felicidades a los chicos de Suturee que les hicieron un review en la página de NPR:

(copy/paste- con link a la página abajo)

NPR.org, January 27, 2009 - Certain albums seem to lend themselves to a particular season. Some bands make music that beautifully accompanies those long, lazy summer days spent in the shade. Other artists, like today's group, Suturee, perfectly compliment the bleakness of winter, even though the band is originally from sunny San Juan, Puerto Rico. Suturee's self-titled debut album is mellow and melodic without aggravating your Seasonal Affective Disorder. Suturee channels the warmth and coziness of an afternoon spent by the fire, sipping hot chocolate while the snow falls.

Like other moody groups (Mojave 3, Adem, A Weather), Suturee makes a languid blend of folk, pop, and shoegaze. The instrumentation is richly textured, but the gently sung vocals of chief members Julian Brau and Rebecca Adorno are the key to the group's appeal. As the band's name implies, Suturee makes music for those who have felt the sting of sutures or encountered "the disease of sound" mysteriously alluded to in the track "Me To Meet."

The Deviants 3
[Transatlantic, 1969]

"The DEVIANTS were winding up the hippy establishment a decade before punk. Kafka, Burroughs, Quatermass movies, Maxfield Parrish, LSD 25, riots and amphetamines were complementing their sound, inspired by the Fugs, Eddie Cochran, British R&B and the Mothers Of Invention." - Alive Naturalsound Records

Supuestamente, cuando en los sesentas los hippies estaban tripiando con acido y jodiendas, esta gente se injectaba metadrina mientras paquiaban el resto en latas de coca cola.

The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
[Slumberland, 2009]

On the poppier side of shoegaze. Suena como una mezcla entre pop ochentoso y jangly guitars. lindo.

mr. finchley dice: "Suena algo como si Morrisey no fuese tan llorón y estuviese en Black Tambourine."- perfect description.

Aquarela do Brasil
[Verve,1987]

"Recorded in 1969, during a "howling snowstorm" in Stockholm Sweden of all places, the Brazilian Super-Diva, Elis Regina, and the acclaimed jazz master, Toots Thielemans, conjured up a steaming, mid-summer Brazilian beach in the studio. Elis is on fire throughout and clearly having alot of fun! Her musical quintet, Elis Cinco, is brilliant and audibly enthusiastic. Singing with a wide range of emotions and tossing off gymnastic phrases with ease, Elis is incredible! She wields her voice like a knief, cutting quickly and deeply into each song. Toots is equally brilliant and the entire ensemble plays like old musical friends. I speak no Portuguese but this music is as clear as a crystal. " - comentario en amazon.com

Wailers


One Love at Studio One (2disc set)
[Poli-Rhythm, 1991]

Compilación de primeras grabaciones (sin alterar) de The Wailers en el famoso Studio One en Kingston, Jamaica con la voz de Bob Marley en su etapa post-pubertosa junto a Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer, y la encantadora Beverly Kelso. NADA DE REGGAE!! Estas canciones son lo mejor del ska tradicional, 60's R&B y pop, con dos o tres tirando al rocksteady. Aunque respeto al señor Marley por su aportación a la 'música global' y por ser el soundtrack de los primeros seccions de todo chamaquito metido en un capsulón... me tripea más cuando le cantaba a las nenas, a los rude boys pa' que chile'en, y al puro hecho de poner a gente a bailar.

La Increible Aventura

[Acuarela, 2004]

"Migala was a rock-based experimental band hailing from Madrid, Spain. The band was known for its complex, varied, and often cathartic musical arrangements, heavily influenced by pop, post-rock, folk, and traditional Spanish music...

...Nacho Vegas, ex-guitarist Manta Ray, was a member of Migala from Arde up til the Increible Aventura, while at the same time releasing albums under his own name and with his band, Las Esferas Invisibles."
