July 3, Jim Morrison desapeared. The myth goes on. 40 years later, the world don't forget The Doors, the voice, the poet, the man.

In Paris, today two concerts. Ray Manzareket (organ) and Robby Krieger (guitar) two musicians of the band will play at Bataclan
They can not use anymore the name "The Doors", but they still play "Riders on the storm", "Roadhouse", "Light my fire".

Jim Morrison fans have the choice to have another concert, at La Cigale, a britsh tribute band The Doors Alive.

The documentary (2010) below about The Doors




It's the first feature documentary about The Doors comprised of entirely unseen archival footage. 

Narrated by Johnny Depp and directed by Tom DiCillo.


Two important articles about Jim Morrisson - Le Monde et Expresso newspapers:

"Quarante après sa mort, le mystère Jim Morrison reste entier" - Le Monde.fr | Culture (French language)

" Jim Morrison continua vivo (fotogaleria) - Expresso.pt | Actualidade (Portuguese language)

And of course, you can listen the soundtrack here


“I can state definitively that one of the things I do remember is buying THE DOORS first album the day it came out and then listening to it about ten or twelve times in a row.  Both sides.  Every song.  I’ve been a fan ever since.  This movie is the story of the band but it is also an insight into a moment in time that will never be repeated.”

Dick Wolf (producer)

A day in the day of the days






Noiserv is a project that appeared in 2005 when David Santos decided to join all the material that he had achieved for a long time and turned it into something real and serious. 

After that David had played in Portugal's most important alternative scene venues and quickly had become well-known in Portuguese media and audience.

Finally on October 13, 2008, the singer-songwriter had self-release is debut full-length record called "One Hundred Miles from Thoughtlessness", which was considered as one of the best 2008 Portuguese records. 

On November the record starts to be distributed in Tokyo (Japan) with Preco records, in Manchester (UK) with Piccadilly records and also in several stores around europe. 

On April 2009 was released the first noiserv single 7” in Autumn Ferment Records, U.K., with one song of "One Hundred Miles from Thoughtlessness" - "Bullets on Parade".


In July Noiserv released the last EP called "A day in the day of the days"... a soundtrack for a day in our life... 




Well, in a sunday day in the day of days... I pick "Mr. Carousel" for a sunny break, returning from cold Brussels, after "Media & Learning Conference".
