Locked in Ana Locking's use of colour

One of the things that locked me in during the February 2011 presentation of Spanish Fall / Winter collections at Cibeles  Madrid Fashion Week was the use of colour by the Spanish designer Ana Locking. Aside from the colours, Trendenz was fascinated by the great proposals as far as menswear is concerned e.g, the long coats with interestig details or the daring rocks for men. Fashion with a sense of purpose and clean style. 

The most beautiful band in town

Think of Arcade Fire or I'm From Barcelona, mix it with tropical melodies and lyrics and rock anthems and you will get the perfect mix by this bunch of cool modern Brazilians. Formed two years ago A Banda Mais Bonita Da Cidade (The Most Beautiful Band In Town) began researching the work by some popular Brazilian composeres, mixing brazilian lyrics and melodies with recent rock sounds. The result is this astonishing song for the cool days of Summer. After discovering recent acts such as Cansei de Ser Sexy, A Banda Mais Bonita da Cidade could be a sure bet to ignite the audiences in the coming summer open air festivals. File under cool modern Brazlians, next to the sounds of Mangue Beat, Fernanda Abreu or the great Brazilian Dj Camilo Rocha, the man who launched the compilation "Música Electrônica do Brasil" for the magazine Trip do Brazil in the mid-90's and who changed then completely my perception on Brazilian music.
