    FOXES DRUMMER ANNOUNCES DEPARTURE VIA TUMBLR


    J. Tillman

    After four years, drummer J. Tillman has announced his departure from Fleet Foxes. Tillman made the announcement on his Tumblr, with the message posted below:

    Farewell Fleet Fans and Friends. Back into the gaping maw of obscurity I go. Tokyo is my last show with the Foxes. Sorry if I was distant and obtuse if we ever met. Have fun.”

    Tillman joined Fleet Foxes in 2008, just before the release of the band’s self-titled debut record. Fans can expect more material from the talented Tillman, as the former Foxes drummer has been releasing solo material since 2004 and all throughout his tenure with the band. His most recent album, Singing Ax, was released in September 2010.

    OPENING CEREMONY TAKES PLACES JULY 27, 2012


    Underworld

    The London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) today announced that British electronic music pioneers Underworld have been appointed Music Directors for the Opening Ceremony of the London 2012 Olympic Games. The appointment completes the team of senior creatives that will lead the direction of the London 2012 Ceremonies.

    Underworld duo Rick Smith and Karl Hyde will work alongside Oscar winning British filmmaker and producer Danny Boyle, Artistic Director of the Opening Ceremony and will be responsible for all the music in the three-hour ceremony taking place on 27 July next summer.

    Underworld and Danny Boyle have enjoyed a long and diverse collaboration since Underworld’s track ‘Born Slippy’ featured in Boyle’s film Trainspotting. Over the following fifteen years the three developed a close relationship, with Smith and Hyde supplying specially created music for A Life Less Ordinary, The Beach and co-scoring the 2007 sci-fi film Sunshine. In 2010 they came together again to work on the critically acclaimed National Theatre production of Frankenstein.
