Almost three months after the last release, the excellent "House Plants " of Pinkle, comes the excellent German netlabel aaahh records . The new release is signed by the musician ; Falcon Nicolas, born in Houston, the son of Cuban immigrants, grew up in Miami and Philadelphia and now living in Milan. In this self-titled release Nicolas presents nine excellent songs that affected much of the influence of the Beatles and a lot of music of the years 60/70. Especially in some vocal timbres and certain melodies (Cyanide Surprise) Paul McCartney presents a lively link brain. Songs that are sheltered from the cold, soft and warm blankets for the last days of winter. Simple structures and melodies that run on a fine wire melancholy ("I promise," "Reality to me," What I Know About You "), text sometimes romantic and sometimes smooth and enjoyable. The tools are reduced to essentials, guitar and voice always on top, the effective power is very lo-fi appears sporadically (his formidable presence on the recording in the bedroom in "Tall Oak Tree" and "A Thousand Times) . An album to listen to the crackling of wood in the fireplace, in a small mountain hut, in the company of his love, looking for reflections of the rhythmic fire in the eyes of others. Or, alternatively, and a bit ' less romantically, while you're ironing a pile of crumpled clothes. The warmth and welcoming atmosphere that can transmit are effective in both situations.
