| I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4 Para FLOW, "Lo normal" es reinventarse y aparecer de nuevo cuando nadie se lo espera. "Lo normal" para FLOW es concebir un disco como un meltin' pot de estilos variados que, pasados por su filtro, adquieren sentido y coherencia. Lo hicieron en el 2000 con "Sensazione", y lo vuelven a conseguir en 2006: con "Lo normal" vuelven unos FLOW totalmente renovados, con una creatividad que se desborda en multiples direcciones y con un aroma a clasico que sabe a gloria. La renovacion afecta tambien esta vez a la formacion: el disco lo grabaron Fernando Vacas, Juano Belmonte y Manuel Espinosa, nucleo del grupo desde sus inicios. Pero tras la llorada desaparicion de este ultimo, y tras considerar incluso la posibilidad de aparcar el proyecto, el grupo renace desde cero con nuevas incorporaciones y el ilusionante empuje de su propio sello, Eureka. Un acierto porque Fernando Vacas se confirma en este disco como el grandisimo productor que es, ademas de encargarse de unos estupendos arreglos de cuerda y viento. Para explicar la enorme cantidad de ideas musicales que convergen aqui, lo mejor es empezar por el final y escuchar "Se va el avion", una sinfonia pop en tres movimientos que comienza entre Sparks y Spacemen 3, continua como una remezcla de DFA, y finaliza con un pasaje de piano a lo Satie. Un eclectisismo inabarcable que, sin embargo, tiene toda la coherencia del mundo. Estamos ante un disco de canciones, que luego se van vistiendo con diferentes trajes y sofisticados complementos: folk, psicodelia, pop, rock, jazz, disco, funk. Entre "Nos separa un taxi", un tema pop de corte afrancesado, y "Cras, cras, cras...", instrumental, libre y desquiciado, puede haber una distancia insalvable o simplemente unos pasos que nadie se atreve a dar. Excepto FLOW, claro. Para ellos esto es "Lo normal". "Lo normal" para FLOW, es que a la gente le apasione la musica y este dispuesta a experimentar un dia y a divertirse sin pretensiones al siguiente. Lo normal es que se tararee despreocupadamente una meloda a lo Pavement ("Trio Lalal") y que luego vibre el intelecto con un homenaje a clasicos de culto como Van Dyke Parks o Jim O'Rourke ("Por L'Hopital"). Si Arquimedes levantara la cabeza y escuchara "Lo normal", seguro que gritaria: Eureka! ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------ For FLOW, "Lo Normal" ("The Usual") is to reinvent themselves and to turn up when everyone least expects it. "Lo Normal" for Flow is conceiving a record into a melting pot of varied styles that, by passing through their own special filter, gather meaning and coherency. They did it in 2000 with "Sensazione" and they do it again in 2006. With "Lo Normal", Flow return totally renewed, with a creativity that 'overflows' in many different directions yet maintains the familiar, glorious taste of a classic. The renovation of Flow extends in this record with a new lineup. It was originally recorded by Fernando Vacas, Juano Belmonte and Manuel Espinosa, the heart of the group since Flow began. But after the tragic departure of the latter, the group considered calling it quits. But starting from scratch with new band members, new ideas and a new enthusiasm, and encompassing the launch of their own record label, Eureka Music, Flow was reborn. And this is lucky for us, as we now can further enjoy and sample the talents of Eurekas main producer and arranger, Fernando Vacas. To explain the enormous quantity of musical ideas that converge on this record, its best to start from the end: listen to "Se va el avion", a pop symphony in 3 movements, that begins somewhere in between Sparks and Spacemen 3, and continues on like a DFA remix, finishing with a piano passage a la Satie. An immense eclecticism that somehow seems to make all the sense in the world, this is a song driven record, whose songs take on different shapes and sizes throughout: folk, psychodelia, pop, rock, jazz, disco and funk. Between 'Nos Separa un taxi', a short, french flavoured pop gem, and 'Cras, cras, cras', a loose and unhinged instrumental, there can be any variety of distances travelled. For Flow, "Lo Normal" is that music lovers are ready and willing to experiment one day, and yet can still have carefree fun the next day. For example, "Lo Normal" is to unwittingly hum a Pavement-like tune ('Trio LalaLa'), as much as it is to get intellectually stimulated by homage to cult class heroes such as Van Dyke Parks or Jim ORourke ('Por LHopital'). If Archimedes raised his head and listened to "Lo Normal", he surely would shout, Eureka! Watch the video forSiempre Alicia Add to My Profile | More Videos |
