(are you) the one



I feel dizzy and bored with no big reason, except maybe the weather. The weather is shit today, it's dark. Very British.

I feel like hibernating today.

The soundtrack: Nick Cave - Boatman's call

It's a current question "are you the One that I've been waiting for?" We keep asking everytime One comes around and One goes around...

Like i said, i want to hibernate today. i'll be better tomorrow.

Will put my head into some nice wave forms.

And it goes like this...

<3



Down from my... ceiling
Drips great noise.
It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.

Behind these two hills heeere...
There's a pool.

And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel....
I shut my eyes.

Inside their cabin I make sounds
In through the tubes I send this noise.

Behind these two hills heeere...
fall asleep.
And when I flood in green grass of tunnel...
It floods back.

Down from my... ceiling
drips great noise.

It drips on my head through a hole in the roof.

Behind these two hills heeere..
there's a pool.
And when I'm swimming in
through a tunnel....
I shut my eyes.

Stand up
You've got to manage

Self sufficience please!
And get to work

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

You're on your own now
We won't save you
Your rescue squad
Is too eshausted

And if you complain once more
You'll meet an army of me

I LOVE TREES! MAKE TRADE FAIR!

I'm a worried human being.


I have been watching programs about cotton farms in india and clothes factories. The organic/trade fair vs cheaper deals /deaths

In an organic cotton field the workers were happier and healthier.

In the non organic fields, because of perticides, people developed desieses, some were blind, lost an arm of could not walk anymore. Its was very sad to see how the shirts from Pirmark i have at home were made...

In the factories non trade fair 14 year old girls had to work 7 days a week, 12 hours a day, standying up with no breaks.

I haven't shoped for any clothes since i first found these truths. I wont be shopping for clothes for a while actualy. I have decided i have enough clothes and that i just need to be creative with those i already have.
And next time i shop for any item im going to be aware of all these metters.

For instance, if you go shopping for food or anything else, check first where it comes from. if it comes from another continent a lot of chances are that it came by airplane. Do you know what that does to Planet Earth?Also by buying products made in the country you are living in will only help your economy to grow.

I went to a japanese shop today called Muji to buy a notebook. Aparently everything is recycled and "organic" but is it really or just has a very zen look in disguise for a big vampire? I need to investigate. Does anyone know?

I'm opened for debate.

I'm not posting any songs today, I need silence to replan my life avoiding as much unfair trades.

madness our house




After the rain comes sun...

Many thoughts came into my head today while re decorating my bedroom... One was odd but quiet true .

I came to the conclusion whenever my family decides to get a big house bad things happen.

This is our second big house. The first one i wont even tell you, would bring tears to your eyes and a sadness you would never be free of...

This time, is sad too but not aaaaaas sad.

Our neighbours decided to make a petition against my family because we have too many dogs. It´s true, we do have too many, but we sleep well at night because they are still alive and bringing joy to many many lives.

Many police complaints later my parents have finally found the perfect house - a very small house where they will be happier.

Smaller houses are like that. I don´t know if the good energies travel better or safer in smaller places, but it´s true. our first house was tinny but we have never been happier.

Because our life is made of a lot of MADNESS i thought no better tracks to define this situation.

Plus, i must declare here, in front of the world wide web I AM SO PROUD OF MY FAMILY BACK AT HOME WHO ARE STRONGER THAN NEVER, STRONG LIKE ROCKS.


And it goes like this...

Viva Zwei - May rest in peace



My sister and I both have bloggs about our favourite songs. My blog is more related to their videos anyway.

The only reason for these blogs is the existence in a time far far away of a German chanel called VIVA ZWEI.

We didn´t have cable tv at home, only the short signal of someone´s satelite. Destiny made the signal of Viva ZWEI apear in our tv. We spent hours and hours trying to understand what they were talking about. after a few years we could pick some stuff... if not the essencial which was good music. Our favorite presenter was Charlotte Roche. She had the best make up i have ever seen in a tv presenter.

Tocotronic were one of those bands we found.

And it goes like this...

Rich Nature





I had a day closer to what´s my religion - Nature. There is nothing better than a day closer to clean fresh air, trees, animals and the harmony they crete between them. Me, as the human being completing this chain, of course.

This song didnt get out of my mind today when i waked in Richmond Park - London.

The video wasn´t filmed there but it´s very similar.

I would have loved to post lamb´s video for God Bless which was filmed at richmond park making it look like an exotic island but there was no code on you tube. You can always check it in this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWaT3L-f3Ro


I´m now feeling full of energy even though i spent about 6 hours walking in the cold but felt so good



ps. these are my friends Ana and Felix.

K




12 years and a tattoo later, i´m finally going to see Kula Shaker live at Shepherds bush tonight. I shall report later

Your camera never has batteries when you need them the most. I have my theory: it´s because you need to enjoy the moment instead of looking through a camera lens.

this is the only photo i took. better than nothing. the rest is in my memory

Ronson, We need to talk

WHAT IS THIS?!


I WILL ASK AGAIN, ONLY ONCE MORE, WHAT DA F?%&/ S GOING ON?



What´s with all this buzz now around Mark Ronson? Because he produced Amy Winehouse´s album? Look at her! She´s in a state!!!!!!The album is good but sound exactly like all albums! What´s the fuss!


Then the man comes, kills an anthem (Just, from Radiohead) and you let him roam the streets as if nothing has happened? Just, just like that? With no shame! No no, nothing! nicles!

This video could be an insult! Years and years trying to find out the meaning of the original´s video and PUM, MARK RONSON COMES AND THINKS HE KNOWS THE END!

The following video is an example of how bad can a video be,

And it goes like this...

To you, yes YOU

So WE, me and the other mes, are posting a song that makes us happy.

Sunday 3 February 2008

a door closed a window opened. a door and a window closed, a roof opened. Hope

This is a post full of hope. I look at my life and i can see a very dark road to walk. But i don´t know why, or where i get this from, i seem to find myself an infinite hope and peace


I need hope to help myself and the others. Right now i know i haven´t been the best friend to my friends. I have been avoiding them and hiding myself. I´ve been living a very independent life which i don´t know right now if it´s the best way to go, but i feel great just sitting on my own, listening to sigur ros and posting my blog even if no one reads it.

the tascam does not love me now

Right. So i had a bad day and, by the normal course of events, later i'll have a great night. I hope.

My profession is related with sound. that's what i've studied and what i love. but what do i really love about sound? i like the emotion of it, what music can bring to our society, not exactly how to plug a sync box to a pro tools and then to a tascam da 88

The last couple of days ive been bombarded with so much technical information about HD film that i don't even know if i understood everything. I wonder if i ever notice that if all im looking for is the emotion...

And so many producers are into that lame shit that is emotions! yes!

Today i couldn't record my pro tools edit to the tascam, tomorrow ill find out. and if i dont find out, maybe i dont need that. in my mind has been playing all day "charmed life" from divine comedy. in case you haven't figgered out yet, neil hannon is my favourite lyricist.

To Neil, for all the hope you give me.

And it goes like this...


When I hold you in my arms,
And look back on my charmed-
life
My charmed life
I hope, I hope if nothing more
That one day you’ll call your-
Life
A charmed life

Well I never really worried that much
About making lots of money and such
And I always seemed to land on my feet.
Though there’s been some difficult times
The good times where never far behind
I snatched all of my victories from the jaws of defeat

When I hold you in my arms,
And look back on my charmed-
life
My charmed life
I hope, I hope if nothing more
That one day you’ll call your-
Life
A charmed life

Well the course of true love never ran smooth
They broke my heart, and I broke theirs too
And breaking up was so very hard to do
But I knew I’d find the one
And sure enough she came along
And not long after that along came you

Well sometimes this life is like being afloat
On a raging sea in a little row boat
Just trying not to be washed overboard
But if you take your chances and you ride your luck
And you never, never, never, never, never give up
Well those waves will see you safely to a friendly shore

When I hold you in my arms,
I know that this is a charmed-
life
A charmed life
