 Tricoder constitutes a milestone in its genre, and its contribution may reveal itself better precisely years after its release.

 The voice always appears in orthogonal spaces: it is clean, orderly, 'hard'; so distinct that it seems almost to compete with the electronic sounds (only to then beat them).

Lali Puna's 'Tridecoder' is a technically accomplished and original debut album that marks a milestone in late-90s electronic music. Though less balanced than its successor, 'Scary World Theory,' it features brilliant electronic sounds and a captivating female voice. The album demands attentive, cerebral listening and contains the seeds of the band's future work. Despite some dryness and lack of homogeneity, it remains an indispensable piece for fans of experimental electronic music. Listen to Lali Puna's 'Tridecoder' and explore the roots of innovative electronic music evolution.

 Patton, in these passages, opened his creativity to the audience... so engrossed and intense, so serene and naive.

 The third album by Led Zeppelin is without a doubt the most maligned by music critics.

 A record beautiful, very beautiful, so rich in inflections and artistic digressions that it does not deserve to be appreciated by those who cannot understand it.

Led Zeppelin III is one of the band's most misunderstood and maligned albums despite its artistic depth and innovation. Recorded in a secluded Welsh cottage, it blends hard rock with acoustic and blues influences. The album features complex song structures and a shift from powerful drums to softer, introspective sounds. Tracks like 'Immigrant Song' and 'Tangerine' illustrate its richness. This work paved the way for later masterpieces like 'Stairway to Heaven' and deserves more appreciation. Explore Led Zeppelin III and experience one of rock's richest and most innovative albums.
