A internet é hoje em dia o reflexo daquilo que somos para o bem e para o mal. Eu criei este blogue com o objectivo de falar sobre a cultura pop - musica, cinema, livros, fotografia, dança... porque gosto de partilhar a minha paixão, o meu conhecimento a todos. O meu amor pela música é intenso, bem como a minha curiosidade pelo novo. Como não sou um expert em nada, sei um pouco de tudo, e um pouco de nada, o gosto ultrapassa as minhas dificuldades. Todos morremos sem saber para que nascemos.

Pop Dell'Arte - Sem Nome (Official Video)
It could be untitled, but Pop Dell’Arte chose “Sem Nome”. This is, despite the paradox, the name of the new single extracted from Transgressio Global, an album that would mark the band's return to records after Contra Mundum (2010), but which saw its release postponed (should have happened today) to date announce soon.
João Peste, full name João Luís Peste Santos Guerreiro (Campo de Ourique, Lisbon - 9 September 1962) is a Portuguese musician, mentor and vocalist of Pop Dell'Arte.
He joined ISCTE in 1980, where he completed a degree in Sociology in 1985. That same year, he formed the band Pop Dell'Arte, which won the prize for originality in the 2nd Modern Music Competition of Rock Rendez-Vous. In 1986 he created the publisher Ama Romanta, together with Maria João Serra, a publisher who on May 28th of that year released the album Divergências which, in addition to an interview, made and music by João Peste, to sociologist José Manuel Paquete de Oliveira, has the participation of names like Pop Dell'Arte, Mler Ife Dada, Essa Entente, Anamar, Croix Sainte, Final Scream, The Young Guard, SPQR, Extreme Unction, General Line and The Dogs to Death & Desire, among others.

This is, despite the paradox, the name of the new single extracted from Transgressio Global, an album that would mark the band's return to records after Contra Mundum (2010), but which saw its release postponed (should have happened today) to date announce soon.
João Peste's discography with Pop Dell'Arte dates back to February 1987 when Ama Romanta published the max-single Querelle. Still in 1987, Ama Romanta released the single Dreams Pop (in November 1986) and the album Free Pop (in December 1987) with covers by Nuno Leonel and João Peste with graphics by Rafael Toral, respectively . Free Pop appears on several lists of the best Portuguese albums ever - Blitz, Público, Diário de Notícias, FNAC and Câmara Clara of RTP-2. The English newspaper Sounds even gave 4.5 points (out of 5 possible) to Free Pop in an article written by the famous musician and journalist John Robb in 1988, while Ricardo Saló wrote in Expresso in June 2011, which is perhaps the best Portuguese album from the 80s.
The records Free Pop and Sonhos Pop were presented live at Aula Magna in Lisbon, in a historic concert, organized by R.U.T. - Rádio Universidade Tejo and Ama Romanta in January 1988. Criticism of the album was divided between accusations of fraud at Se7e and praise for genius in the weekly Expresso, (João Lisboa). The controversy was so great that the TSF even made a program about the controversy of Pop dell'Arte, which aired on several European radio stations.

Why D'ya Do It?
Kid & Khan - 'Why D’Ya Do It?', From the 2004 album Bad English
In 2000 I met and started collaborating with minimal electronic music pioneer and provocateur Khan when recording his album No Comprendo. Our rock meets electro combo pre-dated the “electroclash” movement, when it was still like bringing Satan into the room if you played a guitar at a techno club. Even worse, we danced, stripped and jumped in the audience. Half loved it, half were disgusted. Our goal reached! On a full length LP, Bad English, we covered Marianne Faithful’s tour de force, 'Why D’Ya Do It?'.
"Why'd ya do it, she said, why'd you let that trash
Get a hold of your cock, get stoned on my hash?”. Why not!

The Human League - 4JG - JG BALLARD
"JG Ballard: The music he inspiredNo other writer has had as much influence on pop music as JG Ballard. His dystopian vision and sense of fear have held artists entranced and inspired bands across the decades.
When the sad news arrived yesterday that JG Ballard had died, it wasn't just literature that lost one of its most singular voices. For as anyone with even a passing interest in post-punk or new rave will know, Ballard was a huge inspiration to musicians. In fact, when critics described Klaxons' debut album as "Ballardian" – an epithet now recognised by the Oxford English Dictionary – most of us had an idea of how it might sound.
There were other influential modern writers before him – William Burroughs, for example – and there have been more since (the entire cyber-punk genre that Ballard spawned), but no one has so consistently pursued a vision through a life's work and been so influential to musicians. While Burroughs effectively spoofed science fiction, Ballard reinvented it by giving it a soul and a conscience, and in doing so provided a cornerstone between music, fashion, literature and emerging philosophical constructs such as psychogeography.
Ballard's vision was a dystopian that entranced a host of young musicians. Consider the cold clinical sounds created in the late 70s by those who filtered punk's nihilistic worldview through synthesisers and tape loops, chief among them Cabaret Voltaire and This Heat, whose music had the same transporting effect as Ballard's prose, or Warm Leatherette by the Normal, a song that almost single-handedly invented minimalist electro.
It is only a few steps from Ballard's fetishisation of automobiles and terminal velocity in Crash to Warm Leatherette and then on to Gary Numan's Cars.
Ballard's lexicon extends to inspiring song titles and bands too: from the Joy Division track Atrocity Exhibition through to Empire of the Sun (the latest band formed by former Sleepy Jackson frontman Luke Steele) via many more as previously discussed.

Disturbed Furniture - Information
Disturbed Furniture has recently reformed and are following up with a new EP scheduled for Fall 2019 release
Halo of Pain
Reunited New York City avant rockers, Disturbed Furniture demonstrate with "Halo of Pain" that they've lost none of their fire since disbanding in the early 1980s.
"Halo of Pain" is the latest track from Continuous Pleasures, the 2019 EP from Disturbed Furniture. An integral part of the New York City venue Club 57, the group ended a lengthy hiatus a few years ago to perform live and record new music.
Produced by Jorge Arévalo Mateus, Alexa Hunter, and Mick Oakleaf and recorded at Mighty Toad Recording and The Honey Jar in Brooklyn, with additional tracks done at Blighty Music Studios in Los Angeles, the set was released by Arevarc Records.
The collective have lost none of their fire, power, or avant-garde tendencies since the end of their initial run. One can hear the brooding of NYC streets in "Halo of Pain", the pendulum swing between high and low art, fine, refined intellectual tendencies, and the unsatisfied, plaintive rumblings in the belly of the beast

The Hundred In The Hands - Dressed In Dresden
Boy-girl disco-punk from NY heard it all before? Well just for us check these out. Nonchalant vocals, juddering guitars with rumbling doom bass Jason Friedman, formerly of rocknrollers The Boggs, and TV On The radio collaborator Eleanore Everdell are worth taking a new spin round the Brooklyn block.

Within You Without You (Remastered 2009)
1967 - George Harrison
The first session recording new song ‘Within You Without You’ took place at Abbey Road studios, London. George was the only Beatle to perform on this song, which was still called 'Untitled'. Harrison played the swordmandel and tamboura, Natver Soni played tabla, Amrat Gajjar played dilruba, PD Joshi played swordmandel, and an undocumented musician played a droning tamboura.
Throbbing Gristle - Maggot Death, Pt. 1 (32AR)
industrial music pioneer Genesis P-Orridge, dead at 70.
If you like your music hard, heavy, and clanky, then spare a moment on the passing of Genesis P-Orridge of Throbbing Gristle and the person who invented industrial music.
P-Orridge (real name Neil Andrew Megson) was a musician, poet and Dada-inspired performance artist whose career extends all the way back to 1965. He’d/she’d been battling leukemia for the past while and finally died on Saturday (March 14) at the age of 70.
RIP Genesis P-Orridge.
This statement was released by Gen's daughters and was posted to Facebook about 15 minutes ago.

Psychic TV - Je T'Aime
Genesis P-ORRIDGE the secret of life is to live !, to live is to be free.
That beauty is not in what we see, but in what we feel.
What to do is better than talking.
Let the look not lie.
To live is to learn from mistakes.
I learned that everything depends on the will.
That it is best to be ourselves.
Family - The Weavers Answer/How Hi-the-Li
1976 was a watershed year: the music industry was revitalized by the emergence of "independent" labels and the music scene was revitalized by the emergence of new genres. The two phenomena fed into each other and spiraled out of control. In a matter of months, a veritable revolution changed the way music was produced, played and heard. The old rock stars were forgotten and new rock stars began setting new trends. As far as white popular music goes, it was a sort of Renaissance after a few years of burgeoisie icons (think: Bowie), conservative sounds (country-rock, southern boogie) and exploitation of minorities (funk, reggae).
During the 1970s alternative rock had survived in niches that were highly intellectual, namely German rock and progressive-rock (particularly the Canterbury school). They were all but invisible to the masses.
1976 was the year when most of those barriers (between "low" and "high" rock, between "intellectual" and "populist", between "conservative" and "progressive", between "star" and "anti-star") became not only obsolete but meaningless. Something similar had happened in 1966, when rock music as we know it was born through the revolutionary records of Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Pink Floyd, Doors, Velvet Underground, etc. But in 1976 rock music had a powerful ally: the record industry itself, that an army of amateurish entrepreneurs rescued from the virtual monopoly of the "major" labels.
The creative explosion was indeed very similar to the exuberance of the mid Sixties. However, the mood was completely different. The Sixties were, ultimately, an optimistic age. The young generation thought it could change (and own) the world. In 1976, only the most utopian of teenagers could fathom an ideal world in which peace and honesty triumph.
