b. dylan

Well, there is nothing i can say about bob dylan that you dont know. Here, a pic I actually love. Dylan smokes ignoring the atention of his anxious fans. His spirit reflected on a perfect capture.
Now I choose one of my favourites songs by Bob Dylan. I hope you like it!

what does indie mean?

That is the question that a reader makes to Andrés Calamaro in his section of the Rolling Stone (number 142, august of 2011) magazine: doctor rock. he replies the following text:

"The genre should be part of a history of gestures of noise, electroglam and elegant indifference. However, what today is known as indie doesnt fit to the hermetic commandments of the stuff we can tag as independent. [...] Well, the new wave doesnt wears only black (as we saw in the sad 90's, gold times of british indie). Another difference is a less commintment with the genre, which allows to have a lot of different "sub-genres" of indie."

Well, that is what Andrés Calamaro understands of the term "indie". I just want to give you a graphic description of indie music, so here you have some of my favourtie bands and songs:
I stand corrected, by Vampire Weekend
Shut up and let me Go, by The Ting Tings
The modern age, by the strokes

chill it out.

sanxenxo is a small city in Galicia. It has a population of 16.000 people, which reaches the hundred thousands in summer. I must admit that it is really cool.

time is nothing but a lie.

Russian Red (aka Lourdes Hernandez) is a spanish singer who sings that style that's used to be called indie. She has 2 albums: "I love Your Glasses" and "Fuerteventura". The second one was released just months ago and, in my opinion, is her best job: the songs sound familiar and fresh at the same time. Here I leave a pic I took last saturday, she was perfect
.

The song is called "the memory is cruel", from hes lastest cd: "Fuerteventura"
