One of the most moving releases I heard in 2010 was the 90-minute cassette entitled Ornitheology, by a mysterious individual by the name Chubby Wolf. Two long, 40-minute long songs that recalled beautifully the best moments of Brian Eno, yet the two songs struck me as something more…more. In doing research, I discovered two things about this mysterious band: a. that Chubby Wolf was the moniker of Danielle Baquet-Long, who performed in a group entitled Celer with her husband, Will Long, and, b. sadly, that Danielle had passed away suddenly, at the tragically young age of 26."
Joseph Kyle of The Big Takeover interviewed Will Long, providing an overview of Danielle's life and art. Much of her music, which was
released on limited edition CDrs, cassettes or vinyl is
streaming on bandcamp, along with
music she created with Will as
Celer.

The Jónsi and Alex (Recipe) Show: join
Jónsi Birgisson (frontman of
Sigur Rós),
Alex Somers and their very loud blender to make
raw food recipes. They made three videos from their
Good Heart recipe book, for
Macadamia Monster Mash,
Raw Strawberry Pie, and
Nammi Nammi. If coconut, almonds, dates and agave (heavily featured in their three recipes) aren't your thing, enjoy a couple dreamy videos from the couple's album
Riceboy Sleeps:
All the Big Trees and
Daníell in the Sea. See also:
Sometimes I Get Scared (a distortion-heavy non-album track), and
Jónsi and Alex talk about their album, with parts of the tracks in the background.
