Infiné, easy music for the hard to please

Hola,

I am sitting by my window writting a few words for the In Finé blog and listening to the final master of Aufgang's Chanel 07 EP that is coming out from this same disquera. I was invited to do a remix, and finally ended up with two!, so i feel very happy, specially after a long hiatus in music production that i had... yes, that means trouble, travel, stress, romance, and what not. But as my mother once said: "recuerda hijo, hay que reir o llorar, pero nunca aburrirse!" please translate this little piece of mexican wisdom!. Right now i am working on my first album and a new project fot Static Discos, called Blacmale to be released early 2010. So back to normal and looking forward to fresh weather in Puerto Vallarta, the place where i live at the moment. I am posting an image of my 'hood here so that you get an idea of how it looks, just add 33 celsius degrees and 90% of humidity and you are there.

It's a strange place, packed with tourists one half of the year and lacking cultural movements, but besides that it's full of nice surprises; like ending up eating tacos next to Quentin Tarantino and waking up in the beach at 9am next to a dancing Simon Lebon just to mention a couple. When it comes to creativity, musik making becomes more intimate and personal in Puerto Vallarta. This is a at times challenging when making dancefloor oriented music, having mostly reggaeton and cheesy mainstream sounds on the streets and clubs; nevertheless the daily basis of sun and sightseeing makes a perfect scenario for coloured sounds and evocative progressions. That has brought musicians like The Whitest Boy Alive to record albums here, actually a friend and part of the In Finé family will be also making music here soon, so be prepared for some euro-mex-fresh sounds for the next year.

On other local news, me and my brother are working on the sound track for a stop motion animation from the young talented Homero Ramírez, which should be ready by the end of the year (mexican time). This is the third time i make music for film/video, a craft that i am starting to like a lot.

Hoping this little text makes a nice reading, i give you here also a link for a mix that i made for a show Radio Ibero, one of the nicest FM stations in the country (along with our station in Puerto Vallarta :D ). The set includes old as well as new music i got from friends, promo and my own. Favor de escuchar al calor de una Corona.

Cesar.
