We Saw... Star Wars Identities (The Exhibition)

We Saw the exhibition about the star wars universe and god damn, it's really good !!



All is about the quest of Identities. During a few hours, you'll be able to create your own 'Star Wars character' according to your experiences (they will propose you several choices to make in your life), your education from your parents, mentor , your fight... The geek in my head got free !!

First of all, you choose what kind of 'Star Wars character' you want to be, you have a lot of choice (even an Ewok, Oh god !). After that, you build your character like Anakin Skywalker grew up to become a fabulous Jedi... and Darth Vader.

You follow a route with many steps and to each stop you have a lot of informations on the construction of Star Wars and it's universe : the history, the characters, the outfits, the space crafts the difference between the light and the dark side of the force (why Anakin made all those choices)... And the real outfits and helmets are there : Chewbacca is really really tall, Darth Vader, so impressive and Yoda, fuck, it's Yoda !!

Also, some videos and pictures will explain the details of the creation of the saga and all the creation process of the characters : Darth Vader, Darth Maul, Yoda, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and even, C3-PO. It's really interesting to see that all those characters did not have those looks in the first sketches.

A the end of the journey, according to all your previous steps, you choose if you want to join the light or the dark side of the force. This is a hard choice to make indeed !

And the cherry on the cake, the gift shop ! You can buy a lot of goodies, clothes and a lot of stuff you can buy for friends, children... No! Keep it for you and have fun you selfish space freak!

In a few words, if you like the saga (or know a little ) you can run to see this exhibition! This is fabulous, you plunge into a real atmosphere and when you leave, you just want to buy a light saber and become a Jedi.

Here, just two pics from the exhibition (to keep the suspense) :

C3-PO R2-D2 and other robots from the movie

Darth Vader as scary as it get's


With Love.
(May the force be with you !)

State of the art Live set by Alejandro Molinari @ N.E.N.S Caracas


Alejandro Molinari recently destroyed Caracas by the single use of his keyboard!


We weren't surprised by his style we were there for that! The Molinari way to do it is recognizable by his beat and voice mix. By using beautifully crafted beats, and his crazy, dark, deep, delicious voice he is just re-inventing music hypnosis.
We tend to think that neat techy house is one of the best discoveries of this new year. The man is just stepping in a new territory made by/for him. By his musical history we can swear, and with his music we party!
Dear Alberto Gonzalez: take care of our own Alejandro and let him play as long as he feels.

The "chaussure à son pied" part is what could make France kneel and say give it to me! So visit us!

With love,

Röyksopp's thank you plays with your heart


Thank you for being so smooth on this one.
This track is on the actual stream of smoothness and melancholy.  Nevertheless the track is absolutely delicious and wont bring you listeners to dark mindsets.  As you listen you imagine yourself riding a bus or train back home with droplets of waters sliding on the window. This cold warmth is all canned in this simple yet beautiful keyboard package.

Less talky more music:

Fare Soldi did it again!



We told you about them in the past, and here they are! Back with the most tasteful disco they brought ear candy to all of you!
This candy is worth billions, and we want it out there.
Many attemps were just ersatz disco music, but here we are witnessing the rebirth of that very lustful dreamy sound that made the crowds dance back in time.

Less talky, more music!



Love,

Introducing Alejandro Molinari exclusive interview


Alejandro Molinari All rights reserved

Alejandro Molinari is a Venezuelan electronic music producer, singer and creative designer. He arrived in Mexico City when the whole movement of techno music was about to emerge. Some time later techno became cleaner and finer, and started to be heard by a wider public. He calls this movement “the Mexican Wave”.
Elements of Mexican life and rough elements that are combined with Rock and 80’s disco/Italodisco. Molinari spent part of his teen in Germany where he got close to movements like Coldwave, New Wave, and Minimal.
He took this influences and combined it with his experience in Berlin to create an unique genre made out of German 80’s music, New Wave & Post-Punk.
Chiquitico Mañana is a living evidence of this movement happening with the added edge of his South American origins. It is the story of a foreigner. The feeling that no matter where you are, you will be a stranger, regardless of what system you mix with.




Small & exquisite interview with this latin master mind:

Ears And Eyes Magazine: What is your music color?
Alejandro Molinari: Dark Red, Black and White

EAEM: Who are your influences?
A.M : Grauzone, WhoMadeWho, Post Punk, The Doors, New German Wave and Zakir Hussein..

EAEM: Are you the future New Order?
A.M: I think New Order defined a trendy NewWave in the 80’s. I look forward to reborn underground new wave. Make it simpler, and use it’s elements to recreate electronic music.

EAEM: What do you want to picture in your music?
A.M: An urban landscape, industrial and grey. Berlin takes me to grey. Coldwave came out of fear for the Coldwar. All of this makes me think of grey.
My grey, however, has hues of red and blue.

EAEM: Sweet of Salty? 
A.M: Bitter Sweet

EAEM: Hot or cold? 
A.M: Cold but friendly warm


EAEM: France soon? 
A.M: Between Berlin and Paris

EAEM: We are thankful for this little moment you spent with us and you shall be remembered dear sir!

This was our definition of a human interview. We will be back with more.

Love,

The art of Konnakol

The Konnakol this Indian beauty.

 Beautiful example with master  P.H Subash Chandran

While many may think that indian music is based on relaxation "sigh", indian music has it's very own structure which is studied in the shape of mouth sounds.
Every sound and note in indian music has a mouth sound to transcribe it for easy understanding. Its is quite amazing how a musician can play exactly every sound that comes from his Konnakol co-artist. Most of the time Konnakol artists are excellent percussionists, and that gives them the amazing ability to transcribe very complicated beats into simple mouth sounds.
It is easily comparable in street music to a human Beatbox, and more classically with Scat. these two styles might be the european version of Konnakol but they do not have the same use. While Scatting is used to add a human unstable element in the already crazy melody, Human beatbox is closer to Konnakol because it brings the real beat of a musical piece and that is exactly the purpose of our subject.
Scatting can seem easy, but excellent knowledge of the scatted tune is required or you will find yourself singing bath songs.
