The cd will be released in Japan (doh!) and will feature ten tracks with all the classic elements you could expect in a orchestral soundtrack.

British Gaming Blog has some of the tracks and they sound fantastic. It’s worth checking out. Phoenix Wright is a fantastic game on its own, a new concept which brings back memories of old point-and-click adventures for PC and I really recommend it for anyone who has a DS.

It’s great news, I love my DS Lite and I bring it with me everywhere. I’m eager to know more about this device from Nintendo itself, other alternatives don’t inspire me much trust. As an alternative for those who can run homebrew software, there’s also Moonshell which is a very good effort.

More news about the Nintendo MP3 Player at Generation DS.

It was a fantastic concert with many songs from their new album – The Life Pursuit – which is in my opinion one of their best, with excellent melodies and great lyrics, taking alot of inspiration from the 70′s.

There was also time for some songs from previous albums, like “The Boy with the Arab Strap” which is also a terrific album. In overall it was a very good night with a great environment and with all their great songs which make you smile in the end.

Too bad it was monday, I’ll have to go to work all sleepy today.

3) Gotan Project
A mixture of Tango, Rnb, dance music and other genres with some great beats of sound, really worth seeing, plus they just released a new album so there’s new musics to ear and dance.

2) Sigur Ros
Symphonic melodies, strange and beautifull sounds a mixture of music with emotions is what you can expect from this concert. I really liked their last album, it’s like nothing you’ve ever heard.

1) Belle and Sebastian
Fresh with a recent new album, Belle and Sebastian come to show their english sounds, excellent melodies and great lyrics vastly inspired from the 70′s. Not to miss.

Well, I guess i’ll see you there in a month or two.

1) Nick Cave – B-Sides & Rarities

A box with 3 cds filled with b-sides and unreleased material, a must-buy for any Nick Cave fan.

2) Gorillaz – Demon Days

A must antecipaded album (at least for me), I loved the mixtures of diferent genres that Albarn has made in this cd, the guest performances also help this become a very diferent and creative album.

3) Arcade Fire

Great mix of instruments ranging from guitars to violins, organs, guitars and others make each song played from Arcade Fire a great joy to listen. One of my personal discoveries this year.

4) Block Party – Silent alarm

Kele Okereke’s vocal clearly distinguish Block Party from other punk, indie, rock bands. Very energetic and dynamic. They even made a contract with Vodafone to participate in their ads, how nice is that?

5) Franz Ferdinand – You Could Have It So Much Better

You Could Have it So Much Better is a strong follow up to Franz Ferdinand’s first album. Full of great powerful songs, creative writing and feauturing guitars and drums and cool beats, just do yourself a favor and take this home.

Well, these were my top 5 for this year, do agree with me or have a different list? Let me know about your top 5.
