quindici Sono passati dieci anni e album di Antonio Luque dall'esordio record deal with the pesudonimo Mr. Chinarro e, come racconta lui stesso in un'intervista Him Country-Madrid (Concessoes concerto in occasione di ieri nella capitale spagnola be), il suo successo di gradual increase has colto un po 'di surprise ("I noticed that suddenly, more people began to come to concerts and received more attention in the media. But all at a normal level, I have not become rich or anything like). In realtà, l'Coglio only thing veramente che di surprise is to think of what the author sevillano is, still, underestimated, both at home and abroad. One thing must be said at once: if Morrissey was born in Seville, Antonio Luque would be called. And besides, the world is divided into two categories: those who love Chinarro Sr., and those who do not know. Tertium non datur .
In recent years, especially Rockdelux English Bible-the magazine's music scene (more or less) independent, which has always led in the palm of your hand-helped shape the cult underground Antonio Luque, Linear his songs, his voice grave, his lyrics peculiar; it becomes a author of reference for an entire generation grew up with Radio Nacional 3, creating a real myth around his introverted figure, far from the media centers of the country, not piaciona (among others, Agustín Fernández Mallo -the most important English literary event in recent years with interesting and post-modern " Nocilla dream" - claims to be a fan already in the back cover of his book, as if he wore a pin on the cardigan). I remember a television interview with his in which he said that people sometimes are surprised by its ordinariness when it is confronted, perhaps on a stage, for the first time, but he has not done so and going to change, because there is no need to have a thing to be a musician to musician. In fact, Luque seems someone who works in a record store, rather than a hard-won-that composes them. It is no accident that until a few years ago and discs, still work in a factory near Malaga, where he proudly lives a stone's throw from the sea.
Without exaggerating, I always thought that Chinarro Sr. is the best that exists in the current European music. This is for the very high average quality of its productions, for the continuous improvement that conceals any new work, a human and musical path that has never needed to compromise with the cultural industry and the public taste, strong intensity, beauty and dell'ineguagliabilità of his songs. At a time when the musical phenomena of the moment are displayed on the covers of magazines on a monthly basis as if they were new offerings on the menu of McDonald's, only to be forgotten next month, in which only three songs because one group is shown in 'Olympus of great, until you reach a new group whose elements have the most Scazzi face, the more analysis cardigan, jeans shorter, the most conspicuous frames of the glasses, the arrangements most neglected, and of course titles piacioni; where discs are mounted with the three individual radio that everyone knows and the rest are songs of very inferior quality, at a time so superficial, you can not resist the allure of Chinarro Sr., with its apparent immobility, its continuous research staff, despite the ostracism of his stubbornness current intensity, intelligence and depth of its language and its images, its sincere dedication to their work. The size of Chinarro Sr. is in his records and his songs perfect, where nothing is missing and where nothing is too much. If I had to make a parallel with the world of cinema, then think of Aki Kaurismaki, who is also the best there is in European cinema today, and for the same reasons: poetic coherence, high quality media productions, sincerity, a privilege of the naked force of the images. Or talking about art, the mind turns to the great Antoni Tàpies.
What then, you can bet: introverted style, personal, simple, terribly original Antonio Luque will eventually affect, in a changing, the future leaders of the English independent music scene, which, in a way or another, they will not deal with him - a bit 'as has happened in the UK with the figure of Jarvis Cocker, or in Italy by Fabrizio De Andrè.
At the end of games, and paradoxically, the only one not fully satisfied with the career 
Music Sr. Chinarro is just Antonio Luque. There is no occasion on which you can not remember his interlocutor the difficulty of playing, if not to recognize the songs of his first (seven) discs (almost all published by independent Acuarela), and the turning point that meaning in its path the album "El fuego amigo", 2005, not so much in content, but because of the quality and resources used in the recording. Undoubtedly, the last three records sound "better", if you want more pop, and if this is certainly not a worse (as is unfortunately like to think, rather uncritically, many people, thinking that making indie reviews Darsi bisogno tone alterites impiego the futile stessa dei gruppi modaiola recensiti), di per sè non è neanche a meglio, e allora fa ascoltare Antonio Luque Tenerezza seeded quasi che per il suo passato giustificarsi più lo-fi :

Maybe I should have changed the name. I was never a rocker, or mod, or nothing, and I made up a group in which I hid by letters sometimes too rare. Some are still like, but most of my early songs discos me siento a little ridiculous. Is a serious anachronism intentara tocarlas ahora .
Anyone wanting to find in the past, will find gestures, words, shirts, girls who find it hard to recognize, and will try that feeling somewhere between melancholy and ridiculous that generates the vision of a roll of photos came out suddenly from a shelf in the living room. And this feeling is purely subjective, because it serves no purpose other rincuorino us about the goodness of those experiences. Similarly, it is right and it is common Antonio Luque did not care if his fans still love the old songs. On stage, we salt it, and must be able to sing he likes. For the nostalgia of fans there are always hard.
Nevertheless, there is no denying that the Chinarro Sr. has always scattered in all his albums, starting from the first songs that deserve to be fully inserted into the lineup for each concert (think "El idilio of 1998, which remains a gem unmatched). For this reason, last night, the only sin of an awesome, tight, precise, intense, was the absolute oblivion as its memorable past has been relegated (except the monumental "Quiromàntico" the encore). I say shame, because it is the nostalgia, if not curiosity, to imagine those songs that you hear- most-played live in an imperfect in some smoky concert hall in Seville, and went down in the nineties and Andalusia did not even know what it was, as we were intent on discovering how the fuck you came to the party of eighteen at 'Olgiata.
