  LA MANCHA NEGRA (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack) Director Enrique Garcia Music composed by Jesús Calderón Performed by the “Banda Sinfónica de Jaén” orchestra, conducted by Pedro López Álvarez and Jesús Calderón in Jaén (Spain) Label Plaza Mayor Company Ltd After the death of the elderly Matilde Cisneros, her three daughters set the wake before a neighbor that turns its back on them, a priest in war with the family, and the unexpected arrival of his eldest son. COMPOSER NOTES   From the beginning, I conceived the soundtrack of “La Mancha Negra” as rough and wild music, a reflection of the feelings of the characters, who are tormented in a very visceral and primitive way. The mother of the family, for example, with her brief but crucial role, continues thanks to the music to constantly float over the whole story like a ghost that haunts and envelops everyone with her sickly and greedy personality until the end. “La Mancha Negra” is made of rough percussions, rep...

        Le pianiste Jean-Paul Daroux signe son 4ème album « Change ør nø Change », la suite très attendue du précédent CD « la légende des 7 sages ». Le thème des sujets abordés ne pouvait qu’aiguiser notre inspiration , la nature, la faune et la préservation de ce qui reste à sauver. Malgré les confinements et ses conséquences notre motivation s’en est sortie grandie . C’est une véritable note d’espoir qui sonne comme un chant venu du coeur.   La musique aux multiples facettes nous plonge dans un univers poétique et narratif. Une réussite du mélange des genres aux confins de la pop du jazz et du classique. Les mélodies sont belles et envoûtantes, les sonorités tantôt suaves tantôt sauvages nous transportent vers un ailleurs. La contrebasse jouée à l’archet donne une dimension orchestrale et polyphonique, le piano caresse, percute et vibre sur toute sa tessiture, la batterie fougueuse virevolte, gronde et nous invite à la danse. ...

  Will Jack Dorsey and Square be able to transform TIDAL into an industry-leading streaming service complete with a suite of premier financial tools for artists? That’s the vision… though Jay-Z could be forgiven for not caring too much either way. Mr Carter has just completed the sale of 80% of TIDAL to Square in a deal now confirmed to be worth $302 million – around six times the price he originally paid for the platform back in 2015. Jay-Z wasn’t the only one chucking around impressive financial figures this week. Merck Mercuriadis‘ Hipgnosis acquired a catalog from songwriter/producer Andrew Watt for a price MBW estimates was in the eight figures, and upwards of $45 million. (Rumors suggest Mercuriadis has also closed the purchase of the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ song catalog for around $150m – but no confirmation has been forthcoming on that one so far.) Elsewhere, Primary Wave announced a multi-million dollar acquisition of its own, picking up the publishing catalog of songwriter...
