Such a simple and powerful song! One of Cursive's most - let's say - serious songs and definitely one of the most beautiful ones. I've decided tonight I'm staying alive just kicking and screaming And I, I'm staying alive Blood boiling and streaming ( Staying Alive by Cursive ) Filed under: cherry treats , musics
Just the fell good song I needed these days. I found it yesterday, following a link on twitter and it turns out to be one of those love-at-first-hearing songs I enjoy so much finding. It gives me such a summerish felling. If only it wouldn't be so damn cold outside. Old freinds in dark places Old scars on their faces One good friend Makes up for Ten bad ones Tenfold ( [...]
Dear Mark Linkous, I hope that wherever you are right now, your pony recognizes your voice. Thanks for all the beautiful music. I miss you. Yours truly. ( More Yellow Birds by Sparklehorse ) Filed under: cherry treats , musics
Yesterday I did a little spring cleaning, and organized all the corners in my gmail. I came across this email I sent to someone, regarding my let's call them music related habits. I decided to post this - with a few cuts that were intended for the original receiver -, since I really enjoyed reading it after almost 2 years. "I never actually thought about all the small things Me and Music have...rituals, secrets, stuff like that. So what this mail will become, might be a surprise even for me [...]
3 years of caffeine and music today. My, how time flies. Thanks for putting up with me. I really love this place, even though sometimes I neglect it for days and days. This is how it started Filed under: cherry treats
I do know that by now it's everywhere, I posted it here and there too, but seriously, how can I not put it everywhere. I absolutely love how Thom dances and feels the music: he's so uninhibited and so well synchronised with the beat. Besides that, I'm really lovin the song, especially the vocals. Love at first hearing/watching. Filed under: cherry treats , musics , video
This month we have White Walls from Constanta representing Romania on the MAP and lots of other goodies from all over the world. Enjoy! Filed under: babylon noise related , cherry treats
When I was in high school I used to watch a lot of movies on TV with my mum. Most of the times on HBO. Didn't really matter what it was, we would sit and watch the first few minutes to see if it gets to us. One evening we were watching Crazy/Beautiful and suddenly a song hit me hard. From the very first notes. I scribbled a few lyrics to search them on the internet. I found out it was Emiliana Torrini 's To Be Free . I couldn't find her music anywhere at [...]
For a few days now I find myself hearing this little piece of music in my head. This happens especially when I wake up, or walk the streets without music in my ears (you know, going to the kiosk down the corner to buy some little thing, I don't really take my player with me for those 5 minutes out), suddenly the songs starts singing. It's a good one, that's for sure. The constant rhythm in the back and the explosions of instruments all over it; the pretty pretty voice that repeats the same lyrics like an incantation. What [...]
Sudden events, then the holidays, then the post holiday daze pretty much kept me away from here. But I'm back, with a bit of a recap. Music releases wise, I've already done some recaps on Babylon Noise . For the non-Romanian readers here, I'm sorry you can't get all I wrote. Top 50 albums released in 2010 here , and something about the EPs, Romanian albums and concerts here (the important info - names and such - is in bold). Also. 2010 is the year I discovered some new to [...]
![[2010] The Mono Jacks – Now In Stereo](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3051927_lg.jpg)
A rather new Romanian project (the guys are experimented musicians though) at their debut. A quite good album, with a pretty cover and catchy tunes. ( Come Back Girl by The Mono Jacks ) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats , musics
![[2010] Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan – Hawk](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3048825_lg.jpg)
Some people say that this album's not as good as the previous ones. But to me, this combination of voices will probably always be a winner; I enjoy Hawk just as much. ( Come Undone by Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats , musics
![[2010] Bryan Ferry – Olympia](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3045959_lg.jpg)
The latest solo by Roxy Music 's Bryan Ferry . What an amazing voice this man has! A simple, light, and beautiful album. I've been listening to this song for about 20 times in a row tonight and it's still not enough. Yes, this is my newest musical crush That look in your eyes the brush of your cheek These are the moments in life that I seek No reason or rhyme, no [...]
![[2010] Fistful of Mercy – As I Call You Down](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3042848_lg.jpg)
This is a new band, formed by the experienced musicians Dhani Harrison , Ben Harper and Joseph Arthur . I'm not blown away by this album, but it's quite a good listen. And this song, I really really love. ( Fistful of Mercy by Fistful of Mercy ) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats , musics
![[2010] Deftones – Diamond Eyes](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3038882_lg.jpg)
From the first listening, I perceived Diamond Eyes as a return to the old Deftones days. I'm not complaining, on the contrary, I was really happy to get the same great vibe I got from White Pony or Around the Fur. ( Rocket Skates by Deftones ) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats [...]
![[2010] Get Well Soon – Vexations](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3036533_lg.jpg)
Get Well Soon is the project of Konstantin Gropper , a weird guy who sings nice music. I don't like this second one one quite like his first album, but it's still good. As a plus, the cover is a painting - one of the Pie Fight Studies - by the Romanian Adrian Ghenie (which apparently is much more famous outside his country). ( Angry Young Man by Get Well Soon [...]
![[2010] Eluvium – Similes](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3033614_lg.jpg)
It's a snow storm outside, and I'm warming up inside under a blanket, with Eluvium pouring out from my speakers. That was what I felt the first time I listened to them: warmth and cosiness. Similes is one of those few ambient albums which doesn't get lost at some point, and you forget it's playing somewhere in the background. It's there, present, getting under your skin, contributing to your mood. Very beautiful artwork, as usually. [...]
![[2010] Max Richter – Infra](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3030273_lg.jpg)
This is the kind of album you just sit back, close your eyes, and enjoy. That's how I listen to it, and it's a pretty good experience. And here's how it starts: ( Infra 1 by Max Richter ) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats , musics
![[2010] Persona – Suburbia Afterlife](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3027601_lg.jpg)
After some good years of making themselves known for their live performances and their Brit look and sound, Persona finally released their debut album. A Romanian band I totally recommend. ( Suburbia Afterlife by Persona ) Filed under: album covers , cherry treats , musics
