What's happening with the music? :-)
everyone is gay!... Somehow that was predictable.

How is it possible that the world gayest bands have a completely heterosexual public and vice versa? Despite what may be happening out there, human relations are developing in the best sense. More than ever this is the worst time for economy but paradoxically it’s the best for human relationships.

Movies such as Flashdance or Xanadú have saved the world and it’s logical now that the new gay-vampire trend is catching to the teen population. I love it... from Harry Potter to Twilight ...

At this moment it’s very interesting that bands like Telepathe formed by lesbo-darlings, can connect to the straightest audience and, of course, to the most demanding girls.... This new Super-Duper-rock-punk- emo style gay is also very interesting... Let’s see where that ends... What a curiosity!

Live long to Top Gun and Kelly McGuillis, who has get out of the closet last week. We are just missing the coming out of his cast partner to be able to see the history gayest movie.

GRAHAM NEWEY

Graham Newey is a Barcelonian singer who autoproduces and writes his own music. In 2007 he launched across myspace his first songs and in summer of the same year published his first pop video "Peter Pan", recorded in his garage with the most domestic resources, taking to the end the philosophy " make it yourself ". To this video followed "Mode", paper clip of surrealistic dyes recorded in a neighborhood supermarket. One year later, it published " Oh ", directed by the photographer and artist Jesus Madriñán, a singing to the free sex that contains orgiastic scenes for all the audiences.

In the middle of 2008 the company Qualid (of Nokia) was fixed in Graham and decided to give him the opportunity to "support" a pop video. From this patronage "Maria Antonieta" arose, the most ambitious project of the singer up to the date, in which he presents the Barcelonian version of the queen of the rococo and establishes a parallelism between the court of Versailles and the nightlife and the cajolement of the Catalan capital.

Graham Newey has acted in diverse parties of Barcelona, Madrid and Valencia, since A los Huevos Tuyos, Somos Las, Los jueves Milagro, Club Tropicana o Club Canalla.

CELOFANS

Obsessed with covering the bodies with this transparent paper, Celofans, a powerpop group recognizes that is a group focused on live performances. They claim to be entrepreneurs and the creators of the pizza-sandwich and they say singing is a need that they have.

The elegance of a "put" airline mixed with a witty songwriter. They like to do everything themselves. The make versions of their favorites songs as well as they DJ. They transformed the Madrid's night life and now is the turn for Barcelona.

They are a electronic and synthetic group without sense.

DJ BUENAVISTA

Buenavista Dj mixes irreverently the most mainstream music with the most underground and classic, always without any disrespect to style, is always a real party.

Resident in Mond and Razzmatazz Club from its origins, Dj Buenavista's path is narrowly tied to these two clubs but without stopping collaborating with others of the city as Fellini or Moog. Beside puncturing he develops other more personal events such as the "Parties Blog" in the PopBar hall and the festival "hetero-friendly gay" Dancing Queen.

In Spain, we have seen at festivals such as Sonar or FIB 2006. And beyond our borders, he went on tour with Ladytron, Soulwax or Das Pop, and he has been invited to clubs like Sonic Mook Experiment (London), Le Baron (Tokyo), and different rooms for New York, as Ruff, Bank or Nacotheque.

Recreational, universal, alarming and debunker, he has created his own style, sound Buenavista.

PEROTUTEHASVISTO

Paco began to worry seriously at the age of 27, when he was still clubbing at Barcelona’s nightclubs at the same pace as when he was a teenager. Far from considering settling down, he decided to release this anxiety puncturing and he began some months later doing it in the small and mythical room Villarrosa del Moog, where nowadays he continues putting discs regularly.

In his sessions, absolutely prejudiceless, it fits any slope of what we call pop: indie, sixties, italo-disco, aged mainstream, an unusual quantity of songs in Spanish (he’s in charge of the thematic parties devoted to this at the PopBar) and everything that is “worthy to jump on”, according to his own words.

Their sessions look like a wedding banquet: they kiss each other, dance with stoles and put Alizée, Fiordaliso, Vanessa Paradís, Gloria Estefan and Maria Daniela. Their parties are full of aura and art that end to the most pure disco bar style.

They have been the last two years together, inspiring themselves by Arancha and Guti, by Victory and Beckham, by Brad and Angelina, and entertaining discotheques and art galleries: Guggenheim, Apetit Gallery (Dogway Skate Magazine). Clubs, boites and holidays (parties): Ochoymedio (Madrid), Tropicana (Barcelona), Scalpel (Granada).

The powerful sound of The Most wished Couple relates to the most modern Australian and Canadian groups (Tiga, Presets) Norwegians and Greeks (Annie, Marsheaux), Armenian and Moldavian (Inga and Anush Arshakyanner, Nelly Ciobanu) and to a breathtaking mainstream (Infinity, Rise up, Chihuhua). This is a great occasion to wear an evening dress while commenting Hello magazine.
