Andrés Calamaro from scratch with Rock
The Argentine singer Andres Calamaro said today he wants to "start from scratch" in music, compose differently and be back with the rock. "I want to go to a rehearsal room to start from scratch in music. Instead of composing only with machines and music go in different directions, I want to do with bassist, drummer and guitar in hand because I'm meeting with rock back, "said Calamaro reporters at a news conference. The Argentine, who is in Colombia with his concert tour "License to sing" confessed that is at a different stage of his career, in which a "unleashed creativity" is not present, as it is now "worried" more "sing well". "I overcame my expectations for delirium, misconduct and unleashed creativity when I felt I could record and play anything," said the artist. In this regard he added that he has "a great desire to sing inspired" and was proud to have swum against the current in some passages of his musical career. "I am happy to have broken my own molds and burn discs or impossible to 2,000 recordings that nobody wants," he added.
Meanwhile, the artist was uneasy with the position taken by the Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa against the Nobel Prize for Literature awarded to singer Bob Dylan, considering that the singer and composer American made "sufficient grounds" for this "metaphysical prize or Nobel oral ". The Peruvian novelist said during the presentation of the German edition of his novel "Five Corners" in Berlin, the Nobel Prize for Literature should be for writers and not for singers, referring to the decision of the Swedish Academy to award the prize Dylan. "It's weird. Mario Vargas is a generation of Rolling Stone and you should know that Bob Dylan is not just a great singer, but does have literary category," he added. To close with the thorny issues, "Salmon" with some black humor, disapproved of the wall that the elected US president, Donald Trump plans to build on the border with Mexico. Calamaro said Mexico will take their concerts and "probably the United States, although it has to climb a wall." He added: "I do not think it is as long as the Great Wall of China, Nes amazing !, how many bricks will be?".
Calamaro also spoke of "Volume 11," the album being prepared and will include 18 "unusual and interesting" songs, recorded in different studios and different weeks. "Back distortion political correctness. There vampiric, satanic, apocalyptic lyrics and contempt for animal lovers, everything a record today must have" explained the Argentine. As for her "License to sing" which began this year in Spain and close in his native Argentina, the artist said it is "much more than the presentation of a disk", then choose to design a more intimate concert with a format percussion, double bass and piano including a trip tango classics as "Milonga del Trovador" as well as the hits "My illness", "Paloma" and "airplanes". "We give a quality leap with a concert to sit and listen with features theater," Calamaro, who considered with some irony that his presentation "is not a real risk" and is not intended for those fans who want to said stand , jump, participate and take pictures to post on their networks. Finally, he confirmed he wants to re-edit his film "Bohemia" and put a voice in French. He said that in addition to the presentations that will in Medellin, Bogota and Bucaramanga, where he will use "exotic instruments to have a Colombian color," next year will return to this country to appear in Cali, Barranquilla and Manizales.
