As hard as it is to differentiate your sound among the vast music cloud that populates the internet these days. Some artists have managed to stay true to their vision and keep struggling during the hardships and perils of making music these days. That’s the case of Celestina Robot whose latest efforts have placed them as a premiere band among the electronic music crowd.

Celestina, as the fans called it have made a strong impression via their live shows which currently incorporate 3d visuals, a move very in tune with today’s entertainment technology. Celestina’s music has a strong electronic core which gets topped with a rock and roll attitude and heavy guitars riffs. As Wilfre Carrasquillo, guitarist and band founder tells us “The way we work is different from other bands in the island. Others may start as a rock band and then add the electronic elements as if it was frosting to a cake. With us is different Celestina Robot is electro and rock”.

Celestina Robot’s lattest effort Beautiful Accidents (2008) is available via a FREE digital download through their profile at Reverb Nation Currently the band is working on their next album Ultimatum which will feature a more aggressive and sound as the band tries to find the perfect mix between the machine and man.

Amplitude Live at Biento, originally uploaded by kx0101.

Changing the tempo here just came back from San Juan after covering The Killers concert at Coliseo de Pueto Rico for Spinearth.tv (more on that soon). But before getting to my hometown Aguadilla, Jose David Perez told me that he had a gig that night something different , something lounger, and more relax. So i said “Cool… I’ll be there.” It was the birthday celebration of David’s girlfriend Jeh and the tiny ensemble composed of Amed Irizarry, Antonio Caraballo,Ariel Robles and José David himself fired up the small club on Piñero Ave. The music was self explanatory cool grooves, hot jazz licks all put together in a very modern fashion. Enjoy

Los Negros Vivos, originally uploaded by kx0101.

After filming some guerrilla style stuff @ El Batey bar in old San Juan i got invited to the Rocksessions on tour @ Sr. Froggs. Ihave to admit that the corny humorous ambiance of sr froggs was a bit choking at first but once i got over that everything was cool. From the audioence point of view the organization seemed top notch, sound was great but not forgiving to everyone on the bill, specially for the more electronic type bands they suffered the most. The highlight of the show was Habitat and Los Negros Vivos both gave an awesome show. Habitat showing some of their new material merging a neo-detective/noir/mystery sound with rock and Los Negros Vivos with their classic ska sound got the attention of the audience real quick and left them screaming for more, including me. I don’t know if it was the alcohol in my blood or the music through the speakers but i found myself dancing on the pit with the camera in hand, just enjoying myself.

Since Hollywood is so obsessed with remakes and taking cartoon and comics from animated form to real life they should think about this. This guys even made the casting for them.
