La Condicion Humana



Went to Bottom of the Hill last night with friends. Got invited to see Jay Breenan (of Shortbus fame) play live, had never heard his stuff and must say I was pleasantly surprised. Jay was performing with two other artists that night, one of them is who I bring you guys today: Jhammel. His new CD 'The Human Condition' is a free download off of his site and highly recommended. After all, how can you say 'no' to free? His performed in an almost acoustic way last night, but his record features synths and drumkits, pretty cool stuff. Also check it out his website if you get the chance: pretty interesting fellow with a cool voice.

Anoche fui a Bottom of the Hill con amigos. Me invitaron a ver Jay Breenan (conocido por la película Shortbus) tocar en vivo; nunca había escuchado su música y debo decir que me sorprendio lo mucho que me gusto. Jay estaba tocando con dos otros artistas teloneros esta noche, y uno de ellos es el que les presento hoy: Jhammel. Su nuevo CD 'La Condición Humana' es de descarga gratuita en su sitio y altamente recomendado. Despues de todo, como decir que no a algo que es gratis, nocierto? Ayer toco un set mas que nada acustico, pero su disco incluye sintetizadores y kits de bateria electronica, bastante copado todo. Si tienen tiempo chusmeen su sitio web : un muchacho bastante interesante con una linda voz.

Mi placer culpable



One more stop in Sweden. The mysterious girl Sally Shapiro making Italo disco, a style I've talked about on a previous post. Here.

Lo-Fi Fnk





No se que hay en el agua de Suecia, pero pareciera ser que la gente de alli escribe las mejores canciones pop: ABBA, The Cardigans, The Knife, Sally Shapiro (cuyo CD ya estare compartiendo prontamente), Robyn, The Sounds por nombrar unos pocos nomas. Pero el ejemplo de hoy es un nuevo favorito, Lo-Fi Fnk. Este duo sueco viene haciendo electropop ya hace un ratillo, y mientras esperamos ansiadamente su nuevo disco (supuestamente en el 2010) aca les dejo su primer LP, Boylife. Sin relleno, todos temones. Disfruten~!

I don't know what's in the water in Sweden, but their people always seem to write the best pop songs ever: ABBA, The Cardigans, The Knife, Sally Shapiro (whose new CD is pretty darn sweet), Robyn, The Sounds to name a few. But today's case in point is a new favorite, Lo-Fi Fnk. These Swedish duo has been making electropop for a bit now, and while we wait for their anticipated new release (supposedly in 2010) here's their first LP, Boylife. No filler, all great stuff. Enjoy!

La capsula del electro-pop / The capsule of electro-pop




El bebe del famoso productor japones Yasutaka Nakata y la vocalista Toshiko Koshijima en su ultima encarnación. Mucho mas electro y menos pop que anteriores discos, pero el genio de Nakata-san permanece intacto. A escuchar!

The baby of famous Japanese producer Yasutaka Nakata and the vocalist Toshiko Koshijima in its last incarnation. A lot more electro and less pop than previous records, but the genius of Nakata-san remains intact. Enjoy!
