METODOLOGY

The topic that we have chosen is interesting nowadays and it has a major influence on what Madrid is today. Firstly, we looked for the definition of “La Movida Madrileña” to find out what it was exactly, after, we focused on finding the information that we needed for our work, and therefore, we had to subtract the information that we considered more interesting.

It was important for our research that we made a previous outline on the most interesting points that we wanted to deal with and it helped us to make this work with a greater effectiveness.

About the interview and the interviewee, it was very important the great work of Marta Sanz with his uncle, to know in detail  some of the thousand stories that he lived, as the reasons that led him to form a group, for example. However we also had a problem: we had too much information and too little time to expose it all, so we had to think about doing a great summary of all the information.

Definitely, this work helped us to improve our knowledge on a great event that arose in Madrid, and in which we did not just  stayed on the surface, but we went deeply into details. We have also enjoyed doing it.

CONSEQUENCES

The Movida Madrileña was an event that involved all Madrid and changed the view that people had about the city.

We want to highlight different ways of clothing that could be found in the same city without happening any problems between the several groups that we could appreciate in those years, since all the people were "equal". It was an period of time in which freedom had a great role, people were free to express their emotions, thoughts, tastes,... Through music, journalism, fashion...

From that time , it began to be created various musical groups that played at places which are currently very popular as Rock-Ola. Some important groups were born in these places such as: “Alaska y los Pegamoides”, “Radio Futura”, “Nacha Pop”...

Music played a very important role, because through music, people expressed several feelings, opinions, as the circumstances that were being lived at that time... We have realized that the music was a great influence on the mentality of young people and marked a before and an after in Madrid.

Throughout the interview to Ángel Pereira we have realize what "La Movida Madrileña" really was  and how he lived it, also, the interview gave us memories and scars that have left Madrid marked.
