Among our historical songwriters Francesco Guccini is perhaps the most sympathetic, with his always be available to people who follow him and decisively away from the logic of marketing. So, very quiet, the teacher is running Modena in Italy a few tour dates per month and disks without having to be promoted (the last “Portraits” dates back to 2004). The latest news speak of his work on a new novel and simultaneously to a new disk, which seems to have prepared some pieces.

Max Manfredi is the classic example of a musician beloved by critics and poorly rewarded by the public, at least in terms of sales. For years, brings forward some ‘on the sidelines, his work of American fine and ironic. Sometimes ruthless, always battle, his writing and his eyes author disenchanted rest on human feelings, history and society of yesterday and today. His previous album often contain insights and flash of the original artist and intellectual almost brazen, I have to admit I had never really won.

This new disc instead I was immediately struck, and not just for the thrill of hearing the voice of Fabrizio De Andre, in duet in “La Maddalena proud of” bonus single-track and re-edited piece among many new songs. The title is “Lost Moon” and will be in stores by Friday, Sept. 26.

A collection that is the result of research and passion irreverent, with one dose of cynicism which is good for people to trade is an observer and narrator of these (sad) times. A disc important, it would be a shame to get only those who already knows and frequents the music Manfredi.

The Dari (or Dari) we saw them everywhere, for months, with quell’inno the banality of music that is “Wale (Both Wale)”, whose video was able to reach 1400000 views on Youtube. No wonder that their look from “emo” (nothing to do with emo fifteen years ago, just to clarify) takes the upper hand in the hearts of young girls, on texts from middle school and that their mix guitars, pseudo-punk rhythms and cheap electronic clutches.

Now, just as it would be smart not to take a moment of such media visibility, we propose their debut album, entitled, curiously, “Vacuum generation.”

The album, released officially on 12 September for EMI, has managed to debut at position 10 in the ranking Italian FIMI, which ultimately result is not surprising given the success that had recently bands such as the target Finley or Tokio Hotel .

At the last edition of “Friends” the boys sang “One thousand ce la ago.” In a reality have it done (then we want to understand how much) and his name is Marco Charter, but the horizon seems to approach a new post-hurricane reality after Giusy Ferreri, put under contract by major “Sony BMG” We are speaking of “Matisse”, a group of 4 boys made up Fabio (vocals) and Robert (under “rap”), both alumni of the National Mary, and Vincenzo (batteries) and Francis (piano / keyboards). This is not a new and simple boy band because the guys really seem to get well, writing and producing songs with their own hands.

The result is all things good, although many will storch the nose because their sound is reminiscent of what dell’onnipresente Timbaland, despite this are like a lot, because even hear a thing of its kind in Italian great pleasure. In any case, the new band seems to have recovered so successful because just visit their Myspace to understand that the people of the Internet really appreciates them both.

Are you curious? Well: beccatevi their first video shoot for the song “How can you” from a few days on votabile Trl (MTV).

Jovanotti, 20-year career. The September 15 on the official site Soleluna was celebrated with a very special video (which we are displaying a result of post) the twentieth anniversary of successes and music with the legendary Lorenzo Cherubini.

We ask you today to vote your favorite song among the 12 proposed in our survey. Do you think that in this twenty-year Jovanotti has produced 17 albums, a year except 1993,’96 and’98. Incredible. How many memories.

The news on the new album of original Laura Pausini run for months (Soundsblog if they already occupied, click here and here for the arrears), a clear sign of the great expectations of fans and media around her who can be defined l ‘ nostrana artist most loved and appreciated (… and sold!) in the world.

After so many assumptions and advances more or less reliable hours were official date of issue and under the successor of “Stay listening”, dating all’oramai far 2004: Time x scoccherà next November 8, the title chosen is “Spring in advance “. The label is Warner / Atlantic. There are still no news regarding the debut single, we know that production and recording of cuts took place between Italy, Great Britain and the United States.

There’s a lot of waiting for the fourth album by Tiziano Ferro, provisionally entitled “AME”, stands for three words still mysterious, as well as any other information on the new work of singer-songwriter of Latin America.

We know that the release date is set for November 7 (thanks mattejo!), As also announces the countdown on the official site. Intano a small anticipation comes from Mexico. Two members of pop group Rebelde-RBD (band just dissolved) participated in Madrid for refusal of a song by Titian. This is “El gift más grande” (The greatest gift).

The two girls, Dulce María and Anahí, have told that you have registered two versions of the song, a Spanish and an Italian. It said the song will be part of our new disc, work that should still make use of Roberto Casalino as co-author of the songs (the same with which he signed, among others, the “Non ti scordar di me ever” summit to all classifications of this summer).

Let the photos made for Maxim (it’s much more beautiful natural) to review “Natural Sound” Ilaria Porceddu, another name emerged from X Factor for his controversial character and its particular musical sensitivity. Listening to the disc, there are specific differences between the pieces: in all we see the commitment, the desire to be deep and thick. Un’elevazione, his, which does not accept. Unfortunately.

In 20 years, is crucial report to the public with a note of lightness. It should have taken less seriously. And ‘as if echeggiasse songs less commercial artists like Laura Pausini (place that make songs non-commercial) and L’Aura. Instead of proposing an album for research, offers made and finished. Even if it is not at all.

Item interesting, good arrangements. E ‘intention that lose intensity and emotion. Why Ilaria knows emotions, has shown more than once to X Factor. But it must be open to the public, speak their language and their emotions. And look, even herself. Then, our pagella.
