Henry Gonzalez
Ministry – Karen O, Danger Mouse
9 April 2019
I loved this song from the very beginning, it’s got all the signature moods of a good Danger Mouse but also an amazing twist at the beginning, such an unexpected beat when you first listen to the introduction…
Intervention – Arcade Fire
26 March 2019
As I stared into the little compartment in the graveyard where my father’s ashes are stored along with my grandparents’ I heard this song’s opening chord, resonating loudly inside my head. This has always been a deeply emotional piece of music for me…
The Rose With The Broken Neck – Danger Mouse, Daniele Luppi, Jack White
18 March 2019
Roses are treasures. Life seems like a horrible mystery when we fail to understand all the answers are really inside us. Roses are a reminder of the precious place we inhabit, the blessings we’re surrounded with every day, but we fail to see them as gifts from the earth…
Glory Box – Portishead
4 March 2019
You can’t put a price on the great gift this band has to create unique soundscapes, these kind of things feel to me a bit more common now with the development of recording techniques and some of the aesthetic trends that have grown to be more popular over the years, the rising popularity of bands like “the xx” has contributed to this and I feel Portishead somehow played a part in all this…
Latin Simone (Qué pasa contigo) ft. Ibrahim Ferrer – Gorillaz
26 February 2019
To honor the dead is to honor life, and what better way to do so tonight than to remember such a giant artist like Ibrahim Ferrer in his exotic collaboration with Gorillaz.
I used to listen to this song so much a few years back, it resonated a lot with me…
Way You Dance – Dio Spirit
13 February 2019
The atmosphere this song creates is quite different to what you expect when they tell you to expect a rap song, and yet it makes my mind dance to it, it proves us that you don’t need to be anyone else but yourself, everything else will fall into place…
Romance – Ex:Re
6 February 2019
Pulse, the language of the heart as the seat of the soul, an essential message your body gives to life, a story of romance between your physiology and the world, a story of deep love between your soul and this dimension, a statement of life, sometimes a shiver, sometimes a whisper or a scream…
Suspirium – Thom Yorke
6 February 2019
This is a waltz.
But this is also an offering, an offering of sweat and tears, a sea of tears for each and everyone of the deceased troubled souls of this world, dead without an inch of mercy, left too early or too suddenly, left without explanation, left without compassion, killed without regret, left with all their wounds fresh, left broken and fragmented, left without a moment of silence, without anyone to mourn them…
Pyramid Song – Radiohead
22 January 2019
There’s a stain of blood on the moon and it’s demanding our truth.
I heard this song in my head, couldn’t remember its name for a while, had to look for it…
Heart Of Glass – Blondie, Philip Glass (Crabtree Remix)
16 January 2019
Uncertainty…
A difficult part of the human condition. A particularly difficult one for me, always eager to have some peace in the calm waters of certainty…
Goodnight, Travel Well – The Killers
18 December 2018
It’s the last song of the year, the last song we’ll add to the playlist in 2018, and quite a special one.
It’s a perfect moment to reflect on endings, today of all days, tonight of all nights, because for some reason endings have resonated strongly with me today, to the point of bringing tears to my eyes without an apparent reason…
Cards On A Bicycle – Ghost Suns
4 December 2018
This week we’ve got another powerful track that was submitted to us on musicto.com. A special journey that resonates throughout the different layers of memory…
