"TUTORIAL PARA FABRICAR UN CARRO PARA TRANSPORTAR LOS HERRAJES DE LA BATERIA" 


28.- Día 26 de Agosto de 2018.

"CARRO PARA TRANSPORTAR LOS HERRAJES DE LA BATERIA


Hoy vamos con un sencillo “Videotutorial” en el que os muestro como fabricarnos de forma sencilla un robusto carro metálico para transportar la pesada bolsa cargada con los herrajes de nuestra batería, (Todos los pies de platos y los diversos herrajes).
Para ello he necesitado los siguientes MATERIALES: 6,5m de ángulos de hierro galvanizado agujereados, 40 tornillos y tuercas M8, 8 escuadras M8, un tirador metálico y un par de ruedas fijas. Las medidas del carro las he ajustado a la bolsa que ya tenía para llevar los pies de platos (que es de 115 x 33 x 33).
Las HERRAMIENTAS que he necesitado han sido: una sierra radial con disco para metales para cortar los ángulos, una taladradora con broca para metal para hacer los agujeros donde va el tirador, una llave para apretar los tornillos y tuercas M8; y guantes y gafas para protegernos al cortar y repasar los hierros cortados.
En cuanto al PRESUPUESTO, la bolsa de tela acolchada que ya tenía me costó en su momento 33 euros en una tienda de música y los materiales descritos para fabricar el carro comprados en una ferretería han supuesto un total de 50,19 euros (19€ las dos ruedas fijas y el resto los ángulos 16€, tornillos y tuercas 4,99€, 8 escuadras 3,45€ y tirador inoxidable 6,75€).
El TIEMPO que he tardado en fabricar el carro una vez he tenido todos los materiales y herramientas ha sido de menos de 3 horas en total. Bueno, mejor que contarlo es que lo puedas ver así que aquí te dejo el videotutorial grabado por mi hijo Iván (con giros de cámara incluidos, perdón, jaja) con los pasos a seguir para que no tengas que sufrir cargando con tu bolsa enorme cargada de hierros, yo ya estaba harto así que como los carros que veía en el mercado no me servían para esta enorme bolsa me animé a fabricarme el carro ajustándolo a las medidas que necesitaba y no puedo estar mas contento del resultado pues para algo el hombre inventó la rueda y yo sin darme cuenta antes ¡Aghhh! Bueno, espero que a alguno de vosotros os pueda ser útil.

 "TROLLEY TO TRANSPORT THE HARDWARE OF YOUR DRUM"

Today we are going with a simple "Videotutorial" in which I show you how to make a sturdy metal trolley in a simple way to transport the heavy bag loaded with the hardware of our drum, (All the cymbals feet and the various hardware).

For this I have needed the following MATERIALS: 6.5m of perforated galvanized iron angles, 40 M8 screws and nuts, 8 M8 brackets, a metal handle and a pair of fixed wheels. I have adjusted the measurements of the car to the bag that I already had to carry the feet of dishes (which is 115 x 33 x 33).

The TOOLS that I have needed have been: a radial saw with a metal disc to cut the angles, a drilling machine with a metal bit to make the holes where the handle goes, a wrench to tighten the M8 nuts and bolts; and gloves and goggles to protect ourselves when cutting and reworking cut irons.

Regarding the BUDGET, the padded fabric bag that I already had cost me 33 euros in a music store and the materials described to make the car bought in a hardware store have amounted to a total of 50.19 euros (€ 19 per two fixed wheels and the rest the angles € 16, screws and nuts € 4.99, 8 brackets € 3.45 and stainless handle € 6.75).

The TIME it took to build the car once I had all the materials and tools has been less than 3 hours in total. Well, better than telling it is that you can see it so here is the video tutorial recorded by my son Iván (with camera turns included, sorry, haha) with the steps to follow so you don't have to suffer carrying your huge bag loaded of irons, I was already fed up so since the cars that I saw in the market did not serve me for this huge bag I was encouraged to make the car adjusting it to the measurements I needed and I cannot be more happy with the result because for something the man invented the wheel and me without realizing it beforehand Aghhh! Well, I hope some of you can find it useful.

BACK TO BLACK (AMY WINEHOUSE)

"BACK TO BLACK"

27.- Día 24 de Junio de 2018.

Hoy le dedico mi humilde homenaje a la cantante británica "AMY WINEHOUSE" (14/9/1983 - 23/7/2011) que lamentablemente falleció hace 6 años con tan solo 27 años. En concreto he escogido su famoso y conocido tema "BACK TO BLACK".

AMY JADE WINEHOUSE tenía una poderosa y emotiva voz y en sus interpretaciones y composiciones mezcló varios estilos tales como el Jazz, R&B, Ska y fundamentalmente el Soul.

En el año 2003 lanzó al mercado su álbum "FRANK" (Titulado así por la admiración que la artista le tenía a "FRANK SINATRA"), con el que obtuvo buenas críticas y exitos. Pero en el año 2006 publicó el segundo y último álbum de estudio "BACK TO BLACK", disco con el que consiguió 6 nominaciones a los Premios Grammy, ganando 5, entre otros: Canción del año, grabación del año y mejor artista nuevo. En dicho álbum podemos destacar los singles: "BACK TO BLACK" y "REHAB". Después del fallecimiento de AMY las ventas se incrementaron considerablemente en todo el mundo, llegando a ser el álbum mas vendido en lo que va de siglo XXI en el Reino Unido con más de 20 millones de copias vendidas. En 2007 ganó el BRIT Award a mejor artísta británica y en el año 2012 AMY fue incluida en el número 26 del listado de las 100 mejores mujeres de la música para la cadena VH1, entre otros reconocimientos.

AMY se hizo muy popular además de por su poder de interpretación en el escenario por otras particularidades como su particular look, su peinado, su glamour, sus tatuajes y sus problemas con las drogas y el alcohol que le llevaron a adoptar conductas autodestructivas. Desgraciadamente la encontraron muerta en su apartamento el 23/7/11 después de sufrir un colapso pues según la autopsia su cuerpo contenía un elevado nivel de alcohol.

Today I dedicate my humble tribute to the British singer "AMY WINEHOUSE" (9/14/1983 - 7/23/2011) who unfortunately passed away 6 years ago at just 27 years old. Specifically, I have chosen the famous and well-known theme of hers "BACK TO BLACK".

AMY JADE WINEHOUSE had a powerful and emotional voice and in her performances and compositions she mixed various styles such as Jazz, R & B, Ska and fundamentally Soul.

In 2003 she released her album "FRANK" (Titled thus by the admiration that the artist had for "FRANK SINATRA"), with which she obtained good reviews and success. But in 2006 he released the second and last studio album "BACK TO BLACK", an album with which he got 6 Grammy Award nominations, winning 5, among others: Song of the Year, Record of the Year and Best New Artist. In this album we can highlight the singles: "BACK TO BLACK" and "REHAB". After the death of AMY, sales increased considerably around the world, becoming the best-selling album so far in the 21st century in the United Kingdom with more than 20 million copies sold. In 2007 she won the BRIT Award for best British artist and in 2012 AMY was included in number 26 of the list of the 100 best women in music for the VH1 network, among other recognitions.

AMY became very popular in addition to her power of interpretation on stage due to other peculiarities such as her particular look, her hairstyle, her glamor, her tattoos and her problems with drugs and alcohol that led her to adopt behaviors self-destructive. Unfortunately, she was found dead in her apartment on 7/23/11 after collapsing because according to her autopsy, her body contained a high level of alcohol.

"BACK TO BLACK"

(AMY WINEHOUSE)



He left no time to regret

Kept his dick wet

With his same old safe bet

Me and my head high

And my tears dry

Get on without my guy
You went back to what you knew
So far removed from all that we went through
And I tread a troubled track
My odds are stacked
I'll go back to black.

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.

I go back to us
I love you much
It's not enough
You love blow, and I love puff
And life is like a pipe
And I'm a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside.

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to.

Black…Black…Black…Black…Black…Black…Black
I go back to
I go back to

We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to
We only said goodbye with words
I died a hundred times
You go back to her
And I go back to black.

EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE (THE POLICE)

"EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE"

26.- Día 29 de Abril de 2018.

Hoy le dedico la entrada a la mítica banda "THE POLICE", uno de mis grupos británicos preferidos de los años 80. He escogido el tema "EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE". que traducido diría algo así como "Cada vez que respires", dicha canción fue escrita por el conocido STING (Gordon Matthew Summer) y publicada dentro del álbum "SYNCHRONICITY" en el año 1983. Aunque la canción pueda parecer en principio "romántica" en realidad la letra habla de una persona controladora sobre otra en una relación de pareja "cada respiración que tomas, cada movimento que haces" tal como dijo Sting se trata sobre el amor no correspondido y sobre la obsesión con el amante perdido, sus celos y la vigilancia sobre su pareja. 

Como curiosidad mencionar que el nombre artístico de "STING" que significa aguijón proviene de un jersey de rugby a rayas amarilla y negras (como una avispa) que el bajista usaba frecuentemente en su juventud.

"THE POLICE" se formó en el año 1976, siendo sus miembros fundadores STING (Voz, bajo y teclas), STEWART COPELAND (Batería y coros) y HENRY PADOVANI (Guitarra), sustituyéndolo  a partir de agosto de 1977 ANDY SUMMERS (Guitarra, piano y coros). El sonido del grupo estuvo influenciado fundamentalmente por el rock, pop, pop-rock, new wave y el reggae que le aportaba mucha frescura a su mecla de sonidos aunque también con pinceladas de jazz, ska e incluso punk. 

El grupo publicó 5 álbumes de estudio además de algunos en directo y recopilatorios: OUTLANDOS D'AMOUR (1978), REGATTA DE BLANC (1979), ZENYATTA MONDATTA (1980), GHOST IN THE MACHINE (1981) Y SYNCHRONICITY (1983).

El trío se mantuvo unido oficialmente hasta el año 1986 llegando a vender unas 70 millones de copias en todo el mundo pero finalmente las tensiones internas y los egos entre los miembros de la banda provocaron el final del grupo. Sting comenzó su carrera en solitario ya en 1985 tendiendo a influencias de jazz y soul. Coperland participó en la composición de bandas sonoras además de continuar con la batería y Summers continuó con la guitarra colaborando con bandas de rock progresivo y jazz. Después de su disolución el grupo se ha vuelto a juntar puntualmente para realizar algunos conciertos hasta el año 2008.

La revista Rolling Stone colocó a la canción "EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE" en el puesto 84 de las 500 mejores canciones de todos los tiempos y ha sido versioneado por numerosos artístas en varios estilos como UB40, The Shadows, Gloria Gaynor, Emmerson Nogueira, Quo Vadis, Everclear, Copeland, Karen Souza, Tina Arena, Strung Out, Emi Fujita, Scala & Kolacny Brothers, 2Cellos, Telma Aoyama, Eklipse, Hannah Huston, Flame & The Rolltones, Sunflower Dead, Dilana, Pia Ashley y Voncell Solomon.

Además, el tema de PUFF DADDY "I'LL BE MISSING YOU" DE 1997 utiliza sampleando la guitarra, bajo, batería y el estribillo de "EVERY BREAK YOU TAKE". Así como la banda "MAARON 5" también utiliza la melodía en su canción publicada en 2007 "WON'T GO HOME WITHOUT YOU".

TRANSLATED TO ENGLISH:

Today I dedicate the entry to the mythical band "THE POLICE", one of my favorite British groups from the 80s. I have chosen the song "EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE". that translated would say something like "Every time you breathe", said song was written by the well-known STING (Gordon Matthew Summer) and published within the album "SYNCHRONICITY" in 1983. Although the song may seem at first "romantic" in In reality the lyrics speak of a controlling person over another in a couple relationship "every breath you take, every move you make" as Sting said is about unrequited love and the obsession with the lost lover, his jealousy and the vigilance over your partner.

As a curiosity to mention that the artistic name of "STING" which means stinger comes from a yellow and black striped rugby jersey (like a wasp) that the bass player used frequently in his youth.

"THE POLICE" was formed in 1976, its founding members being STING (Voice, bass and keys), STEWART COPELAND (Drums and backing vocals) and HENRY PADOVANI (Guitar), replacing it as of August 1977 ANDY SUMMERS (Guitar, piano and choirs). The group's sound was fundamentally influenced by rock, pop, pop-rock, new wave and reggae, which brought a lot of freshness to their mix of sounds, but also with touches of jazz, ska and even punk.

The group released 5 studio albums in addition to some live and compilation albums: OUTLANDOS D'AMOUR (1978), REGATTA DE BLANC (1979), ZENYATTA MONDATTA (1980), GHOST IN THE MACHINE (1981) and SYNCHRONICITY (1983).

The trio officially stayed together until 1986, selling some 70 million copies worldwide, but eventually internal tensions and egos among the band members led to the end of the group. Sting began his solo career as early as 1985 tending to jazz and soul influences. Coperland participated in the composition of soundtracks in addition to continuing with the drums and Summers continued with the guitar collaborating with progressive rock and jazz bands. After its dissolution, the group has reunited occasionally to perform some concerts until 2008.

Rolling Stone magazine ranked the song "EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE" at number 84 of the 500 greatest songs of all time and has been covered by numerous artists in various styles such as UB40, The Shadows, Gloria Gaynor, Emmerson Nogueira, Quo Vadis, Everclear, Copeland, Karen Souza, Tina Arena, Strung Out, Emi Fujita, Scala & Kolacny Brothers, 2Cellos, Telma Aoyama, Eklipse, Hannah Huston, Flame & The Rolltones, Sunflower Dead, Dilana, Pia Ashley and Voncell Solomon.

Also, the PUFF DADDY theme "I'LL BE MISSING YOU" from 1997 uses sampling guitar, bass, drums and the chorus from "EVERY BREAK YOU TAKE". Just as the band "MAARON 5" also uses the melody in their 2007 song "WON'T GO HOME WITHOUT YOU".

I dream at night I can only see your face
I look around, but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying, baby, baby, please..........
Oh oh oh oh oh oh....

Oh, can't you see?
