movies...

I love watching movies. One of my hobbies in my spare time xD, if you can call it that.

I see all kinds of movies when I'm at home or with my girlfriend. I have not defined a genre of movies, but I can say that I always like discovering new directors and new types of movies.

I have seen very interesting films just because I like the music and the scenery is nice, so I see the same movie also coming to the Oscars and are not to my taste.

The movies I see in general I have to call attention to the trailer, if it simply draws attention not see it.

I really like the Eastern cinema, stories and arguments are completely unexpected and surprising. I think it is because our cultures are totally different and see the reality in a different light. I declare myself a follower of Kim ki duk Korean diirector. This is Iron 3.



The films made ​​with deep issues and the images speak for themselves. These aremovies that have almost no dialogues, talk more with music and images, actors andtheir gestures is paramount. I call it a kind of film to rest and relax. At the other end there is also muno directors I like, for example, Coppola, Tarantino, Scorsese, Aronofsky ...

I keep aside the Chilean film, but I have not seen any movies that I liked too much, maybeit could be Machuca or Promedio rojo, jaja ​​with that at least I laughed a lot ...

Rocksteady!!!

Okay! i love freedom! and especially for writing about something i like
This is how i feel listening this rhythm, in total freedom, Welcome to Jamaica! i present: the rocksteady!

I want to be as clear in my post, and as the topic of the post is the music, I'll put some links of videos to better clarify and understand what I'm talking about. but, hey! back to the post. 

This rhythm is a combination between reggae and ska and dance very similar to the latter, but I mean the old ska because it has many differences with the current

I leave here as a sample of the old ska dancing:





The father of this rhythm is the SKA, this rhytm is older than the rocksteady and is the grandfather of reggae. The reggae beat is a derivative of RocksteadyAnd obviously all these rhythms have their origins in the same island, Jamaica.


It is said that a little tired with Jamaican ska began to investigate new rhythms, thenrocksteady was discovered in 1966.

The letters were not as banal as ska, in contrast, tried things that were on the dailyexperiences, and even in the international arena. This rhythm had a good journey in themost popular areas of Jamaica, yet still very popular.


Some bands that play these rhythms are: Toots and the Maytals, Desmond Dekker (so you know, the classmate was bob marley xD), U-Roy, Prince Buster, Jimmy Cliff, etc ... I recommend it.

this song is one of my favourite playlist, and talk about the shanty Town:


Overall I am a lover of these rhythms, ska, rocksteady, reggae, dub reggae...If you have time and are in tune, you can enjoy some of them...
