ESCUPEMETRALLA al NIU, 6-5-2017

Posted on by

ESCUPEMETRALLA: among the best you can see and listen to in the Barcelona scene!! Han vuelto Muhammad y Muhammad!!!! Escupemetralla es el resultado de una serie de retrotransmisiones que se llevarán a cabo a mediados del siglo XXI en el “Thorne’s Cone Light Reversion Laboratory for Children” de Los Alamos, Texas (Estados Federales de México y Puerto Rico). En cierto modo, actualmente Escupemetralla no es más que una entidad virtual que existirá en realidad dentro de unos años. Febrero 2021: Escupemetralla crece espontáneamente en un caldo primordial de funciones y genera dos mellizos, Muhammad y Muhammad. Marzo 2022: Escupemetralla ofrece su primer espectáculo en el metaverso. Una fracción relativamente pequeña de humanos (3.000.000.000) descarga el concierto en implantes. Se venden varios millones de microcubos ópticos de administración oral con el concierto en versión 3D táctil. Julio 2025: Monte Cazazza Oldies, empresa de Los Angeles (EFMPR), contrata a Escupemetralla para labores

My new release! Tape Noise Groove.

Posted on by

All sounds obtained from electronic manipulation of background noise of audio tapes and vinyl records. I play no instruments in this work. This is my second work in the “Hidden Pattern” series, dedicated to discover sound patterns in recordings apparently without them. In this case I’ve used as source just tape noise and used vinyl background noise. Previously I did it using a silent recording (Journey into the home of the pataphysical ghosts, Wet Dreams14, 2015). I find the resulting sounds mysterious and hypnotic, but the prospective listener has to bear in mind that the sounds contained in these recordings are JUST NOISE. Listen to it or download it at your own risk from: https://archive.org/details/hr092

Electro’SP at Sinestesia, Mark Cunningham & Miquel Jordà, 2017

Posted on by

Electro’SP at Sinestesia, March, 21st, 2017 Mark Cunningham: trumpet, slide trumpet & devices Miquel Jordà: alto saxophone, percussions & devices A former member of the No Wave group Mars, trumpeter Mark Cunningham graduated to a similarly experimentalist solo project during the 1990s, inspired by the arid, Middle Eastern textures of Miles Davis’ Sketches of Spain. Mars’ output was quite small (four tracks on the seminal 1978 compilation No New Wave and a live album), and the band had broken up by the time of their entire back catalog was culled onto Mars 78 in 1986. Cunningham worked with two outfits, Don King and the Spanish-based Raeo, then recorded the 1997 solo album Blood River Dusk. Miquel Jordà: Multidisciplinary artist, trained as a musician, develops his work in wide creative fields such as musical composition and interpretation, video art, interactive facilities, sonorous art, photography or poetry.

Janneke van der Putten a Màgia Roja, 8-4-2017

Posted on by

Experimentació a Màgia Roja. Els misteriosos crits de Janneke.   Janneke van der Putten (Amsterdam, 1985) is an artist based in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Her practice involves experiences of listening, performances, sound and video, documentations in image/text/textile, workshops, music projects, and creating platforms for cultural exchange. Her voice is her main tool, guiding her through physical and sonic explorations in different landscapes. Engaging with specific sites and local contexts, and through her personal experiences, she investigates (human) responses to her surroundings, and their relation to natural phenomena and transitions, such as the sunrise. Van der Putten graduated from TXT (Textile) at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy and completed the Master Artistic Research at the Royal Academy of Art and Royal Conservatoire, The Hague. The project ‘Invisible Architecture’ together with Chrs Galarreta, for which they published a vinyl in 2014, has been presented in South-America and Europe, including at the Museo de Arte

The Dark Side of the Men (E Blues) by ZERO DE CONDUCTA, 2017.

Posted on by

This one is about hard work and anguish, and it’s obviously a blues. We want to work; we need to work; we feel lucky if we got a job; but most of us are working for the Dark Side of humankind; or should I say “unhumankind”?

Trance two: Remote Planet Seaside Echoes by Antoni Robert (2017)

TRANCE MUSIC Thrmn 011 2017 Mi intención es que escuchando este trabajo (y más todavía viéndolo y escuchándolo al mismo tiempo) uno experimente un “trance” que conlleve necesariamente una suspensión del sentido del tiempo y unas sensaciones muy primordiales. La manera ideal de experimentarlo es viendo el video en una pantalla grande, con dos muros de altavoces a los lados, a volumen alto y la habitación a oscuras. De este modo uno puede sentir con la suficiente intensidad el latido del Sol y vibrar con él, quizás como oíamos y sentíamos los latidos del corazón de nuestra madre antes de nacer. De modo parecido podemos sumergirnos en un momento en el que la vida bulle en el agua de un planeta lejano, como lo hizo en el nuestro hace muchos años. Y precisamente en el momento en que la vida lucha por salir del Mar y conquistar la Tierra. Sol,

Bartolomé Ferrando & Truna. Impro Fest at Arts Santa Mònica , 7-2-2017. Barcelona.

Posted on by

JOP: Bartolomé Ferrando, voice Truna, cello & gadgets Impro Fest at Arts Santa Mònica , 7-2-2017. Barcelona La música de JOP es improvisada, sin ninguna estructura previa. Es una música que se estructura a partir de la escucha atenta de lo que el otro hace. Escuchar atentamente exige estar situado de lleno en el instante presente, dejando a un lado cualquier apunte de finalidad o cualquier evocación o recuerdo. Escuchar atentamente implica la capacidad de escucha de la propia pulsión interna. Pero para improvisar no basta sólo con saber escuchar. Hay que construir en el instante, en base a la escucha del otro, una grafía propia, una estructura propia, con capacidad para articularse con la forma propuesta por el otro, sin taparla, ni ahogarla en ningún momento. Kandinsky decía que la improvisación se relaciona con la interioridad y con la espontaneidad. Tanto una como otra son aquí necesarias. La primera

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGFAqHsz540 Trailer de la pieza “Somewhat paler”. Estrenada el 2 de diciembre de 2016 en el Festival Sálmon/Sala Hiroshima(Barcelona). Realizado por Tristán Pérez-Martín. TEATRO DANZA – PREMIERE – 60’ SOMEWHAT PALER (Texto de Jaime Conde-Salazar) Como un via crucis en el que las estaciones de penitencia hubieran comenzado a desdibujarse. Y ya no es posible pararse en ninguno de los lugares del camino. Ni llegar, ni alcanzar: la única posibilidad es ir, dirigirse, atravesar y abandonar cada uno de los cuerpos disponibles. El sonido que produce el camino es una voz atragantada pero libre. Las palabras siempre vienen de otro lado, de otras bocas que se convierten en propias y sirven ahora para decir la grieta. Partida en dos. Partida en mil. La Pena son los abismos que se abren entre cada uno de los trozos. La misión es dejarse caer, probar cada vez el sabor del vacío sin
