hay Pollo (iChicken)

I’m really starting to doubt the quality of some Ads agency. If client says; “Wow, I like that Apple ads, can you make me one”, your answer shouldn’t be “Of course, how many?”. I saw this Ad few days ago on the streets of Mexico City. There are several blogs (spanish) talking about this ad published all over the Mexico.

Cut Copy rocked in Mexico City

Definitely one of the best concerts I attended lately. Yesterday evening, Cut Copy (Melbourne, Australia) rocked the place (Vive Cuervo Salón) out. People, about 1k met in this not-so-big place, they danced, jumped and sang. It was really great. I wrote a short article about them in May of last year, hoping they will come soon.

Cut Copy is a synthpop band from Melbourne, Australia made up of Dan Whitford (lead vocals/keys/guitar), Tim Hoey (bass/guitar) and Mitchell Scott (drums).

Their sound is much in the vein of contemporaries such as Daft Punk, drawing considerable influence from older bands such as New Order, Electric Light Orchestra and Kraftwerk.

They started the concert with last album "In Ghost Colours" and mixing some old song with new ones. They were very animated, dancing on the stage etc. The concert took place for an hour, which is really short, but, I don't regret going.

Uneducated ones

Even new anti-smoking law is on the clock in Mexico, at the start we enjoyed clean air inside, but as always, there some guys and girls that didn't learn to read big signs all over the place "No Fumar", so, if you're one of them, try to read this : "Learn to read, puto!".

Cut Copy, you rock!

Respect: How to scratch on a double cassette tape!

I saw many crazy scratching, but this guy decided to go further with that. He took some old cassette player and with his fingers started breaking beats!

Cut Copy: In Ghost Colours

If you are a fan of Daft Punk, Pet Shop Boys and all that kind of rhythms, great, Cut Copy is another band for your electropop/indie rock/retro collection.

Coming from Melbourne, Australia, Dan Whitford (lead vocals/keys/guitar), Tim Hoey (bass/guitar) and Mitchell Scott (drums) already have 3 albums, 3 EPs and 7 Singles, and the last album "In Ghost Colours" is very good. It has slow moments, great for relaxing, or fast ones with great beat and instrumental...
