Wolfang Electro Phoenix

Here we go again...Phoenix continue to surprise us; the french alternative rock band members decided to keep cultivating the electronic vein that has always characterized their sound, but in an even more extreme way: in these days they're presenting some track so distinctly electro, but yet so distinctly "phoenix", that, I'm sure, their fans are going to love!
One of these is Love Like a Sunset Pt. 3, the song that I'm presenting you in this post: markedly electro in the sound, it follows the trail of the electro tradition also because it has almost no lyrics (at least until minute 4); it reminds me pretty clearly of the soundtrack of the trailer of "Somewhere" by Sofia Coppola (Mrs. Thomas Mars, frontman of Phoenix) that I've presented you in a previous post...I hope you'll like it, 'cause I do!
P.s. While listening, if you feel that you're missing Thomas' voice, just go to minute 4..! I do it, too (sometimes...)!


Phoenix - "Love Like A Sunset, Pt. 3"

We love Sofia!

Francis Ford Coppola & Sofia

I know that I usually talk about music in this blog, but that doesn't mean that I can't present you some serious...some serious "stuff".

Some days ago I read about the new movie directed by Sofia Coppola. 

For those who don't know about her, she's the daughter of the legendary director Francis Ford Coppola, a world famous actress but most of all she's the first american woman in the history of The Academy Awards (the Oscars) to have been nominated for the Best Director award and to have won the Best Original Screenplay one. So I think you got how big it's to find out that her new movie is coming out...

Her new movie is called "Somewhere" and it's all about an A-class american movie star; one of those who live at the Chateau Marmont Hotel, doing sex, drugs & rock'n'roll...It might seem like the best (or the worst, depending on your taste) kind of life, but one day...one day Cleo comes in.

P.s. Just to tell you how this post is connected to music: Sofia Coppola has two daughters with Thomas Mars, who's the lead singer of Phoenix, who play the soundtrack of "Somewhere", while in the trailer you can listen to a demo song by The Strokes, called "I'll try anything once", a demo version of "You only live once".
