ARGENTINA : Zonaindie Ivana Berenstein - Ahora The songs of young singer-songwriter Ivana Berenstein follow certain traditions from Argentine folk music, bossa nova and bolero, but add modern textures and harmonies to it. Ahora is the first single from her debut album No Te Duermas and has Coiffeur (check out MAP December 2009) as a guest vocalist. AUSTRALIA : Who The Bloody Hell [...]
This month's MAP contains no new music from me, but instead an overdue inclusion of David Thomas Broughton. The only problem with introducing him to a worldwide audience is that he can never really be appraised on his music alone. It's not that his recorded output is anything short of ...

Luna aceasta avem la MAP promițătoarea trupă Mono Jacks din București, cu piesa Maria. Dacă nu știți nimic de ei, veți recunoaște sigur vocea lui Doru, din fostul AB4. Mă bucur de fiecare dată când aud o piesă faină cu numele ăsta, pentru că - să fim serioși - trebuie multe piese să spele păcatele lui Ricky Martin și a domnului al cărui nume nu-l cunosc, dar cânta suav Maria, Maria, ce nume frumos, la fel ca sufletul din tine ; aceste 2 melodii care mi-o torturat copilăria și adolescența, toată lunea fiind suficient de simpatică [...]

Here's how they explained the concept of MAP (for anyone who doesn't already know what it is): "On the 15th day of each month, [the MAP bloggers] cross post an identical list of every member's local band of the moment, accompanied by a description and sample mp3. MAP is a monthly global compilation tape from a not-for-profit musical cartel, one that exposes the bands (most untouched by [...]
