Arcade Fire, his work on the soundtrack of "Hunger Games" and the portrait of Haiti

There are few theatrical releases that are reaching the media coverage of "Hunger Games", brought to celluloid adaptation of the novel by Suzanne Collins ("Underland Chronicles"). This is the bet that Hollywood has done with this film that its soundtrack is composed of a luxury tracklist composed of some of the best international band of the moment. One is Arcade Fire, training has contributed a total of two themes - 'Abraham's Daughter' and 'Horn Of Plenty' to the soundtrack of the film by Gary Ross.

Both songs are very different. While 'Abraham's Daughter' is a dark piece characterized by a spooky atmosphere and a gloomy chorus, 'Horn Of Plenty' sounds like an ideal subject for an epic Feature Score. In fact not surprising at all that the composer James Newton Howard assist Canadians to record this song: perhaps the style of the composition is closer to the works of James than of Win Butler's band.

Yesterday we also read through the geniuses Pitchfork "The Suburbs" have risen to a video network which captures his experience in Haiti. Many people are likely unaware of the facet joint and several members of Arcade Fire but the fact is that musicians have made ​​every campaign - donations to charities, speeches at universities, etc ... - to help the poorest citizens of the country of Antilles.

That good intentions are never missing in the heart of this magnificent formation. No wonder they have a magic that makes them unique and different from the rest.

[Interview with] Beach Beach, spring 2012

Pau Riutort and Tomeu Mulet are soul and mind behind the group Mallorcan Beach Beach. A few days ago have released their first LP entitled 'Tasteless' (The Castanya, 2012). Rarely has a debut album had generated so much excitement in such a short time. The Peninsula has been a surprise to find these guys, and the noise generated due to the good manners that they assume these guys. While on the island of Mallorca surprised no one has seen the phenomenon, for Beach Beach since 2006 are turning around, giving many concerts, and their debut album was highly anticipated as the arrival of Mr. Marshall.

Pau and Tomeu seem shy guys, a few words. His youth is obvious. But the brief appearance of speech is just that, appearance. They like things that generate speech and above all music parley. They are enthusiastic. Music lovers spent on digging bud cookies. We talked to them hours before their first gig to promote the record, the Jazz Cava de Vic Place illusion makes them special touch. As the tour that lies ahead. "We really want to do concerts. When you take a hard what you want is to teach people not only come out in blogs and magazines reviewed, but a live show, where the group truly demonstrate that you are "says Pau. Her dream becomes visible with only a glance. Explain the details of direct, small adjustments have been applied to his songs and the body of his set, which of course will build on this first album. A job that has generated much excitement, for what is expected of them, and quickly made a gap between the world of music writing. When asked whether this factor will generate pressure, Tomeu said: "Appear outlined in various media we generate a pressure, but an honor, especially coming from where we came from, and we are very proud of what we pass these things. Also, here on the Peninsula, we knew the people. However people do in Mallorca we had as a group setting, with a background and some baggage. The point was to make a step further and came to Barcelona to give us better known and have had regular gigs on the island. "We can say that all this turmoil was not divine appearance, and they themselves tell us how were responsible for promote their first references llegándolas to sell up in Japan, completely handmade. Persistence usually juicy fruit.

Beach Beach seems to have things clear. They want to release albums and concerts. Pieces like this fabulous vitalists 'Tasteless'. A catalog of vertigo led by energetic guitar beats and catchy melodies. A pleasant and complex mix of new age and pop noise of the first crop nineties. Refreshing sounds and songs, about three minutes, and set fees. On what sounds and how it has made this record, the Mallorcan speak boldly, releasing a clear will to do things. Music live intensely, as work and career background. To shoot the album's sound Tomeu says: "On the sound is a mixture of the bands that have always had reference, more than what we were hearing at that time. Since we made the record, our first album, which is always a target of a group, we wanted to make a compilation of all and choose the most fit. "To which Pau, following signs to emphasize affirmative head, adds "Basically we had some ideas, structured with a reference of guitar, and from there we were adding instruments. And in reference to sound, we like to make references to what we like. Take parts of songs that inspire us. Not to copy the sound but to get the nod, because our record sounds modeled not to any other, it is perceived that intention. For example, one can say that is a brilliant record in the sense of light, but the guitars are very sharp, a sharp off, we got a recording with amplifiers of the 60's. We build each song as she herself asked us. "

Artistic beauty of the speaker of the songs as entities in themselves, with suggestions and requests to its composer. Gabby's perspective feels real thrill when you teach about music. Beach Beach wicked sound fresh and musical references speak for them. Any Trouble, My Bloody Valentine or Superchunk are some of the bands coming out of his mouth with great ease and pleasant. Names of music. Nouns explain much by themselves, they give off the scent. As his label, The Castanya of which they speak with weakness and gratitude. In the games played with them and their way of working, where is the first fan that employer. "The Castanya is a small label, but it is a label that believes in what he does, he likes what he does. Are dedicated to making pineapple in their groups. We are a family, a group of friends, "says Tomeu. To which he adds Pau "is a label that needs taking care, and groups who have know what they need. If you need to do the vinyl edition, as do vinyl. And things like producing a limited edition colored vinyl are things that make them retail. They are also people who move a lot to get you gigs. If you want to work, they respond. "

At this point, then, we find a good band, musicians refined taste, a thick bunch of very good songs and a custom-made label. This combination leads to a bright and good news. How to participate in this year's Primavera Sound, and also in the Pitchfork stage. When I explain how I get the news and Tomeu Pau can not help drawing a broad smile on his lips. "A mixture of nerves and enthusiasm. The Primavera Sound is the Camp Nou in the festivals "Tomeu judgment. Vein is when they run out fan definitely, and the interview is diluted quietly as they begin to enumerate a long list of artists who do not think losing in late May at the Parc del Forum, after they have done their work on stage.
