los abrazos rotos

here is the father complex, all the antiarchitypes of fathers. a son being gay is cast out from his father, although he is also gay.the lover of this father gets involved with the second father who does not know that he also is a father. so his son also grows up thinking he does not know his father although he spends every day with him.And there is the loved father who is suffering a deadly cancer, the only father being close to an architype - at least he has a daughter who even goes back to being a prostitute to help him.

another story with all the apparent features of almodovar, however is not satisfactory as his old movies.

Grizzly Bear

Grizzly Bear goes down to fun corners of small experimentalization with its 3rd Album Veckatimest. Although, Two Weeks reminds me of a car commercial showing a sporty shiny car gradually going by the cliffs and although it made me check whether the song is used in a car commercial or not, it does have a moving sound with jumping piano chords and contemplating vocals.

The album stands a step ahead of others in adding a bit of crisp electro beats and genre mixtures to it. Definitely makes their music more tasteful..

François and the Atlas Mountains

françois. discovered the "one voice in the noise". the progressive piano melodies supported by Arcade Fire-like rhythms. definitely one to watch for.
