Sneaking in is one of the things music editors do best: concerts, private parties, backstage areas, press conferences… Where the power lies these days is in the moment that artists unveil their musical secrets and being the first to know them, or being revealed who produced which album and why, or more personal issues...

I don’t like to show off, but now that the season of music festivals is about to begin around the world, and I am getting glimpses of some of the band names that have been played during the cold winter months as part of our music recommendations, I feel a great sense of satisfaction...

There are times I can write about bands that don’t need any introduction. The Rapture, so famous since the release of their album Echoes in 2003, have become one of those bands of worship for me. Loyally, for many years, I have used them as a way to lift my mood, make me feel...

Catalan guerilla guys, these guys make up a band that came into my soul at the end of the autumn, and have become a reference point when talking about the homegrown music scene. With their angelic faces, eyes that could leave you breathless and echoes that could cause you to hallucinate, I think that...

Anthony González, a Frenchman who since 2001 has been doing fantastic explosive mixes with his band M83 and who I am now bringing to you here by popular demand. Everyone has been telling me about them, how they had a tour with Kings of Leon, how they had been the openers for Depeche Mode...

Erlend Øye is still getting away with it, as a member of Kings of Convenience and as the frontman for The Whitest Boy Alive, he is now producing the latest album by a band with a name that is unpronounceable in my vocabulary: Kakkmaddafakka. It consists of some young guys from Bergen that Erlend...

One of our favourite quartets from Denmark have gotten their own way, once again, When Saints Go Machine do not need a grand introduction, we don’t need to discuss their musical influences or the variety of genres that they are capable of encompassing without detaching from their deep electronic roots. Neither do we need...

It has never really happened before that I have got to know the professions of my neighbours, and after 5 years of having lived in the same building it has turned out that after all they were one of my best clients that I had only ever met over the phone, or that we...

I have friends who could talk for hours and could write articles of 1000’s of words about men like Marco Niemerski, better known as Tensnake since 2006; a musician that manages to make records that sell out within just a few hours of release, leaving no doubt as to his accomplishment.
As I read some...

Let’s add some spice to the party. For many years I’ve been trying to find dance nights that really bring my senses alive, and at times this has backfired on me. Sometimes I have come across nights where the brilliance of the neo-punk pop Dj is literally blinding, the type of nights where you...

I’ve been reminiscing about that feeling that you always get when you fly back into Barcelona and look out at the view through the window of the plane and see all the places you think you recognise. I have to say that the places I never forget are all of the big landmarks, that...

The words on all my friends’ lips at the moment are about the feelings of living in a southern European country with temperatures of 21ºC in early October, whilst the rest of the northern hemisphere is beginning to feel the cold chill that heralds the arrival of Autumn.
I have to confess that the feeling...

I love the sensation of power in creating expectations about something from which there is nothing yet, and how writers like me can benefit from that in order to write biographies that are at this moment still unauthorised.
A couple of weeks ago, a video of a girl named Lizzy Grant (although I am still...

Many of you are already accustomed to my long, descriptive reviews and my complimentary descriptions each time I come across an artist that has surprised me lately, I usually tend to be generous as I believe that following the arduous creative process, the reward is to know that their fans are giving them their...

There are few occasions when musical stars pass you by unnoticed when you happen to come across them on the street. How many times have you seen one of your favourite artists on the street and melted when your eyes connected with theirs for that second? You know, that fleeting glance. It may sound...

Okay, so I am 32 years old, and maybe because of my age I feel like I’m able to relate to friends of mine who are married, have children and are now beginning to plan lives together as modern families. At the same time, I find it a little strange that the people who...

Growing up around a small family-run clothing business that my mother has always owned, sewing machines have been part of the decor at home throughout my whole life. To this day I still have one of her machines, a relic of Spanish make that I love, that I still use sometimes for small projects...

Sometimes I find it hard to admit that there may be R&B songs that I like, it’s not my preferred style of music, actually I don’t generally find myself dancing it in clubs, but I must confess that last Friday I was given the opportunity of watching Katy B close up in concert. And...
