Σε περιμένω το άλλο καλοκαίρι: GTX presents ... Summer 2013
Φίλε Άλε, σου στέλνω δώρο διπλή αντιηλιακή συλλογή, για να την ακούς εκεί που λιάζεις κι αλατίζεις την κορμάρα σου και ρίχνεις τις απλωτές σου, και να μας σκέφτεσαι εδώ στην ξενιτιά (εντάξει προς το παρόν κι εδώ καλοκαίρι έχουμε). Στην έχω βάλει στο ψυγείο, αλλά αν στην ζητάνε στα μπιτσόμπαρα δως τους το λινκ.
Girls in Hawaii / Everest
Ιδού και ολόκληρο το album des Belges σε limited edition.
Εμπεριέχει και τούτο:
Άκου τώρα να δεις τι παίζει μ'αυτό:
The story of Girls in Hawaii
has gone to some dark places in since the formation of the band in 2001
by Antoine Wielemans and Lionel Vancauwenberghe in 2001. They released
their debut, From Here to There in 2004, but came dangerously close to getting burned out whilst touring its follow-up.
The title of Plan Your Escape became a self-fulfilling prophecy for the band – a quartet comprised of two sets of siblings, completed by Antoine’s brother Denis and Lionel’s brother Brice. They were looking for a way out; they took time off, and Denis started a hip-hop side-project called Hallo Kosmo. Then, he was killed in a car crash on the way home from a gig in 2010, and the band almost collapsed.
Antoine seemingly couldn’t carry on, but it was through his songs that the band found the strength to reconvene for Everest, a deeply personal, yet not necessarily downbeat, album that deals with loss, its aftermath and – most importantly – the will to live.
