Accumulation

Yes, it happens so many times. You're bored for a while. Then you fancy doing something and magically, plans and things to do appear from nowhere.
I wanted to mention the new single release "Deli" by Delorean. Let's call them the Spanish "X-Wife, a band with really good reputation, probably better abroad, that came out just after the boom of bands such as The Rapture or Radio 4...
But while I was looking for a video of it I found this on vimeo. Birdy Nam Nam, 4 French turntablists making music. The album is however a blend of electro styles, from the new to the old. By the way, this track is produced by.. guess who? † Justice

Hands down!

Yeah men, I'm astonished by the remixes album for aussies Bag Raiders' "Turbo Love"...
If the original was a complete banger, these new remixes by Shinichi Osawa (you'll remember him for his Chemical Brothers' "Star Guitar" cover) and compatriots Light Year, Whitenoise and Flight Facilities, make this release one of the most interesting electro-rock proposals for this year so far.
Don't miss it!

Cerveza, beer amigo

What a nice surprise I got, when opened the newspaper on Sunday and read that the new Estrella Damm ad is graced with the presence of Swedes Billie the Vision and The Dancers! This brand a part from being one of the sponsors of F.C. Barcelona had the ability of scoring several summer songs from unknown bands just by playing them on their summer commercial. That was the 90s.

Billie the Vision and The Dancers are a band I discovered about a year ago thanks to "Recommended music" in last.fm, and that I would describe as one of those hyper-happy Swedish bands you could hear played in Babasonic and where everybody clapped their hands and jumped to the beat.

By the way, I don't like beer... and Susan Boyle is not definitely fresh stuff

Music on the TV

I guess we didn't miss too much not watching Eurovision last weekend... Spain's song which was supposed to be one of the favourite songs finally ended up the last one. It sounds like football. Remember last year's? that was class!

Here we've got school of rock, idols, some decent music in arty programs, nostalgic shows, etc but nothing like before. I mean it's been some time since I miss that kind of program where you could watch new videos, save them into your VHS tape and comment with your friends how hot Jennifer Lopez was.

Let's play videogames again!
