Holly Brook – Like Blood and Honey
June 9, 2010 · Posted by Movmnt Magazine ·
Momentarily best known for backup vocals on the rap track, “Where’d You Go,” teen-friendly Holly Brook has more to boast than just background music. Her debut CD seems almost designed to accentuate her potential and true passion for performance. Though the sparse arrangements leave Like Blood and Honey rough around the edges, Brook’s obviously jazz/folk-influenced purity and control of her voice is refreshing.

“We can go on talking about racism and who treated whom badly, but what are you going to do about it? Are you going to wallow in that or are you going to create your own agenda? People come to see beauty, and I dance to give it to them. Dance is bigger than the physical body. When you extend your arm, it doesn’t stop at the end of your fingers, because you’re dancing bigger than that; you’re dancing spirit.”

The Dowling Sisters Rock the Audition
May 27, 2010 · Posted by Movmnt Magazine ·
Wedgies: leotard is too short. Back fat: elastic is too tight. Love handles: waistline is too narrow. Quadruple butt: leotard doesn’t have proper coverage. These are all adversaries dancers inevitably face in any given dance class, audition, or performance, because let’s face it, dance clothes were made for bean poles. The long-legged sisters, Joey and Jacki Dowling, were altogether fed up with clothes that didn’t fit and didn’t flatter. So emerged Jo+Jax, a high fashion dancewear collection available online and at dance conventions around the country. Joey and Jacki started designing clothes for themselves while they were Radio City Rockettes. “I ...
Album Review, Kylie Minogue, Boombox
May 19, 2010 · Posted by Movmnt Magazine ·
Kylie Minogue Boombox
Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue has maintained one of the most enduring careers in pop music. With twenty years in the industry, ten albums under her belt, and over forty million albums sold world wide, it seems all the more shocking that she has had such limited stateside success. Despite this, Minogue has amassed a slew of hits overseas that have, over the years, been remixed, reworked, and reconfigured by some of the industry’s hottest names. With sixteen tracks all taken from her post-comeback period (2000 – 2008), Boombox offers a non-stop night out at the club ...
Battleworks: A Column By Robert Battle
April 29, 2010 · Posted by Movmnt Magazine ·
You’ve seen it in the news, but maybe you’re not aware of how this economic crisis is affecting you in unexpected ways. Funding for the arts is the first thing cut during financial crises, and your ability to choose from a selection of high quality dance performances (or gallery openings, concerts, and theater shows) will dwindle as the economy takes its toll on the arts. As the Artistic Director of a young modern dance company in New York City I would like to take a moment to talk about how dance is being affected by this current financial predicament, ...
Music Review – A Fine Frenzy, One Cell in the Sea
April 18, 2010 · Posted by Movmnt Magazine ·
A Fine Frenzy
A Fine Frenzy is 22-year-old Alison Sudol, a gently melancholy songstress who offers whispered pleas for mercy on her debut album, One Cell in the Sea. The album is comprised of 14 tracks ranging from alternative pop to indie soul. Accompanied by her piano, Sudol gives the listener a faint-of-heart account of her trials thus far in life.
The opening track, “Come On, Come Out” creates dreamscapes with its electronic pulses and unwavering keys: “Watching the sky, you’re watching a painting / coming to life, shifting and shaping / staying inside, it all goes all goes by.” This ...

On April 13th, Travis Wall choreographed a master piece for Dancing with the Stars, featuring NY City Ballet’s Tiler Peck and Danny Tidwell, surrounded by a brilliant eclectic group of dancers merging genres from Hip hop, contemporary and classical ballet in a “2010 Pas de Deux reinvented,” orchestrated with the unique sound of Nuttin But Stringz.

Mario Spinetti, portrait by Danny Tidwell
While studying at New York University, Mario Spinetti has been singled out by many, including Mikhail Baryshnikov. Last year, Mario played in renowned New York City music venues such as The Cutting Room, The Bitter End and R&R, in the Meat Packing District. With today’s high demand for individuality, his rock vibe has a soul that sounds like the legendary Queen front-man, Freddie Mercury.
Detailed beyond the sound that entertains the music industry’s process. Beautifully human, Mario is awake, surfaced, and most definitely, fresh to produce.
He is by no means a typical up-and-coming artist. Popping ...
