A small pop oriented playlist that I’ve been playing all  noon. The songs on it have some sort of colourful sonic ballsiness that sounds perfectly apt at daylight and might provide you some temporary shelter for the withering cold weather. Both the Michachu and Here We Go Magic albums are some of my favorite listens from this year so far and they’re really, really worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend you to lend them and ear when you have the chance.

note: ‘Freight Train’ will not stream correctly since it has a frequency rate higher than the other songs and playtagger has trouble playing files on a high freq but the song shouldn’t have any problems playing on any media player in your computer once you download it.

    It’s not polite to keep the little finger up when you hold in your hand a cup of something :)

    Reflecting a little bit more on that picture I think it wants to tell the tears of a girl that saw his boyfriend while he was kissing another girl, and - reflecting on herself - her will to cry all those tears in once untill to empty the bottle of water that keep alive the flowers of her love.
    The little finger tells the violence of the passion on both sides.
    This was a nice fantasy movie, isn’t it? :)

    Beautiful image, in short.

    emiliana torrini me ha vuelto a perturbar… me gusta! pero tienes razon, no tiene un estilo que la defina, aún no decido si eso es genial o no.

    That Micachu song sounds great. I’ll check the whole album out.

    He probado ‘Freight train’ a través del reproductor del blog, y he de decir que la versión distorsionada no deja de ser interesante. Casi me gusta más que la original :-)

    Salud!

The song makes its imprint
in the air, making itself felt,
a felt world. Here, there,
the stunned silence

of knowing I will not remember
what I heard;

futures that will never happen,
a fluidity we cannot achieve
except as a child
creating possibility.

This is the untranslatable song
hidden in the earth.
