YMA SUMAC - DIVE EKZOTIKE, TAVAN I TE CUDITSHMES, MBRETERESHE E FANTASTIKES, VIRGJERESHE E DIELLIT ('GOPHER MAMBO', 1954)

Nje koktej peruvian mjaft i rrezikshem per shendetin beri buje ne vitet '50!
Jo vetem per vecorite zanore (akute) qe ngjallte ne kendim, por sidomos per vetpermbajten fizike e mendore dhe per menyrat e rezervuara ne kercimet ekzotike qe pasonin... Nuk i shpetonte askend dehjes. Te gjithe i bienin nder gjunje ketij kokteji; quhej Yma Sumac.
Diva peruviane e muzikes ethnic/latin/exotic/mambo/jazz/cabaret, e cila me zerin alien (kesaj rradhe nuk kam pershkrim tjeter!), shtangu veshet tona kur e degjuam per here te pare ne nje videoprojektim filmash amerikano-latin...
Endrra erotike neper mbremje xhunglash, teater grotesk me skena gjigante, reputacione tipit 'fuego del Ande'/'virgjereshe e Diellit', bizhuteri te perlyera me mjalte kulturash pre-kolumbiane, kercime hipersensuale, veshje ekstravagante, ze prej gjysme-hyjnie; faleminderit Yma!

ELECTRELANE - 'GONE UNDER SEA' [THE POWER OUT, 2004]

A la belle étoile
J'ai vu ton visage gris
T'avais un chagrin d'amour
Les mensonges, c'est désespéré

Où est la cavalière?
Tu n'es plus brave
Je t'ai perdue dans la foule
Tu as coulé sous les flots
 
Brighton, United Kingdom (1998 – 2007) Electrelane were a all-female band from Brighton, England.
They were formed in 1998 by Verity Susman (keyboards, farfisa organ, lead vocals, guitar, saxophone, clarinet) and Emma Gaze (drums). 
Listening to them live, it seems like you are in front of a new college so-excited band, but the not-evident structures of tracks and the all-time really rough sound makes it lovely.
It reminds me, in particular, Stereolab or Sonic Youth...
Such nice things to hear, anyway!    



MARINE GIRLS - '20,000 LEAGUES' [LAZY WAYS/BEACH PARTY, 1983]

Since they knew no drummers, the group decided to focus on a minimalist approach to music...
And I learnt that '20,000 leagues (under the sea)' was not only a title of a book.

CHIARA MAZZOCCHI - HUMAN ALIENATION [FOTOGRAFI]

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
'The political and social system that they want to live us, destroys humanity, leaving unconscious in front of everything.
THE ONLY SALVATION IS INSIDE OURSELF.
...
I have expressed this tension with the use of stockings, female symbol, which instead becomes death trap inner obstacle to reunification with nature. Nature is the theme that stands in front of my sense of imprisonment imposed on the social mechanism.
There is a window that is repeated often alienating to obsessive repetition to natural faults, which cuts the field looking for an intimate contact with me.
The video ends with spaces left blank because there is complete indifference around, and the human individual is so sneaky, he doesn't leave traces visibly striking'.

WARPAINT :: DREAM-POP AND THE LOVE FOR PURITY

















Warpaint - 'Set Your Arms Down'

Out on the back porch
you say tonight
We bring our pocket
our pocket knives

You want to fight me
you want to fight
forgotten sense of me
saya, saya

And in the backyard
into the night
we walk through fire
my love is your flashlight

They want to fight me
they want to fight
forgotten sense of me
saya, saya

Walk through the fire
walk 'till it gets light
there is no hiding
to save your life

You've got to try

Say you're me now
Set your arms down

POLIÇA - 'DARK STAR'

Merr nje ritem down-beat te viteve '80, kampjono nje ze femeror, regjistro dhe le neper blog komente si: alt-indie, dark-female-voice, drum-game, mid-80's sound etj etj...
Ose mund ta interpretojme ndryshe: Poliça eshte nje grup i fshehur qe ka nxjerre kete gjurme pseudo-indie dhe qe duam apo s'duam ne, pelqehet shume nga komunitetet ne rrjet! Kete shohim ne nga jashte te pakten. Dhe tani qe e degjuam edhe ne te FV, kane te drejte ta luajne track-un vazhdimisht neper webfaqe 'underground'.
Poliça me 'Dark Star' ia arrijne plotesisht ketij qellimi. Dhe ne kenaqim veshet me muzike te re.
Ose... relativisht te re!
