Bond, not the agent

Bond - One of the most famous (and hot :cool: ) Groups of today, bringing new meaning to classical music. This modern string quartet takes classical sounds and electronic sounds to make a new genre that absolutely ROCKS. What are you thoughts? Which of their songs is your favorite? I love ALL of them :animesmil :D

I hope you like them too. :cool:

[COLOR=maroon]As a violinist, I'm always interested in new and upcoming things in the world of strings. However, bond (lowercase, yes, because the proper version was already copyrighted) is not necessarily something exclusive to classical music. There are several areas - such as dance, lifestyles, and dining - that promote the new "cross-over" culture.

I like bond, as their taste in classical music rocks, and their modernization of these pieces is simply amazing - both from an audiophile and technique point of view. I'm always amazed at how talented or gifted these four are, especially the cellist! and Lullaby has to be my favorite song, making a shorter and therefore more enjoyable Canon by Pachelbel. However, [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xf-ge421Vt8]their music videos[/url] are not the most... wonderful things.[/COLOR]

Yes, I understand that they're not classical music's first cross-over group, however, I fins their music videos to be modern and they very well exhibit their music. They are very well trained and I, as a professional cellist, I find their music a breath if fresh air. It's something new and exciting. But, of course, my heart will always have a soft spot for classical music.

I'm a violinist as well, and I like bond. Their music is a good mix of new and old, but not in a tacky way (as have others that have tried). I only have one of their CD's, [I]Shine[/I] but I'd love to get more of them (I'm broke at the moment, so...yeah. Christmas, definately Christmas). Though I must admit that the video that Azure Wolf posted was kind of confusing. Why would the military care about music or dancing? :animestun But they still play good music though. :)

That was the video for [I]Explosive[/I] and it was filmed in Cuba. The blackboard that read [I]Transmissión Illegál[/I] referred to an illegal radio broadcast. From what I've read, it represents a lot of clubs broadcasting illegal radio transmissions. The MP's storm in and attempt to take the broadcasters (bond) but fail.

[quote name='Decca Music Video Group][I']It represents defiance and the will to be an individual. It's meant to be inspirational.[/I][/quote]

That's what I read about it.

Ta ta,
