the wrestler
esto es cine y lo demás son tonterías, y en "demás" metan todas las películas de antihéroes que hayan visto hasta ahora. llego tarde a randy "the ram" (cordero) robinson, pero lo hago casualmente (o causalmente) en semana santa y me doy cuenta que esto no es una película, es un vía crucis que aronofsky (judío) decora con luces, tintes, sombras, esteroides, caravanas y vítores pugilísticos, pero también con sudor, sangre, redención, espino, y hasta una maria magdalena reconvertida a stripper. no soportaba a aronofsky, pero tras aplaudir el final a base de lágrimas no queda otra que redimirlo. si saben de alguna procesión cuya imagen sea la de marisa tomei o mickey rourke, avisen. me ofrezco de costalero.

ye uphall knyte fryars
"Ye Uphall Knight Fryars may be appealing to fans of Second Family Band and indeed, it would seem at least of few of the family are fryars... As you may know anarchy is an essential element in Second Family Band's perpetually bewildering output. This 'no rules' policy is part of what constantly renews them and keeps it churning..." earjerk

second family band
son muchos los cdr's, cassettes, lp's de second family band, pero jerusalem tiene un clima especial, cánticos, flautas, percusión tribal, ritmos pausados, palmas, guiños a free country de davenport...todo lo que siempre he buscado en sus últimas grabaciones y que sólo encontraba en momentos aislados. no me imagino un sitio mejor para escuchar glory y ancient city que rodeada de montañas y desiertos, como la foto de wearemaps

sons of noel and adrian
"The Rivers ep is a collection of dark songs that explore three very differing concepts through a single shared metaphor, which occurred to songwriter Jacob Richardson after spending "three gruelling days in the hottest sun fishing with Jack on the wrong side of the river". Opener and live favourite Black Side of the River came directly from this experience. The theme is continued through the powerful second track Big, Bad, Bold, which explores the concept of "the inner strength of a woman", finally Leaving Mary's Hand brings the ep to a close as Richardson contemplates "a state of love and trust". Rivers is available on 7” vinyl, digital and limited edition cd typeset and pressed by hand by Brighton based letterpress and book artist Anna Fewster." altsounds
en repeat...tres nuevas canciones favoritas entre favoritas que me hacen pensar en feathers, y en especial sounds like de shoreline, aquella canción que fue la más bonita del mundo durante mucho tiempo

the magickal folk of the faraway tree
the magickal folk of the faraway tree ~ the soup & the shilling (deserted village/deadslackstring 2010)"The long-awaited, long-whispered about Magickal Folk Of The Faraway Tree album has finally arrived. Those of you who have been asking for a reissue for a long time and are now being rewarded with a double CD. "The Mildew Leaf" and "The Cat's Melodeon" cdrs have long been out of print. Along with a track from the Gold Leaf Branches comp they make up Disc One. Disc Two is all new recordings, further exploring the Peter Kennedy songbook and beyond. This is a Deadslackstring/Deserted Village split release. We thank for your patience and are delighted to present this collection of songs to you." deserted village
"They capture the atmosphere of a field recording simultaneously catching the perfect sound of their instruments and voices so you can literally feel the music and the buring coal fire..." common folk meadow
por fin...un sueño hecho realidad, el muy muy muy esperado e idializado nuevo disco de the magickal folk of the faraway tree ya está aquí. dos discos, el primero contiene los descatalogados the cat's melodeon y the mildew leaf, y el segundo canciones nuevas, todas tan bonitas como cabía esperar. el genuino disco de la pradera con banjos (blackbirds and trushes!), flautas, canciones tradicionales irlandesas y melodías saltarinas.

family elan
family elan • bow low bright glow [alt vinyl 2010]Alongside Hladowski’s voice, there’s the vocal input of Nalle’s Hanna Tuulikki – a voice as easily capable of gentle Qawwali as it is folk song. This is a record of heavy treble intricacy, Hladowski’s saz and bouzouki playing encompassing drones, folk, dervish progressive work and a woozy shimmer over and through the entwining melodies. Family Elan are more than just a project or a band, Hladowski has endowed the music here with a such a unique voice that shaky shorthand comparisons would be pointless and a short sell. Music that hints at the devotional rarely feels as inclusive, as communal and as enjoyable as this." alt.vinyl

Basic, tribal percussion underpins the scorchers as they soar. Caminiti's exquisite guitar explorations are puncuated by the absolutely inspiring vocals from McGee. Terrestrial choirs never sounded so good...It's a carefully constructed, delicately held-together mini-masterpiece. Don't worry, though, because when you come down, you'll come down gently into a bed of crystal clean air. Stunning all the way." digitalis

drinking out of the freckled cup
"drinking out of the freckled cup is a project to showcase the beauty of people, light, warmth, color, lack of color, skin, touch, mountains, exploration, and most things in between."Your fingers upon by back connecting the dots. Drinking tea out of the freckled cup and waiting for you to come back home. Waiting for there to be a home outside of this one. Keeping warm under white sheets. Wanting to be closer than science will allow us."

Yön hetkinä ('At The Moments of Night') is named after the moments when the fragments of it were born, at night one is open and able to hear, when it is possible to hear other ways and other things than the day. The soundscape of the piece is like the night, you swell and churn, and sometimes something solid may come up." luovaja
