Last couple of weeks I’m listening mostly to “Ojos De Brujo” . Their music is very passionate, energetic, rejuvenating. I’m not an expert in basically any kind of music, usually can just tell if I like it or not (hehe, musical school doesn’t change this situation even a tiny bit), so forgive me for quoting one of the reviews, which I found on internet:

Ojos de Brujo is a flamenco roots band based in Barcelona, Spain. The band caused a stir in international music circles in 2003-2004 with its mesmerizing hip hop flamenco. The group, whose name means “Eyes of the Wizard,” creates musical magic with its irresistible sound that blends flamenco with hip-hop, funk, samba, reggae and other world musics. One of Spain’s most popular live musical acts, the group is composed of musicians on flamenco guitar, bass, and percussion; a DJ, and a dancer, and features the compelling lead vocals of Marina Abad. Says Xavi Turull, the group’s percussionist: “We live in Barcelona and we live strong - always out in the streets, so we�ve always lived rumba catalana and flamenco puro really strongly. But when Marina came into the group, we became even more focused on the flamenco. Our roots got stronger and we became more confident when we experimented with other styles. We became more solid - more of a band.”

I greatly recomment this band to everybody, because it’s impossible not to be bewitched by those Eyes of the Wizard…

Аленик, не узнал - быть тебе богатой.

Думал, очередная звезда, мегазорка, которых и так на каждой обложке пруд-пруди, а тут - она, настоящая!

Это всё, наверное, от твоей работы. Посетитель заходит, говорит, а покажите мне вон то или это. А Аленик ему - а накося тебе, - отсюда у таланта и ноги растут.

Ожидаем продолжение показательных фотографий, переговоры с группой \”Ojos De Brujo\” о написании внеочередного альбома, для вдохновения Аленика уже ведутся.
