Must listen: Paradise Blue by Bill King |
From Bill King:
"With Paradise Blue I explore the range of emotions, the many shades of the colour blue. Six of twelve tracks - improvised. The blues, a touch of classical and the accidental improvisational curves of jazz."
"Paradise Blue is the piano talking back at me. That light in the head momentarily eclipsed, hands in receipt of inspiration. Junctures of sweeping colour and others of blue intent. Fingers jabbing and prying at the space between black and white notes, the overtones, the undertones, wedged between the crevices. A solitary moment where melody and harmony linger beyond invitation."
Listen and purchase the full album via Bandcamp.

Bonnie Trash album release party for Halloween |
Halloween heavyosity is on the menu on October 28th at Wavelength, with the long-awaited album launch party for Bonnie Trash. With Malocchio, their debut LP for acclaimed Hand Drawn Dracula Records, the Guelph, Ontario twin-sister duo have created a contender for album of the year.
Malocchio unspools a real-life horror story based on the stories told to them by their Italian grandmother. Over heavy, hypnotic riffs, pounding drums, and spooky soundscapes, the lyrics pull the listener into the meaning of the “evil eye,” a hex of malice onto another.

October 8th, 9:00 PM
This POV documentary follows filmmaker Teresa Alfeld as she uncovers the story of her childhood best friend’s dad: Doug Bennett, leader of the legendary 1980s Canadian party band Doug and the Slugs. Growing up in East Vancouver in the 1990s, Teresa knew that her best friend Shea's goofy father Doug was in a band. In 2004, long after she and Shea had lost touch, she was shocked to learn of Doug’s sudden death at age 52. Now a documentary filmmaker, Teresa pieces together just how Doug and the Slugs shot from Vancouver cult sensation to national fame. Peppered with Slugs' deep cuts and fascinating archival footage of early-80s Vancouver, this inspiring film is a who’s who of Canadian musicians and industry insiders, including Bif Naked, Steven Page, and Ed the Sock.

Afghan Star—Afghanistan's answer to American Idol—is a raging success, capturing the hearts of millions of viewers. And for 13 straight seasons, only men have won it. Set amidst peace negotiations between the United States and the Taliban, this powerful doc follows Afghan Star contestants Zahra and Sadiqa as they compete in the final episodes of the 14th season. With the help of their mentor, controversial pop star and activist Aryana Sayeed, they’re determined to win the show and become national singing sensations—but their lives are turned upside down when the Taliban return to power, reversing 20 years of progress for women’s rights in the blink of an eye. And Still I Sing is a captivating portrait of three women fighting for a better future and a chilling reminder of the fragility of human rights under totalitarianism.
