Saludando al maestro

Buenos días excursionistas! Ayer, por primera vez en mi vida, asistí a una firma de discos, y tuve la oportunidad de conocer y saludar al maestro @ji_lapido ! Con los nervios propios de un principiante, o de un niño que va a saludar a los Reyes Magos, no le transmití lo importante que han sido […]

Se acercaba sigiloso…

Buenas tardes excursionistas… Una letra que me ha venido a la cabeza… del poeta eléctrico: Vi el otoño, acercarse sigiloso, con su carga de lluvia y de dolor… El principio del fin – Lapido (2001) No he encontrado un vídeo con mejor imagen. Enjoy! Podéis escuchar el audio original aquí.

Birthdays: 20 (and V) and see you soon!

Today, let’s close this quick glimpse of records released 20 years ago that are celebrating their birthdays during 2019. We have done something similar with the 30th, 40th and 50th anniversary of such ‘birthday albums’.

XV), and since the first verse is the title of the new album of Lapido (El alma dormida), we’ve got a […]

Ciudadano A (and B)

I am afraid I am astonished with the grotesque political situation in my country. Today I discovered an interesting video that include a live performance of Ivan Ferreiro that he introduces like a song about politics, and our responsability when we vote for one ir another politician. I have found appropriate to share both, the […]

El alma dormida

It is a pleasure to share today the first single of the new record (the eighth one, released last friday) by the master of masters: Lapido. The record is a new sign of his poetry, and a great exponent of DIY (Do It Yourself): he is the owner of the label (Pentatonia Records), he has […]

Angels and Demons

Spain is a country with an old Catholic tradition; in fact, still today there are some areas where someone’s saint’s day receive more attention and celebration than his/her birthday. Today is one of some of the ‘famous’, or well-known saint’s day since it is dedicated to the three archangels (out of seven) accepted by Catholicism. […]
