Hey! I just realized I haven't shared the last two music videos of my band with the #Fediverse. Here they are:
First, a live-version of our song Milqui:
This song was written for a member of our band, who for now shall remain nameless. It tells the story of how, regardless of the favor you ask, he will always ask you for "milqui" in return. Milqui is short for "mil quinientos" (1.500), and it refers to how he's always charging money for everything he does. In his defense, he always does a pretty good job 😛
The second video is a video-clip of a song that we released with Wax Works Records. We have a "normal" (i.e. psychedelic cumbia with vocals) version of the song (Chancleta y Pow!), and killer instrumental dub remix from the gates of hell (Chancleta y Pow! - dubeame esta cumbia), which is the version that this... show more

We are very proud of the latest release, which by the way you can get in vinyl. There are only 100 copies made, and they are numbered by hand. So if you like it, hurry up and get your copy HERE
In their early years, Lolaβs Dice experimented with punk and funk. Later, touched by the influx of Tropical Noise the band vandalized all sort of sounds impregnating their rhythm section with the magical sabrosura.
40 minutes of transcriptions by Busoni and Siloti.
I've reordered the program, remastered the audio and compiled the separate recordings into one continuous video. This will be the intended recital order.
The last Siloti (or Busoni) transcription I prepare for a planned recital when public performances are allowed again. Now I have to determine a performance order.
This week I took a detour from the Nick Drake transcription project, after a brief exchange with @Jim Symon on the art of transcription, which led me study the Bach Chaconne transcribed by Siloti. Pianists and audiences are well familiar with the Busoni transcription, which has attained a mythic status (and remains beyond my ability to play), but Alexander Siloti transcribed Busoni's transcription, providing pianists of more modest means access to the heart and soul of an otherwise inscrutable work. A "Bach-Busoni Lite", if you will.
I rerecorded the Bach-Busoni "Ich ruf zu dir, Herr Jesu Christ" today, since I wasn't entirely pleased with my first attempt several months ago. This time, I thought I would include my old friends, the spider lilies of @Sandy Ao ι»ζη
