Portishead-“Glory Box”

Descubriendo la Melancolía y la Innovación de Portishead a Través de "Glory Box"

Aquí otra banda musical británica de trip hop, jazz, y música electrónica de Brisol que desde 1991 están haciendo buenos temas y que a medida que profundicé en la discografía de Portihead descubrí un tesoro que es testimonio musical.

Al conocer Massive Attack, empecé a investigar sobre ese estilo que me dejó sorprendido, para esos años.

Me llamó mucha la atención por su apariencia y su elegancia que ellos hacen con sus instrumentos musicales que suenen tan únicos, ese ambiente musical que recrean con la sutileza y que desnudan el alma con letras oscuras, el sonido de la guitarra en la canción “Glory Box” es totalmente un verdadero arte para mis oídos.

La cantante Beth Gibbons le da una textura bastante peculiar para convertirse como una de las divas en la industria del trip hop y ese intro de la canción con scratch que añade el dj para lograr un buen efecto como lo hacían los representantes del hip hop que sonaban mucho en los temas de la vieja escuela.

La letra “Glory Box” en la primera parte del tema la cantante Gibbons expresa su fatiga con jugar con el amor. Ella está lista para entregarse completamente en el amor y dejar por un lado su papel de seductora, lo que implica un cambio en su enfoque hacia las relaciones.

¿Siente verdadero amor en “Glory Box”?

Luego, la cantante específica que busca una razón para amar y ser mujer, mostrado un anhelo de autenticidad y una búsqueda de identidad. Quiere ser reconocida y amada por lo que realmente es, y no es por los roles que ha desempeñado en el pasado.

Goldfrapp: Seducción Sonora y Elegancia Electrónica

Una banda que cobra seducción sonora como la sensualidad y belleza de su vocalista Alison Goldfrapp, pueden notar que la agrupación tiene como nombre el apellido de su vocalista.

A ellos los conocí de una forma bien peculiar, para el año 2000 era fanático de un canal de moda que tenía como nombre Fashion TV (Latinoamérica) y en los desfile de moda siempre colocaban temas de agrupaciones electrónica o dance, captó mi atención en aquel sonido.

Diversión y Versatilidad:

Cuando escucho la voz cautivadora de Alison Goldfrapp, hay una combinación de ritmos electrónicos pulsantes creados por Will Gregory, crearon una experiencia auditiva que fue más allá de la simple escucha de una canción. De las otras 2 bandas que coloqué, esta es la más divertida.

La letra de la canción parece evolucionar la idea de una comunicación directa y cercana, deseando una conexión de inmediata con otra persona. La mención es sin duda que este tema siempre está en mi perfil de Spotify para darle play todos los días.

Massive Attack-“Teardrop”

---

I clearly remember the first time I listened to Massive Attack. It was a rainy, gray afternoon, and I was looking for new music and suddenly stumbled upon a recommendation online. I pressed play and was transported to an exquisite and unique sound.

Massive Attack's music trapped me in my bedroom with that special mix of dense electronic rhythms and full of melancholy vibes with the song "Teardrop" which is the best known song of the British group.

That dark and somber style and the beautiful voice of Elizabeth Fraser who belonged to the band Cocteau Twins, has a style that I love, and it was the dream pop, musical genre that led them to the maistream.

The album "Mezzanine" is their third album and was the work that brought them to fame becoming a great influence of electronic music and trip hop in the golden years of the 90s.

The lyrics of the song is a metaphor for love and fear that we have in the self-reflection to continue in the hell of anxiety, but it is a warm and beautiful theme that makes you leave that comfort we live every day that sometimes you have to explore new experiences and dare to know new things. This is poetry, this is love, this is musical quality.

Portishead-“Glory Box”

Discovering the Melancholy and Innovation of Portishead through "Glory Box".

Here is another British musical band of trip hop, jazz, and electronic music from Brisol that since 1991 are making good songs and as I delved into the discography of Portihead I discovered a treasure that is musical testimony.

When I got to know Massive Attack, I started to investigate about that style that left me surprised, for those years.

I was very struck by their appearance and their elegance that they make with their musical instruments that sound so unique, that musical atmosphere that they recreate with subtlety and that they bare the soul with dark lyrics, the sound of the guitar in the song "Glory Box" is totally a true art to my ears.

The singer Beth Gibbons gives it a quite peculiar texture to become one of the divas in the trip hop industry and that intro of the song with scratch that adds the dj to achieve a good effect as did the representatives of hip hop that sounded a lot in the old school tracks.

The lyrics "Glory Box" in the first part of the track the singer Gibbons expresses her fatigue with playing with love. She is ready to give herself completely in love and put aside her role as a seductress, which implies a change in her approach to relationships.

Does she feel true love in "Glory Box?".

Then, the singer specifies that she is looking for a reason to love and be a woman, shown a longing for authenticity and a search for identity. She wants to be recognized and loved for who she really is, and it is not because of the roles she has played in the past.

Goldfrapp-“Ooh La La”

Goldfrapp: Sonorous Seduction and Electronic Elegance

A band that is as seductive in sound as the sensuality and beauty of its vocalist Alison Goldfrapp, you may notice that the name of the group is the same as the last name of its vocalist.

I met them in a very peculiar way, for the year 2000 I was a fan of a fashion channel called Fashion TV (Latin America) and in the fashion show they always played electronic or dance songs, it caught my attention in that sound.

Fun and Versatility:

When I hear Alison Goldfrapp's captivating voice, there is a combination of pulsating electronic beats created by Will Gregory, they created a listening experience that went beyond just listening to a song. Of the other 2 bands I posted, this one is the most fun.

The lyrics of the song seem to evolve the idea of direct and close communication, desiring an immediate connection with another person. The mention is without a doubt that this track is always on my Spotify profile to play it every day.
