The Loop Mans Up For Tame Impala

Posted by Roberto in IN THE LOOP on April 27, 2015

Aussie psychedelic revivalists Tame Impala carry on showing they are in top form with “Cause I’m A Man”, the second taster from their new album “Currents” which tops the latest edition of our loop.

Runddans, the surprising collaboration between Lindstrøm; Todd Rundgren and Serena-Maneesh’s Emil Nikolaisen, gave us the highest entry, followed by the latest tracks from Evans The Death; Jamie XX; Torres; Sheer Mag; Blanck Mass; Unknown Mortal Orchestra and the Return of chef Raekwon, recruiting A$ap Rocky for his new album’s heralding single.

REVIEW 2008: TOP 100 SINGLES (100-76)

Posted by Roberto in MUSIC REVIEW, MUSIC REVIEW, POP CULTURE & NEWS, POP CULTURE & NEWS on December 19, 2008

101-RICARDO VILLALOBOS-Enfants

Our favourite tracks of 2008 also suffered from the overall quality clash, even when the new digital format threaten with turning the traditional album into a thing from the past, favouring the track as the ultimate choice. Even so, the highlighted singles pale in comparison with other years’ offer, showing a noticeable growth in the presence of guilty pleasures that wouldn’t have classified in better times; hardest sounds were also on the rise.
Not everything was negative, though. The EP, as a way of compromising between the track and the album, seemed to be the chosen format among new acts that wanted to launch themselves with something more substantial than a mere catchy tune; the quality and number of them made us raise our hopes for a better 2010.

Nuestras canciones favoritas del 2008 acusaban también el bajón cualitativo general, incluso cuando los nuevos formatos digitales amenazan con convertir al tradicional álbum en cosa del pasado, favoreciendo la canción como elección ultima. Incluso así los singles que destacamos palidecen si los comparamos con los de otras temporadas, con un considerable aumento en la presencia de “pecadillos comerciales” que no hubieran llegado a clasificarse en tiempos mejores; los sonidos más duros también incrementaban su presencia.
No todo era negativo: el formato EP, a modo de compromiso entre canción y álbum, parecía estar en auge entre nuevas bandas que se presentaban con algo más sólido que un mero tema pegadizo; en tal número y cantidad que nos hacían concebir esperanzas de mejora en el 2010. Read the rest of this entry »
