Remember The O.C

Lembram-se da série televisiva "The O.C" (Na Terra dos Ricos)? Aquela série que trazia para dentro de nossas casas Ryan, Marisa, Seth e Summer? A série sem dúvida alguma teve um impacto muito forte aquando do seu surgimento em 2003, tendo passado por altos e baixos até terminar em 2007 com a sua quarta temporada. Apesar da qualidade narrativa nem sempre ser fantástica, uma coisa é certa... a música era fenomenal. E é por ai que quero pegar ao abordar este tema. "The O.C" foi um veiculo importantíssimo na divulgação da música Indie pelo mundo fora. O seu impacto aqui em Portugal foi impressionante. Era impensável andar no IPod do "average tuga" grupos como Death Cab for Cutie, Bright Eyes, Modest Mouse ou The Walkmen, mas graças à (super) influência da série, os portugueses foram premiados com música de altíssima qualidade para os seus ouvidos, expandido o seu gosto e conhecimento para outros campos mais diversificados. Uma moda que parece ter pegado e dificilmente se consegue abanar! Música Indie veio para ficar. Ficam aqui alguns dos momentos musicais das bandas que participaram em episódios do O.C.
