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 am one of those people that play a song for every moment of the day, so often that some time ago, I got into the habit of giving away songs to my friends so they could have their own music for their moments. A year ago, more or less, I came across the...

Vanessa Bruno’s show in Paris last October already announced tropical exoticism for next summer. What started with some spotlessly white outfits ended up being a festival of colours, prints and textures that seems to be in motion once again in Miracle, the short-film shot in Cuba with Lou Doillon and Jessica Joffe, with which...

I´ve been able to totally understand the purpose of Caribou´s latest album Swim (2010), when I saw myself swimming and listening to all their magical tunes under the water.

I really like Lykke Li -as I think I made clear in several times- that is why I’m so glad she’s back no matter in which way. Solarium is a short film by Moses Berkson in which the Swedish sensation wanders the desert like a lost soul as the result of a heart break...

I can’t like this one more than the original one because Feist’s is actually one of my favourite songs ever, but how beautiful is James Blake’s cover of The Limit To Your Love from the album The Reminder of the Canadian singer. Amazing Martin de Thurah’s video makes the rest, to say the least.
