fuck McSpaced

yes you heard it! A US version of Spaced is in the works. Not only that but none of the creators of the Channel 4 series (Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson) are or will be involved in this (stupid) project.
They were basically ripped off and won't even get money for their trouble. Isn't that just insane?

Big corporations are so hypocritical. They blame people who download on the internet to steal from artists. They sue people pretending to defend the artists' rights when all they really care about is their profits. They are not ashamed to completely steal an artist work like Spaced.

Well FUCK MCSPACED!

how could i forget...

... to talk about SOGDIANA (my new favorite russian singer). She is from Uzbek origin. Like Zara, she participated in the russian version of Star Academy to boost her career and in february she released her first russian album "Serdtse-magnit". It's good, some songs are weaker than other (especially the ones with a eurodance production, that sucks) but the ones with middle-eastern feel are very good.

Here is how she sounds like (and looks like):

Sinee Nebo


Serdtse-magnit


Here are clips of some early uzbek songs:

Meni Esla


Sen Kelma

zara (not about clothes)

I haven't posted in a while. I have been busy with a new project that I hope will be successful. Anyway, in february I went back to Moscow and I discovered a new singer called Zara. Not unlike Jasmin (or any other pop singer in Russia) she married a wealthy man who bought a career for his loving wife.

I like her. In the past, she made some disturbing covers of Fernando by Abba, that Titanic song from Celine Dion or even the Godfather theme...

Her last album "Ya ne Ta" is better than you could expect and I have fallen for her.
Here is what it sounds like:

Zamela Zima


Valse
