Singer-songwriter Gretchen Lieberum, who co-founded the Prince cover band Princess with Maya Rudolph, has released a rendition of “Come Rain or Come Shine” from her upcoming collection of standards, This May Only Be a Dream, out May 7th.
Lieberum’s take on “Come Rain Or Come Shine” — penned in 1946 by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer — opens with an experimental flourish, as if an old recording of the song had been shot through a wormhole. While the song settles into a slightly more traditional swoon about halfway through, Lieberum deftly balances...

In 2014, the Haden Triplets – Petra, Rachel, and Tanya – released their eponymous debut album on Jack White’s Third Man Records label. A sterling collection of vintage country songs, the LP was distinguished by the siblings’ chill-inducing harmonies. The daughters of jazz bass legend Charlie Haden (who died in July of that year) pay homage to their father’s exceptional music history, first as a singing (and yodeling) 2-year-old member of his family’s country-music act and his later years as one of the most influential jazz instrumentalists from the Fifties...

D’Angelo officially released his meditative new song, “Unshaken,” which appears on the soundtrack of Rockstar video game Red Dead Redemption 2. The track, now available on streaming services, marks the soul singer’s first release since his third LP, 2014’s Black Messiah.
The vocalist explores his lower register throughout, crooning bleak imagery over a percussive groove. “Did I hear a thunder? Did I hear you break?” he sings. “I can’t quite remember just what guided me this way.” On the chorus, he pleads, “May I stand unshaken/ Amid, amidst a crashing world.

It’s the season for year-end lists, but one of 2018’s biggest albums is missing from nearly every major publication’s ranking: The soundtrack to Red Dead Redemption 2. Less than two weeks after the blockbuster video game’s release, Rockstar Games was estimated to have shipped 17 million copies to stores around the world. The company declined to provide more updates on the game’s sales numbers, but that initially reported total easily exceeds the numbers of chart-toppers like Drake’s Scorpion. And not only did millions upon millions of people...

If you tuned into the radio stations available in the game "Grand Theft Auto V," you got a diverse array of fresh tunes, on top of gameplay score from Tangerine Dream, Woody Jackson and Oh No. Now, all 59 songs plus the score are getting compiled into a single box set, either as three CDs or six LPs, out on Dec. 9. "The Music of Grand Theft Auto V" will be out on Dec. 5, including songs from Tyler, the Creator, Flying Lotus, Twin Shadow, Yeasayer, Asap Rocky, Wavves and The Alchemist. As Gtav is released to PS4 and Xbox One consoles this month and to PCs in January, there's longer playlists and new host commentary. Flying Lotus and Wavves are both heading up radio stations for those releases.

A collection of original music, the game's score, and tracks featured in the game's radio stations make up the massive "Grand Theft Auto V" music collection, out now on iTunes.
Oh, I get it--69 tracks. Clever, Rockstar.
The three volumes are available now as either separate purchases at $9.99 each or as a single download for $24.99 via iTunes. The collection includes original music from artists like Twin Shadow and Neon Indian on "Vol. 1: Original Music," to the incidental music and score of "Vol. 2: The Score," and remixed and licensed songs on "Vol. 3: The Soundtrack."
The release of the soundtrack continues Rockstar's media domination following the billion dollar launch of "GTA V" last week for the PS3 and Xbox 360. It's also not the first time they've had a major launch for one of the game's soundtracks: fans of "Vice City" may recall the lavish soundtrack for that game which...

Over the weekend, we found out a truckload more information about GTA V, specifically as it pertains to the sound of the game. Rockstar announced that GTA V will have a whopping 15 radio stations along with 2 talk radio stations, totaling over 240 licensed songs, and also an original, context-sensitive score provided by Tangerine Dream’s Edgar Froese, Woody Jackson (who previously worked on Red Dead Redemption and L.A. Noire), and The Alchemist & Oh No.
In addition to the five tracks that Rockstar released samples of, we’ve also learned that the likes of Pam Grier and Kenny Loggins will be hosting other radio stations (soul and rock respectively). While some stations are starting to leak out given the Psn screw-up last week, Rockstar have posted some official sample clips to whet our appetites ahead of the September 17th release date…

Rockstar’s open-world franchise has always been renowned for its quirky, satirical and downright entertaining soundtracks. From libellous talk shows to great music, the company has a knack for expanding their vast worlds through the aural medium. And for Grand Theft Auto V, that trend is set to continue, after it was revealed that the fifth numerical entry in the prestigious series will feature 15 radio stations, two dedicated radio talk shows and 240 licensed songs, which accumulates to “somewhere in the proximity of 20 movies’ worth of score.”
Acting as the soundtrack’s supervisor, here’s what Ivan Pavlovich spoke of in his interview with Rolling Stone:
“For this game, which is set in our version of modern-day Los Angeles, what was important for us was to capture that feeling of La and California. We approached the radio stations as the musical soundscape [you experience] as you fly into La. One of the things...

Grand Theft Auto is famous for many reasons, quite a few of which are usually controversial. Alongside the adult content and excellent open-world play is the attention to detail Rockstar always crams into the world, and a big part of this is the music.
GTA games traditionally feature an eclectic mix of licensed music, which is dispersed into a number of fictional in-game radio stations, and GTA V will be no different. 240 licensed songs will be spread over 15 radio stations, and two talk radio channels, another staple of the series, will also be included. However, that's not the end of GTA V's musical muscle, and this instalment will also feature an original score.

One of the biggest overlooked pieces of information dropped by last week’s blowout was that for the first time ever, Grand Theft Auto will be getting its own original musical score. Historically, Rockstar Games have an exemplary record when it comes to implementing music into their games: whether it’s Shawn Lee’s expert percussion work from Bully or Bill Elm & Woody Jackson’s marvellous atmospheric composition for Red Dead Redemption, they know how to hit the right notes. And this is never more palpable than when it comes to their iconic radio stations.
Beyond the gameplay, the graphics and the missions, the heart of a Grand Theft Auto game lies with its radio stations. As they have shown time and time again, Rockstar are a developer who understand the importance of a video game soundtrack: much of the ambience and memories created are by virtue of the presence of its music.

I just finished the main story for Red Dead Redemption last night and I was rightly satisfied and definitely want to go back and play through again. I’m sure being an outlaw and not being pursued by police on a near constant basis had something to do with it, but I digress. Something I was very impressed with while playing through the game was the music selection and cues, especially when you enter Mexico for the first time. If you feel the same way, well you’ll be glad to know you’ll be able to purchase the soundtrack of the game on iTunes right now.
Composers Bill Elm and Woody Jackson did a fantastic job capturing that dying old West and Mexico feel and reflected it in the score. 15 instrumental tracks are included on the soundtrack, produced by David Holmes (Ocean’s 11/12/13) and vocal tracks from Jamie Lidell,...
