His work is so focused and consistent and I see many similar qualities with designers’ work that I admire.
The compositions are straight-forward, and he has a keen eye for subtle details, pattern, color and structure. The mood of all Lindell’s work is fantastic, as well. I love that throughout his portfolio, the sky is always the same shade of gray.
Made up of Rocio Ortiz and Sophia Hamadi, (who previously released an EP as Playground, with the collaboration of Brian Pyle from Ensemble Economique) Paris-based duo Opale composes synthetic melodies full of glowing coldness.
'I piece together fragments of footage shot during my travels and wanderings, as well as some that I source online. The sensibility of the collage interests me because it echoes the process by which memory is constructed, through selective fragments of inclusion/exclusion, intuition and personal projection. The images are created through an organic, intuitive process.'
How come I end up where I started? How come I end up where I went wrong? Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You used to reel me out and then you cut the string You used to be alright What happened?
Did the cat get your tongue
Did your string come undone
One by one
One by one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow You used to be alright What happened?
Et cetera, et cetera
Facts for whatever
Fifteen steps
Then a shear drop How come I end up where I started? How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out then you cut the string
I'm white.
I'm black. I'm mixed. For something to be interesting to me it has to engage a numbers of issues.
To me music and art are the most sensual way to interpret what is surrounding us.
Yeah,
I'm sexy.
But I am broke. I can give a lot of love
with a little help from my friend. We will do great things
slam dunks and poetry.
We are going to share moments.
You will hold in your heart for ever. Please, tell me I'm not alone.
It will always be a pleasure for me remembering the time I met these two beautiful people.
It happened almost two years ago, when the duo came in Italy to perform music from their fifth album Cervantine (2011). And there was a moment, during the end of the show, when they both got down from the stage to play in the middle of a circle, young people had formed dancing sweat and full of joy!
...
The performances of their live soundtrack around Europe to the 1964 film Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors by Georgian-born Armenian film director Sergei Parajanov, inspired the duo to take their tribute to the film further away, using traditional Ukrainian music as a trampoline for new variations and themes.
Containing dialogues and parts of the movie, the new album You Have Already Gone to the Other World (2013) is a wild journey, and a shame not to be enjoyed by the masses.
'But my take on folk music is that it's evolving and changing, it is a living thing. As far as our music, we're kind of rootless wanderers, we're affected by all sorts of music, not only Eastern European music, and these things come up in our music so it's very mixed. We're just musicians who are doing what we love and doing what we feel we should be doing. The authenticity thing is, if you're looking for it, you won't find it with what we're doing. I guess our music is authentically A Hawk And A Hacksaw'. Jeremy Barnes
'Ride On/Right On': Whooping vocal and 808 drum beats are the focus, the production is echo-heavy and the guitar little more than abstract background choogling.

"I've always been happy with the records I've made...
But sonically, I think there's been something lacking. This time, I was getting really excited about the experimental sounds I was making".
'I'm sick and tired of being a nigga I don't wanna be another nigga, Tell the government, I don't wanna be another nigga, Tell htem white folk, I don't wanna be another nigga'

The album, Return of 4Eva, tends toward the nostalgic and seductive, while the lyrics promote a slightly elevated level of consciousness that still resides within the predetermined confines of hip-hop.
Dedication (4AD, 2011) is genuinely one for the fans.
Something created, crafted, cared for, that doesn't rely on the conjoined talents of other people; something that will always be able to relied upon when, perhaps, the human being behind it, can't.
The great magic of this record is that while acclimatisation to Zombyland is taking place, there's so much depth to explore, be it the bizarrely effective tonal shifts, the diversity of musical style, the sense of simplicity that, no doubt, veils immense complexity.

It is interesting to me how spiritual internal conditions change.
What I care is the exact point when it occurs. It should be called 'the making of'.
Personally I think that the action performed is a greater awareness of the quality of the world we live.
But it is good to know more about this aspect.
And it could be curious how this is reflected to the relationships with the people around us...
[NE SHQIP] Eshte interesante si gjendjet e brendshme shpirterore ndryshojne. Ajo qe me intereson eshte pika e sakte kur ndodh kthesa. Duhet te quhet 'pika e kryerjes'. Personalisht mendoj se aksioni qe kryhet eshte nje vetedije me e madhe mbi cilesine e botes ku jetojme. Por eshte mire sikur te dime me shume per kete aspekt. Kurioze eshte si kjo pasqyrohet ne marredheniet me njerezit qe na rrethojne...
With his Projecto Nuvem Argentinean artist Eduardo Coimbra brought the sky down to the ground and made it possible for us to walk through clouds and interact directly with his sculptural installation.
This is exactly what the multimedia artist, who studied engineering and architecture, actually aimed for:
to provoke people right where they live, where they move.
His huge site-specific installations seem like a synthetic constructions of our reality. He says that his work is related to space in a broader sense, many times forcing the boundaries between interiors and exteriors of art spaces. The three-dimensional work of clouds and skies, both motives that are very present in his work, consists out of five square light boxes, each 4.7 meters high, iron, translucent canvas printing, fluorescent lamps, and mirrors. Mirrors, that reflect the light during daytime and illuminated boxes that mimic the brightness at nighttime.
