It seems somehow appropriate that Scotland's Boards of Canada are releasing their third full-length at autumn's peak. The duo's softly lit electronic ambience is the perfect soundtrack for the season's changing leaves, falling temperatures and shortened days. But with a classic album to their credit (1999's Music Has the Right to Children) and a loyal fan base at their back, Michael Sandison and Marcus Eoin have inspired more than just hyperbole. They've come to represent dance music's cross-demographic potential--attracting just as many rockers as pill-poppers. The Campfire Headphase looks to revisit their analog soundscapes with the same nostalgia and familiarity we've come to expect from electronica's intellectual ambassadors.

When the term folk music is used, one thinks of protest music and sing-alongs, Greenwich Village, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan. But these days, there are a growing number of musicians seeking - possibly unconsciously - to redefine the music form. Rather than writing anthems like "Blowin' In the Wind," these musicians are creating more abstract acoustic music. And these days, when rap artists and rock bands seem to be trying to prove they are louder and more in-your-face than their contemporaries, some of these new folk acts are heading in a radically different direction, towards quiet, muted sounds. In the liner notes of BRIGHTBLACK's ala.cali.tucky, the crickets of Kentucky are given a nod for their contributions to the recording. Rather than being influenced by the pioneers of folk mus...

C. MUSEUM OF HISTORY-Here's a novel proliotional idea for film festivals, one that Asheville and Cucalorus might consider stealing: Winston-Salem's RiverRun International Film Festival, scheduled to take place April 23-28, is touring the state with The RiuerRun Roadshow. Tonight it'll be at the N.C. Museum of History to screen a program of hit shorts from last year and a highlight reel of this year's offerings. Two new films to look for at the fest itself are Durham filmmaker Josh Gibson's The Siamese Connection, which debuted at Full Frame last week, and Winston-Salem native Ramin Bahrani's Chop Shop, which received rave reviews at its theatrical release earlier this year. The festival will also feature two star attractions-well, make it one star: Bill Pullman is a strong actor, with...

This folkloric troupe from Rajasthan plays an ecstatic form of music that doesn't get much exposure here in the West, which is too bad since it's truly transformative. If the undulant vocal lines, droning snake charmer's flute, hand drums and jaw's harp don't get you, the Dhoad Gypsies' astounding dancers definitely will. The free show's part of the UWs World Music Festival (Sept. 13-15), which offers a panoply of compelling global sounds. It's impossible not to hear the influence of the Talking Heads, Pere Ubu and other New Wave and early post-punk weirdoes in most of what this band does. But that's not a criticism. Fey, slightly world-weary main mouth Alec Ounsworth is much more than a David Byrne imitator. His band farts, burps and jangles through music that's made stranger by the fa...
