Now
that Green Day are back and they have a theme such as "Someone Kill The
DJ" (with dance hit airs to Franz Ferdinand), it seems appropriate to
use as the soundtrack for this article. This past weekend I was at a dinner with my lifelong friends. Someone took over the computer and put music with Spotify. "Tacata"
Pitbull with some of its many featurings, the song "Squid" Bongo
Botrako, Danza Kuduro, David Guetta ... The worse thing at times and
cocktails in vein level was not enough to lose the papers "I Got A Feeling". In
one of those, I slipped away to "click" what I thought would be a few
of those hits you like lightning shaking music and put your summer
memories. Let's
see ... "How Deep Is Your Love" The Rapture, one of Kakkmaddaffakka,
"Hold On" by Alabama Shakes, any Two Door Cinema Club and wham! No more me time! Suddenly,
one of my friends started saying that he wanted to dance with those
songs that you could not move and put something estrillo. (Does "Tacata" is something more than just a fucking guttural chorus?). I thought he was joking, but someone seconded the motion of censure and asked "Guetta or something more lively you all know." I was faced idiot in front of the black and white screen of the player. As
if all my efforts to search for that hit, all disks recently heard, all
reviews written in recent years, attended festivals and everything
learned were not worth at all. At that point my judgment and my self-esteem had musical bits to reggaeton rhythm.
Inevitably
I thought the British chonis attending the FIB or Ibiza Rocks, those
who lose or papers with Guetta Jessie J, but also who you let the voice
singing The Stone Roses, Florence & The Machine and The Maccabees. Will garrulito everything you want, but your taste in music is broad, and its voracious appetite promiscuous. And I got to the point of questioning why here the commercial and the indie or alternative are often light years. Two worlds that look behind a screen, not daring to approach positions for fear of contagion. Why it seems crazy to think that groups like Foster The People, Citizens! or the aforementioned Two Door Cinema Club may appear as a Top 40 list? Remember when MTV was engaged to do that? A
music program and provide a ready hetereogéneas and stimulating ...
Lately I have the feeling that all the songs that appear on commercial
listings are cut from the same pattern (more than usual) and tomorrow
only remember a handful of recurring endlessly. Occasionally
arise that make tightrope artists from both worlds and often receive
sticks for it, but it already gives to another article in itself. For
now, I leave thinking there waiting your opinion about the secrecy of
both scenes vs. the English model, who seems that things are going
pretty well.
Maybe someday we will not have to settle for listening to the same songs on Rock Fm REM or Radio3 programming. Perhaps there will come a time when radio meant to grant other "popular" and "commercial" and everyone will benefit from it.

The first two issues of Nate Barcalow (Finch) with Earthbound Ghost
It's been over a year and a half since closed ranks as a band Finch. After this sad separation, which guitarist Randy Strohmeyer said we (almost) all the details in a lengthy interview, each member of the group has begun to throw him. More news than we are getting is Nate Barcalow, singer and frontman of Finch and Cosmonaut has begun to dig deep with Earthbound Ghost, an alternative rock band from Temecula (California) consists of Travis Andrade, Jesse Alston, Evan Edgeworth , Matt Rodriguez and Barcalow own. Do you remember that in an earlier story we told you that this set was working on a new EP? Yes? Well, now you can listen through the network two issues that will eventually be part of this little disc. Streaming in the bottom of the post.
These two parts, which are entitled 'The Bray Of Bragging Tongues' and 'Hellseeker', let us show in the dark and taking tenebre special importance dense low rates (in 'Hellseeker' are nearer than other grunge thing) and the spark fanciful keyboard lines. Nate, although not to be the voice and in his post-hardcoreta stage, shows that even though the rate remains at vowel.
Apparently the EP is in the process of mastering so we hesitate to take more than two / three months to know how it sounds permanently Earthbound Ghost. Differences Finch will be more than obvious, but what do you think of the first two parts of the new band's charismatic Nate Barcalow?

Chairlift also sound good in Japanese
In July we went to the net Spotify list with the top stories we heard in the first half of 2012. One of the songs pointing higher this playlist is 'I Belong To Your Arms', a fantastic cut of synthesized pop Chairlift is pulled off as if it were an ace to publish "Something" in January this year. There is something so bewitching in that song that Caroline Polachek and Patrick Wimberly did not hesitate for a second to translate it into Japanese so fully done with the Eastern public. The result? Fabulous. If you do not believe me have a look at these guys released video yesterday and attached at the end of that entry.
Currently Charlift are spinning GOTYE jointly with the United States and parts of Canada. This tour finiquitará mid October so hopefully there is a little miracle and get back to having the Chairlift directly facing the Primavera Club will take place in Barcelona and Madrid in December. We know that this possibility is very unlikely but we lose the desire to return to enjoy a great show these good magicians synthase Colorado.

Now it's colorful! Holi Festival at the racecourse Munich-Riem
Holi festival is the MünchenAm 09/09/2012 in North India celebrated Holi festival already plenty to Munich, and more specifically on the racecourse Munich-Riem. It is Europe's largest Festial of Colours and who has the courage to attend this event, will go under warranty colorful home when he has come, because the Indian "Gulal" color powder is abundant. This powder is water soluble and can be easily washed off. It is also hypoallergenic and-tolerated and non-toxic. The organizer has imported several colors, packaged in small bags which can on the open-air site are purchased for the price of 2 euros per bag.
Doors open at 12 clock. It is the first color countdown clock by 15 and then every hour until the end by 22 clock. A box office will probably not be as even now three quarters of the tickets are sold out. If you want to be there, make sure you get your tickets quickly online! On the Holi festival the various Act are represented, from the Rainbow Painter over Jonas grove to Danny Faber and many, many more.
Holi, the one of the oldest festivals in general is supposed to be the most colorful of all. Five days after the full moon is Rangapancami (Ranga = color; Pancami = the day 5), the second day of the festival. On this day seem all barriers by box, sex, age and social status revoked. It is celebrated wildly and they sprinkled and sprinkled each other with colored water and colored powder, the Gulal. Those who reject the arrogance sweeps, each other at least decently with some powder paint. Despite all the changes in the modern Indian society, the religious significance is still clearly recognizable, such as the colors are still mostly previously consecrated on the altar and people bring blessings.
