(I am) So so modern

Today I went to the best gig of the year (so far): S O S O M O D E R N.

There are still many people who like keybords (meaning synthesizer), but to make noise. There are also people who like to make interesting and impressive music, but without loosing the audience and not afraid of giving it an artistic touch and a splash of youth.

And when you see three people bending on their keybords, each one making a different (complementary) 'noise' makes difficult to understand how Kraftwerk could do more or less something like that and looking like 4 gentlemen with just a few drops of sweat.

Its good to play for fun and it doesn't mean that you don't have to put a lot of effort in it... you can also wear funny costumes and be each one in different colour and shape.

music is what you take from it... it is also what you give to it.

"We are are a four-person collective interested creating a more fun and meaningful future through performance and music. By performance we mean the reciprocal acts of seeing and being seen, and by music we mean the ability to show solidarity around creative aural pleasure. Remember the campfire? Hope you do, cos thats what music means to us. A platform for sharing ideas, stories and gathering. But also a stage for challenges, dialog and what not.Much Love, So So Modern".

Great indoors...

Nada melhor do que depois de um dia cheio de tarefas, esperancas e responsabilidades poder olhar a bagunca do meu quarto, trocar um poster da parede e escutar John Mayer.

As vezes musicas/artistas esquecidos aparecem do nada na nossa cabeca. Eu fiquei tentando lembrar das letras, os temas, a capa do disco... queria chegar em casa, colocar o cd e clarear as lembrancas.

E como toda lembranca que se preze, tudo volta num segundo: as noites no computador, os artigos para a revista autor, as manhas dentro do onibus indo para o trabalho... epoca em que eu soh esperava setembro chegar.

John Mayer seems more than appropriated and in the deep of my heart, I wish that past relaxing/waiting feeling is today a message for my present.

And find what you are here for"

... take me there

It's too much, too bright, too powerful.
