People try to hide from their influences, as if they came up on a sound isolated from the pack. While this is the ideal, it is usually based around a scene or a love of a particular type of music. Take us, for example:
From the 60's: The Beatles, Kinks, The Who, Bowie | From the 70's: Pink Floyd, Buzzcocks, Ramones, Kraftwerk, Cheap Trick | From the 80's: New Order, Joy Division, Beastie Boys, Depeche Mode, Echo & The Bunnymen, The Cure, Thompson Twins | From the 90's: Blur, Radiohead and Nirvana
Now: Anything Box, more Anything Box. Although we also listen to Ladytron, Muse, Franz Ferdinand, Artic Monkeys, The Diary, The Lamented, Goodbye July, and more really great music.
In spite of these influences, we remain ourselves. Aren't you glad you just read all that just to have us tell you this? Er... Sorry.
Why don't you just listen to the music, dress how you like, cut your hair or leave it long, and be you. That sounds good. Oh yeah. Kiss someone. Get practice.
Sounds Like
Driving your car through a moonlit night, on your way to a club where the pulsating music will make you sweat and you will dance your brains out. Then, after that, you are driving, aware of all your surroundings, and in the morning there is no hangover, and the sun doesn't hurt your eyes. The world seems better somehow.
OR...
Being at the window of your room as you type away at your screen, feeling lonely and dejected, wishing someone would put things right. After all, things can't be that bad, right?

| Anything Box: En Castellano |
El mensaje de Anything Box es sencillo: El amor es lo único que necesitamos.
Usando sonidos digitales y una pasión por el pop más melancólico, la música de Anything Box traslade nuestros pensamientos de un mundo mal imaginado y lo cambia ha nuestras esperanzas de ese mensaje.
Si existe un sonido “pop del futuro” y “elektrodelica”, Anything Box parece haberlo encontrado, con una sensibilidad que no excluye a ninguna generación.
Música electrónica? Arte moderno? Viajadores del tiempo?
Ahí esta el misterio de Anything Box. Apaguen sus televisiones. Es hora de salir y disfrutar las noches que desaparecen con cada segundo que pasa en esta realidad.
Cuando una persona le pregunta porque Anything Box disidió hacer una canción en castellano, Claude explico que "Queríamos unir la música "Pop del Futuro" con nuestras raíces latinas. Yo nací en Argentina, Dania es del Ecuador. Y Paul es de Holanda. No es latino, pero también no es puro Americano. Su familia tiene un aire latino. Era tiempo de hacerlo, y estábamos excitados para cumplir ese gol... Aparte de eso, esa canción tiene mucho que ver con las letras del tango que mi abuelo tocaba en la casa. La versión original es en ingles, pero la inspiración era parte de mi cultura argentina..."
La canción se llama, 'Carmen', y el album es Future Past EP.

Many politicians are in the habit of laying it down as a self-evident proposition that no people ought to be free till they are fit to use their freedom. The maxim is worthy of the fool in the old story who resolved not to go into the water till he had learned to swim. ~ Safe and Sane Fourth of July... All My Love xxx
