Music inside the hole

The promotional video "Sónar 2010 - Finisterrae: Etapa 2. Pescando" gives me sensations from the past. Great moment with Jeff Mills. See inside the hole like the gost does!

A tribute for Bali and my own generation


Yesterday night, my partner Jesus and I were to gala tribute "Por Bali", a prolific actor, a connaisseur of rock and roll and many other music, a charming and kindly man whom everybody loved, suddenly death a fee weeks ago, letting us in shock.

The reaction of his acquaintances and friends over the Internet was tremendous from the start. The act of last night, with dozens of public testimonies of affection expressed to the family, could move something inside me, especially the chance to know him better. But it also made me feel that a social action around something so private and terrific is too hard. I would have been very difficult to digest if it had been around my husband or my brother.

In any case, more personal, the party made me think that I don´t want to lose touch with the generation to which I belong, yesterday represented by musicians, actors and other cultural producers,... like me in the past.

Now that I work just in new technologies, creative people around is quite younger than me. The relationships I have established now are very interesting and productives, but less comfortable. I go to follow the evolution of my generation mates.

Baba O'Riley effect

I grew up in a dictatorship but I was accompanied by many people who fought to put end it. Not only in politics... In the seventies in Spain cultural life was very, very poor and open mind people found abroad the inspiration to survive, the idols to imitate and the hymns to be sung.
One important song at this moment of my life was "Baba O'Riley" by The Who. Now, I have recovered it in credit lines of "CSI", the TV series. The world has changed quickly!

Baba O'Riley

Out here in the fields
I fight for my meals
I get my back into my living
I don't need to fight
To prove I'm right
I don't need to be forgiven
No, no, no

Don't cry
Don't raise your eye
It's only teenage wasteland

Sally, take my hand
Travel south crossland
Put out the fire
Don't look past my shoulder
The exodus is here
The happy ones are near
Let's get together
Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland
It's only teenage wasteland
Teenage wasteland
Oh, oh
Teenage wasteland
They're all wasted!
