Post 2010

...y se fue 2010 nomas.
Realmente, no creo que haya sido un año significativo musicalmente hablando.
2010 me dio la sensación de ser el año en el que todas las tendencias de los ultimos 5 años se afianzaron y comenzaron a saturar a todo el mundo.
 Ese hastío hizo que pasen dos cosas:  En primer lugar volví a sus discos preferidos, esos clásicos que se sienten como un refugio en el que uno se queda hasta que por la ventana se vea que afuera pasa algo divertido. Por otro lado escuchè mucha música "rara", música que no alcanzo a entender si es genial, o es simplemente un esfuerzo desesperado de alguien que, al igual que yo, se saturò y quiso huir hacia algun lado.
La forma cíclica en que se comportan las modas y estilos hace que haya años en los que se habla de música post "algo". Recuerdo esos años en que las revistas inventaron el genero post rock, o a fines de los 70s cuando todo era post punk.
El 2010 fue post ...que?
Obviamente, no digo que 2010 no tuviese sus oasis. Me refiero a esos músicos que sacan oro de donde no parece haber nada mas que chatarra, o esos bloggers que en su revisionismo descubren perlas negras que deben haber sido inmensos hits en universos paralelos.
A toda esa gente talentosa que hizo que 2010 tuviera sus sorpresas, gracias!

------------------------------------------------------
...and that was it. 2010 is gone.
I really don't think that 2010 was a relevant year, musically speaking.
2010 gave me the overall feeling of being that kind of period in which all tendencies got established and start to saturate us.
That boredom made me follow two different paths. In the first place I came back to my favorite albums. Those classics that feel like a refuge to stay until you look through the window and see that something exciting is going on outside. Secondly I heard lots of "weird" music: that kind of stuff that you cant tell if is genius or is just a desperate effort to escape towards unexplored territories made by someone who's bored, just like me.
The cyclic behavior in music and fashion causes that kind of years in which all music is post "something". I remember those years in which magazines invented the post rock genre or back in the the late seventies when all was about post punk.
2010 was post ...what?
Obviously I am not saying that 2010 didn't have its own oasis: those musicians that found gold where you only see trash and those bloggers/archeologists that discovered black pearls that must have been huge hits in parallel universes.
BIG THANKS to the all the people who made 2010 a year with surprises!
