A Guy Called Gerald

Once upon a time there was a young boy and his name was Gerald. He lived In Gerald Land and played Gerald music.
He had a dog that he also called Gerald. Gerald the guy and Gerald the dog didn't got along so well because Gerald the dog used to shit all around the house, so Gerald the guy kicked Gerald the dog out in the street.
Since then Gerald the guy is living alone playing peacefully his gerald music.
A Guy Called Gerald- Escape


Seminal house (and later drum & bass) artist from Moss Side, Manchester, England. His first and biggest hit, early Hacienda club classic ‘Voodoo Ray’ from the UK acid house explosion of 88/89, has proven to be one of the most enduring pieces of music from the period. Got his name because he sent his early demos to DJ Stu Allan, of local Manchester radio station Piccadilly Radio, who used to play the tracks on air introducing them as being by “a guy called Gerald from Moss Side”.

BestFest 2008 ( Day 3)

Am început ziua a 3-a cu Stereophonics după care nu mă omor în vreun fel. Nu ştiu alţii cum sunt, dar eu m-am plictisit.
Am aşteptat cu destul de mult entuziasm concertul lui Roisin Murphy, dar, având în vedere că a întarziat vreo oră, mi-a pierit tot cheful pe parcurs. Ea a cântat ok, dar mă aşteptam la mai mult. Cam obosită domnişoara. Nu-mi dau seama ce s-a întâmplat.
În schimb surpriza surprizelor a fost Manu Chao care a ţopăit 2 ore într-una.
Piesele au sunat complet diferit faţă de cum sună pe album, a fost atmosferă, publicul a sărit, a bătut din palme şi a cântat până la sfârşit, i-au chemat pe băieţi la bis şi au venit de 2 ori. Nu mai puteau nici ei nici noi de oboseală şi de bucurie.
A fost cel mai mişto concert din tot festivalul.
Cât despre festival per total: frumos, organizat bine, aşteptăm cu dor în piept ediţia viitoare.

Roisin Murphy- You Know Me Better live



Manu Chao- clandestino ( Live BestFest 08 )

BestFest 2008 ( Day 2)

Slăbuţ.
Cred că ziua a doua a fost cea mai slabă zi din festival.
Cand am ajuns eu incepuseră să cânte Hot Stewards de care m-am lămurit rapid şi am plecat la Deluka ... Acolo ce să vezi?! O domnşioară cu nişte pantaloni mov de leopard cu o voce nu tocmai rea, dar stilul cam penal. Un fel de Iron Maiden în varianta 2000 cu o gagicuţă la voce.
Pe aceeaşi scenă au urmat cei de la Neo care au cam luat-o în bască deoarece au cântat în acelaşi timp cu Manic Street Preachers, drept urmare a fost o mână de oameni la Neo şi nici ăia nu păreau să aibă de gand să ramană, bineînţeles că şi eu am făcut la fel.
Am ajuns la Manic Street Preachers după care nu mă omor prea tare, ca de obicei, nu mi-au atras atenţia cu nimic. Ei canta bine. au sunat ok, păcat că nu prea îmi plac.
Nouvelle Vague au fost draguţi. De fiecare dată când îi aud nu pot să trec peste faptul că seamănă foarte mult cu Morceeba.
Aştept cu interes Roisin Murphy şi Manu Chao.

Neo- Record Straight


Manic Street Preachrs- Umbrella


Nouvelle Vague- Love Will Tear Us Apart

BestFest 2008 ( Day 1)

Ziua I a început pentru mine cu 3 beri şi 2 mici ... I am Romanian/ i like to eat!
După acest "răsfăţ culinar" am mers direct la Apollo 440 care a fost cam nasol aşa, dar pentru încalzire a fost ok.
A urmat Miss Platnum care a fost foaaarteee tareee. Cu o rochiţa de fetiţa şi cu sticla de vodka rocked the show. Frumos, corect, funny.
Eram cam nedumerită cum s-o dreg cu Unke şi cu Cypress Hill. Iniţial mă gândisem să merg jumate-jumate, dar Cypress Hill a sunat fix ca un cur, drept pentru care m-am cărat urgent la Unkle care nu s-a comparat în nici un fel cu mizeria de la Cypress Hill.
Ah, şi am mai stat şi la vreo 3 piese d-ale lu' doamna Morissette, o piesa ok si alte două de căcat cum mă aşteptam.

Miss Platnum feat Pete Fox- Marry Me

Prefab Sprout are an English pop band from Witton Gilbert, County Durham formed in 1976, who rose to fame during the 1980s. Though critically acclaimed, and considered by many to have released some of the best pop albums of the decade, the band never matched this acclaim with as much commercial success.
Their biggest commercial and critical success came with 1990’s Jordan: The Comeback, which was a hit in the UK and nominated for a Brit award.

In 2003, Audio Bullys dropped their debut album ‘Ego War’ and emerged from the UK to re-ignite a rapidly fading state of dance music. Blending choice cuts of house, hip-hop, punk, soul and UK garage they joined Basement Jaxx, Stanton Warriors and The Streets to lead a movement that cracked chin-stroking, head-bobbing hipsters square in the jaw. Now, the Bullys return to the scene of the crime with the new album ‘Generation’. Once again, Tom Dinsdale’s expertly crafted beats, bass and breakdowns join the street-smart lyrics of Simon Franks to create another soundtrack to urban life in London.

Arts the Beatdoctor is a Dutch producer from Hilversum, The Netherlands. With his debut EP “Fragments” in 2006, the beatdoctor showed his musical diversity with a collection of jazz inflicted hip-hop tracks which were mostly characterized by their nightly atmosphere. With his full-length debut album “Transitions” in 2007 he continued on this road in a truly original way. The album featured 15 tracks, and was the product of three years of sampling, tweaking and composing. Comparisons to artists such as DJ Shadow, Krush and RJD2 spring to mind with his blend of atmospheric and cinematic hip-hop beats.

Ispiral Carpets

Today I'll tell you about a nice couple.
They were together for 3 years and willing to get married and have children someday.
One evening they went out for a walk. They did what lovers do: holding hands, kissing, "I love you!", "No, I love you more", until they were robbed and killed.

Inpriral Carpets -Saturn 5


The Manchester-based Inspiral Carpets was formed in 1986, and emerged alongside bands like The Stone Roses and Happy Mondays, from the indie scene of the late 1980s and early 1990s. Their sound is based around harmonic (and often psychedelic) keyboards and jangly guitars. The band were propelled to fame after being ‘discovered’ by the Radio 1 DJ John Peel and had their greatest chart success in the UK with a single entitled This Is How It Feels, which is a song about loneliness and unemployment.

Shukar play ursari music (ursar means “bear tamer” or “bear handler”) using spoons, wooden barrels or darabouka to create a powerful and urgent sound that is emotional and soulful at the same time. Urban Gypsy combines Shukar’s original ursari music with the new technology of the collective, resulting in their distinctive sound.

Marcy Playground- Coming Up From Behind


Named for the formative location in lead singer John Wozniak’s childhood, the Marcy Open grade school in Minneapolis, Marcy Playground emerged in the late 1990s with clean and subdued alternative rock.
Wozniak’s first effort, “Zog BogBean - From the Marcy Playground”, was a self-produced labor of love, recorded in his bedroom studio with some help from his then-girlfriend Sherry Fraser in the early nineties. A small run of CD’s was self-released by Wozniak, and to this day it remains extremely difficult to find, and highly sought after. Most copies that surface for sale go for over $100.

Mary Jane, you are the champ!

Gogol Bordello- Not A Crime


Combining elements of punk, gypsy music, and Brechtian cabaret, Gogol Bordello tells the story of New York’s immigrant diaspora through debauchery, humor, and surreal costumes. Leader and singer Eugene Hütz’s taste in music was spun out of black-market tapes of the The Birthday Party and Einstürzende Neubauten in his native Ukraine.
After being evacuated to Western Ukraine in 1986 following the Chernobyl disaster, Hütz became enamored of the mystical, outsider qualities of gypsy music. Living as a refugee in Poland, Hungary, Austria, and Italy before moving to the United States in 1993, he experienced life as an outsider himself.

Laibach is an industrial project that was started in Trbovlje, Slovenia, in 1980. Their name is taken from the German name for Slovenia’s capital Ljubljana, and this reference to World War II occupation was the first of many provocative and ambiguous statements in their long and chameleonic career. Laibach were founder members of the art movement NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst — “New Slovenian Art”) and are one of the few musical groups able to claim real influence on the history of their home country.

Eagles of Death Metal is the embodiment of all fuzzed out, overdriven guitar rock to shake your booty to. Don’t look for deeper meanings or avant-garde synthesizer tricks, because these Eagles are strictly business. On their first album, Jesse “The Devil” Hughes tackles the subjects of dancing, dancing, speed, boogeying (see: Dancing), sex, and killing his ex-wife, all with smooth falsetto vocals, infectious guitar by Tim Vanhamel from Millionaire, and Josh Homme’s solid percussion skills. The grand idea of the Eagles of Death Metal is to make music that people will enjoy, that doesn’t have to be taken too seriously.
