Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Pump It Up

Today I think I listened to Costello “seriously” for the first time. I feel like there have been more phases or at least two...
One I kind of like, this one... that sappy one is terrible.

Sátántangó — Tarr Béla, 1994. Opening Scene. The cows.

I accidentally discovered a great Hungarian writer, László Krasznahorkai. For about ten days, I've been reading what should be his debut work, Sátántangó. It's been a long time since pages have struck and unsettled me as much. Articulate sentences that envelop you and leave you breathless. Literature is important.

"Not only could he no longer leave, but he didn't even want to leave now, because at least there he could huddle in the shadows of his usual visions, while outside, beyond the establishment, who knows what would be waiting for him."

The monumental film by Béla Tarr was adapted from the book.

And why they rightly had the world at their feet for a while, but critics and indie snobs always turned their backs (I was among those turned away, but fortunately I later saw the light...)

Gate - The Blurred Tree [Experimental] This type of music, minimalism, is what usually gives me the most pure feeling of music in the most genuine sense of the term. I don’t quite know how to say it... often the mannered programmatic nature and even the slightest hint of effort I find in a work make it feel counterfeit, marred, and false; whereas works like this represent a tiny part of music, but they embody it in such a bare and essential form that it’s like perceiving the entirety at once. Like the crack in a wall, the fissure in a rock (which allows, even if just a little, to see its true interior).

5. Electrified Tabula Rasa
Just a year after Linea gotica, the Csi return from a journey to Mongolia with a handful of great songs. The sound becomes harder, much more rock compared to its predecessors. The beginning already sets the tone for the entire work, with the triplet formed by Unità di produzione, a true manifesto of surrender, Brace with a very particular musical structure, and the ultra-famous Forma e sostanza. And the rest of the album reaches even higher and more unique peaks. An example? The almost entirely instrumental Gobi, with choirs that bring back to mind that Latin soul that Battisti wanted to use in one of his albums. But also the powerful Vicini, the spiritual Ongii, and the cautious Bolormaa are fundamental pieces for this album. It all concludes with the thought-provoking Accade, the brief Matrilineare, and Mimporta na sega, a piece that seems light but isn't really so. In short, this TRE is yet another masterpiece signed by Csi, this time with more drive and greater attention to the "form" of the pieces.

MR. G ALREADY KNEW EVERYTHING....
An exploration of Gaber's body of work, amidst his prophecies/distopias that have sometimes ominously come true and the sidelong visions of all our lives, between daily habits and quirks, miseries and aspirations, the political and the personal.
We take it from the beginning of the second part of his career, the one in which, in a different time, he brought the texts, his own and those of Sandro Luporini, on endless theatrical tours throughout Italy, where the audience would also intervene as was customary back then, standing up and sharing their thoughts, sometimes in open opposition to the artist, who would respond and sometimes come out battered, sometimes not. Now it seems preferable to give a like on Feisbucc or to become a hater, since it appears that nobody expresses anything anymore in public, limiting themselves to hiding behind a nickname or a pseudonym.
I occasionally find myself wondering what he would think about this or that issue; sometimes I would really be curious to know, so...

MR. G KNEW IT ALL...
An excursus through Gaber's production, between his prophecies/dystopias that later turned out to be disturbingly true and the sideways visions of all our lives, between daily habits and quirks, miseries and aspirations, the political and the personal.
We pick up from the beginning of the second part of his career, a time when he took his own texts and those of Sandro Luporini on endless theatrical tours across Italy, where the audience would also participate as they used to back then, standing up and voicing their opinions, even in open opposition to the artist who would respond, sometimes emerging worse for wear and other times not. Now it seems more common to give him a like on Feisbucc or become a hater of his, given that it seems no one expresses anything in public anymore, limiting themselves to hiding behind a nickname or a pseudonym.
Sometimes I find myself wondering what he would think about this or that event; honestly, I would sometimes be curious to know, so...
