+ Austra — Beat and the Pulse +

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...

I don’t really think we are here to judge things that are out of our understanding. At least not me. Everybody fights with owns demons the best he or she can. I do think, though, that anybody that has managed to move us, deserves a moment to be remembered. ———- No creo que estemos aquí para...

+ Four Tet +

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...

+ Sewing Machine Orchestra +

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...

+ Katy B goes Sonar. And so do we! +

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...

Some years ago I spent a few summer days in London, it was fine and I used to hang out all the time. Crossing the border of Soho, heading to the subway, I went through the record store where I used to find musical ideas to surprise my friends in Barcelona. I have...

A new song by Battles with the production of our friends in CANADA again. I could not imagine it until, once again, I found these images that reminded me so much of Scissor Sisters or El Gincho in their controversial videos. Drop Gloss looms now as one of the most complete records of this...

+ Why don’t you make up your mind? +

I think what has taken me to Tame Impala has been this damn curiosity I suffer from my childhood, since I hear them everywhere: I see their new album reviewed in all the magazines I read, my friends do not stop to recommend it and they swamp me with their songs so that I...

Indie garage. The crazy guys from The Fresh & Onlys are another unleashed ones coming out of California to conquer the world and, they’re doing pretty well! Now my mind starts to be in the rock festivals coming for the summer and I always tend to divide my expectations in two groups: one is seeing...

+ Sadness is a Blessing +

If the key alliance in Youth Novels, videographically speaking, were Little Bit and I’m Good I’m Gone -the two amazing videos Lykke Li shot with Mattias Montero-, it seems that in Wounded Rhymes Egyptian-Swedish filmmaker Tarik Saleh has become the new cornerstone. Sadness is a Blessing is their second work together, following the same...

Finally, holidays. You know what happens with Easter, as is not summer yet, the few options you may have are taking a sit and reading those books you haven’t checked yet, cooking with your girlfriend, preparing the suitcase for the trip to Portugal next week, buying the wine you think will fit better for...

+ I Am Kloot +

This is the song that played in the heads of all us last Saturday in a small area in the open air in Barcelona, without thinking then that a group could grab our attention that much. It sounds weird to confess but, when I first heard this band’s song Proof in my playlists at...

I may not talk about music itself today, maybe today my vocation as a photographer comes out when writing about a rock band that has made one of my current projects come to light in the form of a music video. Since some time ago I am only working with Polaroid, in a very retro...

+ Heart-Sick Groans +

I have to admit that indie music goes on and on, and it seems to be a genre that engages more generations of fans on its list every time. When I go out to the clubs I have usually been going for the last 10 years, I see a mixture of people from three...

Last Saturday my friend David came to my house to show me his artwork and have together a glass of strawberry juice with vodka -a delicious drink that I bring from Germany whenever I can- and, in the midst of this spring ecstasy in Barcelona the last days, he asked me if I wanted...

Pop is pop; as a musical style lot of styles are pop, why call it indie, rock, funk, electro… and then add the word pop? Well, probably because pop as such, has needed to accompany many styles to maintain that distinctive sound that can generate basically the right rhythm for dancing, in order to...

+ Walk the Moon +

I do not remember how many times I’ve been invited to parties by people I didn’t know and have ended up dancing with strangers that have become great friends later. What I do remember is that music has always been the connection, since it is the way I most commonly use to connect and...
