It has been a while now. I was quiet busy lately, I am still but that’s no excuse I know. I have selected a few links I’ll like to share with you.
First I want to say that the Gentle didn’t win the finals of Limbomania 09. I really hoped they would manage to finish first, [...]

Last sunday Alessio and I decided to go to Köln. From our place almost two hours driving. We knew that The Dead Weather was playing in Köln, but we couldn’t manage to buy some tickets. Anyways we decided to take our chance and drive all the way to Germany.
Together with a couple of friends [...]

Oh yes this is it! Last saturday they announced the 10 finalists for Limbomania. A great relief for Alessio, Kevin, Jonathan and Marco because The Gentle was selected for the finals. You should definitely check this band out at the finals (where are you waiting for! c’mon). Navigate you a way to the Limbomania website [...]

Alessio, one-half of DTR, the less active part of it, is now going to be very active! My first post is about The Gentle.

Alessio has been spamming me the whole week with a song from Rick Danko. Rick Danko as the amazing musician with his great voice from The Band. You should hear this song!

follow me to David Gilmour’s island today! I found a couple of youtube movies in my favorites folder. Especially from his third solo album. It’s called “On an island” and it was released on 6th March 2006. I want to show you today 3 movies from the Abbey Road Studio. The songs are really amazing! [...]

I would like to introduce you to the Black cab sessions. This project exists a while now. I regulary check it on new sessions. Like the post title says, musicians or bands do one song in one take in one cab. It’s a cool concept. Maybe we should have something like this here in Belgium, [...]

This weeks video is one from patrick watson. The video is a live recording at the WNYC studios in New York City.
The band performs Beijing, Big Bird In A Small World and Wooden Arms. It is just amazing, sit back and enjoy!

Movie soundtracks can be so beautiful, well not only the soundtracks but also other songs or compositions used in movies. Last week I was watching The Illusionist and the compositions used in this movie are so amazing. It is also the first item in the list below.
