Anche se non propriamente un classico natalizio, " Forbidden colors " di David Sylvian & Ryuichi Sakamoto uscì nella colonna sonora del film " Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence " (in Italia con il titolo "Furyo") del 1983 interpretato, tra gli altri, da David Bowie . Un pezzo straordinario che ebbe anche un grande successo. Eccolo, per chi non lo (ri)conoscesse.

So petite like a newborn. So soft. So little, but so much. So different. Nassau surprises with minimal beating, japanese vocals and adorable beauty. Mp3: David Sylvian & Ryuichi Sakamoto - Bamboo Houses (Nassau Edit)
Every night is wedding night in my bed My eyes are closed but I can see ...sky stretched overhead ...mattress on the floor ...faces at my door And every night is wedding night and I'm set

I'm currently completely in love with the music of Rhys Marsh And The Autumn Ghost . Beautiful and very interesting to listen to at the same time. Rhys Marsh is originally from London, UK, but lives in Trondheim, Norway at the moment. On November 3rd, he will release his debut album "The Fragile State Of Inbetween" on Better Place Recordings . On the album, he uses as much as 17 musicians from bands like Jaga Jazzist, Änglagård and Anekdoten, and the result is stunningly beautiful and organic music that goes [...]

In the US, the figurative summer starts on Memorial Day and ends on Labor Day , which is this Monday. So, in a reflective mood, I've found myself contemplating what this summer brought me and I can say "nothing and everything". For some, the approach of Fall means it's time to return to the same old grind. For others, it's an occasion of renewal. One thing for sure - it's colder. Here's some tunes to help say goodbye to the Summer. Can you think of any I might have missed? [...]

- I never could see anyone besides you / Believe it or not (probably not) - Hearts sink as incompatabilities are realised. Repeat cycle arguments, ritualised tensions, stress that could tear distant worlds apart. Not so, it is all merely 'discussion', 'debate' or 'another point of view'. A feeler more than a thinker, it is said, suggested, indicated, accused. But one without the other? Can it be? And yes, it is true, it is all on an endless sinking scale, a spectrum of psychological 'self' making, for sure. I know [...]

mp3: Japan - Nightporter mp3: Japan - Ghosts mp3: Japan - Quiet Life mp3: Japan - Canton 80'li yılların en şık ve en sofist grubu Japan , David Bowie'nin etkisinde kaydettikleri iki glam-rock albümünden sonra uhrevi arayışlara yönelmiş, üçleme misali birbirini tamamlayan çalışmalarıyla art-rock ve new romantic tanımlarını belirsizlikten kurtarmıştı. Daha etnik ve eğlenceli bir müzikle Japan'ı listelerde 5 numaraya çıkaran 'Tin Drum'ın ardından ayrılma kararı alan grup üyeleri, daha sonraki çalışmalarında Japan'den ayrı [...]

Considering that the dates of anniversaries and birthdays vary from person to person, it would not be entirely unrealistic to deem Valentine's Day as the most universally abundant day for the exchanging of mix tapes. After all, the process of compiling a mix of emotionally suitable tunes for a loved one has nearly caught up to the ranks of flowers and chocolates as being a staple of Valentine's Day. With this in mind, since there remains a large amount of people today stuck in a state of seemingly perpetual loneliness, I figured it would be more productive to compile a [...]

Berlin'de doktoralarını yapan kuzenim ve eşi, on günlüğüne İstanbul 'a geldi. Berlin'de neler yaptıklarını daha önceki ziyaretlerinde bahsettiklerinden, dikkatimi çeken ve anlamaya çalıştığım, rahatlıklarıydı . Onları dinlerken, ilkokul ikinci sınıfta yanımda oturan, ablası Avrupa 'dan çikolata/oyuncak filan getiren arkadaşıma karşı duyumsadıklarıma benzer bir imrenme sezdim kendimde. Sonra da, Fazıl Say ülkeyi terk edeceğini söyledi. Haksız değil fakat gitse de/kalsa da değişecek bir şey olmayacağından, ''ya sev-ya terket'' diyen çoğunluğun abartılı tepkisiyle sahte yürek sesleri kulak tırmalayacak. Yeni Yök başkanı, Kuzey Irak , anayasa çalışmaları, Şemdinli davasından çıkan üzücü sonuç, tayi, taya, [...]

September isn't a month. It's upheaval. Or renewel, depending on your circumstance. It's when the world pivots back into step, separating ourselves from the sweet tea afternoons of August, embracing sharp pencils, early Monday morning meetings and dry-cleaned dress shirts. "What Were the Chances" - Damien Jurado I'm usually excited about September. It's my birth month. It's back-to-school time. It's when I can finally start to feel productive again, after a long summer spent hungover by the watercooler. A welcome shift [...]
