Aquí Maurice Rugit en Moulin Rugit FM. Esta mañana tenemos una radio entrevista   con la amante de riff s de guitarra, la rockera colombiana Innita, presentándonos "Blueless" y el argumento detallado de su próximo álbum llamado "20/20".

En un movimiento audaz, lanzaste el sencillo "Blueless" ayer, una canción synthpop, cero guitarras, como el primer sencillo de 20/20. Sabemos que te encanta rockera duro con las guitarras, así que, ¿qué hay está detrás de este fuerte cambio de dirección?
Bueno, no es realmente un cambio de sonido, es más bien un espectro más amplio de melodías en mi trabajo. Me gusta mucho hacer discos conceptuales. Mi álbum de debut, "Rockanrose" fue un álbum conceptual también, pero este nuevo es más largo, cuatro veces más. El fondo narrativo es más detallado en esta ocasión, con más cambios de estados de ánimo tanto en la historia misma como en sus personajes. Por lo tanto, "20/20" podría ser percibida como una especie de banda sonora, y ésto significa la necesidad de componer de una manera ecléctica. Aunque es principalmente un álbum de rock con base en guitarra eléctrica, incluye algunas canciones para piano, y canciones synthpop, y canciones acústicas.

"Blueless" tienen ese “feel” de sintetizador 80, y sus letras de ltemática deera espacial nos deja saber algunas de las temáticas involucradas, ¿o me equivoco? Pódria decir que es una historia de ciencia-ficción.
En realidad no. 20/20 se trata de estar despistado en este mundo. 20/20 se refiere a la vanidad, el dinero, amores perdidos, amigos perdidos, esperanzas borrosas, la búsqueda del éxito, y por supuesto la ingenuidad que lleva tener sueños. Por lo tanto, quiero que incluya ese tipo de canción de anhelo de amor, ingenuo-feliz y sí, muy años 80s como dijiste, dentro del tono predominantemente oscuro de la historia. 20/20 tiene   picos emocionales rosa y valles emocionales de color azul oscuro, igual que el par cian/magenta 3d. Es por eso que he llamado "Blueless" este primer sencillo. Esta canción es un pico ligero y entusiasta perdido en el valle salvaje profundo de la condición humana. Es optimista.

Ayer también diste a conocer el tracklist completo de 20/20, de 40 canciones de largo, compendio dividido en 10 capítulos. ¡Inmenso! Con los títulos, confieso que estoy bastante intrigado por la historia. ¿Puedes dar un resumen exclusivo para nuestros oyentes ... .. y también para mí?
Ok, Ok, pero debes saber sé que lso presentadores de programa de radio usan sus oyentes de una manera cortés para contar con invitados wue den avances en exclusiva para ustedes (risas). No es que sea problema para mí. De hecho, te voy a dar una sinopsis extendida, si ese término tiene sentido (risas).

Me muero por escucharla.
20/20 tiene tres personajes principales: Polly Wood , la actriz de San Diego que estrelló suRolls-Royce , tiene ella tiene ese estilo Lindsay Lohan-esco. Magenta Rojas , escritora con problemas de dinero nacida en Tijuana, la mayor y mejor amiga de infancia de Polly , 4-5 años más que Polly, ella tiene ese mala suerte Kafkiana. Y Cyanne D'arc , una bailarina Parisina de ballet, ex de Magenta, con la misma edad que la de Wood, 20.

Con tu misma edad.
Sí, pero no es una especie de relato autobiográfico.

Continúa, por favor, no voy a interrumpirte más. No puedo esperar (guiño).
(Burlas) Muy bien. La historia comienza con Polly Wood salvádnose del mencionado accidente en su Rolls Royce, consecuencia de un colapso emocional trastornado al ser abandonado por su novia días atrás. Y días después del accidente, Polly supo que su amiga más cercano de la infancia, Magenta, murió por inanición. Como que su vieja amiga lo hizo a propósito, mezcla de depresión económica y emocional transformada en un suicidio lento al parar de comer, y Polly se pregunta acerca de ella habiendo sobrevivido y ser millonaria y exitosa, en contraste con Magenta, [literalmente] muerta de hambre. La Policía apartamento Magenta encuentra un manuscrito inédito en español, una novela autobiográfica llamada "Hambre". El libro se publica y es un gran éxito, best-seller. Y así, una adaptación de Hollywood del libro se pone en marcha, lanzando a Polly en el papel de Magenta.

Ups.
Sí. La película es un éxito de taquilla. Magenta gana de manera póstuma una gran fanaticada tanto de culto como “mainstream”. Polly se halla en un sentimiento de culpa desde que la película comenzó y en un nivel superior -o inferior , dependiendo del punto de vista- ahora, sintiéndose muy incómoda siendo más rica y más famosa usando la vida de Magenta, como si su propia vida fuera vacía en sí. Y echando sal a las herida, la ex-novia de Magenta, Cyanne, termina conociendo a Polly personalmente, para luego salir con ella y enamorarse de ella. Cyanne ve en Polly la segunda parte, viva, de Magenta (Innita ríe oscuramente).

Definitivamente tiene el sabor de ópera rock hasta ahora. Por favor, continúa.
Gracias! (Innita le muestra una gran sonrisa). Premio de la Academia a la Mejor Actriz es ganado por Polly por su papel de Magenta, pero aún con eso, la relación de Polly-Cyanne es víctima de los paparazzi y la prensa amarillista. Y la industria de televisión ve beneficio en esto, convenciendo a Polly de hacer una comedia burlona Larry David-esque de su vida, con situaciones de humor negro acerca de ser exitoso a expensas de la muerte de su amiga, así como tener la ex-novia de su amiga muerta de ganancia romántica. Y después .... en este punto,   felizmente he estropeado detalles de la historia pero no quiero echar a perder diciendo conclusión de 20/20. Por supuesto, si yo fueera una escritora , no hubiera dicho nada sino unas unas pocas palabras de la trama. Pero esto es sólo Rock 'N' Roll, y me gusta que sea así (guiño).

"Too Much Information", citando a Duran Duran, pero en el buen sentido. Este fue regalo súper tamaño gift.You me dejó mucho que pensar. Aunque sé que te quedas aquí en París desde hace varios meses, tiempo que por tenerte a ti de nuevo, pronto, quizá la próxima semana, en sesiones en vivo de "Blueless".
Oh la la, Cest trés chic. Por supuesto voy a estar aquí.

OK! Bueno, Innita, tengo que confesar que en Moulin Rugit FM ya hicimos el afiche de Innita sesión en vivo, Au revoir!
(Risas) Está bien, siempre y cuando no se coloques risas pregrabadas [estilo sitcom] en esta entrevista en vivo!

Mi Innita había regresado feliz de aquella entrevista en vivo en “Moulin Rugit" , una pequeña e independiente radio estación Parisina de rock y actualidad. Oí el tintinear rápido de sus llaves dejadas en la cocina y aquel tipo de agitación que ya me era muy familiar, esa risa de burbujas que nunca había dejado atrás después de su infancia. Ahora era en un tono algo más ronco y aterciopelado, pero sin importar el timbre, la frescura de su felicidad explosiva segundos antes de estallar seguía intacta, tal cual estaba registrada en aquellos videos de sus primeros años de secundaria que a los pocos días que empezaráraos a salir me mostró. Mi Innita subió las escaleras para buscarme en la tina, seguramente olisqueó desde el pasillo, o incluso desde el ascensor, el olor algo recargado del vapor de hierbas aromáticas que era imposible no escapara desde nuestro duplex. Minutos atrás había terminado de tomarme un relajante y largo baño caliente en la tina, en una tosca pero divertida imitación de sauna aromático, y ahora me hallaba probándome el nuevo intento de perfume, áun en sus primeras pruebas, que llevaría su nombre, “Innita”, preparándonos de antemano a su rol de diva del rock, justamente dentro de los parámetros que su obra en progreso, "20/20", manifestaba en algunas de sus canciones con sarcasmo. No importaba, era un juego. Llegar a París era como si hubiéramos llegado a las Vegas: Intimidad atrevida entre las dos, pero fuera de esa cápsula, todo era juego y apuestas. Pero habíamos aceptado jugarlo: ya estábamos contagiados de la vanidad descarada que pulula en las adoquinadas calles de París, y no nos importaba. A pesar del pesado legado del sinsabor de algunos apartes de nuestras vidas antes de encontrarnos, éramos felices. No nos habíamos casado, estábamos lejos incluso de pensar en comprometernos, pero desde que llegamos al suelo galo, meses atrás, vivíamos una inusual e inoficial luna de miel. Cuando Innita entró en la habitación se lanzó contra mí, cayendo ambas en la cama con largos besos, innecesarios de palabras, por 40 minutos. O quizás fue una hora. Después de besarnos, ahondamos ya desnudas en nuestras suaves pero felinas caricias íntimas, lo que nos llevó casi otra hora más, para finalmente derrocar con su relato el imperante y agradable silencio cómodo de la habitación. Me contó de la radio-entrevista con el mismo ímpetu y detalle que me contó cuando compró su primera guitarra eléctrica. Una emoción sin esquinas ni dobleces, pura y directa. Había algo auténtico en el interés desatado durante su cita en la pequeña emisora independiente, interés que incluso no había producido en Innita el entusiasmo de haber salido en la portada de la respetadísima Rocking Stone. Obviamente la publicación empezaría a abrirle más puertas, más oyentes y más ciudades para cuando realizar su próxima gira, y el artículo de agosto había sido muy bien recibido por el numeroso y cosmopolita público internacional que lee la revista. Pero el interés que percibió en la emisora le había recordado lo que era sentir un eco auténtico de su música entre sus aficionados más entusiastas y genuinos. Las palabras de mi Innita decoradas con el brillo en sus pecas estrellas no podían hacer más sino transmitirme casi eléctricamente la fiebre de ese mismo júbilo. El júbilo por las cosas sencillas en un medio lleno de máscara sobre máscara. Esa energía fundía nuestras fibras más inocentes y primitivas, me desataba una dulce y salvaje euforia: mi parte mamífera quería mimarla y mi parte reptil quería seguir devorándola a besos, y mi deseo, generado por ella, se devolvía hacia ella de la misma manera reptil y mamífera. Yo, siendo bióloga, sólo podía traducir su testimonio a mi propia cotidianidad con el entusiasmo del paso a paso que había vivido con mis pruebas partenogenéticas y que ahora vivía con mis nuevos experimentos. Y sí, somos conscientes de ser una pareja que aparentemente no encajaría. Ciencia y arte, agua y aceite. Quién lo creyera. Ya 2 años juntas y nuestro beso más reciente tenía el mismo encanto de nuestro primer beso.

No para Innita.

(note: unpolished English)
This is Maurice Rugit on Moulin Rugit FM. This morning we have a liveradio interview with Guitar-riff-lover Colombian rocker Innita presenting “Blueless” and a detailed plot of her upcoming second album called "20/20".

In a bold move, you released “Blueless” yesterday, a guitarless synthpop song as the first 20/20 single . We know you love rock hard with guitars, so what is behind this strong change of direction?
Well, It's not really a sound change, it's more a wider spectrum of tunes in my work. I really like doing concept albums. My debut album, “Rockanrose” was a concept album too, but this new one is larger, four times more. The narrative background is more detailed this time, with more changes of moods in the story itself as well as in its characters. So, “20/20” could be perceived as a kind of soundtrack, and it means the need for composing in a eclectic way. Although it's mainly an electric guitar-driven rock album, I include some piano songs and synthpop songs and acoustic songs.

“Blueless” have that 80s synth feeling, and its space-age themed lyrics let us know some of the thematic involved, or am i wrong? I could tell it's a sci-fi story.
Not really. 20/20 is about being clueless in this world. 20/20 deals with vanity, money, lost loves, lost friends, blurred hopes, the pursuit of success, and of course the naivety that brings having dreams. So, I want to include that naive-happy longing-love song type, and yes, very 80s as you said, in the predominantly dark tune of the story. 20/20 has that pink emotional peaks and deep-blue valleys, as the 3d cyan/magenta pair. That's why I called “Blueless” this first single. This song is a light upbeat peak lost into the wild deep valley of the human condition. It's optimistic.

Yesterday you also released the complete 20/20 tracklist, 40 songs-lenght compendium divided in 10 chapters. Huge! With the titles, I confess I 'm pretty intrigued about the story. Can you give an exclusive synopsis to our listeners ….. and to me as well?
Ok, Ok, but you must know I know you Radio show hosters use their listeners in a polite way of having guests giving exclusive previews for yourselves (Laughs). It's not that I'm not Ok with that. In fact, I'll give you an extended synopsis, if that term makes sense (Giggles).

I'm dying to hear it.
20/20 has 3 main characters: Polly Wood, San Diego-Born Rolls-Royce crasher actress, she has that Lindsay Lohan-esque vibe. Magenta Rojas, a money-troubled Tijuana-Born Writer, the older and best Polly's friends in her childhood, 4-5 years older than Polly, she had that Kafka-esque hard luck life. And Cyanne D'arc, a Parisienne Ballet dancer, Magenta's ex-girlfiriend, same age as Wood's, 20.

Same age as you.
Yes, but it is not a kind of autobiographical story.

Please, go on, I won't interrupt you anymore. I can't wait (wink).
(Sneers)All right. The story begins with Polly Wood surviving her aforementioned Rolls Royce crash, as a result of a deranged emotional collapse by being dumped by her girlfriend days ago. And days after the crash, Polly learnt her childhood closest friend, Magenta, died by starvation. It's like her old friend did it on purpose, mix of economical and emotional depression transformed in a slow suicide by stop eating, and Polly wanders about she having survived and being rich and sucesssful, in contrast with Magenta, dead poor. In Magenta's apartment, Police finds an unpublished Spanish-written manuscript of her, an autobiographical novel called “Hambre” (Hunger). The book is published and it's a huge sucess, best-seller. And so, a Hollywood adaptation of the book is on the run, casting Polly as play the role of Magenta.

Oops.
Yes. The film is a blockbuster. Magenta gains posthumus both cult and mainstream fandom. Polly found herself in a guilt trip since the film started and in a higher level -or lower depending of the viewpoint- now, feeling very uncomfortable being richer and more famous by using the Magenta's life, as if her own life was empty itself. And rubbing salt into wounds, Magenta's ex-girlfriend, Cyanne, ends up knowing Polly personally, and then dating her and falling in love with her. Cyanne sees in Polly as Magenta's live sequel (Innita darkly giggles).

Definetely a rock opera vibe so far. Please go on.
Thanks! ( Innita shows him a big smile). Academy Award for Best Actress is winned by Polly for her role as Magenta, but even with that, the Polly-Cyanne relationship is victimized by both paparazzi and yellow journalism. And TV industry sees profit on this, convincing Polly of doing a Larry David-esque self-mocking sitcom of her life, with dark humor situations about being sucessful at expenses of her friend's death as well as having her dead firend's ex-girlfriend as a romantic gain too. And then …. at this point I've happily spoiled too much but I don't want to spoil all of it by telling 20/20's conclusion. Of course, if I was a writer I hadn't tell you nothing but a few words of the plot. But this is only Rock 'N' Roll, and I like it that way ( winks).

“ Too Much Information”, citing Duran Duran, but in a good way. This was a super sized-gift.You left me too much to think. Althought I know you stay here on Paris for several months, I will long for having you again, soon, maybe next week, in a live sessions of “Blueless”.
Oh la la, Cést trés chic. Of Course I'll be here.

OK! Well, Innita, I have to confess we on Moulin Rugit FMmake the Innita live session poster already, Au revoir!
(Laughs) It's Ok , as long as you don't put [sitcom style] laugh track on this live interview!

"I used to be with you
Used to be with me
We
Far now.... .

One used to be in two
Used to be indeed,
Free
And now.... .

You're so blue, you're like earth
I'm so far, I'm like sun
This love inside of me
If I hold I burn
Kind of one-way sunbeam
The more I give
The more you live ..... Be near me

I don’t know who I am
But your existence
Makes me feel
I'm a miracle
..... I'm a miracle".

“Innita no para”, the Rocking Stone interview, conclusion.by Beth Salavarrieta.

Do you hear an specific kind of music/bands in your period of composing? Or you just shut down the door to outside influences?
I think everything is connected, my songs are the direct result of what I perceive and live, it's not the result of self-mposed magic isolated environment for a more inventive composing gain. I don't transform my routine in the days I compose, I keep tasting new/old music as a chef keep eating 3 meals per day in his labour days. There are several influences behind my songs. Being Rockanrose my debut album, it was filled with ideas and songs I started to write since my 14, and you can feel some ingredients as 80s hard-rock bands, 90's Garbage, 00's Muse, naming a few. “20/20” is the next logical step, more matured concept and structure of what, in my terms, an album should be. In the ongoing process of composing my new album, you will found a wider range of influence, because it's an album filled with more diverse styles. From 80's The Cars + Slayer, passing through 90's Tori Amos + Nine Inch Nails + Radiohead's 'Ok Computer' to 00's Interpol + Katy Perry. When you have an album thematized with “visions” I let myself permit everything in Rock/Pop.

Kind of you are taking big steps in just your second album.
Not really. Or maybe. Maybe it's I'm feeling more confident and less angry these days. I've become more philosophical and at the same time dumber. It's like I keep putting more water in my half-empty glass but the glass stays the same, like it's something is missing, and this doesn't make me mad nor sad, but smiling, kind of an odd way. Some weeks ago my girlfriend told me the most beautiful compliment I've ever heard o read: “Darling, you aren't Alice, you're the smartest in the tale. I'm Alice and you're my Cheshire Kitty”. I strongly blushed. She defines my attitude nowadays. I felt everything is absurd, but it doesnn't affect my smile, it isn't dissapear. I always knew I was a cat person, but I never thought someone sees me as the Chesire cat.

Sunday, August 7.
Still having pretty fresh that big pink smile in my memories, I wonder about Innita and how to end this article. I felt satisfied all these days hanging around her and her girlfriend, a happy duet in terms of romance, but more amazing it's being witness of seeing a scientifst and a musician in the same page and doing so well. That friday night has as a closure a little adavnced hearing of some songs. And yes I like it: simple, non-pretentious, some power riffs and some tasteful pianos. I'm start to feel eager for her new album. Or better, seeing her onstage. I'm almost sure her smile will be tattoed in new cat fans too.

“Innita no para”, the Rocking Stone interview, 3.

Paris, France.

What can you tell us about your upcoming album?
"20/20 will be a magenta/cyan 40-songs double album extravaganza, eclectic-oriented style, from speed-metal to synth-pop to acoustic ballads, filled with magic, daltonism, naive epiphanies and both repaired-broken heart and guitars: the usual stuff rock 'n' roll shouts. I found Rock as the best place to talk about hopes, love, timeless and wisdomless without even trying to make a point. I think we humans aged clueless, our vision is filled with more experiences year after year for sure, but it is not a linear equation standing for “the older the wiser”. It is not true. The older ones don't rule the world, even the oldest have just filled with fear, resigned lukewarm happiness and regrets. 20/20 is about how all humans, all-ages, are bonded with one single fact: we're clueless. But in every step of our lifetime we have the ability to invent fantasy to repair that.

Oops, it sounds like 20/20 will be heavily pessimistic.
Quite the contrary. For example, I think real love has to be irrationally optimistic to survive. Love is blind and deaf and even “always crashing in the same car” as Bowie said. But in the end, it's the only thing that matters. Love is worth crashing.

40 songs …..it's huge.
Well, It has been more than 2 years since I wrote all my first record and I love to compose songs too much. Since then, and during my 2010 Rockanrose Tour, I have been composing here and there, wondering about things about myself, the world, my relationship, the people I've known, the fans, and then, how mixing all of this in songs and lyrics. I'm not too skilled in writing long stories, as a novel, I'd wish I could do that by now, but I'm still that high school 'silly-nerdy-outcast' poem-writing girl, so I want to solve that making my way, doing that novel as a compilation of songs. Rockanrose tells a story too, of course, but 20/20 is 4 times larger, and so, much more detailed, and musically more eclectic.

You call yourself “nerdy”, I couldn't call you that... you know, I alway perceive you more like a badass rock girl, and martial artist …. and bungee jumper minutes ago.
Nerds can rock too! (laughs). I dislike to talk about my personal history in press. But yes, I had a strong nerdy-side back in school days. It's all I will say.

As we see it during your Rockanrose Tour days, you don't have necessarily a permanent live line-up. In fact, some ex-partners of you found unbearable touring with you, for your frequent fights onstage. But will you have to set permanent live musicians, as long as you have described “20/20” kind of musical novel?
I don't see myself dealing with a permanente band as U2 does. I mean, I'm not in a band, I've constructed my musical career more like a solo project. I know I'd had troubles with live musicians in my first world-wide tour, and that's precisely the reason-why I don't crave for a loyal live band. If the time comes for that, it will happen naturally. I don't want to concede things about my show just for a live musician's sake.

Is the 20/20's 3d parafernalia due to anything in particular happens to you?
I dislike the new 3-d cinema fever, I don't like those movies, it seems technology is not quite well, and it results in a bad fake, I mean, it's almost a headache to me. I guess I did it on purpose, like Batman using bat as his symbol. But I use vintage 3-d, it's more lovable, more naive. If you want to be a fake, be a a good one (laughs).

"What if John Lennon had been Jimi Hendrix and Yoko Ono had been Janis Joplin? This is one of my best and silliest 'what if' dreams I've had. You know, "what if" implies taking another road, usually it's a remorse issue, but in my dream was comic and romantic. Past December [2010], I dreamed about what if The Beatles had been North-Americans. What if John Lennon had been Jimi Hendrix, Paul McCartney been James Brown, George Harrison been Smokey Robinson, Ringo Starr been Curtis Mayfield, and Yoko Ono had been Janis Joplin. No joking, I was Janice Ono in the dream, I wasn´t lesbian, I was hetero, you know, a dream."

Rockanrose review, October 2009.

2011-09-19T16:44:00.002-05:00

“Rockanrose”, song by song review.
Bloody Loops, October 2009 Issue.
London, UK.
By Jeffrey Mallow.

Wildflower eighteen Colombian rocker Innita throws kicks in the same way a rose shows thorns: beautifully dangerous. She is known by her infamous but classy habit of kicking cocky male ass. But, as the plant does, she brings flowers too. In fact, the motto of her debut album is “The important thing about thorns is the rose”. In case you haven't hear “Rockanrose”, Innita's debut album, released weeks ago, we've reviewed it here for you, song by song. The pink-albino rocker refers to her album in her own explanatory attitude: “Rockanrose is about being as dreamy and feminine and polite and sweet as you feel and at the same time being as foot-grounded as tough and defensive as the enviroment that surrounds you requires”, This attituded makes her gaining rapidly female girl-empowered fans throught the world. The Rockanrose Tour opened same day as release, 09.09.09, and it will be played in the London Rocktober feast-ival 2009 during her European schedule. So, if you are a Brit cocky guy and plan to go nasty and curse her and go up on her stage next saturday october 17, be prepared for being punished, Muay Thay wounds guaranteed. In the mean time, let's go for a botanic lessons inside the the Rockanrose acronym garden:

1. Rose Is The New Black. An instant classic. A catchy, powerful, and bright song opens the pink world of Innita, bringing you wild and happy energy with the explosive combination of solos, chorus and effective keyboards that will stuck in your head and blood. Her first single, the first hit, smart move.

2. Orygyns. Lenghty, narrative and passionately instrospective in an art rock style, this song offers great guitars served as slow-food cake. Innita puts semi-confesional lyrics on this one, like a post-modern presentation card played in stereo. Take your time to taste every second of it.

3. Cnemidophorus Exsanguis 1. Innita confessed she had doubts about this lyrics, not just for the nerdy flavor, but for the personal life involvement. In this song, she openly praises and celebrates the work of her newly girlfriend : the discovery of a parthenogenetic gene infertile women and women with reproductive problems And yeah, its title and lyrics imply a sequel.

4. Kiss My Thorns. A power ballad with bleeding lyrics in sadness, isolation, self-pity and true love. Nuff said.

5. Amo Amar.. This punk-thrash-stylized anthem quickly defined Innita's live shows since she began to perform back in 2007: uplifting take-no-prisoners party-animal celebrations. Take note to the dialogue between bass and guitar raw dances here.

6. Nobody Naked Seems To Be An Enemy: The title tells all: In a non-slow melancholic mood, Innita bleeds her thoughts and feelings about nudism as a natural urge in a clothed society. Innita's response to the being censored for her 2008 Woodstock barely legal striptease.

7. Ruleta Rosa. Power girl oriented song again, this one is the charismatic anthem which Innita uses to open her live shows.

8. O Varios. In this one I need to cite mainstream pop/rock as reference, but don't worry, is intened to be a compliment.The intro prepares you softly to the posterior alluring slow-paced sexual/sexy dance in a blend of progressive arpegios and Kravitz-sounds-alike-percussion. Romantic, honest and spicy with class, this song seems ahead of Innita's age, with this thirty-something relationship lyrics.

9. Single. Deliberatedly Innita composed this one wondering herself “If I want to be build a single in a radio-edit airplayed way, how I would do it?” This is her own answer, with a single status themed lyrics, of course (wink).

10. Elope. I have to say this 10 minutes closure song is my favorite of the album. The first time I did hear it I easily felt related with this one. It's almost a relief when you want to being immersed in a hopeless romantic atmosphere, with that runaway “let's forget the world and let's be just you and me” mood. This final cut brings a melodic deep-cold isolated piano loop ending, almost as if the couple were fading away after cutting their wrists, but no, Innita is not that Shakespearean, it's just me by being born in the land of Romeo and Juliet's writer.

“Innita no para”, la entrevista Rocking Stone, 2.
por Beth Salavarrieta.

Viernes, 5 de agosto.
París, Francia.

Innita me citó ayer para vernos hoy en el restaurante trés chic del mundo: “Dimanche Bleu”, el restaurante que sigue ganando el record de mayor número de reseñas positivas desde que fue abierto hace año y medio. De hecho, las reservas están agotadas para lo que queda del 2011 y primera mitad del 2012, y si Innita consiguió invitación para mí es porque ella y su banda van a tocar hoy, y claro está, cenaremos junto con su novia. “Dimanche Bleu” es el quinto restaurante dentro de la torre Eiffel, pero el primero del mundo en excelencia. Es el más alto en la torre, y desde allí, Innita, al cerrar su show, se lanzará en Bungee Jumping, otorgado por un permiso especial, ya que está prohibido, pero ¿no es el rock la mejor excusa para hacer excepciones a la regla? Siendo Francia el país vanguardia en la Haute Cuisine Végétaliene, “Dimanche Bleu” no podía ser la excepción. La característica principal de su menú, aparte de ser 100% raw vegan, es que toda la comida luce en tonalidades azules, resultante de secretos gastronómicos logrados por la mezcla de exóticas hierbas, vegetales, y frutas para obtener esa gama cromática cyan, por lo general ajena en la comida. El sabor de los platillos es un viaje de los sentidos, una experiencia casi mística que a muchos comensales que viene de todas partes del globo les ha partido su vida en 2: antes y despues de comer allí. Por eso mismo Innita también quiso mostrar un viaje, haciendo un solo de guitarra mientras cae en bungee.

Ese espíritu aventurero, desparpajado y aún así elegante de Innita fue conocido internacionalmente por la reseña que la prensa internacional hizo de su presentación en el 2008 durante el festival “Rock al Parque” de Bogotá. Con sus ligueros, panties, botas y corsé, Innita cantó acrobáticamente con su guitarra, trepándose y bailando en el poste de stripper-dancers que hizo montar para el show, show que por capricho de los organizadores había sido programado el día de bandas de metal, un día cuyo público es en sumayoría bastante masculinizado y obtuso para apreciar su presentación. Era de esperarse que con un público así, decididos a oir solo metal, y no la almibarada mezcla de hard-rock, glamcore, art rock y post-new wave que caracteriza el sonido de Innita, su presentación acarreó pocas admiraciones y muchos odios, al punto que el odio se hizo presente durante la pegajosa “Single”, cuando un mechudo tan lleno de alcohol como de taches le lanzó, con certeza de francotirador, una botella vacía de whisky estrellándose justo en su guitarra, que de no haber Innita reaccionado con instintos casi felinos, los vidrios hubieran podido incrustarse en su mano, escote y rostro. Innita, desbocada en ira por el susto, tomó el cuello de la botella del piso y con similar puntería se lo devolvió a su agresor, quien también pudo esquivar el misil, pero sintiéndose humillado cruzó la valla del público para subirse subirse al escenario, mientras que Innita recargada de más ira al ver venir al embriagado sujeto, se bajó del escenario, y esquivando los miembros de seguridad que la trataron de detener, se halló con el metalero en el canal que separa el escenario del público, y le propinó velozmente un par de elegante patadas voladoras, producto de sus entonces madrugadoras clases diarias de Muay Thai y Kung-Fu, y lanzó al melenudo fuertemente contra la valla. Acto seguido el cuerpo de seguridad finalmente logró atrapar a Innita y al metalero separándolos, pero amigos e improvisados solidarios del embriagado francotirador lograron en muchedumbre zafarlo de los policías y arrástrándolo al mar del público, lograron que se escabullera. En la media hora sigueinte, lo que más se comentó en el lugar fue el despliegue de elegancia de sus agresivos movimientos, muy al estilo de Trinity en la trilogía de “Matrix”. Todo pasó en un abrir y cerrar de ojos, pero dio inesperadamente un nuevo status a Innita, que hasta ese momento era más una banda en gira de bares y sin un álbum grabado. Criticada fuertemente al día siguiente por la prensa bogotana con el título de “la leona peleona”, fue en cambio muy bien recibida por el público femenino, quienes vieron reflejada en ese incidente su fantasía de poder responder victoriosas ante un enfrentamiento físico con un hombre; y por otro lado, la prensa internacional que cubría el festival situarían a Innita entre in indescifrable punto intermedio entre Wendy O'Williams y Fiona Apple.

Un Año despues, en el festival de Woodstock en julio de 2009, la prensa la llamaría, en el mejor de los casos, como una “Dita Von Teese + Cherrie Curie”,pero como una “Cicciolina Lolita” necesitada de atención, en el peor, cuando en el escenario hizo un lento y a-la-vintage strip-tease durante el largo intro en vivo de “O Varios”, su octava y final canción de la noche, en la medianoche del 31 de julio, víspera de su cumpleaños número 18. Al finalizar la canción, se tapó con una de las banderas estadounidenses que unos fans locales le habían lanzado al empezar, y cubierta de nuevo dijo “no he infringido ninguna ley, la música es mi vestimenta”, era obvio que Innita estaba feliz inagurando su vida de mayor de edad. En el umbral de esa medianoche, nadie vió la hora, nadie supo exactamente si Innita se desnudó como menor de edad o ya como adulta, pero la ley del estado de optó por lo primero y al día siguiente, Innita tuvo que pagar una alta fianza por escándalo en público, dinero que estaba destinado para grabar su primer álbum. Innita se molestó, y ese mismo primero de agosto, día de su cumpleaños, adelantó su regreso a Colombia, no volvió a desnudarse en concierto alguno, “el público no estaba preparado para ello”, decía contrariada. Estuvo inusualmente deprimida toda la semana, pero a la semana siguiente, el 8 de agosto del 2009, conocería a su actual novia, una historia de amor que en estos 2 años Innita siempre se ha reservado de dar a la prensa.

Hoy en día, Innita sí pudo tumbar por unos momentos la ley, al dejarse tumbar con una guitarra desde la torre Eiffel . Fue el postre favorito del restaurante. Y en mi caso, es apenas el aperitivo para las preguntas que le tengo por hacer.

No para Innita: entrevista de Aló Mujeres.

2011-09-19T16:19:00.001-05:00

By / Por: Ángela Álvarez C.

This empirical artist and creator of the Menorrealista art current calls himself "No para Innita", although he has an antagonist called "Yes". The main character of his work is a woman, "Innita Para No". His current, Menorrealismo, defendes the fantasy as a survival mechanism, "My way of improving my life in reality was consciously escaping from it to unrealities to slow down reality in my daily life. But I would not do that with substances, nor with nostalgia for social revolution, nor creed. I see in art the best substitute for drugs and utopian hopes for social or spiritual havens" said No.

Why did you turn your art to everything feminine?
In my stories the female characters always become or are the stars because I alvays have fascination for everything femenine. I became more aware of that since I read the diaries of Anais Nin, back in 1994. A couple of years later, I got myself in my own feminine-centric fiction as a lesbian scientific and alien, inspired at the time, mainly on David Bowie.

What are the women you admire in real life?
The writers Charlotte Perkins Gilman and Mary Shelley, also owe much to the diaries of Anais Nin, the singers Madonna, Shirley Manson & Taylor Momsen, the Cacica Gaitana, the mythological Eve and Lilith, the vegan activist Natalie Portman and Alicia Silverstone, and all women collectively vegan and animal liberation. I know I forgot more names of women right now.

Tell me where does it all at some point we were women?
In my stories, Oginaia is the place where all life comes. It is a place without time and space where everything is light and Unity, and all beings are female. In the case of beings in human form, are double, Siamese hair infinitely couples in love, orange socks complete radiant. The union of our universe Oginaia performed by stars, including of course the sun Stars are doors are thresholds that link the Unity (Oginaia) with our Duality, ie the universe we live. So, in essence and origin, all beings are female.

Now, Who Is "Innita para No"?
"Innita para No" is a albino rocker girl with pink hair, nipples, lips and iris, which has the trademark of having stars-sahped freckles on her nose and cheeks.
Innita was born in Cúcuta, August 1st 1991, where in the zodiac sign is Leo, as Madonna and Taylor Momsen are. Their debut album was "Rockanrose", released on September 9, 2009, and currently sInnita prepares "20/20," her second album to be released on November 11, 2011. Innita is my girlfriend.

When did you created her?
In 1998: Her first appearance was in my picture book "Ginotropia," which is a public issue in Bibioteca Luis Angel Arango in Bogota. I invented Innita to symbolize my ideal women. I just made a fresh start to her fictional story on past Monday August 1, as a result of a review of the loose ends and complicated knots that I had been doing lately, so now I make it more accessible to both old and new fans.

Innita exists in virtuality.
Yeah, in my stories I have created a triple world set in a threefold present. One of the world is this where we are. In the second one, since 2006, happens World War IV, and the third one is where Innita does world tours since 2008. These three worlds represent: Insomnia (this world), nightmares (World War IV) and dreams (where Innita is a rocker). The psychoanalytic parallel is this world is the ego, the World War IV is the Id, and the dream World is the Super-Ego. Although I am agnostic, the parallel religious worlds do these 3 are respectively: Limbo, Hell and Paradise. And so on. There are more metaphores in my work of 3 Worlds.

And who is No?
No is Innita's girlfriend. Innita and No met each other at the mid of 2009 and it is love at first sight, they began a romantic relationship that day. No para Innita is a biologist who, after investigating since 1998 parthenogenesis, finally she achieved, in early 2008, isolate parthenogenetic gene from "Cnemidophorus Exsanguis" lizards and synthesizes it in order to be used to the human species, and thus makes it possible women become pregnant without male intervention. In 2010, This turns biologist in a billionaire, opening "Partynogyne" her own international organization for infertile women and women with reproductive problems. The latest headquarters "Partynogyne" was inaugurated in Paris on Tuesday August 2.

What are your women in your own fiction favorites?
Innita is my star character, she becomes my own dear spoiled lesbian "Mickey Mouse" version, she is my "Hello Kitty", my "Wonder Woman". After her, I have as favorites, in no order, "Planeta Tierna", which is Mother Earth, and in my stories is the bright side of my conviction for veganism. On the other hand, "Angstarctica", a mutant anthropomorphic penguin, misanthrope avenger who assaults fishing boats and whalers in the South Pole and kill hunters and fishermen, with her she I vent the resulting dark side of my conviction from veganism.
There is also my nemesis and arch enemy "Yes", a woman who says yes to everything, she is alcoholic, omnivorous, and especially, a lawyer. My brand-new "Yimar" is my new favorite one, and she has much to do with forgotten memories of Innita and No when they lived in the aforementioned Oginaia.

You were telling me it's Innita's birthday time. How will you celebrate?
Innita turned 20 last August 1. She and I celebrated that night with an expensive private birthday party at the Hotel Ritz in Paris, after the live show Innita did in "The Concorde Elyseenne" where she was wearing cat ears-and-tails accessories, because of her Leo sign. The party theme was the cat, we had big time, but the intimate details stays in my reservation. We're still celebrating.

Este artista empírico y creador de la corriente Menorrealista se hace llamar No Para Innita, aunque tiene una antagonista que se llama Sí. El personaje principal de su obra es una mujer: Innita para No. Su corriente, el Menorrealismo, reivindica la fantasía como mecanismo de supervivencia; “Mi forma de mejorar mi existencia en la realidad era escapando conscientemente de ella, hacia irrealidades para aminorarla dentro de mi diario vivir. Pero no lo haría ni con sustancias, ni con nostalgias de revoluciones sociales, ni con credos. Veo en el arte el mejor sustituto de drogas y esperanzas en utópicos paraísos sociales o espirituales” dice No.

¿Por qué volcaste tu arte hacia todo lo femenino?
En mis historias los personajes femeninos siempre se vuelven o son las protagonsitas, pues siempre me ha fascinado todo lo femenino. Lo volví más consciente desde que leí los diarios de "Anais Nin" en 1994. Un par de años después, yo mismo me metí en mi propia ficción femeninocéntrica como extraterrestre lesbiana y científica, inspirado en ese entonces, principalmente, en David Bowie.

¿Cuáles son las mujeres que admiras de la vida real?
Las escritoras Charlotte Perkins Gilman & Mary Shelley, también le debo mucho a los diarios de Anais Nin; las cantantes Madonna, Shirley Manson & Taylor Momsen; la cacica Gaitana, las mitológicas Eva y Lilith, las activistas véganas Natalie Portman y Alicia Silverstone, y colectivamente a toda mujer végana y liberadora animal. Sé que se me escapan más nombres de mujeres.

Cuéntame ¿De dónde sale que todos en algún momento fuimos mujeres?
En mis historias, Oginaia es el lugar de donde toda la Vida procede. Es un lugar sin tiempo ni espacio donde todo es Luz y Unidad, y todos los seres son femeninos. En el caso de los seres con figura humana, son dobles, siameses del cabello, parejas infinitamente enamoradas, medias naranjas completas radiantes. La unión de Oginaia con nuestro universo se realiza por medio de las estrellas, incluyendo claro está al Sol. Las estrellas son puertas, son umbrales que vinculan la Unidad (Oginaia) con nuestra Dualidad, es decir el universo en que vivimos. Así que, en su esencia y su origen, todos los seres somos femeninos.

Ahora sí, ¿Quién es "Innita para No"?
"Innita para No" es una rockera albina de cabellos, vellos, pezones, labios e iris color rosado, que tiene la particularidad de tener pecas estrellas en su nariz y mejillas. Innita nació en Cúcuta, el primero de agosto de 1991, su signo en el zodiaco es Leo, como Madonna y Taylor Momsen. Su álbum debut fue "Rockanrose", lanzado el 9 de septiembre del 2009, y actualmente Innita prepara "20/20", su segundo álbum que será lanzado el 11 de noviembre del 2011. Innita es mi pareja.

¿Cuándo la creaste?
En 1998: Su primera aparición fue en mi cuento ilustrado "Ginotropia", del cual hay un ejemplar público en la Bibioteca Luis Ángel Arango, en Bogotá. Inventé a Innita para representar simbólicamente a mi pareja ideal. A su historia ficticia le hice borrón y cuenta nueva precisamente el pasado lunes 1ero de agosto, como resultado de una revisión de los cabos sueltos y nudos complicados que venía haciendo últimamente, para entonces poder hacerla más accesible tanto a antiguos como nuevos fans.

Innita existe en la virtualidad.
Ajá, en mis historias he creado un triple mundo que transcurre en un triple presente. Uno de los mundos es éste en el que estamos. En el segundo desde el 2006 sucede una primitiva Cuarta Guerra Mundial y en el tercero es en donde Innita hace giras mundiales desde el 2008. Estos 3 mundos representan: el insomnio (éste mundo), las pesadillas (la Cuarta Guerra Mundial) y los sueños (donde Innita es rockera). El paralelo sicoanalítico es que este mundo es el Ego, el de la Cuarta Guerra es el Id, y el de los sueños es el Super-Ego. Aunque soy agnóstico, el paralelo religioso que hago de estos 3 mundos es respectivamente: el Limbo, el Infierno y el Paraíso. Y así sucesivamente. Hay más analogías en mi obra de los 3 Mundos.

¿Y quién viene siendo No?
"No para Innita" es la pareja de Innita. Innita y No se conocen a mediados del 2009 y es amor a primera vista, empiezan una relación romántica ese mismo día. No para Innita es una bióloga que, luego de investigar desde 1998 la partenogénesis, finalmente a principios del 2008 logra aislar, de las lagartijas "Cnemidophorus Exsanguis", su gen partenogenético, y lo sintetiza aplicable a la especie humana, y así se hace posible que las mujeres queden embarazadas sin intervención masculina. Este hecho convierte en el 2010 a la bióloga No en multimillonaria, abriendo "Partynogyne", su propia organización internacional para mujeres estériles y con problemas reproductivos. La sede más reciente de "Partynogyne" la inauguró en Paris el pasado martes 2 de agosto.

¿Cuáles son tus mujeres de tu propia ficción preferidos?
Innita es mi personaje estrella, viene a ser mi mimada "Mickey Mouse" versión lésbica; es mi "Hello Kitty", es mi "Mujer Maravilla". Luego de ella tengo como favoritos, en ningún orden, a "Planeta Tierna", que es la madre Tierra en mis historias, es el lado amable de mi convicción por el veganismo. Por el contrario está "Angstarctica" una mutante pingüina antropomorfa, misántropa vengadora que asalta barcos pesqueros y balleneros en el Polo Sur y mata cazadores y pescadores. Con ella desahogo el lado oscuro resultante de mi convicción por el veganismo. Está también mi némesis y archi enemiga "Sí" que es una mujer que le dice sí a todo, alcohólica, omnívora, y sobre todo abogada. Mi reinventada "Yimar" es mi nueva favorita, y tiene que ver mucho con los recuerdos olvidados de Innita y No cuando vivían en la antes mencionada Oginaia.

Me estabas contando que Innita cumple ¿Cómo lo vas a celebrar?
Innita cumplió 20 años el pasado 1 de agosto. Ella y yo celebramos esa noche, con una costosa fiesta privada de cumpleaños en el Hotel Ritz de París, luego que Innita hiciera su concierto en "La Concorde Elyseenne", donde llevaba puestos accesorios de orejas y colas felinas, por su signo Leo. El tema de la fiesta era lo felino, la pasamos en grande, pero los detalles íntimos me los reservo. Aún lo estamos celebrando.

“Innita no para”, la entrevista Rocking Stone, preludio.
Paris, France.

por Beth Salavarrieta.

Cúcuta es una pequeña ciudad colombiana donde el calor hace límite borroso con el viento, semejante al borroso límite que Colombia y Venezuela allí viven. Las cucuteñas, hijas de 28° C y la brisa, heredan de esta combinación su carácter, con el particular y borroso límite que el enojo y romance manifiestan juntos. El clima emocional de Innita es un ejemplo algo extraño de la mujer de Cúcuta, su ciudad natal. Innita, (sí, ella, aquella rockera de pecas-estrellas conocida por haber pateado guitarras y hombres en sus conciertos, y sobre todo, por aquel desnudo total en Woodstock 2008, cuando aún Innita era menor de edad, impasse que la inspiró a componer “Nobody Naked seems to be An Enemy” y por la cual fue ganadora del Grammy Best Latin Rock/Alternative Song 2009) anunció hace 2 días, “20/20” , su segundo álbum, en el estadio La Concorde Élyséenne, durante su concierto de cumpleaños . Por eso no es en vano que una canción melosamente titulada “Amo amar” -el segundo sencillo de "Rockanrose", su álbum debut, 2009- sea en realidad una descarga de riffs y percusión feroz a punto de estallar entrelazada con su apodada “voz de aceituna”, en una amalgama que borra los límites entre lo que podría ser una versión garaje de los incendios musicales en “Firestarter”, de Prodigy, con las brisas vocales de Debbie Harry en “Dreaming” .

Luego que su concierto de cumpleaños terminara y mi VIP me permitiera entrar a su fiesta privada de aniversario, pude lograr, ya allí en el BallRoom del Hotel Ritz, que la pequeña leona albina me concediera varios días para hacer la entrevista con toda la calma y extensión que requiere ser la entrevista de la portada. Sus garras, que usualmente se reflejan como chispas en sus iris rosados cuando de periodistas se trata, estaban escondidas tras la amplia y dulce sonrisa que proyectaba después que su novia No le regalara un irrompible cello, a manera de broma.

“Innita doesn't stop”, The Rocking Stone interview, prelude.

Cúcuta is a small Colombian city where the heat shares fuzzy boundary with the wind, like the fuzzy boundary Colombia and Venezuela live there. The "Cucuteñas" -Cúcuta born women-, daughters of 28 ° C and the wind, inherit the character of this combination, in particular, fuzzy boundary express anger and romance together. The emotional climate of Innita is an bizarre example Innita of Cúcuta's women, her hometown. Innita (yes, she, that star-shaped freckles rocker girl known for kicked guitars and men in her live shows, and above all, that total naked act at Woodstock 2008, when Innita still was a minor aged, impasse that inspired her to compose “Nobody Naked seems to be An Enemy” and for which she won the Grammy Best Latin Rock / Alternative Song 2009) announced "20/20" 2 days ago , her second album, La Concorde Élyséenne stage during her birthday's show. So it is not in vain that a syrupy song entitled “Amo amar”, the second single from "Rockanrose", her debut album, 2009 - is actually a barrage of fierce riffs and percussion explode intertwined with his dubbed "olive's voice "in an amalgam that erases the boundaries between what could be a garage version of the musical fire in “Firestarter” by Prodigy, with breezes Debbie Harry's vocal on" Dreaming".

After her birthday concert ended and my VIP let me enter his private party anniversary, I could achieve, and there in the Hotel Ritz's Ballroom, the little lioness albino give me several days to do the interview calmly and extension requires the home interview. His claws, usually reflected in its iris like sparks pink when it comes to journalists, were hidden behind the wide, sweet smile that project after No, her girlfriend, gave her an expensive unbreakable cello, as a joke.

Breaking her guitar in the middle of the opening song, and wearing a 3-d related outfit and cat-ccesories, Leo-born Rockstar Innita para No opened her 20th birthday show today, announcing "20/20" as the title of her 2nd album, to be released November 11, 2011, 11.11.11

"The title of my second album alludes directly to Visual Acuity, and it deals ironically with all the 3-d fake vision parafernalia I'm wearing, as humankind thinks the older the wiser any person becomes. Seriously I feel as numb and dumb as ever", chuckles Innita about her upcoming album before she continued with her second song of the night.

Dear Innita's die hard fans:

Since 2006, the year I re-invented Innita as a character -and stopped being as a blurry romantic visual poetry as it was since her 1998 debut-, it has been a long hard road of "trial and error". I know this experimental road will go on, as my favourite writing edge of mixing real life with sci-fantasy will continue. It's complicated, but it brings me lots of fun and even nerdy private jokes in the process.I did remind these recent days I don't draw for sharing facts about my life, I draw mainly for sharing feelings about how I perceive life itself. With this thought set in mind, the brand-new adventures of Innita begins today, in the roaring time of Leo.New month, new chapter one: Today I debut "Innita: Year One" with the newest narrative reboot of her, with her -at last- official birth date: Thursday, August 1st, 1991, as a starting clear point in the middle of too many loose ends spreading here on this visual diary on Flickr. August is the month intended to fix the many lives of Innita and as result, bringing a fresh-start for september 1st .... I hope so ;)

No para Innita.
