They Shoot Music - Don't They

by Rosana Escobar 24.01.2010

A website that has blown my mind...an initiative taken by some "persons somewhere in their mid-twenties" in Vienna who have decided to shoot fresh artists having as a background a side of Vienna that many, especially foreigners, maybe wouldn't have thought of. The subcultural, urban side. Parks, streets, backstreets, pubs, markets, playgrounds, basements, in the sun or in the dark, in the heat or in the snow all of them are now hosting music free from strict frames and musts, just left in the artists' own mood or in the claxon of a passing car or in a fly buzzing around... An oasis among people's frenzy! How I miss that...music on the road because that's how we like it: spontaneously, ingenuously and simply. No sophistication, just simplicity. Why should it be so difficult? The simplicity of making the world around us more beautiful?

Now taste a little bit!
