Lastfm.com becomes interesting…

07 28th, 2007 / Tags: , ,

I have added a lastfm widget to my left sidebar, so now you can check the music I usually listen to.

If you don’t know http://www.lastfm.com/, just jump into it and begin enjoying (they don’t pay me for the promotion!! hehehe). Lastfm is a place where you can listen music. You search for an artist, or tag, and then you get a customized radio station that only plays songs that match with your searching criteria.

Some months ago listening to lastfm was quite poor, as they didn’t have a lot of dark music available. I tried searching for “Hocico” (begining with the big ones), and I just got about 10 songs. But as my colleagues went on listening to it everyday, I tried from time to time again, and some weeks ago, looking for Straftanz info, I found their profile in lastfm. It was a great surprise, as the song I was looking for was listed there, but I couldn’t listen to it. I didn’t understand why, and finally I found them in myspace.com.

Yestayday mi colleagues where talking about lastfm, and I told them my attempts to listen to music without success. They gave me the answer: if you download the lastfm.com software, you get a programme that is allways runing, and if you want, it takes the info from your music player to include it to the stats in lastfm. So you can get a general overview of the music you listen from your computer and from lastfm radios.

So there you have my profile in lastfm now, full of tracks I usually listen at home. And here you have mi new widget, taking the images of my top CDs… Give lastfm a try!!

UnterArt - Noise & Grace

07 17th, 2007 / Tags: , , , , , , ,

Today I want to write about a great band. I knew about UnterArt some moths ago, through their myspace. I listened to the first song in their player, and the power of their music made me listen the other three songs. I had to look for some mp3…

I listened to their CD hundreds of times, and everytime I still listen it I think their music is better. Some songs are so deep… as ‘Aska’… and other are so industrial as ‘Hirntod’… Noise & Grace is a perfect combination of sounds through a well planned path of songs.

Last month I had the opportunity to go to a concert of them, in the Spktro Festival, which was made at my hometown, Vitoria. And it was great. I was excited by the idea of being in such a Festival (Aesthetic Perfection, UnterArt, RabiaSorda, Heimataerde and Grendel), as in Spain is not very usual to have these kind of events.

UnterArt - Noise & GraceUnterArt was great, so great that I bought the CD at the end of the concert. I allways try to buy the music that I really like. It’s almost impossible to buy everything I want to listen, but I allways try to support bands I really like buying their music or merchandising, and going to their concerts. When I was buying UnterArt CD, Thomas Stein (one of them) appeared, and I told him I liked their concert a lot. I also confessed him that I had downloaded their CD from the internet, but I told him the difficulties we have to buy this kind of music in the mayority of the citys of Spain, and explained my reasons for buying the CD. It was a really nice night, as I was able to talk with him about the difficulties of making some work for this scene. We all have to work in our spare time, and we allways know that we are not going to get well paid for it unless we are really good and really famous.

So, I recommend you listen to UnterArt, and if you are able to do it, buy their CD (from Out of Line). It’s a good investment, as you’re gonna listen to it hundreds of times!!!
