Continue readingNew release: MORNING GLOW by Satu Sinikka & Antoni Robert. This is the first output of a project of distance collaborations. Two different artists with different background and styles exchange sound files and work on it until a satifying result is achieved. This approach is based on “lateral thinking” techniques, and gets the artists out of the usual comfort zone. Thanks to Satu for willing to participate, and for her nice pictures, used in the artwork. It’s been rewarding to work with Satu in this project!

Continue readingThis is the album with the eighth global call for Microtopies. The Microtopies are sonic miniatures that shape a special edition of Radio Música i Geografía (Ràdio Gràcia FM, Barcelona), the weekly radio program 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 69 pieces from 11 countries. Now, we invite you to take this journey. You will enjoy the maximum quality of sound recorded by the authors. Don’t listen to them by your computer loudspeakers but rather plug them in a decent sound system or put on good headphones otherwise you will miss a lot of sounds and frequencies… Good trip! Gràcia Territori Sonor wants to acknowledge all the artists who have generously participated in this project… thank you for making these Microtopies

Continue readingQuiet mood captured at Blanes after a periode of reflexion. Unusual limited use of guitars. Mainly keyboards. The grandmother of one of us once listened to someone saying that we (the family) were poor poeple. And she replied that we were not poor people; poor people are those who have nothing and are miserable. Instead we were just “cortos de bienes” (with limited quantity of goods).

Continue readingLuis Palés Matos (Guayama, 20 de marzo de 1898 – 23 de febrero de 1959) fue un escritor, novelista, poeta y periodista puertorriqueño. En 1923 fundó en Santo Domingo el periódico Los Seis con el periodista y poeta español Juan José Llovet.

En estos años desarrolló lo que sería la poesía negra o el verso negro, con una visión de la cultura negra puertorriqueña integrada dentro de la originalidad de su obra de sonidos armoniosos. Algunos autores destacan la influencia que ejerció sobre otros autores de Sudamérica y mencionan ejemplos como el de Nicolás Guillén.
