'emerging music' in December, the third part
Lenula - Lenula *** I listened
Lenula of interest with this EP, the band that was born in Villa Castelli (Brindisi), which began operations in October of 2007, participating in numerous concerts and local events in Puglia.
The authors of reference, sometimes still in their concerts with original gifts were Paolo Conte, Tom Waits, Fred Hammond, The Doors, Fabrizio De Andrè, Lucio Battisti, and these influences I would say that they feel all the work. So mix of blues and swing to a rock deep thanks to the warm voice of the singer. Lenula is a wild flower and wild defined this trio.

Lilith - Sidenotes ***
After 10 years of activity and four years after the album pecedente
A different abilities, they return with the Lilith
Sidenotes , recorded by Manuel Volpe at Red House Recording in Senigallia.
This album because I liked it sounds ranging from rock and pop sounds decidedly more melodic, with lyrics very original and intense. The writing is truly original songwriting and reminded me of something better songwriting. One of my favorite cities
visible, very romantic talking about cities like Milan, The next generation
, beautiful with the refrain "Beauty is not created but destroyed / more than one bene è un lascito” , dove la voce di Emanuele Principi raggiunge note alte e intense:
Nido curiosamente mi ha ricordato gli Interpol;
M-theory molto ritmata e incalzante. Un altro brano
La notte che ... comincia in sordina e poi sfocia in un ritornello davvero intenso con chitarre presenti ed un testo romaticissimo; la mia preferita
As-Sumut vede l’incedere sapiente delle chitarre e la voce che sa davvero emozionare.
Davvero un gran bel disco, vario e originale, ben suonato.

Juta - Running through hoops ***** Delicatissime impronte lasciate sulla neve and immediately covered with white flakes. Endless landscapes where the heather is buffeted by the wind, then suddenly here is a wood, with a majestic bird of prey that flies between conifers and silent at the foot of a mountain. These images describe a wonder the debut album of Jute,
Running through hoops.
The album, recorded in Canada by Howard Bilerman, former drummer of the Arcade Fire and musician and contributor to Thee Silver Mount Zion, Basia Bulat, Gospeed You! Black Emperor and Vic Chesnutt, the work has attracted comparisons to Cat Power, Mazzy Star, and Beth Gibbons from Belgian and German press. Behind this project are Peter's Italian-Canadian channels (already with Moltheni Wurlitzer piano), Barbara Adly, Ettore Formicone, Dario Mazzucco e Pierluigi Aielli. I punti di forza di questo lavoro sono lo splendido fraseggio tra la delicatezza vocale di Barbara e i morbidissimi tappeti sonori disegnati dalla musica: un dialogo continuo che chiama in causa anche l'ambiente come componente aggiuntivo della band. L'immaginazione vola in territori sconfinati e selvaggi, come in
Marigold o nella suggestiva
Neon lights.
Il folk si mescola ad una dolcezza dei suoni e del cantato in inglese, rimanda per certi versi ad una dimensione onirica. Un sogno che vorremmo non finisse (come
Spoon river ) mai e che al suo epilogo ci fa risvegliare ristorati. Un esordio folgorante che piacerà a molti, dai fan dei Sigur Ròs o di Bjork a quanti desiderano a wonderful soundtrack for making love. Roberto Conti
the shady - If you like *** Beautiful, sunny and very beat this ep of the shady band Novara. It seems to go back to the sounds of the years when the Fab Four depopulation in the world. My favorite piece is
If you like, which also gives the ep, with the refrain that enters your head immediately. Jerry and Andrea Mantovani
Quaglia coming from a Beatles tribute band have mastered the most typical sounds of the British quartet. The first song made me think of the first Fab Four as well as
And I do not say that. The texts simple and direct link to the very cool 60's: The theme of the course is to master. Even guitar
speaking, this work is performed and produced with great care, we just have to wait maybe a whole album of I Loschi to dream that he returned again in Italy that he did dance beat our parents!

My own rush - Italian Dream *** After more than a taste of their musical potential, the Mor finally arrive on the first album proper,
Italian Dream. It is a composite disc, where the band is removed more Novara satisfaction of telling their own on many issues such as social vulnerability, the work of parliamentary privileges, the arrival of so-called groupies ...
This is an album all too rich and multifaceted, which captures various anime and a genre that is anything but unique. The first part of the disc, more "busy" however, is quite heavy and a bit 'boring: the intro
I tried looking into it but I preferred to stay out is avoidable. The second track
Italian Dream, which gives the title track, has little guitar arrangements of original and inappropriately flavored hard rock, same thing for
Son of my time where even the vocals could be better. Evitabilissime sampled phrases, also known characters (from the Commendatore Sgarbi "Zampetti") displayed here and there throughout the disc. After the mourners pass notes to the merits: the entire disk is filled with ironic that a film about the band gives to not take itself too seriously and to play for the fun of it, with the right awareness, and not so much as to intercept a target audiences.
The second part of the album, punk and more easy-going, leave much preferred, with a sequence
One Life to Mr / Song of spite / Dad is calling out with a shot enviable. I think this is the direction in which the band is able to better express their potential, with sound more enjoyable and danceable. Also interesting
Milan by night and Sweet Polly, less
Sixteen (Miss Backstage) where you could find other words to tell the story of many young girls eager to swallow full of the musicians. Roberto Conti
