#QueroMaisMusicaPortuguesa

Depois da quota obrigatória de 30% de música portuguesa nas rádios ser abandonada pelo ministro da Cultura, surge o movimento #QueroMaisMusicaPortuguesa. Este movimento conta com uma petição com mais de 2,000 assinaturas e o apoio de inúmeros artistas portugueses como Rui Veloso, Luísa Sobral, Luís Represas, entre outros.

Podem perceber melhor sobre este movimento com este vídeo do Expresso:

Alegando que “não há produção suficiente de música portuguesa para assegurar estes valores”, o presidente da Associação Portuguesa de Radiodifusão também se apresentou contra o aumento da quota.

Hoje deixamos algumas sugestões de música portuguesa, provando que existe muita e boa música no nosso país, que pode satisfazer todos os gostos.

Para fãs de thrash metal apresentamos os promissores Warout com a recente Addicted to Violence, uma bomba ao vivo! (Data de lançamento: 6 de Janeiro, 2023)

Os transmontanos Whales Don’t Fly, no género do Metal, iniciaram em 2018 e lançaram o primeiro álbum em 2022. Uma viagem que vale a pena fazer, do início ao fim (Data de Lançamento: 6 de Fevereiro, 2022)

Também de raízes transmontanas, os Soul Despair são uma banda promissora no MetalCore. (Data de Lançamento: 14 de Abril, 2023)

Outras bandas dentro do género que vale a pena ouvir: Seventh Storm, Jarda, Toxikull, Ledderplain, Moonspell, Tara Perdida, Apotheus

Vamos dar uma voltinha até ao rock, com os mirandelenses Dan’s Revival, que remetem para o rock dos anos 60. (Ano de Lançamento: 2019)

No folk rock temos os brigantinos Yvette Band com o novo álbum Co[N]tradição.

(Desculpem, isto está a tornar-se uma ode a Trás-os-Montes)

Os Diabo na Cruz, que continuam a deixar saudade.

No indie rock não podemos deixar de mencionar os já conhecidos Capitão Fausto e Ornatos Violeta

No pop rock/ punk rock os Baleia Baleia Baleia continuam a dar cartas com o álbum Suicídio Comercial lançado em 2022, considerado um dos melhores do ano.

No rock alternativo, Persona 77 lançaram o mais recente EP em 2022.

Paraguaii, First Breath After Coma, The Miami Flu, The Poppers, Fugly, Grandfathers House, Bed Legs tudo nomes de bom rock indie português

Os portuenses Jupiter lançaram hoje (14 de abril, 2023), Diamante em Bruto, um estilo funk/groovy “à moda do Porto”

No campo instrumental, já conhecemos Homem em Catarse

Os tops nacionais não mentem com vários artistas portugueses na lista, demonstrando que o público português gosta da música que por cá se faz:

Bárbara Bandeira, Carolina Deslandes, Diogo Piçarra, Slow J, Bárbara Tinoco, D.A.M.A., Miguel Araújo, António Zambujo, são apenas alguns nomes que estão uma e outra vez entre os mais ouvidos no nosso país

Lo-fi beats? Também temos

Com raízes no R&B, Lo-fi e rock, os vimaranenses The Midnight Spot surgiram há alguns anos e finalmente lançaram dois singles em 2021. Fica aqui um deles.

Chegamos finalmente ao rap e hip hop, com nomes como Sam the Kid, Plutónio, Wet Bed Gang, Boss AC, Da Weasel que são já parte do nosso vocabulário.

Bezegol, que dispensa apresentações e rótulos (esta com Rui Veloso, que dispensa ainda menos de apresentações) - Aqui

Não esquecendo a música popular, que não é só pimba, deixamos algumas sugestões engraçadas para fazer um bailarico à moda portuguesa.

Canedo // Galandum Galundaina

Quem nunca dançou esta música de braço com um amigo que atire a primeira pedra.

Ainda há muitos portugueses que acreditam não gostar de música nacional porque “não gosto de pimba”. Temos que deixar umas palavras de agradecimento ao pimba, mesmo assim, por todas as festas da terrinha, todos os finos derramados, os sorrisos rasgados e a certeza de que cada verão português vai deixar saudade até ao próximo.

O fado, é obviamente, um dos géneros mais característico do nosso país, apesar de não ser o favorito de toda a gente. Mesmo assim vale a pena ir a uma casa de fados e apoiar a nossa economia local, ou ir à Monumental Serenata em Coimbra chorar com os amigos.

Povo que lavas no rio // Amália Rodrigues

Canção do Mar // Dulce Pontes

Além de vários outros artistas aqui não mencionados (tentámos dar palco aos menos conhecidos, não querendo esquecer os nomes de renome no país), se esta lista ainda não te foi suficiente para despertar a curiosidade (esperamos que não), podes ouvir mais música portuguesa aqui:

Apotheus: reveal new album's details https://thebibleofmetal.blogspot.com/2019/06/hard-n-heavy-news-apotheus-reveal-new.html

[saxhleel]

Hey, what mods did you use in the video where the Khajiit Dragonborn kicks Miirak's butt? She looks amazing, I love her hair and outfit!

Thank You! She's one of my favorite characters :)

She is wearing the Bosmer Engraved Armor set + the Apotheus Scarf and Tied Red Bandana. All from the Immersive Armors Mod.

She's also equipped with Leather Pouches and Vial Holders from the Bandolier, Bags and Pouches Mod.

The hair is from BeastHHBB - Beast Hair Horn Beard and Brow.

The enhanced eye textures are from Covereyes.

I used the Beast Race Bodypaints Mod for her white and black fur markings in her face and body.

And obviously RaceMenu for some more customization options in the character creation

Bands List (Part 1: A)

Disclaimer: My passion and like for the respective bands does not mean that I support them outside of the music-world. I just like the songs, for whatever reason.

Album Review: Apotheus - The Far Star (Black Lion Records)

Album Review: Apotheus – The Far Star (Black Lion Records)

Emerging from the city of Paços de Ferreira, Apotheus place their exquisite sonic territory in the middle of melodeath and prog metal. The Portuguese group started to record some demos soon after their formation in 2008 and released the EP “A Quest to Remain” in 2011. However, they did not perfect their desired sound until the creation of their 2013’s debut full-length, titled When Hope and…

[the-apocryphal-one]

Sooo, speaking of mods for skyrim, can you give me a list of ones i should get? i have the Special edition, and i've only ever played the game on Xbox. I'd like something to make my Nord PC pretty. and the graphics.

hoooooooooo boy. *deep breath*

First of all, definitely get Nexus Mod Manager, it’s a lifesaver when it comes to downloading, installing, and organizing mods. For the mods themselves…

THE UNOFFICIAL SKYRIM PATCH: 

Get this. No questions asked. It fixes so many bugs. It deserves its own topic, that’s how vital it is.

Graphics:

I use a combination of Total Character Makeover (for basic character creation) and Diversity (for the rest of Skyrim) to make everybody look good, but still unique and lore-friendly. No anime to be found here! Load TCM first and have Diversity at the bottom of your load order, and it’ll work fine.

I also like Northborn Scars for the scar textures and some new scars (like burns). Just load it after TCM and before Diversity.

For kids, there’s RS Children Overhaul, which is really good but needs patches for like…everything. I’d install that last (so you know what you want to patch) but move it to first in your load order.

ApachiiSkyHair adds more hairs than I care to count to character creation. I’m not a fan of all of them, but a lot of mods have it as a requirement (including the above-mentioned Diversity), and some of the options are really nice. I also like KSHairdos.

For general graphics (objects, nature, etc), there’s Static Mesh Improvement Mod, Realistic Water, Skyrim Flora Overhaul, Enhanced Blood Texture, Vivid Weathers, Better Shaped Weapons, Book Covers Skyrim, and Enhanced Lights.

Footprints is a nice little touch-up mod that has you leave footprints in the snow!

Realistic Ragdolls and Forces tones down some of the over-the-top flopping people do when they’re ragdolled by Fus Ro Dah or killed in general.

UI:

SkyUI fixes the UI to be more friendly for a PC-user, since the original is more suited to those on the XBox.

Overhauls:

Everything by EnaiSioin, but especially Ordinator. Ordinator is a perk rehaul system that makes so many builds available. Want to play a cleric-type? The Restoration tree now has perks that let your spells burn with sacred fire, or perks for a plague doctor. Necromancer? Conjuration has separate perks for Necromancy, Bound Weapons, and Summoning. Useless trees in vanilla, like Pickpocket and Speech, are completely re-hauled–Speech especially is tied to your Thu’um, so you can make Shout-specific builds.

The rest of Enai’s stuff is also great; Thunderchild adds more Shouts (it’s where I got the snowstorm one) and more objects for Shout builds. Wildcat is a combat overhaul that adds things like injuries and makes it a lot more challenging. Sacrosant overhauls vampires, Andromeda overhauls Standing Stones, Imperious overhauls races, Apocalypse adds over a hundred new spells…look just get everything from him.

Immersion:

Immersive Citizens and Run For Your Lives, in combination, improve the AI of friendly NPCs. Now you no longer have an unarmored, dagger-wielding blacksmith charging the rampaging dragon.

Immersive Patrols does exactly what it says, it adds more patrols for the various factions–Dawnguard, Civil War, Thalmor (ambush time bitches!). It also makes the Civil War feel more like a war; if Stormcloak and Imperial patrols cross paths, they’ll fight, and you often run into such fights while travelling.

Frostfall, Campfire, and INeed together form a great “survival mode”, if you’re a fan of Fallout’s. Skyrim’s wilderness feels deadly in the far north, and even in the south/middle is still something to be respected. Now you have to worry about eating, sleeping, and staying warm.

Armors and Weapons:

Immersive Armors adds a lot of beautiful, lore-friendly armors to the game, including the one my character is wearing (Apotheus Armor) and the one she has her eye on (Ritual Armor of Boethiah).

Cloaks of Skyrim adds cool GoT-style cloaks and capes to the game! They also help with the Frostfall-survival package above.

Zim’s Immersive Artifacts buffs up the underpowered artifacts in the game, and makes some unique ones when appropriate–for example, in vanilla, becoming Thane nets you a generic weapon. With this, you get something unique and good.

Gameplay:

Ars Metallica Smithing Enhancement adds more things to smithing, like arrows, lets you melt down unwanted armor and weapons, and grants experience for smelting or forging leather. It definitely helps with leveling up this tree (like say, getting to the 90 you need for dragonbone/dragonscale armor and weapons).

Sneak Tools SE is the mod I mentioned, that let me commit crimes without getting a bounty if I was masked. It also adds a bunch of useful stuff if you want to do a thief-type build, like fire or noisemaker arrows.

Other:

Cutting Room Floor adds back a bunch of cut content into the game (for example, if you join the Companions, Aela can be the one on your mission in Proving Honor, and has a whole lot of her own dialogue), and is just really nice.

The Choice is Yours. Are you like me and hate having your journal fill with quests you don’t want to complete, just because you overheard something? This changes that. You have to choose to pursue a quest for it to pop up in your journal, they’re no longer added automatically.

Achievement Mod Enabler. For some stupid reason, Bethesda decided that modding your game meant no more achievements. Well, now you can have your cake and eat it too.

Better Dialogue Controls does what it says, makes dialogue easier to navigate so you don’t accidentally click the wrong option and get mobbed by the guards you wanted to surrender to.

Relationship Dialogue Overhaul adds thousands of voiced lines to make your relationship with NPCs feel less bland and repeat-y. Rivals, friends, spouses, have much more to say. It also fixes dialogue bugs!

The Paarthurnax Dilemma. What’s that, Delphine? You want me to kill my friendly dragon mentor or you’ll withdraw your support? Screw you, I’m the Dragonborn and you obey me! Basically lets you put your foot down on that whole quest, keep your mentor, and keep your Blades.

Hearthfire Multiple Adoptions. Look I’m a softy and I hate that there are four orphans in the cold but I can only adopt two. Now you can adopt up to six!

I, uh…I have a lot more, but I tried to tone it down to just what I’d recommend for everyone. Basically, I excluded followers, guild overhauls, new guilds, smaller mods, and what I’d call “HARD difficulty” stuff (like overhauling the economy to be against me and oh my gosh I’m so poor). If you have any questions or want recommendations for other things, feel free to ask about them. But this is basically what I’d recommend for a beginner.

Hi! I hope you don't mind me asking - what armour is Ysmir wearing in your latest screens? It's almost as cool as she is. :P

Aww thanks lovely!

Sure, it’s called Apotheus Armor.

I’m using Skyrim SE and got it from Immersive Armors pack. For normal Skyrim there is also a separate version here. I am pretty sure you can craft it if your skill is high enough.
