Russian Red - I Love Your Glasses

很感謝Jeremy的推薦，讓我得以聽到這個天籟之聲。博客來音樂館以「終於等到了！」來形容這張唱片令人驚豔的感覺，完全地認同啊！原名 Lourdes Hernandez的 Russian Red有著非常特殊的嗓音，她可以是憂傷的喃喃自語、也可以是高亢而富有爆發力的演出，聲音的表情相當多元，曲調上則兼容了民謠的清新、鄉村音樂的濃郁情感、Indie Rock的冷峻疏離，細膩而層次豐富的編曲和樂器演奏刻畫著專輯獨特的風味，就連個人特色極其明顯的Cyndi Lauper作品"Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" 都能夠賦予它一個全新的面貌，Russian Red絕對是個值得期待的Supernova！

甲：喔！他躺在那裡很久了，我來的時候他已經是那樣了。
乙：舒服，我也來躺著。

甲：這樣子真好！不太想回去了。

Calm - Silver Moon

很久沒有這麼陶醉在一張Downtempo的唱片裡了，相較於前一陣子愛不釋手的Tom Middleton經典之作-Lifetracks，Calm並沒有在專輯中注入太多目眩神迷的音效或是深刻的感動，優美的旋律加上精簡的鋪陳方式反而讓人感覺到格外的清爽、舒服，特別是穿插其中的絕美鋼琴獨奏，可以讓人頓時像一池清水般的安靜、沈澱下來。

Manuel De La Mare & After Tea - The White Album

鼓點聲優雅而輕巧，加上細緻微妙的電子音符雕琢，很快的就能將你漸漸痲痹，牽引著你進入深邃華麗的虛幻空間裡頭，不需要熱血的重拍鞭策，依舊能讓你舒服的律動並帶來了極高的聽覺享受，是一張非常簡約而精準的Progressive House。

差不多的嘴巴 冒出差不多的蓮花

乍聽之下，似乎又是嘻哈特有酒池肉林文化的陳述，反映出許多他生活周遭的事件以及一些奇妙的社會現象，其實歌曲中包含了許多勸世的成份在裡頭，只是由熱狗嘴裡吐出來，就變得沒這麼正經了。特別喜歡差不多先生的內容，表現的方式和小朋友之間常說的"罵別人就是罵自己"的說法剛好相反，藉由自省的方式將不要啥事都差不多的觀念投射出來，的確啊！許多事差一點就差很多。

當然囉！相同的文化下成長、熟悉的用詞，自然會讓同在台灣的我們很容易進去歌裡面，但，明朗、愉悅的旋律是更讓人驚喜的部份，除了他所擅長的逗趣老歌取樣翻玩，大量出現在後面的輕快爵士樂演奏，更能讓我們在聽著熱狗嗆辣戲謔歌詞的同時，亦能夠感受到跨界融合的趣味與美感，"請拍手"的Jazzy Hip Hop正點的讓人想拍手叫好，"他們覺得"中悠揚鋼琴和硬蕊吉他的撞擊，更是令人大呼過癮。

結論：它是一張很好聽的HIP HOP！台灣製造！值得您掏出一些新台幣把它買回家！
