This is not a country from which you'd expect miracles except in the revolutionary sense, like having your AK-47 jam as you're face to face with a reactionary capitalist pig and then it fixes itself and works-- thank god for that trusty Russian engineering. (And of course, we all know Kalashnikov its inventor as the greatest Russian who ever lived, bar none.) Back to ex-ally Cuba though. They had the famous fusion band called Sintesis (or Grupo Sintesis) which probably everyone knows already-- not to be confused with the Argentinian band of the same name and the same style in the same decade, see here. This album is full of great ideas, very much unlike their founding father Fidel. The composer is clearly highly educated, highly competent, and has a wonderful flair for mixing popular ideas with more advanced composition, consider the first track, El corazon sobre la tierra:
A very enjoyable propaganda indeed.

Apart from the music, for which I'm grateful, I have to say that lately I'm having trouble scrolling through your blog. I'm experiencing mouse delays and bumps as well as page refusal to smoothly scroll up and down. Even writing these remarks is a pain in the ass. Is it me or somebody else has the same impression? Anyway, no worries and thanks for everything!
ReplyDeletethis has to do with the things on the right margin and the number of posts 'per page', they take too long to load, I can fix the issues on the weekend or maybe just improve it a bit for you
