Official Video "Sesame Seeds" by FALL OF CARTHAGE, taken from album "Drawn Into Madness" | in stores: 23 September , 2022âą ORDERS:MDD: http://mdd-records.de/...
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, Lolaâs 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.
The other day I was having a conversation about music with some people I work with in a Restaurant in Amsterdam. These two guys are younger than me and, being young Europeans, they could not conceive I don't like electronic music. I tried to explain that musicians are important for me to appreciate a song, and that leaving the generation of sound to machines was, for me, a last resort, in case the music was just too complex to be played by humans.
This reminded me of the song (or musical piece) called G-spot Tornado, written by Frank Zappa. Zappa wrote that song for the Jazz from Hell album, and said the piece was too difficult to be played by humans, so he used a Synclavier DMS to play all the parts. I showed them that song as an example of the electronic music I could listen to. They were surprised at what they were listening.
This whole event, in turn, reminded me of the performance of this song by the Ensemble Modern in Frankfurt, Germany. In addition to the ensemble playing a wonderful, amazing rendition of the song (which was being conducted by Zappa, for... show more

In addition to the ensemble playing a wonderful, amazing rendition of the song (which was being conducted by Zappa, for his Yellow Shark album), behind Zappa -- and therefore in front of the orchestra) Canadian Dancer Louise Lecavalier was making a dance adaptation of the song. Her performance is as mind-blowing as the song, and the two together make for a show that is worth seeing many times.
Thus, here's the video to the song:
. Played by the Frankfurt Ensemble Modern. Written and Directed by Frank Zappa. Arranged by Ali N. Askin. Performed in dance by Louise Lecavalier
