O. .. THE SPELL OF 'IMAGES OF CONTEMPLATION': from Romanticism to the Pop Art * ...* Blow ups

* Discovering young filmmakers: ANDREW SANZ.

** Isabella Rosellini, multi-faceted ..

The other day I was lucky to watch this film at work: "Amor flat / Flat love of Andres Sanz, and it was an beautiful. Delicate, clean, sober, well shot and a story with a strong American style, especially references, to Pop Art style USA designation of origin and that special summer almost permanently .. idiosyncrasies, the flatness, simplicity and abundance of color as a sign of identity of the most iconographic images, with that strange ingenuity, or thin line between adult and child, and that is precisely the key to tell the story of this man, obsessed since childhood with planar imaging .... Playing with the line, with representation, with the plane, in space, with the dimension.

How 2D characters have struggled to be part of the 3D world to be free of the flesh, feeling things ... stories that had to do with living between two worlds, has always given good fruit, curious and convoluted stories, a lot of personality. Geppetto Pinocchio created, a wooden doll, which then became a child, like the others, In "Pleasantville" characters in B & W discovered the 'drive' the color ... ; And in other cases, cartoon characters have cameos and lived, as if by magic, in the real world in 3D.

This is the story of a man convinced that the world is flat who falls for the wife of a table. Goes to the museum, observing, perceiving it, fantasize ...

The plot has a relationship so closely with a certain image that being (or not) a tribute to inline Hitchcock, it seems impossible that the 'format scene' does not remember, instantly at the elegant and mysterious woman played by Kim Novack in "Vertigo (from the dead)" also is absorbed, rapt, as the world trapped inside a painting in a museum. Picture- McGuffin will reveal clues and reveal the true identity of this woman. And is that personal fetishes, the things you feel special attachment and devotion are not easily uncovered, as a blond hair dyed black to hide his past, are things that do not change, that truly reveal. What are you looking for the protagonist, obsessed with this woman, almost like the man of "La Jetée" by the image of his childhood-in this plot of spirals in which she, in turn, is magnetized as overshadowed by that picture, by mistero, for its power to create a double of herself, a reincarnation of a character .. And it's true: See pictures addiction, particularly those with a special magnetism that seems to whisper, they talk, they had an intrinsic history, a living image behind, inside. Give her responsible and complicit in the secret 'blow up' . and that is part of man's obsession "Flat love" that, like any story that we grow (and her character) is something that moves, and a unique sense of humor and a historic, which the choice of aesthetics, is loaded with charm.

By the way, 'made the presentations', then you can see the short film

But not only that: added value and helps to consolidate that sobriety, and narrative style, which initially americanoa commented, the unmistakable voice of the narrator, neither more nor less than Isabella Rosellini. To me she will always be 50% of that delicious tandem / luck with marriage Stuart Staples (Tindersticks), or that strange character, almost Machiavellian in the surrealism of Guy Naddin, of "The Saddest song in the world. " But also, Isabella has been going, the smart way that is genetically-characterized today, not only because he chaired the jury of the Berlinale recently, opening his speech with these words: "I the daughter of Roberto Rossellini and Ingrid Bergman ...". And, although we all know, we must not forget. But also, she is the author of a wonderful experiment: "Greeen porn , recommendation of my ring (mersi!!) And to me known to glory. A proposed small informative sketches she herself, in addition to writing and co-direct-stars, characterized and behaving like one of those strange animals to make them known to children. So powerful, so visual, so plastic, with its touches Gondry, so theatrical, with the magic that seemed that the cinema had lost .. That not only consolidates his status as an actress, but his astonishing creativity. Here is one of the chapters, I recommend looking at all, "cool.

* Returning to

"Flat love": Audience Award and the Award for Best Short Film Festival in New York, the 3D city par excellence scene of this curious story, and the Coney Island Film Festival Brooklyn , among numerous awards, has made me want to fuck with its director, Andres Sanz for its maturity of style, so film. We will have to keep track of other formed probably in love with NY, as Simiani Leon.

And, returning to the speech ... in reality this the 'contemplation' is not free, nor come out of nowhere. Has, in fact, at least that's my theory, a tradition, Romanticism, whose image illuminating, iconic, that best reflects his spirit is "Shipwreck" of Friedrich, a wreck inside (soul) and outside (of contemplation and shudder at the landscape). And it is to watch the sea, raging or in quiet, in its scale and immensity, produces nostalgia, awakens memories, y remueve algo dentro, algo sublime. Históricamente, los poetas, músicos y pintores, llamados 'los románticos', eran excluidos y juzgados por " exceso de bilis negra ", entendiendo que la nostalgia era un acto negativo... En la contemporaneidad, los cuadros U OTROS DISPOSITIVOS como superficies de representación a los que cargar de nostalgia e información ,captando toda la atención -en lugar del tema/motivo en vivo- han generado un hermosísimo universo de imágenes, de seres pasmados ante ellas, de nuevas relaciones sujeto/paisaje, frames en los que parece que todo esté parado. Me viene a la cabeza sin duda Chris Marker y, en cierta manera, Antonioni and Kim-Ki Duk .. But not only in cinema, especially European contemporary photography has also contributed to 'contemplation', which represent, reinterpret and reconstruct these models and renamed the references.

Pan's flute, musical instrument known in most of the world, America has unique characteristics and has a strong preference among originating from the time Columbus.

Is very large variety of shapes and characters with the Pan flute is in America, and many other Aboriginal peoples that conserve cultural hierarchy among its most prized assets.

Pan's flute also has many other names: ayarichic, pfucu, fusarium, Ark., anger, sanja, underworld, Taica hirpa, chiru, hauyrapuhura, molti, Institute, etc., Of Indian origin. There are many different species of Pan flutes First, the classic syrinx: a row of coverings, secondly, the double row. In this case, the tubes can be opened down, may be closed, or a row of tubes open and a closed tube. The typical SICU consists of two rows of closed tubes, the second of which is half the size, and are made of cane.

The repertoire of these "bands" includes music of different character, and is positively artistic.

Loudness sicus a whole is original and beautiful. The larger tube blow lose part that rubs its edges, and the remaining air sounds vaguely eighth tubing means sharp, but still slip and escape, enveloping all in a soft hissing sound.

Many men-dozen or more-time blowing a double tubes, draw a wide and dense sound, rich in wind, more rumor that sound, but not weak, but powerful, shuddering, as the voice of the sea. And will the thrill, winged, in the middle.

OF JIMMY JUMP * cameo * A Los Goya PHILIPPE PETIT: "Man on Wire" / Performances politically incorrect: provocation or Heroism ..?

All we saw last Sunday the Gala Goya remember we were left with their awkward, off-the- record, something alien to the gala, this:

doubt for a second if it was part of the login script on stage, moments before delivering the award for Best Actor, which would end up with Bardem, Jimmy Jump, alias' the Springer / the jumper. " A stunning Mercedes Sampietro, Lola Dueñas, Pilar López de Ayala , in charge of announcing, Jimmy watched in bewilderment how you put a hat on Mr. Goya, stood the statue, which did not belong, and is dedicated " All jumpers ", ie your fellow (strange) profession ... security until someone ran up and invited him to leave the stage. Before a general booing. Impolite A farewell to a grand entrance.

True, Jimmy managed to break the protocol and with it the magic and the course of the show on its peak, diverting attention from those who were its protagonists: De la Torre , Tosar and Bardem - Reynolds absent-screen, waiting candidates. And this seemed to bother much too tell myself to be a cameo harmless, the comment did not deserve sentencing and discredited that he dedicated Andreu Buenafuente (best presenter and host of the show in its history, which just celebrated its Silver Wedding), who referred to him as 'the idiot' ... Among other things because somehow Jimmy is also an actor, an actor, single scene: the climax . Prepare a character posing as a guest for one of the staff of the organization, dressed for the occasion, according to the rule, acting normally until .. LIGHTS, CAMERA AND ACTION!! erupts and disrupts a public ceremony, broadcast live, usually with large audiences, with no possibility of retreat. That is their modus operandi and probably the best definition of his work "contingency operator." Himself.

himself Jimmy states to carry out its objectives, breaking the security protocols, etc.. the worst nightmare of the American psychosis (hopefully not even think about ever trying to sneak into the Gala the Oscars .. or put you on the blacklist, which already have Polansky) it causes a huge adrenaline and emotion, a personal catharsis with the intention of making people laugh, which is not a desire to provoke.

The fact is that Goya was not a shred of grace to anyone. Nor probably in the other acts - Teatro Real, Eurovision ..-. Personally I see something heroic, agitator, rebel, those little antics of 'Springer', of which we are so lacking that .. are welcome! to get us out of the routine. In addition, n everything has an explanation or a reason. And we must never lose the humor.

So, trying to understand his position, where the creative value, performance, the work in progress ... I immediately comes to mind another name that has yet many more advantages than he, more cache, less controversy, but which actually share the need, almost vocational, to do things by breaking the rules (without being criminal but the thin line (i) legality ...): Philippe Petit .

Famous French tightrope walker who in 1974 crossed a cable 400 meters a Twin Tower to another, going down in history with this intervention, which has called 'the artistic crime of the century XX '. This gives an added value, positive thinking today, after the 11S , the damage caused by the collapse of World Trade Center in the universe / American spirit as it is considered icon and symbol of their culture and power, irreparable damage, broken sleep, threat real, a Phoenix not rise from the ashes ...

"Man on wire" ( James Marsh, 2008) is the documentary that picks up the story: how he prepared this operation and what impact it had on Philippe and those who helped him to realize his dream.

Portrait of an eternal Peter Pan with "good height, obsessed with space and architecture, with the ability to interact with it. Self-taught as a child saw in a magazine that was being built which would be the tallest towers in the world and not the idea never got off the head. A story about friendship, trust (and distrust), success (and failure), achievement, ideals and models ... Narration
key melodramatic and the progression / plot of a suspense film of the year 70 (type "All the President's Men" ), with interviews with Philippe and charismatic that he decided to start with adventure, interspersed with scenes reconstruction, very close, so far from docudrama, with quite similar seems reasonable, really, who are themselves in the 70 ... How all that compensates in any price appreciation in the custody or under the prospect of death, but with the power to thrill many people. In "Man on wire" everything is hanging in the balance-never better, "anything can go wrong.

This is the story of how in the end everything goes well. Without moralizing or end ' made in H' , but with that tremendous void that must stop having concluded the big goal. Following the success of the Twin Towers , all these people you trust, so its protagonists, distance themselves from him, as if something had been lost, which calls for a discussion on the strength of teamwork, common interests, ownership, authorship, the life stages that accompany or mark certain moments / milestones , etc.

Exciting "Man on wire" : I think he saw something that excited me so much since I saw made 20years, "The Neverending Story" , or make 10, that documentary you see how the team is committed Tarkovsky, off budget and shooting schedule, to repeat the scene of the burning house in "Nostalgia" , by mistake, has not been recorded. A story about how, when one truly believes in something, is capable of doing.

That reminded me of another operator popi touched by his rod, his faith: Justo Gallego Muñoz, who, under all odds, took something disproportionate and exorbitant: to build a cathedral with his own hands, and there is (in Mejorada del Campo) come true, but probably this is an unfinished dream, an impossible over time, David and Golliat , but who have devoted as much time.

However, returning the comparison ... -Philippe Petit who had the opportunity to see here, will be 3 years in La noche en Blanco, I urge cruising. Cervantes the Círculo de Bellas Artes - has much more to the limit and gives free rein to this extreme experience, the adventure, which not only endangers his life, but probably that of others, not to mention the real possibility that 'magic image' may twist and cause a much more bleak and devastating in people who contemplate if he fell, right there. Among other things, be public art. And its possible native equivalent: Jimmy Jump, that probably has no intention or artistic ambition, remains in the first step but is in the same way-and do something unexpected cameo, which in any case is the result of a 'making false' without or endanger himself or anyone else .. So .. why all the fuss!?

To me, indeed all, I find hilarious, especially those that are embodied in characters such peformers agitators, such as masquerading as Mario Bross and is throwing banana-haha! - Or masquerading as PCMan and libraries or supermarkets entering the fantasmillas pursued ...

*

conclude by saying that what I find truly Philippe and Jimmy share the obsession record of experience and that this, in fact, only be achieved by involving the media. That in the 70s was an essential part of the performance-video-and now live in a consumer culture so diverse and it is almost a hero who manages to take ownership to another to get on the cover.

Finally, it is difficult to know if this kindof interventions are generous or selfish acts.

AND YOU ... 'OF WHO YOU ARE'? PHILIPPE PETIT OR JIMMY JUMP??

'BEHIND THE SCENES', 14 actors acting .. TO ACT = (or not to act) / ABOUT EGOS, characters, myths, actors, 2010 .. SPECIAL

That an actor can bring life to a character is a very interesting point, that to interpret a variety of methods have been proposed throughout history shows that it is not easy ; It has traditions going back about the early history of humanity ... means that man has always felt the desire to narrate, to give life to history, to illustrate and honor. Star animal fables, for the rest of the order of things in the layers of metaphor, the actor.

That simply, cinema, and with it their genres, styles, everything, would not exist without the actors is never something that should sometimes stop thinking. Perhaps always envied the movie and never have I ever feel envy the theater is the loneliness of the actor on stage, the stage : is there an actor really acts, but difficult crosses the thin line that separates these two areas that are the reality and fiction , aware and conscious of his own body and into character.

I chose 4 of those moments that do not belong to anything or anyone other than the performer and that key moment, only for you, intimate, intrinsic: when you come in character. As a silkworm butterfly is made. As if someone had fortunately been there to record it and now we can see these extracts from reality, backstage , almost clubhouse of work in progress ... small-large tributes to 14 players. Gestures, attitudes that make direct reference to those who have been their roles, actors or other side when necessary, this past year.

It's nice to do something like "14 actors acting" because, after all, the actor, the alter ego egocentric par excellence, should feel bad, really small when the nominees do not hear his name. Because merit, personal search, the levels of demand, the work behind, documentation, fieldwork, perhaps what is most like this, you are going on strike, do not see neither the jury nor the public. This gearing up for that shared the honors: the gala Oscars or Academy Awards in its 83 edition, said soon (the show will be the next February 27) ... The die is cast, yes, but this peculiar profession and those who have incarnated in this shipment are not filmmaking can or should reduce to that moment of glory at the American dream made in Hollywood . Is much more inner world, something that beats, at least for those who honor and strengthen the profession.

And, as stated Victoria Abril " The actor is the counsel of his character " is true: must believe in it, squeeze it, namely to build it, give it life. Some are more appealing, others daily, clinging to the wall, all interpreted in the actor's resource capacity.

says Vincent Cassel the only track that has received as a director's actor ' be good '

Sometimes the actor feels lost, others decide to take the initiative to rein in the runaway horse, propose things, change dialogue, even something that causes some effect on 'TO ACT' (that is, for example, small, tight, uncomfortable clothes, that is always the same, the their own, etc). The actor is reached sometimes get so into character, especially in the case of biopics / biographies, they just almost overlapping with it.

could have plenty of anecdotes in this regard ...

course talking about the word 'candidate' (a fame, good roles) ... I was impressed with the story of how he reacted Sal Mineo there in 1956, nominated the Best Supporting Actor by "Rebel Without a Cause" . She was just 17 years and was close to take the statuette. I was so convinced that it would take the prize, says the legend, he prepared a great feast upon, in style, were the golden days of cinema and the Oscars that year rose to announce another name, that of Jack Lemmon more specifically, the actor who had the dream that he had built in his head for him. The actor in evidence in the humiliation of his own expectation, in the eyes of all, his distress and disappointment. In fact, later, never entrains too well his career .. Charismatic, controversial reading it deserves a review. Sure. Mineo always Plato and Plato James will always be in love ..

Being an actor must be very inconsistent ..

Well, here's "BEHIND THE SCENES" , a marvel:

... a delicate Natalie Portman this striptease broken, empty and lonely ... with that kind of put off, seemingly simple, a kind of Gilda listless , to faint a "Put the blame on me" distorted, mute, broken by the black swan that kills (Brand has created a buzz for me especially around the issue dance).

... an elegant Vincent Cassel , which resembles a Gene Kelly left with is a musical and elegance, this naturally, if I suggested it might pick up that legacy and give long life ..;

... a Javier Bardem as the super-actor, in his alter ego more visceral, powerful, Latin and violent. And, no doubt, Bardem is a bomb at the cutting edge, which expects a promising international career (hopefully you know digest). And every time I think more about how much he deserves to do theater, in fact interpret Stanley, one of the great characters of the unforgettable heavyweights "A Streetcar Called Desire" / "A Streetcar Named Desire , of Tennessee Williams and Elia Kazan shot and became one of the best films of all time (coming in Theatre English ). And is that a good actor you have to see live and up close.

... And finally, which is my favorite scene of the series: James Franco , in a wonderful flat trickster lacaaniano with a striking resemblance in the quality of the face, the strange tenderness, one of the great enfants terrible film : James Dean -which was released just playing. And though not intended as a tribute to the wonderful "Rebel without case" / Rebel Without a Cause reminds me tremendously in that scene the beginning, when at the police station, theater state pure.

And up to 14 performances, beautiful project, I recommend you see in its entirety, not just by being charged an enormous halo, which also contributes, no doubt, in the sobriety of the mise-em-scene , Owen Pallet , instrumental genius, shot by Solve Sundsbo , but because it runs these "platitudes" or iconic moments of cinema, with an ease and brimming with elegance. Beautiful tribute to the cinema: in B & N , how could it be otherwise. In the end, I missed something along that line.

He opened a little issue ..

should not to overlook something very important is that the more alone and helpless seem to be more "bed" has been prepared. There was a Gepetto before that Pinocchio, the wooden puppet , behave and become a child of flesh and blood ... It is no coincidence that many of the actresses fetish of some directors have been the women beyond the screen, in real life, as a matter of wonder, but above all, because they rely heavily on them. A principal-a must, rather, it pays to have an actor / actress of these characteristics. As a dentist we all trust, the principal actor also has his confidence. Are for large and consolidated these couples, as Bergman / Ullman and R owlands / .. Cassavetes, and the only other tandems professionals such as Jean Pierre Leaud & François Truffaut , or brethren. Dardenne & Jérémie Renier , actors who have watched it grow from the hand of those directors fraternal.

That Liv Ullman is a great actress, who has managed to shine on screen countless times, as anyone close to the world of representation dare, even for a moment, to doubt his boundless talent, is partly to do with the depth of the scenes, with those almost eternal long close-ups of Bergman giving you, he was given the opportunity, a chance to break the very soul of the character, you get to feel (or pretend to feel but if you do in a real and sincere end empathizing , making it real) that something so painful or loss of dignity, their self-esteem, as though he could not recover. Is clear: I mean that plane mirror "Cries and Whispers " great Bergman , which goes from beautiful to ugly seconds, an absolute wonder.

On the other hand, are so many scenes in which Geena Rowlands has eaten screen with snacks for a long time I thought it was the best actress, the most dedicated, energetic, passionate, an 'animal stage' with all the letters that Juliette Binoche should keep in mind. How sad to see her in squalid papers ... when grazed glory (and not watered down and sweetened for Hollywood, but the circuit of film / theater more risky). Especially since, as a great actress, she played a star in crisis "Opening night" which is to loop the loop, as Petra in "The Bitter Tears .. ( Fassbinder , etc.). reflect on the actor in the crisis, vulnerability, their lack of action, is very beautiful .. By the way, Pedro Almodóvar shamelessly copied this script "All About My Mother " and never has publicly acknowledged, something that cries out to heaven and I think a total lack of respect for the classic film that one can honor, to be even by the greats.

is a pity that the film not author is so little was devoted to the actor, who has so little depth to the character .. An actor can not shine if you do not let him. It's a shame that movies are just the plot, theme, a series of scenes that are put to one side, in each, some, a ' quelque rights and ', a detail, a gesture that he owned.

Blog 3rd Anniversary: \u200b\u200bDEAD COMBO "Lusitania Playboys * (I paid) Tribute to Portugal *

I am delighted to have kept as a safe place and take this "special occasion" to bring to light something that is for me so special that it would keep one, something that is so good, so sublime, so solemn .. a blog can kill it.

The first thing that I like so much DEAD COMBO is because created to honor . The story, brief but intense how does this band is: Tó Trips and Pedro V. Gonçalves , alfazinhas (lisboteas), barely known back together for a concert, Howe Gelb specifically ; - Tó actually think Peter has a car and asked "boleia" (take you) at the end just walking, road Bairro Alto , to take the last - . and connect together so they decide to play in tribute to the genius of the Portuguese guitar: Carlos Paredes . Indeed his first work is that collaboration "perpetual Movement, music of Carlos Paredes" , a collective tribute album christened beautiful theme with the most swift and quick score - even my beloved " Tico tico ", which is saying, and it's Brazilian - played by the guitar with more soul and more voice of all Portuguese history: the wonderful and unforgettable Paredes, who spent several names in the scene lusa their popies readings and covers , dedicated work to which a documentary Edgar Pêra ( I've always been wanting to see).

*

In 2007, some already established in small venues circuit, they supported a DEAD COMBO Howe Gelb , who musically were joined that day, again in Lisbon, and appeared to be closed to square the circle . Howe is pleased with the sound of the band border, linking such a strong tradition and rooted as the sounds of fado spaghetti western; and surplus is known the passion of former Calexico by flamenco-in fact, it takes time letting "spread" American- , with which the fado Share hearth and, above all, they are able to stir something up inside (when it touches and the listener) and find your own beat : root .. Fado claim here and you aconsejaos brindéis a chance in this style, a Pandora's box that contains some of the /-os soloists and, of course, most brilliant guitarists of all time.

So , back to the root of the post, without further ado, here's a DEAD COMBO and why the label western / fado with which are sometimes set is small and weak, how these two types have become two voices and two souls of the Portuguese guitar, a synthesis of Portuguese .. an absolute wonder. Here are Tó and Pedro .. the framers of the Fado contemporanización , which within experimental ended up being authentically Portuguese .

This "Electric cadent" the more mature, elegant and, above all, more synthetic in my opinion, belongs to his third studio album " Lusitânia Playboys (the fourth of his discography, which includes a live, recorded at Hot Clube of Lisbon, which I'm keeping track on vinyl) and I shudder with the same intensity each of the 40 times I've since heard in recent days. headphones Therapy office , with which the other day, for a moment of truth would get up and send all prá or Caralho , all this for me as absurd, bland gray -of-office life. I thought for a second that grabbed my stuff and eventually, he turned around, and went to the airport and I planted in Lisbon on the next flight with seats, surprise. I went to look for Joana to work or crossing year Ponto Final in Almada and from there called Zepe Cátia & Y.. in the vernacular, not that I do miss eggs but .. I got the clarity of responsibility or, rather, the need to pay the rent and did not go to realize ... No doubt this "fantasy lusa" fifth empire * included, was the peak / peak height of one of my cycles of nostalgia with which I have since then fighting.

And to hear the chords of the DEAD COMBO , especially those of this for me ode to Lisbon "Electric cadent" -recognized immediately that the album cover is Casa do Alentejo , another of my favorite places - has all the charm and freshness site boarding the E-28 ( or electric or / tram), and display the full path from the Basilica da Estrela , through Santos, Chiado, Alfama and to Graça . Although, curiously, has a "clean" absence of all these living arrangements, customs and manners of those who "Quando nao é a little soul" , previous record, was full ( "QSAEP ", por si lo vuelvo a nombrar) y en este tema haya, únicamente, guitarra, pero los Dead Combo han aprendido mucho y saben cómo darle todos sus matices. Yo consigo ver todo lo que para mí es Lisboa -no sólo la ciudad, que llevo en el recuerdo para siempre- y lo que significa ser portugués en estos 3,4 minutos, todos esos resquicios imborrables de ese deseo de hacer realidad un sueño del pasado, ese complejo sentimiento histórico-ficcinado que es Portugal: Lisbon, "the landscape" (the rest of Portugal), the great Pessoa, black scarf that women, on hips, back Tras-os-Montes . Everything is there, vibrant, can be heard. Sibilant s's, deep discourse, the prophecies and cafés years golinhos ... And that attitude body scene, having: face down, hugging the guitar, playing with rapt attention, an almost inside that, indeed, as the great fado singers. Although he did not have despite their fear and tradition, and sometimes Tó bump, to electrify, as if he did the buzz , revive this subject so full of stories that is already part of the past for lusos ..

DEAD COMBO is a band that all should be proud Luso. Raises also the sublime category training duo . One as prolific and other highly specialized.

Seeing DEAD COMBO live-I was lucky enough to do it twice, in Santiago Alquimista and Bicaense , two of the clubs / local city's most authentic, then with "Quando é a little soul," a disc in my "desert island discography " forever & ever - produces a clear addiction, which is not yet known cure or antidote, nor to have anything else with the same designation of origin: the Saudade , defined as " the melancholy remembrance of a joy away .. . " if the definitions are worth ... if it is not worth this and we stop words (studio version here)

On stage, DEAD COMBO always characterized as cat dick , with an enormous hat, beneath which lurks Tó; and ganstern , a sort of murderer for hire, or Peter. Sobriety of -em-scene mise very consistent with what and how we play is a marvel to see how these two types are given the replica sober, more in this dark road by Daniel Neves, this video-ao-vivo wonderful, how they get in this eternal crescendo and descending devastating and sublime. It seems impossible that there is no solo, no one sings, it is full of voice. This time of "Lusitânia Playboys on some issues, for the first time, there is the exception to the duo, plus a time to celebrate special friends in the scenario, because the alchemical formula that have given the failure or is near depletion, the friends also happens to be the Orquestra das Caveira ( Orchestra Skulls )-with excellent musicians, there is excess in LX, especially in jazz tradition, accompanying them on this disc, I do not know if ajazzar magnify some issues, and is certain: it sounds great, but they do not need .. DEAD COMBO n but Daedalus and Icarus are , down to earth and humility, which makes me even more taste in my mouth because there is a Portuguese ego sometimes exorbitant and racing. I take joy in knowing that when I was recently in the Sao Jorge Cinema, one most emblematic sites Culture in Lisbon, beautiful Art Nouveau , they crave of thanks, excited to see the full house. Should impress but I say ..: how could it not be filled?!

Ending this post with a photo rare, very rare to see: DEAD COMBO or Tó eo Pedro stripped of his characters alter-ego on stage, two normal guys who hide in two great musicians who I, without tinted glasses one-shoot-killer one and without the excessive hat to another, I doubt I could recognize. Although I admire deeply. also say that both have parallel projects: Tó as a designer and illustrator, under the nick " Mackintóxico" , Peter has recently participated in the BSO of "Jose and Pilar" , Portuguese history that was self-exiled Nobel Prize for Literature: Saramago.

and comment-on if post had taken effect and held more fan (e) s, which is great news for me, my way out until you can go to Lisbon he deserves time to go (and I ..!!!): I deserve the chance to see them, with this album 5 * Arcos de Valdevez . Portugal, 1 hour from Oporto, on Saturday March 12 in petit comité Sons of Time Festival , a modiquísimo price, reason enough, believe me, to undertake a road trip to know one of the most beautiful areas of the Peninsula and be enchanted, hopelessly, for this great duet and her unforgettable direct.
