Influences: Music that takes you places or makes you feel and believe in something, even if you don't understand the language. Beautiful melodies.
My own musical influences are: The Beatles, Prince, PJ Harvey, Ween, Stereo Lab, Sarah McLachlin, David Bowie, Bob Marley, playing in my school orchestra for 8 years, Moby, Lush, Tori Amos, early Janet (miss Jackson if ur nasty..!), Smashing Pumkins, Radiohead, Built To Spill, The Smiths, Doves, Elastica, Ely Guerra, Elliot Smith, Bjork, Stars, Coldplay, Sinead O'Conner, Siouxsie and the Banchees, Cowboy Junkies, Depeche Mode, New Order, Pat Benitar, The Cure, many more 80's bands, my first exposure to live music. My mama and papa..and much much more...it's ever evolving..
Movies that help me experience pleasure, therefore helping my chances in writting and being productive: Eternal Sunshine of the Spottless Mind, American Beauty, The Shawshank Redemption, The Lost Boys, Stranger Than fiction, Better Off Dead. I could watch those movies a thousand times.
Sounds Like: ALMOST ROSARIO -
Pop rock songs arranged around more often minor chords. Although we're broadening our sound right now, so stay tuned...
ALLA-
German Krautrock experiments, Motown, Brazilian Tropicalia and cosmic jazz to lush romantic harmonies of traditional Mexican trio music and to Brian Wilson & Phil Spector's symphonic pop nuggets of the '60s... a soundscape of many colors.
Record Label: ALLA is on Crammed Discs // A.R.-Groupie Records
Type of Label: Indie
