Probably with the following article I will lose the sympathy of the few metallari rimasti: pazienza, non per questo passerò nottate in bianco. Piuttosto, il vero "dilemma" che assilla la mente di noi morbosi è questo: che fine ha fatto la disco dance? Quelle canzoni, magari stupidelle, ma che ti facevano scorrere il ritmo e la voglia di ballare? Quelle che canticchiavi tutto il santo giorno e magari danzavi in ascensore? Partendo dagli Spargo , Indeep , Imagination (band queste, in cui il basso la faceva da padrone), passando per l'intamontabile Falco , Black Box , Via Verdi (i rockettari!!!), per arrivare ai più recenti ma altrettanto validi 2 Unlimited , Ti.Pi.Cal (i picciotti !!!), Robert Miles and Gala ? And we want to talk about the spirit of those times, that shit happened to it? For many people, now, to go dancing means being systematically screwed by prices preposterous disco "famous" stand there and make up the numbers on the track, boasting that the mere fact of being there, and then invariably get drunk or descend a paste to defeat the boredom that assails them. I think instead of those who really loves dance music knows that there is no need of bullshit to have fun: just getting carried away by the melodies and maybe go back to the busty blonde view the piano bar, and you're done! I will be perhaps too nostalgic, but the youth of today make me sick: a generation born old who does not know why grown more fun in what was once the revolution . Who now lives these phenomena has grown accustomed to everything, and gives everything for granted. The music is like Playstation, mobile phones or the hoes they admire on TV while I, their age, I looked at Holly & Benji rather than all in the field with lots . Hardcore (not the punk, unfortunately), minimal, techno , Cock and decks ... but cos' is this shit? dog God: Give us back Dr. Alban!
"We don't have a great war in our generation, or a great depression, but we do, we have a great war of the spirit. We have a great revolution against the culture. The great depression is our lives. We have a spiritual depression. "

Single Frequency of the month. Album "Outside" - self - highly recommended.
*********
interesting to note that almost everywhere "Outside" is defined as "an album all in all mature" but of "a band in search of its own sound ". It is soundly rejected by major magazines and webzines (with very few exceptions).
If you think about "mature" and "seeking their own sound" are not exactly agree.
Invito chi legge queste righe ad ascoltare con le proprie orecchie e non farsi mai trarre in inganno.
In generale più della metà delle recensioni in giro sono scopiazzate a destra e a manca dalle principali fonti giornalistiche.
E' bene sapere quanto anche le principali fonti giornalistiche siano influenzate da un sacco di cose, non ultime le pressioni delle case discografiche, agenzie di distribuzione, etc.
In poche parole (non sempre, ma spesso) anche nella musica come in tantissimi altri campi, il "do ut des" viene usato per reciproci interessi.
In questo specifico caso c'è poi una cosa molto importante da aggiungere and on which it is absolutely necessary to dwell: the self.
Why a band on the third album they self, giving up the sponsorship of its label (the XL Recordings - one of the largest independent labels in circulation, a quasi-major)?
Why do not you want to stay under the dictates of anyone.
Why has clear ideas about what he wants to do.
Why want to express themselves as they see fit.
would be good from this, I suppose, before drawing its conclusions. Yet not a
review that I read about "Outside" (all very similar in truth, I wonder why ...) addresses this issue, but arrived at diametrically opposite conclusions with respect to the obvious intent of the choices of self-production of the group.
I regret to think badly. But I've seen so many good records do not sell because of a poor reputation in the media.
