Last week I
have been to Hindi Zahra in the Ancienne Belgique. Hindi Zahra came from
Morocco but now lives in Paris.She started here career as a background singer and now ended this year
with a debut album called hand made. Here most popular song is: Beautiful
tango. In Belgium she is a really popular girl (most of the time girls).
She plays a
pallet of styles from roots, desert blues, reggae and gypsy to soul. But of
course each time comes the fragility of the women voice up.
The show:
Before I
came to this concert I really dont know anything about this female singer. But
I have gone home with a nice and pleasant feeling.
She started a little slowly at here acoustic guitar. After a few songs she goes
a little harder with more guitars and drums. To the end of the show the
audience exploded, with a climax at the two last songs. She got a standing
ovation.
For myself also the peak was the really last song, where she played by here own
on a guitar a beautiful song.
I also have
my compliments for the front of house mixer and the guy who controlled the
lights. They have done an appropriate performance for a perfect show.
Im going
to tell about an awesome website called RCRD LBL. I have discovered this
website by Eppo Janssen, who was giving an interview on Studio Brussel.
RCRD LBL is the first online destination for free, legal, MP3 downloads from
the hottest marquee and emergent artists. RCRD LBL delivers free daily MP3s on
its website, through its content partners, or on the RCRD of the Day daily
email newsletter. So, each day you get two brand-new songs. They dont specify
themselves in one style. There is a lot of diversity of music on this site. The
bulk of the music is, however, rock and electronic music.So metal, hardcore, reggae and typical
underground music have been less in the spotlights. Also most of time it is
about remixes of covers, music that you dont find on other music websites. But now you know immediately about the
new trends on the market. There is a lot of music that you can hear on this website
and two weeks later on the late evening line-up of Studio Brussel.
The music
magazine Wired said about this site: The future of the music industry.
Here are
some examples of music on RCRD LBL:
Chromeo, Black Mountain, Kayne West, Ra ra ra riot, The Drums, Underworld.

I love to
travel, so Im going to talk about my trip next summer. This trip is going to
Asia. Its called the Trans-Siberian railway. Im going to travel by train from
Moscow to Beijing. The actually duration of the trip is 7 days but Im counting
1 month. My trip starts in Moscow were I start in the beginning of July.First I visit the city, after 3 days I
step on the train. The firsts stops are in 3 bigger cities of Siberia called
Omsk, Ekaterinburg and Novosibirsk. After the short stops in these cities I
take a bigger stop in the city Irkutsk. Nearby this student city is a big lake
called lake Baikal. This is the second most voluminous lake of the world. After
this last stop in Russia we are going to Mongolia.In Mongolia I want to sleep in a ger, a typical home for
the nomadic people of Mongolia. After a few stops in Mongolia, like Ulaanbaator
(the capitol of Mongolia), our journey goes to China. This is the final country
of my trip. In China Im going to visit Beijing.What then also my lost stop is in my trip. After this
adventure trip Im flying back to my normal life.
