I am such a prude

I like things. I like many things. So many things… I like the way they pile up and they grow in numbers and explode and jump like flowing from a crazy spring of things. I like innervating the spring of things so it spits out more and more things. Sometimes I am totally uninspired, and I end up going back to the old pile of things I already like. Anyway, I always have my pile of things I can play with. I can count them, enjoy them and sometimes share them. I can calculate their worth and sell them all for nothing when I think it’s time. I can always get them all back just by playing a good old song I am not going to name. However, there is one thing I cannot do with my things: I cannot mix them with other people’s things. I am such a prude.

35 and still looking – looking stupid

No nameNo name
 
I love young people with an attitude. Whatever the attitude.
I love when people believe they are right. I love when young people think that they know everything and they can die contradicting you, beer in hand, until they forget why they were contradicting you.
We were all there.
We all went through stages of utter stupidity, stubbornness and indecisiveness.
We were in turns cute, depressed, interesting, and then boring to death.
The lucky ones learn from life, from their experiences and other people’s experiences.
The unlucky ones turn 35 and are still looking – looking stupid.

God Wrote (lyrics) – Project Pitchfork

No nameNo name

A dead world,
pollution,
heat waves,
poison in the air,
the flood comes,
war everywhere,
god wrote the fullstop.
Running to you,
as fast as I can,
I try to reach you – to save you,
to be with you the last time,
the last time before we die,
I try to reach you,
as fast as I can,
running to you – to save you,
to be with you the last time,
the last time before we die.
it´s too late,
to solve the problem,
deserts grow,
children die,
cities have been grown,
far too long,
this planet finally revolts,
against humanity,
the flood comes,
god wrote the fullstop.
god wrote the fullstop.

Raspunsuri melodioase

No nameNo name

Pentru cei interesati, am adaugat intrebarile la sfarsitul textului :).

1. Numeste o formatie sau un cantaret care nu-ti vine sa crezi ca ti-a placut cand erai mai tanar. 

Manowar! Nu am de ce sa ilustrez aceasta alegere, in nici un fel. As plictisi pe multi si as distra pe si mai multi, asa ca pastrez pentru mine…

2. Numeste o formatie sau un cantaret pe care o / il urai in tinerete si pe care acum o / il adori.

Pai nu exista… Nu am reusit sa urasc cantareti. Am „urat” melodii, si am ignorat multi artisti. Plus ca mi-am format gusturile din copilarie.

3. Numeste o formatie sau un cantaret care a trecut testul timpului, care iti place de la inceput si pana acum.

Depeche Mode si altii gen (Erasure, New Order, Camouflage etc).

4. Numeste un cantec caruia nu-i poti rezista si te apuca bataiala sau datul din picioare.

Orice piesa Depeche Mode! Imi canta inima in piept cand aud DM, oriunde, oricand…

5. Numeste un album de pe care iti place sa asculti fiecare melodie.

Ce-mi plac intrebarile la care raspund invariabil: Depeche Mode!!! Toate albumele lor, mai putin Ultra si Songs of Faith and Devotion de pe care ascult selectiv. Urmeaza multe albume ale trupelor din scena electro/goth: In Strict Confidence (La Parade Monstrueuse, Exile Paradise – albume excelente), And One, Rabia Sorda, Endanger, Project Pitchfork, Camouflage, Necro Facility, Covenant, Aesthetic Perfection si albumele altor multi, multi alti artisti underground, geniali si underrated, evident.

6. Numeste o formatie sau un cantaret de care esti atat de satul/a incat iti doresti sa nu mai auzi in veci de ea/el.

Atunci cand schimbam CD-urile in masina exista o pauza. In acea pauza, evident, se aud melodii de la radio. As dori sa comentez cate ceva despre artistii romani in voga, dar ma abtin. Nu e treaba mea! Incerc sa imi tin copilul departe de asa ceva si cred ca reusesc (ma felicit!).

7. Numeste o formatie sau un cantaret pe care partenerul tau sau prietenii o/il adora si tu nu-l poti suferi.

Gabi Lunca, asta doar de poanta, Robert stie!

8. Coverul tau preferat.

Orice cover Depeche Mode e binevenit. Nu pot sa nu remarc de fiecare data, insa, ca originalul nu poate fi egalat! Oricat ar fi el de bine realizat. Va las pe voi sa comparati:

cu

GUT!

9. Cantecul sau formatia preferata in secunda asta. Mi-a venit in minte Project Pitchfork:

cu memorabilul comentariu: He’s a very handsome woman!

(via Octavian de la Andreea) Cherrypick, Vivi, Boladenieve78 au fost nominalizati. Multumesc. A fost interesant. Sunt o baba.

Our most recent “preneur”: Viva Music

No nameNo name

In case you haven’t connected A to B yet, Octavian Logigan and I have worked together for almost 10 years. Our most recent “preneur” (I felt like using this quote from The Social Network) is Viva Music (promoter of industrial/electro music, founded 2008). Please Like our Facebook page and follow us on Twitter.

We believe in what we do, we show respect to our fans and partners, we work hard and we are always passionate and positive.

We run 3 websites (dedicated exclusively to the electro/industrial music scene): Viva Music, Darkwave.ro (Darkwave.ro Fest in Bucharest, interviews, reviews, news, international events, radio show, parties, etc) and Electronik.ro (electro concerts in Bucharest).

Since 2008 we have organized the following concerts and festivals:

Our photography website is almost ready! I have told you many times that one of my dreams is to have a place of our own where we can post our photographs, a place that can host the world as seen through a Nikon lens. Soon!

For the time being we are using Picasa, so if you want to take a look at the concert photographs, please go here.

It takes dedication and a lot of patience to carry on. It takes guts to do what we are doing. It takes time others spend with their families, sleeping, having fun, etc. It takes up chunks of our lives and the reward is most of the time missing. Thank God for grateful friends!

Why do we keep doing this? Because we think we should pursue our dream and quit only when we are sick or penniless. Until then, stay close. A star was born!
