Probably the best was a revival from The Strokes, Morissey, David Bowie, Beck and the discover of Stars, Devendra Banhart, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, MGMT, The Kooks, Ben Folds.
I like a lot of things, like everybody, but I don’t have any religion. I looked for a way in the past, a true way, my way. Maybe I found it, maybe I found it about two years ago, after a bad period. Only now I realize it: it’s Indie, Indie way. It’s a taste, I call it the Indie taste.
It started with Indie music, little production, raw sounds, no middle-man:
Indie does not mean underground, don’t mean few fans, Indie mean a way to do it and it’s stunning his beauty.
It’s a taste in that beauty, it’s a nous.
So stop words and let me listen one masterpiece of indie-lo-fi In the Aeroplane Over the Sea from Neutral Milk Hotel
When I was young I entertain myself mixing sample and create some music.Here you can find the tracklist of my first and only cd. Maybe I was too young: between 14 and 17. Title is 426C7565 426974 and it is the ASCII code for “blue bit”. If you want to listen me this is my page on last.fm.
