- Hello again fellow bloggers. The man considered to be one of the godfathers of the mod movement is back with a new album and is giving a concert in Madrid. I am talking about Paul Weller. For those who’ve followed Paul’s unparalleled thirty year journey through British pop, 22 Dreams, which is his new album, should come as no surprise. Having split up The Jam at the height of their powers in 1982, he spent the rest of the eighties challenging pop convention with The Style Council (including an attempt to turn a reluctant audience on to Acid House in 1989). In the nineties, he pioneered a new form of psychedelic folk-rock which reinstalled him as the pre-eminent songwriter of his generation. Place: La Riviera Address: Paseo Bajo de la Virgen del Puerto, s/n (next to Puente de Segovia) Date: 18/10/2008 Time: 19.30 h Tickets: Red Tick Tack Ticket (www.ticktackticket.com, 902 15 00 25 and participating shops) Price: 35 €

- Hey friends and music lovers! After a little break, I back to talk and comment on anything that has to do with music and more, in our “little” town of Madrid. Well the biggest thing to happen music wise in Madrid this summer, has been the colossal Rock In Rio. Well, I had the fortune, thanks to my dear cousin D, to get VIP tickets to this fantastic event. I must say that it was very well organized, and the line ups were great. There is a ‘but’ though. The mix of different artists on the same stage may have seemed like a good idea, but took away from the over all energy and vibe. I guess that’s what festivals are for: mixin’ it up! I saw most of the performances from the privileged balcony of the VIP tent, with free food and drinks! Don’t get better than that. Now to music… Well my favorite where the Police by far!!! Three living legends on stage jamming! Amazing! I couldn’t believe it was only three dudes up there. Sounded so “phat”, that it seamed like 10 musicians. True rock and roll energy. Rock in Rio did it again, and this time in our back yard, and as always for a good cause. I really hope they do it here again. Well people, this is it for this week. Your feed back is very welcome. Peace.

- Hello people, welcome back to my little music blog. Well, this time I would like to recommend a concert for all appreciators of hip hop and rap music. Busta Rhymes is probably one of my favorite rappers. He has been doing this since the 90´s , and collaborated with artists like: Dr. Dre, The Neptunes, Mariah Carey, Janet Jackson and many more. I just love his rhyming skills, that he blend with a little raga, that he brings from his Jamaican roots. His latest record is called Back on my BS, and I´m sure the show is going to be amazing. Hip hop don’t stop. Peace out.

- Hello boys and girls. Your neighbourhood friendly music advisor is back from a short break, with wonderful news for all you, music lovers. If you haven’t heard of Gilberto Gil then you are missing out. Born in Bahia, Brazil, about 62 years ago, he is, along with names such as Maria Bethania and Caetano Veloso, one of the founders of the Tropicalia movement, which opened Brazilian music to other influences. They mixed traditional Brazilian sounds with other stiles like jazz, rock and more. With more than 30 albums and 4 million records sold, mr. Gil is a legend of Brazilian music, and is currently the Minister of Culture in the country of samba and bossa. He comes to Madrid this month with a new show and a new album (\'Electroacustico\'). Hey, I am not about to miss this show, and I suggest you don’t either. Peace out. Place: Palacio Municipal de Congresos Address: Ribera del Sena, s/n.

- Hey kids! This week I would like to recommend a concert by a local band. Yes boys and girls. This is rare in me, but I think this band is really worth it. They are Los Petersellers. They are a rock band that have a great time playing, and the audience is always infected by their energy and humour. Surely a fun show, filled with great music and funny lyrics. Place: Moby Dick Address: Avda. de Brasil, 5 Date: 26/03/2008 Time: 22 h. See you there, and don´t forget to send me your opinions and suggestions. Peace.

- Hello friends. This week my choice for a musical recommendation in Madrid is pretty easy. I’m talking about the Klubbers Day 2008 festival at the Telefonica Arena, the 14 and 15 of March. It’s the third year for this festival that combines the best acts in electronic music and hip hop from all over the world. We will be able to see artists like Oscar Mulero, Sven Vath, Ken Ichi, Dj Hell, as well as 7notas 7colores, Dj Premiere, Mos Def or De La Soul. And these are just a few. Sounds like a fun weekend! PS: If anybody was at any of The Cure concerts, please let me know how it was. Peace out.

- Hello people! Lately my concert recommendations have been kina of heavy, metal that is. Well folks, its time for a little dark pop or pop goth or somethin’. Well who cares about stupid labels when you’re talking about really good music. I’m talking about The Cure. Yes, they are back on tour, and they are coming to Madrid. This next 6th of March at 20 hours they will be playing at the Palacio de Deportes de la Comunidad de Madrid Address: Avenida de Felipe II, s/n. I must say that I have seen them Live at the Plaza de Toros de Las Ventas, and I was blown away. Great songs, excellent performers. There is only one negative: If you didn’t buy your tickets months ago, then it’s going to be tough to see them this time. PS: keep an eye out for the upcoming new double album by this legendary band. Peace.

- Hello Bloggers. Before my weekly recommendation I would like to ask anybody who saw the concert of The Queens Of the Stone Age to write on the blog, and let me know how it was. Unfortunately I missed it… (¡que alguien me cuente qué tal el concierto porque me lo perdí!). Back to our usual business. The 28th of February, in about 10 days, we will be able to attend the Fiesta Presentación Getafe Electric Festival. This festival will feature the kings of “new metal”. I’m talking about the super band KORN. Yes! Fellow rockers, this is a great chance to see this amazingly talented and energetic band. The venue will be La Cubierta at 20:30 hours and you can get your tickets at: Red Tick Tack Ticket (www.ticktackticket.com, 902 15 00 25 and associated shops). Rock on!! Don’t be shy and send me your opinions and recommendations.

- Yes i did see the morcheeba concert. It was at the presentation of Pacha TV. Apart from the fact that they dont have the original singer anymore, which is a downer, it was preaty low in energy, and basically, the \"beautifull people\" at Pacha, where more interested in themselves than the show itself. Well... maybe next time.

- 12 feb 2008 Hey people! This week there are two different musical acts that I want to recommend, which go from \"a little rock and roll\" to funk and electronic. The first is the QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE concert the 15th of February at 21.30h, in La Riviera venue. This is one of the most important hard rock band in the States, and have had collaborations with Dave Grohl (leader of The Foo Fighters) and Mark Lanegan of the Screaming Trees. They are back in Madrid after a 5 year absence. For all the rockers out there, this is must. A must, but for funk and electronic lovers, is the concert that Watch TV and The Primetimes are giving at the Marulacafe (www.marulacafe.com), on Thursday, February 14th. Ruben Garcia, aka Watch Tv, is a local dj/producer who, apart from his own tunes, has remixed for artists like Quantic, Wagon Cooking, Duplex Inc and more. Now he\'s joined by his band The Primetimes to delight us with some funky soulful sounds to dance to. Tasty!!! Well... that’s it for today. Peace and enjoy.

- Hello bloggers. This week my musical recommendation goes in two different directions. First, is the release of a new album by the young veteran king of cool, Lenny Kravitz. For all of his fans and anybody who likes soul, funk and rock, \"It Is Time For A Love Revolution\" will not let you down. On top of it all there is a limited edition release that includes a DVD with interviews about the record and 6 videos. On the other hand I would like to recommend the Eliades Ochoa concert. This musician who participated in the renowned documentary \"Buena Vista Social Club\", is considered to be one of the best guitarists and singers in Cuba’s traditional music scene. The concert will be held at Joy Eslava on calle Arenal,11 on Saturday, February 9th at 21.30 hours, and is the presentation of Eliades´ new album: \"Estoy Como Nunca\". Well folks, that’s it for this week. I’ll keep an eye out for more classy acts and releases. Don’t forget to write to me with your musical suggestions and experiences. Thanx and peace.

- Hello bloggers, Here I am once again trying to bring to you some info on what’s going on in the great city of Madrid, music \"wise\". Last time I might have surprised people by suggesting a concert of classical Spanish music. Well, today I will further explore my varied taste in music by inviting you to what could be a very interesting concert. I’m talking about the show that performs the acclaimed film director from the Balkans, Emir Kusturica. Music has always played an important role in his movies, but it came as a surprise to me to find out that he is also a musician and that his band, the No Smoking Orchestra, an 11 piece ensemble, is presenting this new album Time of the Gypsies, here in Madrid. The concert will be the 1st of February at La Riviera venue. This should be a fun time, and I’m not gonna miss it. Until next time. Ciao.

- Sin palabras me hallo después de ver el concierto de unos chicos que se hacen llamar AHIJA2. Es uno de esos grupos noveles que trabajan en la sombra con mucha marcha buen ritmo y unas canciones que bien podrían estar de number one en los 40 Principales. El concierto fue el jueves pasado día 24 y fue increíble. Hacía años que no me lo pasaba tan bien. Según leo es su web (www.myspace.com/ahija2) hacen otro concierto el 14 de marzo en Ritmo y Compás. Es mi primer concierto...con ellos y sospecho que no será el último.

- Blog Kwenya: 11 enero 08 Hey there! Its January and yes, the weather is not so great lately here in Madrid. Fortunately this is one of the European capitals with the most sunshine throughout the year. But for now, a great way to overcome this cold and wet month is by dancing the night away. Indeed! And no better city to do so than Madrid. Here are a few tips: Ohm Sessions on Fridays and Saturdays are great, with their exellent resident djs Kike Boy and specially dj Tetsu, this is a great night out for all genders and sexual orientation. At the same venue but on Sunday you can check out the legendary Weekend Club. This is a party that’s been going strong for ten years. Slammin! Check out their webpage: www.tripfamily.com. That’s it for today. Ciao.
