The C86 tape thing was a little tiny revolution. NME prove it right establishing an authentic niche cult due to became more popular even further when years to come gave youngsters the power of look out and collect songs by gathering information on blogs and e-zines catching up with those lost gems thanks mp3 and file sharing.

Time for another podcast. This time I focused on my recent listening mainly driven by the artist I’m gonna see live this summer, especially thanks to the impressive selection made by Hana-Bi, offering our eager indie-hears practically the joys of a permanent summer festival. I threw in a new one from I Cani debut album [...]
So many things to share and so little time to do it properly with a review! Once again goin’ for a podcast seemed to me the most obvious solution to bring some bands, new and odd interesting stuff to your attention.
Listening to my friend Kaypea Elizabeth Porsch on UK based Insanity Radio’sProtozoa radio show… has been just a little bit contagious! Here’s my attempt to go back to the roots and explore the wild underground of rockabilly music! From be-bop to surfing birds, here you go with some doubtable gems that would get Elvis Costello’s Kojak [...]
First time I’ve stumbled on “Vermillion Sands” was a live performance on a YouTube Video. I didn’t ever recall the name, but since I’m really into garage rock and fuzz guitars I was positively impressed by the band.
Tricked to believe it was an album, tonight I’m gonna check my from my fingers long departure from the keyboards to bring you to the attention of yet another release from one of the most active and lovable indie labeld still messin’ around and playing with our hearts.
Seems like finally I’m finding no more time during the week but making podcast! Playing with the band, goin’ to radioshow and attending live shows stealing all the time from me, and when I come back in my room in front of my computer nothing is more delightful than sitting on my desk, gather some [...]
This time I went back to the podcast thing with the intention of exploring some obscure indie pop from Spain to share with you listeners some recent discover. Recent is completely out of place as a word, since Juan Pardo Suárez and Antonio Morales Barretto had their debut as “Juan y Junior” on 1963 and [...]
Let’s be honest. I hadn’t enough strength and patience to write another review, or tell you how Anna Calvi live show was cool nor having to admit that Fujiya & Miyagi hadn’t that appeal on me (while the newbie Low Frequency Club was quite a revelation in all their repeated psy-funk music patterns). Still I [...]
Some of you may know a city called Rome, a nice wicked place in the middle of Italy, that is basically Europe. They say it was the centre of the World sometime ago, so it was a pleasure for my friends and me to have a little trip downtown, chat basically about nothing with the [...]
The Man Avec Les Lunettes are possibly the most influent English lyrics oriented indie pop band in Italy. It’s been some years since they’ve been around, and their story was unveiled to us like diary pages from blogs and little reviews popping out from independent music magazines since somewhere around 2005. This band always hit [...]

Back in 1980, The Undertones told the story of Cousin Kevin, a spoilt and pampered child who was bought the best Subbuteo set and a fur-lined, sheepskin jacket that, according to Mrs Sharkey, cost quite a bit of money. Oh, and a synthesiser. And in order for young Kevin to learn the said instrument his [...]

Niklas Gustafsson is such an amazing artist. He’s into so many musical projects that I’m not surprised anymore each time I realize I missed one of them! Got to know Nilkas better thanks to his electro-pop band “Friday Bridge”, during the hottest moment of “the indie-era explosion”.
Recently I found myself in the position on trying to explain a classic rock listener what post-punk was meant to be. And that’s all because of Wire, the band, still alive and kicking like an Highlander dinosaur unwilling to give up to the floating of time, also thanks to the movement revival in the post [...]
There’s absolutely no doubt: IndieTracks will be the main summer festival being able to attract worldwide indie fanboys from all over globe’s bedrooms feelin’ in their bones the desperate need to get back to The island just like Jack used to bark about on the American tv serie LOST.
I burp about music and I don' have time to time to spell check.
