Digressing about music: songs, dances, melodies, groups, films...

4th Entry - Digressing about music: songs, dances, melodies, groups, films...

As far as I can tell, I like almost every kind of music, so it's easier to me to tell which ones I don't: rancheras and reggaeton... But as I said, I listen to latin music, blues, gipsy jazz, from classical to metal, indie rock, hip hop, electronic, etc. I even like vaporwave, which is a music genre born in 2010. Vaporwave uses 60's, 70's and 80's music as base, slows it, and adds some tipical effects of electronic music (it's a really strange music).

I started to play the guitar this summer, but now, I don't have time because I'm always doing stuff for the university. I started playing some songs from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, like Scar Tissue, or Hey There Delilah, by Plain White T's. Anyway, now I use my brother's ukulele sometimes, and play classic songs like La Vie En Rose by Louis Armstrong, Those songs are quiet, and make me feel really relaxed.

The bands that I like most are Red Hot Chilli Peppers, The Beatles, Coldplay and Daft Punk. The singers are Luis Armstrong, Israel "IZ" Kamakawiwoʻole (a famous ukulele player), Jason Mraz and Eddie Vedder. I couldn't choose one or two between all those bands and singers... because my musical taste changes with my mood.

When I was younger, I really liked Daft Punk music. All started because of my father music taste, because he always listened this band (among others) and when he gifted me my first MP3, he loaded it with his music.

There is an album of Daft Punk called Discovery, which all of its music videos, put together, make a film called Interstella 5555. Also, I really like a movie called Into the Wild, where a young man gets lost in Alaska and tries to survive his fate. The original soundtrack of the movie was made by Eddie Vedder, and it truly transmits protagonist's feelings and mood.
