Greetings my dear and appreciated friends, It is a real pleasure to greet you on this splendid day. I am delighted to welcome you to our new publication, where we will dive into my latest news related to our beloved game, Rising Star.

But before we dive into the details, I'd like to share with you some opinions and thoughts on recent musical happenings that are making waves in the music world. And in my personal case they have caught my attention. Without further ado, let's get started.

Today I want to share with you my review of the latest album of the band Khruangbin, titled "A La Sala". I must first of all say that I have already listened to some of this band's previous works and I can say that they are undoubtedly very good.  I recently found out that they had created a new album and I listened to it and here I am today to tell you my impressions.

In a general way Since their first works, Khruangbin has captivated audiences around the world with their unique fusion of musical influences from various corners of the world. In this case With "A La Sala", the band invites us on a musical journey that transports us through more immersive soundscapes.

One of the first things I noticed when listening to this album is the return of Khruangbin to his roots because as I said I have already listened to his previous works. In this one he offers us a more stripped down and minimalist approach compared to his previous works, such as "Mordechai". This more organic approach in my opinion allows the interplay between the three band members to shine more clearly, highlighting the unique ability of each one.

Guitarist Mark Speer continues to anchor Khruangbin's sound, with his melodic lines masterfully intertwining with the solid rhythmic foundation provided by Laura Lee Ochoa on bass and Donald 'DJ' Johnson on drums. However, on this album, the instruments seem to take on an even more prominent role, leaving room for musical exploration and experimentation.

As far as I could experience each song on "A La Sala" takes us to a different place, from the intricate guitar riffs of "Fifteen Fifty-Three" to the summery lounge atmosphere of "May Ninth" and the afrobeat rhythms of "Pon Pón". It is this musical diversity that makes each song a unique and exciting experience for the listener. At least that's how I see it.

As one progresses through the album, the band surprises us with moments of calm and contemplation, as in the spacey ambient of "Farolim de Felgueiras" or the melancholic closing of "Les Petits Gris". These moments offer a welcome respite amidst the exuberant energy that characterizes the rest of the album. But that's not to say that the others are bad, on the contrary they are very good. It's just that it's welcome to have several types of musical genres within the same album.

If I had to highlight one thing I admire about Khruangbin it is their ability to create music that transcends cultural and linguistic barriers as with this album the band continues their exploration of multiculturalism, fusing elements of different musical traditions in a way that feels authentic and organic. And above all, original.

To end this section of the post I can say that this band with each new production has demonstrated their ability to evolve and reinvent themselves, while staying true to their unique vision of making good music.

If you have not yet had the opportunity to listen to any Khruangbin work, I recommend that you do so when you can because they have some very good work. Well, I give "A La Sala" a score of 8.5/10. I liked it.

 **Well dear friends of Rising Star, this is the musical news I wanted to tell you today. The time has come to show you my latest news in the game. Without further ado, let's continue.**


## New purchases.

New section friends, now it's time to talk about my latest purchases in our beloved game Rising Star. As usual in my blog I obviously refer to new cards. In today's case there will be 3 new cards that I have bought for my collection. Without further ado I will tell you all the details.


![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-28-01-424_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23vhny5Fm3MjU6Fo4BEod54HGkkxNrXeaRWZkPw5VMnhYbJf1Go7UvC5rAGtPkx4MoRnG.jpg)

The first card I bought today is called: Holly. Holly is a card that belongs to the category of common cards. It gives me a total of 10 fans which is very useful to keep growing the ones I have. On the other hand it also gives me 5 skills. It is little but it is appreciated that the card even if it brings something more haha.


![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-28-08-443_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23xeV9ZMonHgj4JFKA9nCjnHhvdAQa1gya2DFmoBzbf7oTdG7r7yRJCxyGqbQA19ZMAZN.jpg)

The price of this card cost me in the market a total of 850 starbits, not bad indeed. Well, it is very cheap. I see it as an excellent option to buy in large quantities. But if you want to wait until I finish showing you the ones I bought to see if you like them better than this one or if they are more profitable.

The phrase of this letter is: She's not berry good. I would leaf her out of your band". This one actually made me a little sad haha. Let Holly into your band don't be mean. Haha.


![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-28-38-423_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23vsBvFRdJrMk1xEh1cvfns2Nb7yUS9Yagux2QcoMNq3jMfqWBWg8RisH5AQ3txhjBruN.jpg)

The next card I bought today is called: Jacob. This one, like the previous one, is common. But it offers me better characteristics than the previous one. It is very low, but it is something normal in the common cards. It only gives me 10 fans and 10 skills. That is 5 more skills than the other one.


![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-29-06-390_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23xov5tGPakGa1wMhLZgysLAQCEFhiqQDCfGR3Qef6TRj1Qh2HH2NShQSHQCUncahqkrk.jpg)

The price of this card is 1034 starbits, it is a little more expensive than the previous one. But actually given the current price of the token is a super cheap card and very valid to buy today.

The tagline of this card is: "He's a cracker!" Kind of interesting haha.


![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-29-47-534_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23vsBndY9YvX4f7gMcjrmVcMFEHxq5i9DgGACK315FWBo4zP1Jbpmj84rJY3jnEZrdEue.jpg)


The last card of the day is called Athena. This one without lying to you I bought more because it seemed like a good card for my collection. I don't know, I saw it differently. Her name reminds me of a movie, haha. This card only has 10 fans and no skill. But it's nice.

![Screenshot_2024-04-09-06-29-53-353_com.mobilekeychain~2.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/technoadventure/23xeX9BQYLNfcfcT4BpjTUy7tkYWNuR1Q8EzYrnUs1QibYrqsB7YqpCcjtZdXNoyM4eUg.jpg)

The price is very cheap, you can buy it for only 842 starbits. The phrase of this card is: "Goddess of war? Well you'll certainly have a battle on your hands!" With this phrase everything made sense haha, I knew I had heard the name before in some movie or video game.

## My latest progress.

Well friends to finish this post it's time to talk about my last progress in Rising star. From my current fans to other stats. Without further ado I show them to you:

My current amount of skill is much higher than my amount of fans and ego combined: 6127. I have made sure to have a firm skill base before buying many fans, that way I won't have to be fighting so long with the ego.

My current fans are: 2520. There are a few here that I can discount because they are drunks, but they are few drunks. My luck remains at 1497. My IM is still 16. My total card collection has risen to 168.
