Inigo de Amescua for El Mundo

I wrote an overview about Hip Hop, with a special focus in Spain, for El Mundo’s special information series titled El Camino de la Libertad (Freedom Road). It appears on the issue dedicated to year  2007 and you can get a glimpse of it here.

Ok, the guy has an impossible name to pronounce, and I have tried it, I swear… but his music is fantastic: Bregovic, Beirut… He sings sometimes in English, sometimes in Polish great songs that you can find at his myspace. Give him a try is so fun, perfect for a summer day like… like today!

The Car Is On Fire (from Warsaw) have released a new album called “Ombarrops!” with a single and video that is funny and highly danceable… and involves cosmonaut suits… I knew from some time ago because my favourite polish girl bought me their first record named after them, The Car Is On Fire. The trio took their name from the song F#A#~ by Godspeed You Back Emperor.

Rotofobia

The first chapter about cool music from Poland that I (European westernite) am discovering during my days in the East is about Rotofobia, a band from Warsaw. Garage-kraut-psychedelic rock to the very heart of darkness.
Let’s forget about England and USA for a while.

This are just a bunch of songs I have been listening a lot to these days, hope you like them:

1. Bill Callahan – All thoughts are prey to some beast  (this one goes specially for Pepo M.)
2. Bob Dylan – It’s all good
3.  Ayo – Help Is Coming
4. Ramblin’ Jack Elliott – Rambler’s blues
5. Instituto Mexicano del Sonido – Sinfonia Agridulce
6. Lidia Damunt – Perdoname
7. Connor Oberst – Roosevelt room
8. The Charlatans (USA) – Codeine Blues
9. Ben Kweller – Wantin’ her again
1o. Bandini – Happy to be me
11. Depeche Mode – Wrong
12. Beirut – Venice
13. William Elliott Whitmore -  Old devils
14. M Ward – Never had nobody like you
15. The Delmore Brothers – Used Car Blues
16. Naomi Shelton and The Gospel Queens – What have you done?
