Nuovo post pubblicato su https://www.atomheartmagazine.com/balade-nuovo-singolo-alien-kills/

Alien Kills torna con un nuovo singolo che mescola Parigi e Torino

Alien Kills: “BALADE in francese significa passeggiata, il pezzo é nato appunto mentre camminavo per Madrid ed esprime pensieri personali e autobiografici“.

Chi è Alien Kills

Luca Saffiotti in arte Alien Kills è una giovane promessa del rap Torinese classe 1997.

Nel 2019, spinto dall’assenza di opportunità e la voglia di affermarsi si trasferisce a Parigi dove inizia a coltivare la sua musica insieme al producer Wokem Bemo pubblicando nel 2021 il sui primi due singoli “Compro Oro” e “Level Up” che ottengono un ottimo riscontro.

Successivamente si trasferisce a Madrid ed attualmente è a lavoro al suo primo mixtape ufficiale, da cui viene estratto il primo singolo “Balade”, prodotto dal crew Burnt Youth, uscito con un video ufficiale girato a Parigi l’1 dicembre 2023.

BALADE, il nuovo singolo di Alien Kills

“BALADE in francese significa passeggiata, il pezzo é nato appunto mentre camminavo per Madrid ed esprime pensieri personali e autobiografici. Da piccolo scoprii il rap per puro caso e sono subito stato rapito dal sound, dell’energia dei beat e delle voci, senza preoccuparmi molto del significato; crescendo i testi son diventati parte fondamentale come ascoltatore ma successivamente anche come artista, per cui è nata una continua ricerca di nuovi vocaboli e connessioni di immagini sonore con cui esprimere il mio flusso di coscienza“. Afferma Alien Kills.

BALADE – Il video

Credits

“Balade” è stata scritta da Alien Kills, prodotta da Bluesquare e Burnt Youth. È stata registrata da Davide Dell’Amore e mixata da Matteo Scarchilli presso Elefante Bianco Studio di Roma. Il master è a cura di Burnt Youth. L’artwork della copertina è stato curato da Alixs. Photo by Daniele Pace. Il videoclip è stato diretto da Lorenzo Tricase e montato da Valerio Coccia per Alixs.

Alix Combelle Second Sydney Lockdown - Phantom Dancer 29 June 2021

Alix Combelle Second Sydney Lockdown – Phantom Dancer 29 June 2021

Alix Combelle, French swing saxophonist, clarinetist, and bandleader is this week’s Phantom Dancer feature artist from 1930s-40s commercial sides. This show was to be mixed live-on-air 17 March 2020. However, the 2SER studio closed due to COVID. So this was the first live Phantom Dancer in over five months on 1 September 2020. Now Sydney is in lockdown again. So, since I can’t go into the studio,…

Adrino - 1 - Mixtape

(A/N): Alright, it’s the 21st where I am but I’m pretty sure it’s still the 20th in most countries so I’m still on track! This is a multi-part story based off the prompts by @miraculous-events for #AdrinoWeek .

---

The perfect present, trashed. Nino looked at the broken mixtape in front of him, it was an actual cassette tape too. Adrien’s birthday gift was ruined. Broken under the heavy weight of Chloe’s opulent gift bag.

“Chloe! How could you do such a thing!” Alya protested at Chloe

“Oh, honestly, Césaire. I just needed a place to put down my stuff. Not my fault I couldn’t see such a small gift. Honestly Lahiffe, it’s probably for the best. It’ll be less embarrassing for you to give Adrien nothing than that Betamax thing.”

Tears started to well in Nino’s eyes, he stood up and rushed out of the classroom, ignoring Alya’s protests behind him. Running down the stairs, he ran into the bathroom, shakily opening a stall, then falling to the ground.

Tears started to spill out, he wanted so hard to prove that he could be thoughtful and caring to Adrien. To prove that he knew his best friend, the closest friend he ever had. Maybe even something mo-

“Hello Remix, I am Hawkmoth-”

 “No!”

Nino’s hands clenched around his now purple headphones. The purple mask hovered over his teary eyes.

“I am NOT going to let myself be used by a man with no fashion sense!”

“But Nino, how else will you save his present? His birthday is today, Adrien will be in class any minute.”

“I’ll just tell him what happened!”

“Imagine how awkward that’s going to turn out? His friend of a year, telling him that he both doesn’t have a present and that it’s Chloe’s fault? You know, Chloe, his best friend since birth? It’ll create such a sour note on what is meant to be a sweet day.”

Nino’s tears started to fall even faster, his hand gripping his headphones even tighter.

“If you accept my little gift, you can make things right. You can save the mixtape and take that brat Chloe to task.”

Nino’s hands shook. He slowly took his headphones off his head.

“How would your powers even help; the mixtape is broken?”

“Ah, there’s the fun part! You will be able to go back to important moments in people’s lives and change their personal futures. Chloe has always been such a brat, but what if she never got the bee miraculous hmm?  You can even use your powers on objects too! So, accept my gifts and save your mixtape. How else will you confess your love to Adrien?”

Nino’s fist clenched and his eyes turned narrow.

“I accept.”

---

The class was in an uproar. Alix slammed her fist down on Chloe’s table.

“This is all your fault, Chloe! Honestly, have you EVER considered anyone but yourself.”

“Oh cram it Kub-”

“No, YOU cram it, you uptight megalomaniac!” 

“Guys? What’s going on?”

The class froze and turned to see Adrien at the classroom door, staring awkwardly at the chaos he was witnessing. They realised that saying what happened would probably ruin the mood, but it wasn’t like they couldn’t NOT say anything. After glancing around between all of them, Nathaniel stepped forward, probably the only one with enough calmness and tact to say this.

“Chloe ruined Nino’s present to you and sent him crying off to the bathroom!”

Or Rose could blurt it out, that worked too.

Adrien walked in and looked over at the broken mixtape

“OH! I wouldn’t worry about Nino, guys!”

Everyone looked at the entrance. He was wearing a black helmet, covering his face. He had a black leather bodysuit with yellow stripes around his wrists, upper arms, neckline, torso and ankles. He wore yellow gloves and boots.

“Nino?” Adrien questioned

“There isn’t a Nino anymore. I’m Remix! And I swear I’ll fix everything!”

Remix walked over to the broken tape and tapped it with his gloves. Both Nino and the broken tape flashed yellow before disappearing.

---

Chloe was walking into the room, carrying a heavy bag. Suddenly, Remix flashed into the room, causing Chloe to drop the bag.

“Ahh! Akuma!”

Remix walked over to Nino’s desk, and picked up the still intact tape, before flashing yellow and disappearing.

---

Adrien had about five seconds to process what had just happened. Then he shielded his eyes from yet another yellow flash, as Remix returned to the present, cassette tape in hand.

“Nino! Stop this! This isn’t you!”

“Aww, my dude! Don’t focus on me! It’s YOUR birthday, remember! I even fixed your present!”

Remix looked around and saw Chloe standing there frozen. He placed the cassette in Adrien’s shaking hands.

“When I get back, I promise we’ll listen to it together, bro! I just have to do one TEENY thing first.”

“Nino, don’t! Ladybug and Chat Noir will have to fight you! Please stop…for me?” Adrien said softly, looking at Remix’s dark visor.

“Sorry, bro! I just can’t let her get away with it! She needs to be taught a lesson.”

Remix walked over to Chloe, now backed up against the wall, and he pressed a yellow hand against her. They both disappeared with a yellow flash.

Rewatching Béfana

It’s late night again let’s goooooooo

Poor Marinette doing chores on her birthday

TIKKI IS SO CUTE I LOVE HER

And I love her magic vomit gift I want like 7

Oooh whomst is This

Marinette’s adorable too good grief no wonder her friends would literally die for her (oops I’m getting ahead of myself)

I love all of this but OMG SHE REMEMBERED NATH THIS TIME!! (backstory: in an old webisode she mentioned inviting all her classmates to her bday party but didn’t mention tomato boy at all) - also the fact that Alix is so frickin tiny even in this thought spot oh my god

“We should take Hawk Moth’s miraculous...”

“...and push it somewhere else!”

Poor Juleka 1. has only like three things in her locker, and 2. is really terrible at acting not-suspicious

Nino’s about to drop the hottest mixtape of the year

This is ADORABLE but omg don’t do that to his headphones, I’ve broken like 5 pairs of headphones in the past few years that didn’t even belong to me and so I’m very overprotective of them now

This lil thought bubble has Juleka in it too!! Omg this episode is way cuter than I remembered

Adrien is so unbelievably bad at being not-suspicious HOW HAS NO ONE DISCOVERED HIS SUPERHERO IDENTITY YET

This show out of context is the most ridiculous thing I mean how are you meant to explain this random screencap to anyone

And the #1 prize of “worst at being not-suspicious” goes to Marinette’s parents, who chuck several cakes in the bin over the course of the episode within plain sight

I’m still shook at just how COOL Gina Dupain is (and apparently she’s a Pink Floyd fan or whatever the equivalent is in this universe)

Akjfhskjdhfkj she hid the present in her motorbike helmet, and according to her watch it looks like it might just be past noon? So she hangs out with Marinette for roughly 4 hours

This was also my reaction to finding out it’s Marinette’s fourteenth birthday because WHAT DO YOU MEAN A TINY 13 YEAR OLD WAS RUNNING AROUND SAVING AN ENTIRE CITY FROM SUPERVILLIANS THIS ENTIRE TIME, FU WHY WOULD YOU GIVE THE MIRACULOUSES TO KIDS SO YOUNG, AND WHY IS MARINETTE IN TROISIÈME IF SHE’S SO MUCH YOUNGER THAN HER CLASSMATES okay, okay I’m done

So Gina’s bike is a “Misurati”, apparently

She’s so adorable omg look at her

Me too Marinette don’t worry

Look at these new kid designs and recolours of Manon and Ella/Etta... at least the kids I adopted way back in Copycat are still there too

I see Alya’s dad in the background of the zoo, apparently he’s in charge of elephants as well as panthers so Kim better not challenge this one this time

These dorks in the background are such a mess I love them

This bridge is seriously so cursed in this show, so much bad stuff happens here - though at least Gina got to flirt with the ice cream guy

MARINETTE’S PARENTS ARE SO GREAT THEY DO THE FIST BUMP AND EVERYTHING OMG

This screencap is blessed on so many levels but what the HELL is up with Kim’s hair

The fact that Nino and Max don’t disappear here is killing me akshfksjdhgkjsfh

Mylène gave her a fashion book!! This is just soooo sweet I love this class

Tfw when you turn your son into coal but his wife’s cool so you turn her into an angel

Juleka and Rose highkey ship Adrinette, they know what’s up, just look

NOOOOOOOOOO NOT MYLÈNE

Kawaii ~

These kids are actual WARRIORS omg they got so so hardcore in season 2 and I love them so much

HEROES WITH OR WITHOUT MIRACULOUSES

I love that Rose is so sweet that even (some) akuma villains won’t kill her

Oh and Nath’s brandishing a stick btw

These kids are cooler than I will ever be and I’m okay with that

Okay but I just have one question... where was Nino during all of this? Did the poor guy go to the loo or something and come back to see all his friends turned into coal? I mean that’s basically a regular day in Paris for these kids but still

Awwwwwww

Also it’s nice that we’re getting new areas of the Eiffel Tower this season (maybe Lila’s still stuck up there somewhere)

Justin Extra is a LITTERBUG

Jean Duparc is an angel though, and I’m pretty sure that baby he’s helping is August from Gigantitan (but with a different mum apparently)

Béfana making Hawk Moth say “please” is still up there as one of the coolest things any akuma villain has done in the show, ever

Marinette’s so bad at being not-suspicious too, I swear everyone in Paris is just ridiculously oblivious to everything

The poor Eiffel Tower can just never catch a break??

This is a pretty creepy way to go actually, imagine watching your grandma turn herself into coal?? And also there are never any tourists at the Eiffel Tower, it’s like they just Know not to go there anymore

You: animation errors

me, an intellectual: Alix is so powerful she can change her hair colour at will

Everything about this is so cute on so many levels!!!

Marinette’s family ship Adrinette too lol

[breeeliss]

nathanael headcanons bc why not?

nathanael: there are people who throw out their copic markers instead of buying refills for them. how tragic is that?

he has a really hard time following in class when teachers talk too quickly or when the material is too heavy. so sometimes he’ll just sketch or do other homework in the meantime and ask ivan for notes after class is over. 

ivan’s happy to help out. it’s worth it for the album covers that nathanael draws for the mixtapes ivan gives to mylène. 

nino and nathanael used to sit in the back of the class together because they randomly bonded over this french rock band, magma, that they both love

there was one day where nathanael came sprinting into class with magma’s new album lifted over his head and nino literally jumped out of his chair and started screaming because "holy crap i forgot they were dropping an album can we please listen to it during lunch?”

adrien commissions ladybug fanart from nathanael in exchange for his physics tutoring services because mme. mendeleiev is really getting on his case about the quiz he didn’t do that well on

when nathanael gets a near perfect score on his latest physics test, he surprises adrien with a full-body, digitally colored print of ladybug and chat noir that adrien currently has framed in his room. 

alya and nathanael enter into a pact with each other where they save up small bits and pieces of their allowance at a time so that they can split the cost on new issues of their favorite comic book series

nathanael knew juleka and rose were dating before anyone else in class did and he’s super proud of that. the minute they announced it to the class, chloe cursed in the middle of homeroom and handed fourty euros to nathanael. 

marinette and nathanael are mutuals on tumblr and they’re always showing each other memes in between classes and tagging each other in posts. but they’re jerks about it because they won’t tell anyone in class what their urls are. 

kim challenges nathanael one day, saying that he can jog ten laps around the block quicker than nathanael can sketch him running and nathanael is totally up for that bet. 

it turns into a huge deal. sabrina spreads the event on facebook, alix spends all week training kim, and max oversees the event as the official judge and time keeper. 

when nathanael wins, kim bows to him whenever he sees him in the halls for close to two weeks.

My Favorite Album #203 - Veronica Milson (triple j) on the Shins ‘Wincing the Night Away’ (2007)

Comic, actor and triple j host Veronica Milsom is a rare guest who knew exactly what her favorite album is straight away - the seminal decade young record from The Shins 'Wincing the Night Away'.

We talk about how Veronica's older brother's mixtapes introduced her to the Shins, how frontman's James Mercer's insomnia fuelled the creation of the album, the intimacy of his singing, the Zach Braff driven high expectations and backlash toward this album, and whether any contemporary music has hit her as hard as this record did ten years ago.

Plus, we discuss Veronica's legendary "thing" for Bernard Fanning, how the events of your life change how you perceive time, why her perspective as a radio DJ has made her hate certain songs, her own self-induced bout with insomnia in Perth and the questions she feels guilty for asking bands during interviews.

PFlames 1978 Mixtape Digging through crates of vinyl records is a soul satisfying technique, beloved by music connoisseurs everywhere. The atmospheric pressure of the record store generates sensations beyond a spiritual reawakening. Thumbing in records that are iconic and forgotten in space and time. The composition of an authentic record is timeless. Each wavelength generated pays homage to those aphrodisiacal 45’s or ghetto blasting cassette decks. Legends live forever in the electric relaxation that flows from stereo surround to studio headphones. Music is a passage to the depths of the soul; linking the artist to a much needed mystical frequency. This is Soul, Jazz, Funk, Reggae, Hip-hop. It’s an amalgamation of innovation and inspiration. This is music. This is life. This is PFlames, 1978. PFlames is without a doubt a gifted emcee, with an unmatched Musical IQ. He manages to spit poignant poetic lyrics aside intense socially conscious viewpoints. 1978 was the birth of a lyrical mastermind, hailing from Omaha, Nebraska, PFlames puts his lifetime and philosophies on the table, and feeds the rap culture. This double album, shows influences from rebirth to circa the Golden Era of hip hop. As an emcee PFlames is in a category with Bronx native, KRS-One or even Public Enemy’s, Chuck D. He refreshes the listener with memorable bars from start to finish. “Ambition” is a rasta-packed rendition of declarative rhymes. He pushes the elevating of the people, accompanied by the crooning of Damien, a multi-faceted singer, who blazes up the track Bob Marley style. In “How I Got Over,” a Curtis Mayfield, SuperFly 70’s vibe dominates the track. A rhythmic heavy-hitting flow delivers a verse from Cloud Nine. These “Mackadocious” bars pay homage to Jimmy Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and stacks of powerful artist. The title track, “1978” registers as “Certified Dope” with a killer hook. As the LP begins to unite, the merging of pop and rap culture give this featured album its identity. The interludes are reminiscent of Biggie Smalls classic, Ready To Die, using answering machine messages to alert the artist. “Kush & Patron” is a feel-good track with elements of Bad vs. Evil meets Southern rap between the duo of emcees, PFlames and Big Mista. The surreal experience of boom bap rap, touch down in track, ‘My Way.” “Like This” samples, female Miami rapper, Khia’s hit “My Neck, My Back.” and “Loverman.” In SuperFlyShit featuring Alix Sledge, PFlames initiates Superhero cadences with relaxed rhymes. Both tracks, “Cadillac Musik” and Delorean Musik” are notalagic. “Sneaker Pimp 2” is an ode to fresh sneakers. Fresh soles assisting kicks stories and similes. All cemented on the Tribe reference, “Make My Cypher Complete.” “Hold Me Down,” a reflective track bout the life and times of PFlames. It features Neo-Soul artist Keiria Marsha who adds another melodic rendition to the album. “Thirty-6” duplicates a James Brown, Funky Child atmosphere. “The Divine” incorporates the Divine Principle, in a battle with death. “We Were Kings,” featuring R.O.C.K. is a throwback record of past struggles, depicting fresh laced Adidas, Kangols, Iconic 80’s principles. He aligns his growth with RUN DMC the “Kings of Rap”. The Billy Preston classic, “I Wrote A Simple Song, “ was sampled for the prophetic verses of the “Simple Song” track. Towards the end of the double LP, the tracks “Nothing” and “Redemption” brings the listener full circle. Overall “If it doesn’t touch my soul I can’t listen to it.” For a hip-hop head this is spiritual healing. A seasoned veteran, with mature punchlines, and undeniable influences; PFlames 1978 is an underground goldmine, for both artist and fans alike. Download at www.pflames.bandcamp.com. J.

welcome to my pinned post! buenas tardes y bienvenidos, よろしくお願い足します！sut dych chi heddiw?

i'm alix, pronouns they/them/theirs. i am an attorney and i will not be giving you legal advice so don't ask. (this is different from asking basic questions about how the law works. asks will be answered on a case by case basis.) my specialties are family law, DV law (including nonconsensual pornography), human trafficking law both domestic and international, and US indigenous law but i also have experience in criminal and juvenile defense, child protection, youth law, immigration and asylum law, and mass tort litigation.

i write. you can find my fanfics here. you won't be able to see my fic without an AO3 account; i've locked things to protect my work from AI scoops. if you are here for swallows on the beam questions (including character guides), click here. if you're looking for the sotb tag, click here. sotb fanart can be found here. if you are here for other projects of mine, click here.

i study fascism, high control religions and organizations, conspiracy theories, the evangelical christian right, american legal history, and some other things for fun. i'm building a youtube channel to do this more consistently. keep an eye on this space for links. i'm also mid-construction on a podcast with a friend, so i will be posting links to that here as well once it's up and running.

日本語が話せます！y estudiando español pero lo siento, mis maestros eran salvadoreños, mexicanos, y puertorriqueños entonces mi vocabulario es muy variado. a dw i'n dysgu cymraeg.

i am also exploring conversion to judaism. i won't talk about it here much because religion is a very private thing for me. i'll tag what little i do post here. i absolutely do not tolerate any zionism on my page. if you are a zionist i do not want to associate with you. that being said, being jewish and being a zionist are not equivalent and i will not tolerate antisemitism of any stripe from any of my mutuals. antizionist jews exist. zionist goyim exist. zionism is an idea, not an immutable identity. regardless of whether i do wind up converting, do not fuck with my friends.

my patreon is under construction. my ko-fi is here.

recommendations for books, tv/movies, and podcasts. also i sometimes go viral which i find weird (anything over 450 notes is viral to me). my fandom mixtapes are here.

if you're here for my opinions, click here.

if you're here just to hang, hi!
