Colette c’est chouette - BUSY P feat Linlee Allen
This is one of the reasons why Colette rules. Besides selling stuff they promote art. They made a track for their 15 year anniversary.
Felices 15 Colette!
P.S. :I can’t stop dancing to this , automatic cool mood setter!
Drive has an excellent soundtrack , it works perfectly with the picture coordination,flow and sentiment of the film. Here a compilation of my favorite tracks from diverse artists ,doing unusual music for their style (Desire case) and their well made mark.

A song about Earthquakes:
Yesterday December the 10th of 2011 a strong 6.8 Richter scale earthquake shocked Mexico City and some other Mexican regions. For “chilangos” (people who live in the City ) was a very frightful moment because of the intensity and longitude of the earth movements.And people couldn’t help thinking about the terrible event that happened in 1985´s tremor. Nothing mayor happened in the city but people´s nervousness and panic.
To lighten up the tone a notch here a very funny , half in English and half in Spanish song about Earthquakes called: La Falla de San Andrés - San Andres Fault and performed by the hilarious and bilingual Kevin Johansen.

I just found this old video , from three years ago in my previously purchased list over itunes , finding it very current to our times and not feeling it old at all. The illustrations are the best part.

Today major stock markets around the globe have suffered a big fall , from the economic point of view it even can be considered a crash.So i found this song that i considered very appropriate for the occasion , to relax a bit the mood and see it with a bit of humor.

Stereogum have done a tribute to The Strokes by doing an album of covers with different,musicians of this decade. The importance of Is This It ,besides it’s good musicality ,for the music industry is a representation that indie rock was steel a good viability. Since at the beginning of the century record companies and artists were afraid that rock music was going to be shadowed by pop music.
In the late nighties creatives of the music industry thought that there should be a forced watershed in the beginning of the new decade and millennium;that happened before in previous decades in a very natural form.Music is a reflection of society where is their dreams, aspirations or reality; therefore this changes shouldn’t be forced.Pop was the solution. Then The Vines came to the music scene and proved that there was space for a new sound of rock and that consumers would accept it. In 2001 Is This It of The Strokes with the single Last Night appeared in scene and it reaffirmed that this space was available and ready to be occupied.Since then they have been working hard and they are here to stay until rock alouds it.
Personally i try to not go back very much in music because i always disliked the people that gets trapped in the past of an era, specially where they were young thinking there is nothing good anymore, which couldn’t be more untrue since new talents in different arts are getting cooked more and more and being multiplied. For this reason is that i don’t go back much in the 90s or 00s music. But this new album was a good pretext to revise this particular C.D. ( yes in those times people listened to those).
