Blur Finally Puts An End To All Those Reunion Rumors
Tue Dec 9 2008 by Maura
This week’s NME leads with the revelation that Blur is planning to reunite, news that’s been speculated over ever since, well, the day they took a break from putting out music together. So far Damon Albarn, Graham Coxon, Alex James, and Dave Rowntree are only lined up to play one gig—next July in London’s Hyde Park—but already rumors that a Glastonbury appearance is in the cards are thick as well. “It just felt it was right again,” Albarn told the NME. “It somehow feels like there’s something for us to do again, we’re not completely useless or pointless, we’ve got a reason to exist.”

Since we figured the safe space in the fridge inhabited by your ketchups, your mustards, and your molding bottles of Hidden Valley Ranch was as good a way to make sense of the current musical landscape as any, we invited her to flesh out her theory for us. It’s after the jump!
Damon Albarn To Bring Africa To Englanders
Tue Oct 14 2008 by Dan Gibson
BBC’s Electric Proms feature a number of Britain’s hottest acts in various contexts, but the likely highlight is Damon Albarn’s Africa Exprez, a collaboration between African pop stars and Brits like Johnny Marr and Hard-Fi. Clearly, Albarn’s dedicated to the music of Africa, releasing quite a bit of it through his Honest Jon’s label and including Tony Allen in his The Good, The Bad, And The Queen project. But is a jam session between Baaba Maal and a guy from Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly the best way to expose a nation to the music of a continent?
