Florence + The Machine, allied with Calvin Harris and La Chapelle in 'Spectrum'


Florence + The Machine have been eating the world gradually. I still remember when they played in Bikini in early 2010 ... and has changed everything! Now Welch and his "machines" and are recognized through the world and its empire, riveted by "Ceremonials", promises to give even a long, long game. Proof of this is found in the new Calvin Harris remix has been made of 'Spectrum', a piece that appeared in the second LP of Florence and now also has an official music video was directed by acclaimed music video director David La Chapelle.

This certainly could be the final step of Florence Welch to the purest of stardom, the counter views of Vevo going to smoke in the coming days so we'll watch to see what happens to a phenomenon - that of Florence + The Machine - that seems to be in better shape than ever.

Unveiling of 'Gaucho' and 'Mercy' by Dave Matthews Band

Dave Matthews Band, despite being a band that goes completely unnoticed in countries like ours, has always been considered one of the great American rock bands. Tours of stadiums, very long queues for their concerts, opening for The Charlottesville luxury ... made ​​of gold everything they touch, a gift that will pretend to float again with the launch of the new album has Steve Lillywhite and will bail the light at some point in the upcoming fall season. To whet your appetite ahead of what awaits us here we give you the opportunity to hear in advance two new items to appear on the LP.

The first is 'Gaucho', a piece that features the voices of children in their final chorus which is a small breath of fresh air in the rock record / sound from the creators of "Everyday," "Crash" and "Stand Up. "Very careful with the last third of the track: in recent years have rarely been enjoying this explosion of color in the material of this band.

The second issue in question is 'Mercy', a song that was unveiled live at the end of April at the Jimmy Fallon show. I am convinced that the sound of this track will appeal to many of those who praised in their day to 'Crush', 'Gravedigger' or 'Crash Into Me'. Resurfaces the melodic essence of good rollista Dave Matthews Band.

Soon we will have more details regarding the new album by Dave Matthews Band. Be aware that we will be listing as one to one soon.

MyFestival born, the new music application Heineken


In recent months we have discovered some really interesting music applications. The last of these is MyFestival, Heineken created an App for mobile devices (iPhone, Android and Windows Phone) which gives the user the opportunity to listen to your favorite music on fiddles creating the festival of your dreams. Perhaps this last point first might sound a bit weird but the truth is the thing that engages in a bestial.
I explain a bit how it works MyFestival, primarily phone users can choose from a wide variety of art designs known artists to create the ideal image for the festival. Then you choose will play a number of artists, from eight to fifteen, who will be the sign that will be part of the end of its own festival. Eye! At this point the user can choose any one, whether it is current as of a different era than today. Once you select a squad of bands and artists and just to name the festival will be sited somewhere in the world (even in Uzbekistan) and thus automatically will create a piece to be reproduced will include a random songs artists chosen. This may be reproduced either via web or mobile as from our own personal Facebook profile.
It is very horny to know that thanks to Heineken MyFestival users can view the posters created by friends, colleagues, etc ... and even post their own signs in different places due to augmented reality (technology blessed!). For me personally one of the things that caught my attention is the fact that users with its playlist, you can win prizes as great as get the chance to travel with VIP passes to some incredible festivals like Heineken Jammin 'Festival Milan, Outside Lands in San Francisco, Dubai or SWU Sandance Festival of São Paulo.
Great proposal of Heineken, hopefully we can enjoy more things like this in the future.

Foster the People Live in Berlin 05.02.2012

Played on Wednesday after months of receiving fevers finally "Foster the People" in the Columbia hall in Berlin. The band we had been introduced early last year and since they were an integral part of the way of my playlist. I put "waste" at work when my mood was threatening to sink. The anticipation was correspondingly huge.

The band improvised their songs in many different ways, so that they often did not know what the intro song is looming there. So the songs were interesting, despite tausendmaligem listening to me. The band members also turned out to be as all-rounders who have mastered loose three different instruments. So they managed to partially create a magical atmosphere in which one forgot the 1,500 guests around them.

In other places, but I was touched a little embarrassing, because singer Mark Foster has partly focused too much on his own show and gave it a perfect double Robbie Williams. The impression was reinforced by the five teens he took to the stage to him to dance. As thanks, there was a large group-hug ... For my taste, the band already arrived in the very center of the mainstream which is rarely good for the musical development. This impression was reinforced when I saw the Megaknallersuperhit "Pumped Up Kicks" in the morning on RTL radio listening.

The concert was all in all still good and I'm curious what will happen next for the band.

The tribute to Red Hot Chili Peppers Beastie Boys MCA

Last Friday a saddened Red Hot Chili Peppers took the stage of the Prudential Center in New Jersey with one goal in mind: to pay a solemn tribute to Adam Yauch, a member and founder of Beastie Boys who had died a few hours ago. This tribute was realized in the time when Anthony Kiedis, Josh Klinghoffer, Flea and Chad Smith surprised the audience with a long fragment of the classic 'So What'cha Want'.

I knew that something would happen. If we stop to watch the recording career of both groups see great ties that bound them. Since its desire to transgress, until the urge (at least once existing) leading to Red Hot Chili Peppers will not boxed into one genre. For all this we see how greatly satisfies the middle of the family have paid a special tribute to one of their parents.

Discovering "A Banquet For Ghosts", the latest gambit by Matthew Mayfield

It seems like yesterday when we discovered last July "Now You're Free" by Matthew Mayfield. This magnetic component as seen in songs like 'Fire Escape' or 'Element' has kept us in suspense would sound continuously thinking as the next items of Birmingham. Fortunately not much time to solve this incognita as "A Banquet For Ghosts", the next LP Matthew, will go on sale on an international basis on 29 May.

If 'Track You Down "let's guess where the shots go this coming long playing record, now is the turn of acoustic versions of' Heart In Wire 'and' A Banquet For Ghosts', two parts warm and intimate that retrieve the format closest brilliant genius born in Alabama. While the first is characterized by its most pop, the second is moving towards a more introverted and mysterious look.

Both songs delude us for the launch of the LP. It's just a matter of less than a month and we will have the final fruit of Matthew Mayfield in our own hands.

Melancholic widescreen pop-rock


Blek le Roc released their debut album. Simais Laura met the band for an interview.
As the work was in the studio?
Lucas: We had the advantage that we have taken with a fellow producer, who of course has also said, he is not only self mitrein something, it's our thing. So we could also say, after a session, "Hey we can do that again" if they did not like. For this reason, because we could really take time. So it probably took so long. But if needs be, we can too quickly.
Tobias: But it's definitely still in the studio, sometimes exhausting, because you can get carried away quickly. It has a lot of time and, above all, endless possibilities of this and to do it. And then you can hear the centenary of the track and in the end you will notice the difference and not just when it is changed even more. You lose too much time to even just a little bit of sight and hearing.
How would you describe your music to someone who does not know you?
Tobias: It is melancholy in the first place.
Lucas: at least as mood. You could say it's widescreen melancholy pop / rock, melancholic and epic.
Tobias: Widescreen always sounds negative, but ...
Bene: Nope think I do not. It is a melancholy way, but it is now not in the direction of melancholic acoustic / singer / songwriter. The melancholy is there, but we always try to dress in a relatively opulent pack. Direction are about bands like Sigur Ros and of course, Coldplay, Radiohead, U2. For us, this is a fine line between experimental and sophisticated, easy on the choice of her sound and the pop. I think that's exactly what made us, that it has that personal touch.
Tobias: The songs are not written for a Popkonzept. While there are Poprefrains and there are bonds, but it is actually more packed in different directions. This is perhaps the most experimental music at the moment. She is inspired, but not the celebrated pop. He will be resolved in peaceful beats or guitar lines that are not typical. It is not aware of trimmed into a Poprichtung.
Is it true that has been your first gig with Status Quo?
Lucas: That was the second. That was a funny coincidence. We have had our first gig at the Great Wood and went well and everything was great. And because we wanted to celebrate the day of course, we asked whether we might be able to leave our car. With our guitars and amps and all the equipment. And the answer was "Yes, of course, you can leave that until tomorrow at the site." And then the next day at noon the call came from the organizers of the Great Wood, the opening band, that was originally scheduled for status quo and came from Berlin in traffic jams and has no chance of making it to the gig. Whether to step in and we could not. We were quite stunned! We then rumtelefoniert in the band and it was clear that we do it. 5000 people, sold out and the band after three weeks of existence, this is really something special. Since then, there was also a funny story, but you can tell for yourself ....
Bene: I had so adopted a stupid job. I was on a photo shoot for a theme park in the Allgäu. They had a roller coaster with looping backward. Then there are the photos I shot and hung down about twenty times that backward looping, and was completely through. Then the guys called me and it was relatively late. Besides, I was not driving there and had to catch the train. Someone else has checked my drums ...
Lucas: ... plane came true rock-star standard ten minutes before the show even with residual alcohol completely to the wind. And then we are high on the stage, the lights came on. Then as you look at the audience and that was really crude.
Are you relaxed in general, before performing? Are there any rituals?Bene: We are not nervous before long. But just before the gig so two or three hours before, it always starts. I will probably never drop. And that's also quite beautiful. The tension is transformed into energy on stage and then it is very different than when you play in the rehearsal room. But Lucas has a ritual ...
Lucas: I always have to throw up before a show. Since then it goes through with me. I believe that people never know that I'm nervous before the concert because I'm quite relaxed on the stage over. But before the concert then it is always the standard question: "Lucas, already puked". And if that just happened, then it fits and then we can go on stage.
And if it does not happen?
Lucas: That's actually never before ...
If you could you pick a band that plays with your time together, that would be ...?
Bene: Sure, the big ones, because that also belong to our very great role models. If someone were to ask for Radiohead or U2 or Coldplay, then I certainly would not say no.
What are your plans?Tobias: The plans continue ... so we are planning for September and October actually a tour. Now we'll have to wait and see until the plate is out there and we have reviews. Otherwise it makes no sense before large rumzufragen. So it is probably October. But there are a few things that are being considered.
Bene: We want a single nachschießen in two to three months on vinyl.
Lucas: Actually, this should now happen with the album already, but we do not want this in the whole then goes down. Therefore, it is better to spend a bit after that.
Last question: When would you not focus on music, where you're likely to be?Tobias: It's difficult to answer because you can tell, of course, if I had not done with the music, I had just a job. Yes we all have studied. But music was always in parallel and there was never a question whether either one or the other. It's also good that it has to compensate for higher education. Clearly it is with us as if we start now a stark job that you would have no more time for music. It is always balancing. The problem is not just have people, not playing in a band. But it's making us all part of the music and personality, it is simply a must. Therefore, it is difficult to say really, where would we be if we had not done it.
Bene: Yes, I would probably somewhere in Africa. No, I think then I would have probably ended with a very different energy my studies much earlier. It has just always dedicated himself to music with a lot of time and energy. And if that had not been so, then this energy would be executed just flowed elsewhere.
Tobias: But it would have lacked the balance.
