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!

Fue sorprendente enterarse a fines del año pasado que el legendario Andy Hernandez, mas conocido como Coati Mundi, volvía al ruedo luego de 30 años de ausencia con el single No More Blues y de la mano del sello Rong. Pero lo mas increíble vino luego cuando se anuncio que No More Blues  era solo el single adelanto de un nuevo LP con material original llamado "Dancing for The Cabana Code in The Land of Boo-Hoo".
El disco sera editado el próximo 14 de Octubre y cuenta con la colaboración de Lee Douglas.
Pueden encontrar mas información acerca del release en el excelente blog Test Pressing.

Invitation


















Esta hipnótica canción fue seguramente un gran hit en un universo paralelo.
Se llama Invitation y fue grabada por el duo aleman Saada Bonaire en 1984.
El track forma parte del, creo yo, unico 12" editado por estas chicas.
Los 3 temas que componen el disco son impecables y fueron producidos por el gran Dennis Bovell.

Saada Bonaire - Invitation


--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This hypnotic slow motion disco tune was surely a big hit in a parallel universe.
It's called Invitation and it was recorded by the German duo Saada Bonaire in 1984.
This song is part of the, I think, only 12" released by these girls. All the three tracks in the record are excellent and were produced by the great Dennis Bovell.

Discomix


En 1980 el productor holandés Paul Natte mas conocido como Danny Boy edito su primer single llamado Repper De Klep. La canción era básicamente un cover del hit disco de Joe Bataan Rap-O-Clap pero con vocals en holandés.
Repper De Klep fue un éxito en Europa y motivo a Danny Boy a lanzar su segundo single en 1983, llamado Discomix.
El track no tuvo la repercusión esperada y con el pasar del tiempo se convirtió en un "collectors item".
Aqui les dejo la version con vocals. Todo en esta canción es oro puro: los sintes, la linea de bajo en plan electro y, por supuesto, el rapeo.
La calidad del rip es horrible, mil disculpas de antemano. Si alguien tiene una versión mejor, y tiene ganas de compartirla por favor hágamelo saber.

Danny Boy - Discomix (Vocal Version)




---------------------------------------------------------------------
In 1980 Dutch producer Paul Natte aka Danny Boy released his first single called Repper De Klep which was a cover version of Joe Bataan’s disco hit Rap-O-Clap with dutch vocals.
The track was an "eurohit" and encouraged him to release a second single called Discomix in 1983.
The track didn't succeed and became some kind of "collectors item" with the time.
Here's the vocal version. All in it is pure gold: the lush synths, the electro bassline and, of course, the cheesy rapping.
The rip quality is terrible so, sorry in advance for that. If you have a better version and want to share it. please let me know.
