Silence, there is music… (Mabel)

I’m not sure why and it only happens once in a while but when it happens, you know it instantly. You listen to the first chords and you realize that you’re in front of a unique talent. It hits you right in the face with all the emotion and leaves you speechless.

Another kind of music and I… (Lieven, part 1)

Lieven, telling us about his first months in Barcelona, surrounded by perfume bottles and without speaking a word of Spanish nor Catalan. He was saved by… a song. And by none less than Elliott Smith.
