat You Good". He went on to release three more acclaimed records of fractured, experimental alt-blues: 1999's Good Morning Spider, 2001's It's a Wonderful Life, and 2006's Dreamt for Light Years in the Belly of a Mountain, as well as the Danger Mouse/David Lynch all-star project Dark Night of the Soul and the Fennesz collaboration In the Fishtank. A voracious collaborator, Linkous also worked with PJ Harvey, Daniel Johnston, Tom Waits, and many others.
Last year, Dark Night of the Soul was released as a book and a blank CD and leaked to the internet due to a legal battle between Danger Mouse and EMI. Earlier this week, it was announced that Dark Night of the Soul would finally receive physical release this summer.
Jónsi (born April 23, 1975) is the guitarist and vocalist for the Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós. He is known for his use of a cello bow on guitar and his falsetto voice. Jónsi is blind in his right eye. He is also openly gay, and his boyfriend Alex Somers has done much of the graphic design for Sigur Rós. They also perform together as an art collaboration called Jónsi & Alex. They released their self-titled first book in November 2006, which was an embossed hardcover limited to 1000 copies, along with their first album, Riceboy Sleeps, in July 2009. Jónsi is also a vegetarian.
On December 1, 2009, Jónsi's official website, jonsi.com, was launched, in anticipation of his upcoming debut solo album, "Go," being released the week of April 5th, 2010.
In late-January 2010, Birgisson had announced that Sigur Rós was on "an indefinite hiatus," as the band had scrapped plans for a new album previously announced to be released in 2010, saying that "they were just rumors." The band has decided to take the year off, as several members of Sigur Ros recently had children, and as Jonsi's solo career has been developing.
My Bloody Valentine are an alternative rock band formed in Dublin, Ireland in 1983. The band's founding members are guitarist/singer Kevin Shields and drummer Colm Ó Cíosóig. The lineup during the band's late 80s/early 90s heyday included singer-guitarist Bilinda Butcher and bassist Debbie Googe after the band settled in London.
As My Bloody Valentine's music progressed, its use of distortion, pitch bending, and digital reverb resulted in the sound that became known as shoegazing. My Bloody Valentine's 1991 critically-acclaimed album Loveless took two years to make mostly due to funding problems. Following Loveless, My Bloody Valentine became inactive, with Shields recording and shelving several albums' worth of follow-up material. In 2007, Shields announced that the band had reunited and were recording new material.
