I enjoyed her story.  She did it again.

If you are not familiar with the gorgeous, bootylicious, dazzling individual nicely polarized above…

You might Trick her once, but she Caught your cheating ass out there , in the meantime she brings back all the boys to the yard, providing them with that good stuff, while  she is living the life of a Millionaire , because at the end, she got the money. You might Keep it down, caus word is she she can be Bossy, but atleast she got the balls to bring it to you Accappella, Blindfolded and in Public if necessary.

Yes, music from a Bonsai… First I tought WT…!  A bonsai that produces music? impossible… 

But this is what Diego Stocco did:

I always liked bonsai trees, and I was curious to try the approach I used for “Music from a Tree” on a smaller scale, so I bought a bonsai and recorded this little experimental piece.

To determine the key I used the lowest note I could play and recorded the rest around it. 

Besides playing the leaves, I used bows of different sizes, a piano hammer and a paint brush.
As far as microphones I used my Røde NT6, a customized stethoscope and tiny MEAS piezo transducers.

I played all the sounds and rhythms only with the bonsai, I didn’t use any synthesizer or samplers to create or modify the sounds. I hope you’ll like it.

At this link you can see some pictures with more detailed descriptions.

What a moment…

DANAY / Danay’s interview

This is what Gilles say about her:
A remarkable new voice whom I met whilst interviewing artists for my BBC Radio 1 documentary. She played me some of her original songs and I immediately knew that she had to take part in this project. Lagrimas de
Soledad was the song from her demo’s that I loved the most and it is on this
where her work with Roberto is the most magical moment of the album.

CD 1 – Lagrimas de soledad (No existen palabras) / Lagrimas de soledad

Thanks to Krista

Finally he is coming.   I discovered Doom 8 years ago and really enjoy listening his music.  He catched my moment several times.

He s coming to Belgium too.  Alex Deforce from On Point Tv made the artwork for the show in Brussels.

Who is Alex Deforce? 

He is a friend , an artist, a blogger, a dj,  …

A description of himself , taken from his Myspace page:

a.k.a. =lloyd= pointdexter, holdin’ it down at www.on-point.be

Filling my days with drawing, interviewing, dj’ing, reading, promoting (co-organised Locoflows Festival in 2005) and perfectioning my coffeetechniques (mind you, there’s different methods to a style!)

An unhealthy coffee addiction resulting in periods of insomnia, which in time combined with an uncompromising just-let-me-do-my-thing attitude gave birth to a trademark style.

Faces marked by the tension of modern day life, balancing on the tipping point between the grime of the city and the frivolous facade of metropolis.
Warm in their darkness, refined in their dirtiness.

We looooove Alex and his art! And the ‘On Point’  moments …

Oh and don’t forget to check his artwork!

As I am Berber too, we have the same roots, her song touched my in different ways.

Born in Khouribgha (Morocco), Touareg and Berber origin, Hindi Zahra strikes a vote without borders. Her music sounds like ancient blues, original jazz with some vibration from the Middle East, where she speaks about love, self-assertion, the world and things that inspire her. Born into a family of Berber artists , the Oudaden group  is one of the most famous of them. Her mother and uncles introduced her the traditional Gnawa music, the folk of Dylan, Marley’s reggae and the ancient rhythms and melodies of the finest Egyptian Directory. Self-taught musician, songwriter, Hindi is reflected in the plurality. The Wire describes her as the brainchild of Django Reinhardt and Billie Holiday. she occurred in the first part of Anis at Olympia, Oxmo Puccino at La Cigale where she participated in Bose Blue Note Jazz festival …

 Her song “Beautiful Tango” is a revelation—simple yet sophisticated, sparse yet emotive. It’s fresh even while it reverberates with history.  This style continues in “Oursoul” and “Try.” A touch of hip-hop and soul influence, retaining the simple, downbeat understatement of her other songs while adding an almost ethereal quality.  Somewhere between her Moroccan roots and her life in Paris, singer-songwriter Hindi Zahra lost track of her many musical influences: the result is a mesmerizing elemental folk, a desert blues with african/american music.

Don’t forget to check her website or myspace.

We loooooove Hindi Zahra. 

Enjoy this moment!
