Madness, we have met once again.












I had a matchbox collection that I had been collecting for some time now, and they are in a box called 'treasure box'. I have everything that is memorable in there. Anyway the story is, these matchboxes that I found from kunsthauswien in Vienna are in them. They have amazing graphics of human imperfection that inspires me alot. I do not have a scanner so I can't scan them. But I did found some images on the internet, which wasn't a lot however you can find books on him on amazon. He was born in the 1940's. Date not well known. He was born in Austrian town. And I do wish there was more on info on him but they are mostly in deutsch. Here is some illustrations.

Amadou et Mariam Feat. M - Masitéladi (directors' cut) from laurent Gillot on Vimeo.

Here is a lil bit a lil bit a lil bit general info



I had a fantastic year of going to gigs. I was lucky enough to see Amadou and Miriam, Lykke Li, Metronomy, Orchestra Baobab, Noah and the whale, Belleruche, Oumou Sanagare, Vampire weekend (?) Emir Kusturica and the no smoking band, Chairlift, Michachu, Cock and Bull kid and some more i probablly cant remember now, and dont know the names of. I do wanna catch Fenech Soler sometime and i wouldnt mind going to the same concert twice. Anyway, I was going to upload some photos of Amadou and Miriam. Here is why I am crazy about them so much. Photos taken by me. Do not possess, I sincerely suggest.

Parov Stelar feat. Lllja Bloom-Shine





and the lyrics go like dis..

When our souls were introduced
No one of us could ever know
What we will be going through
Feeling high, feeling low 

Been in hell, been above
Cried for help, cried for love
And when darkness sleeps beside you
And the morning is far away
I wanna hold your hand and guide you

Out of hell, out of darkness
Finally we´re able to see
See the beauty not the beasts
One step further up at least
But one day

We will shine, we will shine
We will fly so high
We will shine, we will shine
We will fly so high
High 


thanks ego!
