Doctor Who - The Chimes of Midnight , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 118min
Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house not a creature was stirring.... But something must be stirring. Something hidden in the shadows. Something which kills the servants of an old Edwardian mansion in the most brutal and macabre manner possible. Exactly on the chiming of the hour, every hour, as the grandfather clock ticks on towards midnight. Trapped and afraid, the Doctor and Charley are forced to play detective to murders with no motive, where even the victims don't stay dead. Time is running out. And time itself might well be the killer.... Written by: Robert Shearman. Directed by: Barnaby Edwards. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Paul McGann, India Fisher.

Wicked: Sexy Tales of Legendary Lovers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 503min, (USK 18)
What made Lincoln's hat stand up? Did Chairman Mao keep a Little Black Book? Lynda Schor's "Seduction" follows Warren Beatty on his tireless erotic journey, with characters like Joan Collins and Joyce Carol Oates chiming in on his legendary prowess. In "The Ballad of Scott and Zelda," Maxim Jakubowski traces the passion and the slow, bitter disconnection of those idols of the Jazz Age. "Love, Zora," by Fiona Zedde, is a graceful, poetic evocation of a young woman's affair with Zora Neale Hurston. Editor Mitzi Szereto brings together a playful and varied collection, not only gratifying our curiosity about acknowledged sex symbols like Marilyn Monroe and Rudolph Valentino, but exciting readers with the imaginary adventures of such unlikely figures as Toulouse Lautrec, Sigmund Freud, and God. ungekürzt.

Hello, Refugees! , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 291min
Germany, the most racist of countries less than a century ago, has for the past two years welcomed over one million refugees, more than any other European country. To find out the secret behind this turn of character, Tuvia Tenenbom, a Jew born in Israel, presented himself as a Jordanian and was able to gain entry into many refugee camps. Living in squalid conditions in airless rooms, and with barely edible food, the refugees begged Tuvia to help them get out of the camps. When not with the refugees, Tuvia traveled through the land and mingled with the local people who shared with him that they, the Germans, were the kindest people in Europe, far superior to the "inhumane” Jews. Tuvia Tenenbom's provocative re-enactment of the refugee reality in the middle of Europe, coupled with the rising anti-Semitism of the people who proclaim themselves to be kind, exposes the hypocrisy of the "Refugees Welcome" mantra chiming throughout the Western world. ungekürzt.

Portofino, Rapallo, and Italy's Riviera di Levante: Travel Adventures , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 211min
The scent of herbs and pines, the startling blue of the sea. The brilliant white of cliffs tumbling into the depths. The sound of pounding surf, the chiming of church bells. The sight of mountain peaks that break the clouds, the chill of an alpine breeze. All this, and more, is the Italian Riviera. Pinned between the mountains and the sea, on a steeply-sloped crescent of land stretching from the French border to Tuscany, the people of the Italian region of Liguria - commonly known as the Italian Riviera - developed a character and unique way of life. The area is only 170 miles long, and 23 miles wide at its widest point. Some have theorized that the geography of Liguria had a profound psychological impact on the people who lived there. They reason that the limited landmass - with the sea on one side and daunting mountains on the other - had an "island effect", compelling the Ligurians to take to the sea as fishermen, traders, explorers, and sailors. Among their number is perhaps the most famous explorer of all time, Christopher Colombus. East of Genoa lies the Portofino Promontory, an outcrop of land separating the Golfo Paradiso and the Golfo del Tigéllio. On the otherwise smooth arc of eastern Liguria it juts out into the blue sea, capped by the heights of Mt. Portofino. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Mary Ann Jacobs.

Nativity: A Christmas Tale , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 87min
Michael Stuyvesant was dying. A wealthy, courteous, and controlled man, all he wanted was to get to Denver to visit his children for one last Christmas. But sometimes even money, good manners, and a compulsive desire for order are not enough. God, the weather, a gigantic shopping-mall Santa Claus, and a pregnant girl who called herself Cheyenne - "like the city. And a river, too. And a mountain and an Indian tribe. I looked it up" - had other plans for him. "'Michael! Michael, oh my God, Michael! What did you do?' he heard in a shriek behind him as he picked up the fallen weapon. He turned to see Cheyenne’s head poking sideways out the open driver’s-side door. Her elfin face, he thought distractedly - the triangular, fox-like face of an elf who thought he had just killed Santa Claus. And what else would she think? Michael Stuyvesant, a man who prided himself on the calm order of his life, stood with a tire iron in his hand, straddling the body of a titanic Kris Kringle while the fat snowflakes drifted down around him and the chiming, clicking noises of an expensive SUV merged with the screams of a pregnant teenager. 'Oh, shut up,' he said." The second of Kindle Singles author Joseph Bottum’s trilogy of Christmas short stories - modern takes on the Gifts of the Magi - the 13,000-word "Nativity" follows 2012’s "Wise Guy". And where "Wise Guy" asked what Balthasar, the Wise Man who brought myrrh to Bethlehem, would be like as a clever thief, "Nativity" now re-imagines Melchior, the Wise Man who brought gold, as a wealthy cancer patient adrift in the American Midwest. ungekürzt.

Bulldozer
300 Produziert von Rob Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, Guided by Voices) - featuring Isobel Campbell (Belle And Sebastian).Bright Eyes machhte es bereits vor. Und so veröffentlicht auch Kevin Devine zwei Alben zeitgleich. Kevine Devine demonstriert auf Album Nummer 7 & 8 mit jeder Note seine ausgeprägte Vielseitigkeit und musikalische Vielschichtigkeit, und das sehr sicher und geschickt. Seine Songs sind egreifend und wirklich großartig. Egal ob es Rocksongs sind, die an seine Indieband Miracle of 86 erinnern oder die eher Leisen und zurückgenommenen Singer/Songwriter Songs. The ten songs that comprise Bulldozer, Devine s solo album laced with electric folk-rock and pop ballads, were recorded in L.A. from March to April 2013 and produced by frequent collaborator Schnapf. With Devine on guitar, Schnapf gathered a stellar group of musicians to back him Russell Pollard and Elijah Thomson (Everest) on drums and bass, respectively, Isobel Campbell (Belle & Sebastian) on backup vocals, and Schnapf himself on guitar, mellotron, and percussion. The commanding big sound of Now: Navigate! with its chiming guitars and tongue-in-cheek wordplay, is a stampede of power pop, as is the quintessential rock/pop sound of Little Bulldozer. Songs like She Can See Me bring out Devine's punk rock roots. From Here was written in the days after Hurricane Sandy when Devine put things on hold to volunteer around Staten Island, where he partially grew up, and Brooklyn, where he now lives. Primarily, he came to the aid of two close friends who had lost their homes in the hurricane. Devine aided in food and material drives and played in benefit concerts. TRACKS: 1. Now Navigate 2. Little Bulldozer 3. From Here 4. Couldn't Be Happier 5. You Brushed 6. The Worm In Every 7. Matter Of Time 8. She Can See ME 9. For Eugene 10. Safe- Shop: odax

Songbook IV
Songbook IV is the Lund Bros fourth official release and their second double album/CD release. Those who liked their previous releases (Tangents, IPO, and Loser) will not be disappointed. Songbook IV is full of great rock and roll tunes that go from a whisper to a roar, explode with the Lund's trademark vocal harmonies, and stinging and chiming with tons of guitars. Think the musical range, musical surprise, and yet overall coherence of the Beatle's White Album. Angry, bittersweet, fun and strange all at the same time - just listen. For those new to the band, they are a power trio founded by Chris and Sean Lund and rounded out with bassist Gwon Chang. They hail from the beautiful Pacific NW and have been writing songs prolifically while performing semi-regularly over the last ten years. They have written and recorded over the course of that time over 85 songs and are already nearly finished with the follow up to Songbook IV. Cheers!- Shop: odax

Unnoticed
Fans of early Posies, harmony-ridden, acoustic-driven pure pop, REJOICE! It's hard to find a band that better epitomizes what why so many folks fell so hard for The Posies during their 'Failure' and 'Dear 23' period (those Hollies-esque harmonies!) than Jesse Sprinkle's 'Unnoticed'. Fans of Michael Penn, Neil Finn, Ice Cream Hands and the those rare moments when Elliot Smith made happy pop music are going to, simply, be smitten and fall hard for this one. Sprinkle used to be in the band Poor Old Lu, who released some legendary, but hard to find albums in the 90's. Soaring open chorded strums and blended vocals fulfill the connection to all the aforementioned bands. Crisp guitar lines and rich, soothing vocals urge the complete success of this project clearly into focus, opening up fresh pop vistas of effortless strumming and lovely melodies. IT does not get much better than this for fans of acoustically, chiming, ringing power pop than this. Lyrically rich, the songs rely on sugar-sweet harmonies on every second of this CD. Extremely Highly Recommended! Jesse, a Seattle Washington native was thrust into the music industry over a decade ago as the drummer for the legendary underground group Poor Old Lu. And since they disbanded in 1996 he has managed to stay busy as a drummer, songwriter, and recording engineer. Jesse is currently residing in the majestic village of Dansville New York, where he owns and operates the illuminata recording company, engineering, producing, photographing, and designing for all sorts of musical outfits.You might have also heard jesse performing and or recording with the following artists: dead poetic - demon hunter - serene UK - paloma - robert deeble - annie quick - starflyer 59 - kutless, paul wright, michael knott, etc... dead poetic and demon hunter can both be seen on mtv's head bangers ball and extreme rock shows.- Shop: odax
