"LA MÚSICA DE LOS CHICOS TÍMIDOS, el shoegazing es una forma alternativa de encarar la música, surgido a fines de los 80’s en el Reino Unido, bautizado así por la prensa debido a la costumbre que tenían algunos artistas de tocar mirando el piso, sin ver a su público, la palabra se origina en “shoe” (zapato) y “gazing” (del verbo gaze, que significa mirar fijamente algo).
El Shoegaze es apreciado por generar paredes de sonido, en donde un instrumento no se distingue de otro, donde los efectos toman las riendas, el feedback resuena en tu cabeza y las olas de distorsión amalgamadas en los riffs hacen pasajes de una oscura psicodelia post drum machine. Género relacionado con el dream pop: texturas atmosféricas con voces casi gemidas, susurradas y lentas; guitarras procesadas con toneladas de echo." Texto Completo

"Y eso es lo que ocurre justamente con “Ten Ragas To A Disco Beat”, disco perdido de Charanjit Singh, desconocido músico de bodas de la época del Bollywood clásico -años 60 y 70- el cual es ahora motivo de polémica en blogs de este lado del mundo y periódicos especializados. El ruido ha sido notable si atendemos a los bloggers anglosajones. Esta es la historia aproximada de los hechos en tres fechas.
Año 1982: fuertemente inspirado por el sonido disco, Singh entra en el estudio con un teclado Roland Jupiter-8, una TR-808 y la máquina clave posteriormente en el mundo smiley; la TB-303 de Roland. Decidido a encontrar un punto de conjunción entre la música disco y los drones raga indios, graba la obra que nos ocupa.
Año 2002: el coleccionista Edo Bouman encuentra una copia del álbum en una vieja tienda de Nueva Delhi; “de vuelta al hotel lo reproduje en mi reproductor portátil, me noqueó. Sonaba como acid house o quizá como una versión muy minimal de Kraftwerk” (declaraciones hechas a The Guardian).
Año 2010: Bouman decide prensar el experimento en su sello Bombay Connection. Es acusado de hoax o fraude en algunos blogs especializados mientras la mayoría de tiendas más in ven con buenos ojos el producto. Se utilizan nombres algo evidentes entre los que figuran Ceephax o Aphex Twin. Efectivamente, la electrónica moderna cuanta con unos cuantos bromistas que ridiculizan géneros con un ordenador y algo de tiempo libre, el software circula libremente por la red, son las facilidades tecnológicas que nos brindan nuestros tiempos y que hacen que por ejemplo yo pueda estar hablando de esto. El mismo Richard D. James hace picadillo en sus sets a James Brown, The Temptations o Abba bajo capas de drill & bass con un tono de cachondeo general, puramente deconstructivo si me apuran."
"Como anticipo navideño y en un esfuerzo conjunto con nuestro colaborador del blog amigo, dejamos para uds. un compilado (dividido en 4 volúmenes) con las canciones destacadas del 2010 que bien podrían resumir lo acontecido en el año musical. Disfruten!"
