SCHELLING JA ENS HAVIA ADVERTIT: LA TRISTESA ES INSEPARABLE DE QUALSEVOL VIDA FINITA (LA NOSTRA, LA VOSTRA, LA DE TOTS ELS HUMANS), PERO AQUESTA TRISTESA NO ACABA MAI PER SER REAL, SINO QUE SERVEIX, PARADOXALMENT, PER A UN ETERN PLAER: EL DE LA SUPERACIO.SEMBLA QUE ELS NOSTRES DIES NO SON ELS MES ADIENTS PER A LA SUPERACIO, PER AL PLAER DE L’ESFOR.. CONSTANT I MENYS ENCARA PER LA TRANSPARENCIA I RIGOR EN EL PENSAMENT. TOT SEMBLA OBEIR A UN CONSTANT ANAR I VENIR ON EL QUE AVUI ES “Aâ€, DEMA POT SER “B†I DEMA PASSAT, VES A SABER, SI NO SERA “Zâ€...LA MUSICA, EN AQUEST CONTEXT, HA QUEDAT DELEGADA A CONVERTIR-SE EN UN SIMPLE OBJECTE DE CONSUM I NOMES AIXI PODEM COMPRENDRE LA PROLIFERACIO DE TANTA CAN..ONETA EN EL NOSTRE PANORAMA MUSICAL ON TOT NO ES MES QUE SIGNE DE L’ANORREAMENT COL•LECTIU A TRAVES DE L’ACCEPTACIO ACRITICA I DOCIL D’UN SISTEMA DESTINAT NOMES A LA POSESSIO D’UN PISET, EL COTXE, L’ALT CONSUM I EL/LA COMPANY/A. LA RECERCA DE NOUS MODELS D’ORGANITZACIO SOCIAL O, SIMPLEMENT, LA RECERCA INSACIABLE DE NOVES MANERES DE VIURE I D’ENTENDRE EL NOSTRE PAS PER LA VIDA SEMBLEN HAVER-SE ESFUMAT PER SEMPRE MES ENMIG DE LA IDIOTESA GENERALITZADA.HO SABEM. NO SON TEMPS DE REVOLTA. SON TEMPS D’HIPOTECA I DE PENSAMENT UNIC. ASSISTIM IMPERTERRITS A LA MORT DELS GRANS IDEALS (DEU, LA REVOLUCIO, LA CONSCIENCIA DE CLASSE), PERO ALGU DES DE LA TRISTESA QUE ENCAP..ALAVA AQUESTES LINIES ENCARA CREU AMB ELS VALORS NO POSTISSOS I VERITABLES. LA CULTURA I LA MUSICA NO PODEN LIMITAR-SE A SER SIMPLES I MERS OBJECTES DE CONSUM I HAN DE SER ASSUMIDES PER LA SOCIETAT COM UN PATRIMONI PROPI I HAN DE TENIR UN PAPER CLAU EN AQUESTA TRANSFORMACIO SOCIAL.TUPOLEV (LLUIS RIERA, BAIX; KEVIN URBANEJA, BATERIA; JORDI SANCHEZ, GUITARRA; GABRIEL DIAZ, VEU I ORIOL P..REZ I TREVINYO, TEXTS), DES DE LA INDEPENDENCIA I L’HONESTEDAT ARTISTICA, NO VOL SER MES QUE UN PETIT GRA DE SORRA PERQUE ALLO QUE PODRIEM ANOMENAR COM VALOR PER LA VERITAT TORNI DE NOU A ERIGIR-SE COM UN REFERENT I AJUDI ALS HOMES I DONES DELS NOSTRES DIES A MILLORAR LA DIGNITAT DE LA SEVA ACTUAL POSICIO. PER A FER-HO, HO SABEM, CALDRAN MECANISMES QUE ULTRAPASSIN EL CONTEXT DEL POLITICAMENT CORRECTE. PERO SI AQUEST, EN VERITAT, FOS EL REGULADOR DE LA PROPOSTA DE TUPOLEV, A BEN SEGUR QUE AQUESTA MAI HAGUES EXISTIT. ORIOL PEREZ I TREVINYO
TUPOLEV
TUPOLEV IS THE LAST PROJECT OF LLUIS RIERA, GABRIEL DIAZ (EX-CHILL OUT, EX-SAPO), JORDI SANCHEZ (EX-CHILL OUT) AND KEVIN URBANEJA (EX-MINDFUL), TOGETHER WITH ORIOL PEREZ I TREVIÑO (LYRICS). TUPOLEV GIVES US A SET OF SONGS LOADED WITH SOCIAL CRITICISM AND SOCIAL COMPLAINT. HOWEVER,NOT SATISFIED ENOUGH WITH THIS, SOME LYRICS POSTULATE AN AIR LOADED MISTICISM AND COOLNESS.

SHELLING HAD ALREADY ADVISED US: SORROW IS INSEPERABLE FROM ANY FINITE LIFE (OURS, YOURS, ANY HUMAN’S), BUT THIS SORROW NEVER ENDS UP BECOMING REALITY, BUT IT’S USEFUL, PARADOXICALLY, FOR THE ETERNAL PLEASURE: IMPROVEMENT.IT SEEMS TO BE THAT THESE DAYS ARE NOT THE MOST SUITABLE ONES FOR IMPROVEMENT, PLEASURE OF THE CONSTANT EFFORT AND LESS IT POINTS TO THE TRANSPARENCY AND RIGOR.
IT ALL SEEMS TO OBEY TO A CONSTANT COME AND GO WHERE WHAT TODAY IS A, MAY BE B TOMORROW, AND WHO KNOWS, THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW IT MIGHT BE Z.MUSIC, IN THIS CONTEXT, HAS COME OFF TO BECOME A SIMPLE OBJECT OF CONSUMPTION AND ONLY IN THIS WAY CAN WE UNDERSTAND THE PROLIFERATION OF SO MANY STUPID SONGS IN OUR MUSICAL PANORAMA WHERE EVERYTHING IS NOTHING MORE THAN A SIGN OF THE COLLECTIVE DESTRUCTION THROUGH THE ACRITICAL AND DOCILE ACCEPTANCE OF A SYSTEM DESTINED ONLY FOR THE POSSESSION OF A FLAT, A CAR, OR THE HIGH CONSUMPTION OR THE PARTNER. THE RESEARCH OF NEW MODELS OF SOCIAL ORGANIZATION OR MORE SIMPLY PUT, THE INSATIABLE RESEARCH OF NEW WAYS OF LIFE AND OF OUR UNDERSTANDING OF THE STEPS IN LIFE THAT SEEM TO HAVE FADED AWAY FOREVER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE GENERALIZED IDIOCY.WE KNOW IT IS NOT TIME FOR RIOTS. IT IS TIME FOR MORTGAGE AND UNIQUE THOUGHT. WE IMPERTURBABLY ATTEND THE DEATH OF THE GREAT IDEALS (GOD, THE REVOLUTION, THE CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS), BUT SOMEONE FROM THE SORROW THAT HEADED THESE LINES STILL BELIEVES IN THE NON FAKE AND TRUE VALUES. CULTURE AND MUSIC CAN NOT BE LIMITED TO BEING SIMPLE AND MERE OBJECTS OF CONSUMPTION AND IT MUST BE ASSUMED BY SOCIETY LIKE THEIR OWN PATRIMONY AND IT MUST HAVE A KEY ROLE IN THIS SOCIAL TRANSFORMATION.TUPOLEV (LLUÃS RIERA, BASS; KEVIN URBANEJA, DRUMS; JORDI SÀNCHEZ, GUITAR; GABRIEL DÃAZ, VOCALS AND ORIOL PÉREZ I TREVIÑO, LYRICS), FROM THE INDEPENDENCE AND THE ARTISTIC HONESTY, DOES NOT WANT TO BE MORE THAN A SMALL GRAIN OF SAND SO THAT, WHAT WE COULD CALL A TRUE VALUE, COMES BACK AGAIN TO ERECT ITSELF AS A REFERENT AND HELP ALL MEN AND WOMEN OF OUR DAYS TO IMPROVE THE DIGNITY OF THEIR UP-TO-DATE POSITION.IN ORDER TO MAKE IT KNOWN, MECHANISMS THAT SURPASS THE CONTEXT OF THE POLITICALLY CORRECT WILL BE NECESSARY. BUT, IF THIS REALLY WAS THE REGULATOR OF TUPOLEV’S PROPOSAL, YOU CAN BE SURE THAT THIS HAS NEVER EXISTED BEFORE.
