Listen here to the second part of the conversation with musician David Fonseca, who here talks about his aesthetic side, evident in the visual creations that involve his albums, shows, photographs, music videos and the clothes he wears. And he even mentions the name of an iconic world pop artist with whom he would have the pleasure of wearing his entire wardrobe. David also reveals that despite his somewhat “taciturn” public image, he lives life with “extreme humor” and “generalized nonsense”, as an effective way of staying alert to the ridiculousness of things.
David shares later, in the middle of this episode, some of the musical treasures that he has mined and listened to repeatedly, leaves several cultural suggestions and reads a poem by Eugénio de Andrade. That and other surprises. Happy listening!
Songs:
1 – David Fonseca, “Nada a Perder” – Single from the next album to be released in the last quarter of this year.
2- Cocteau Twins, “Wolf in the Breast” — “This or any of this album, the band that has aged the least, on the contrary, seems to shine more through time with a certain modernity and strangeness, unique and inimitable. They have the power to establish an immediate sensation that varies with where I am in life.”
3 – Geese, “Taxes” — “One of the bands that excited me the most in recent years, they have everything a new band should have, a lot of nerve, not afraid to take risks, innovative but with great references, they leave me more confused than I was before I heard them. This song caught me off guard and I listened to it 50 times in a row when I discovered it.”
4 — Middle Kids, “Terrible News” — “I like discovering songs and bands without any kind of reference and I listen to a lot of things I don’t like to discover the ones I like. This song was among a thousand songs suggested by streaming services and has been my favorite ever since for driving, cycling, cooking, dancing, whatever. I listen to it and immediately get into that spirit.”
