Microtopies 2020: 56 miniatures de música i geografia.

Posted on by

This is the ninth album of the ‘Microtopies’ global call. The Microtopies are sonic miniatures that shape a special edition of the Música i Geografía (Ràdio Gràcia, Barcelona) radio show, produced weekly by Gràcia Territori Sonor. The aim is to make a sonic route through a map of randomly assigned events, since the pieces received have been included in strict order of reception. This year have been received 56 pieces from 31 cities from 11 countries. Now, we invite you to this journey. You will enjoy the best sound quality as recorded by the authors. Don’t listen to them on your computer loudspeakers but rather plug it in a decent sound system or put on good headphones, otherwise you will miss a lot of sounds and frequencies… Have a good trip! Gràcia Territori Sonor wants to acknowledge all the artists who have generously participated in this project… thank you for

India & Nepal 1984, the effect of time on film, by Francisco Sandalinas

Posted on by

Back in 1984 Francisco Sandalinas (architect) went to India & Nepal alone, only with his camera. Once back some of the films were stored badly and suffered from weather degradation. Instead of scrapping it, Francisco developped them and realized that the pictures had acquired a rare beauty.  A selection of the pictures has been included in this video, and I’ve added some adequate sounds. We hope you will enjoy it.

New release, Pandemic Suite#11: Sounds for abandoned industrial sites.

Posted on by

This is the 11th Pandemic Suite , and it is the first one to have been played using the Multi Mode of Blofeld. The first 10 suites were played usin just one sound. This one has been played using 8 different sounds. So is has more complexity and details. As the previous ones it doesn’t make sense to listen bits of it. It is an ambient recording and the aim is to create a mood, and the mood is created slowly, step by step, and to be perceived it requires a complete and concentrated listening.

Pandemic Suites release. Second set.

Posted on by

We are living strange days. We don’t even know when the situation will return to a “normal” state. Perhaps never, because the problem was an incorrect normality. During these days “at home”  I am playing 40′ suites for myself. I try to find a suitable state of mind and then I relax and try to evolve the sound properly. Different days, different moods. I have decided to share with you whenever the results satisfy me. Those are “ambient” recordings, not songs or melodies. The only reasonable way to hear it is from start to finish, without interruption, because the mood takes time to reveal itself and enter your brain. Hearing those sounds partially and with interruptions is pointless. I hope you like it, and I am ready to receive your comments. All downloads are FREE. For these Pandemic recordings, the artwork is done using different sources, and authors are in
