Novetat: MEDITATION RAGAS (Wet Dreams Records)

Posted on by

This record puts together two works conceived during my walks around Collserola hill (near Barcelona) with my friend Drac, looking for forest fountains and peaceful spots. It is very personal and intimate, but I’m pleased to share it with all of you. It is quiete obvious that it is not meditation music, or music to meditate with. In fact the first track is quite rough and based on guitar feedback. Somehow it was inspired by Metal Machine Music of Lou Reed, and the guitar part is the first thing I played with my brand new Blade Lewinson almost two years ago. I just played it once back from my Collserola walk, under the effect of the relaxing walk, and adding afterwards some sounds captured during the walk. Second track uses some more recognisable elements in the meditation music, such as tambura, tabla and sitar sounds, but again those elements are

San Petersburg Soundscape

Posted on by

Download link Thrmnphone Records 007 De la mano de Antoni Robert nos trasladamos a San Petersburgo a través de un recorrido por los sonidos captados en esa ciudad. Pero no estamos ante una clásica grabación cruda de campo de un lugar determinado, el detallado trato delautor a todo el material de Saint Petersburg Soundscape sirve de vehículo para viajar, si bien no físicamente, si por medio de la “música” de una de las ciudades más atractivas del planeta y como nos dice Antoni, “…uno se hace a la idea de cómo suena la ciudad escuchando este trabajo”. Do you enjoy the buzz of a city? Are you fond of trains? Do you like to drift off into a world of the imagination? Then welcome to a triptych of albums from Antoni Robert. All three are based on field recordings electronically manipulated and edited to create a series of encapsulated experiences, evoking both

I play no instruments in this recording. This is deliberately a low-fi work. In the Yoko Ono-Plastic Ono Band LP (1970) there’s a track called “Paper Shoes” starting for some 2 minutes just with the sound of a train. I found this track fascinating. Since then I’ve always had

Journey through a wormhole into the home of the pataphysical ghosts

Posted on by

  Download link http://www.wdrecords.com    WDR14 Hidden Pattern #1. Journey through a wormhole into the home of the pataphysical ghosts. The idea for this work came to me when thinking about John Cage’s 4’33” piece. Cage composed the silence, but what about recording the silence? So I left the digital recorder in a silent room for one hour. In real world perfect silence doesn’t exist, because outside the silent room things happen, and leave subtel sound traces. Through amplification you start to hear noises and hidden sound patterns. Some make sense, some do not, but all of them are potentially useful. After a long process of selection and manipulation you have a variety of sounds that you can use for composing. Sounds that came out of nothing. No instruments at all have been used, just the sound captured in the original recording. After several attemps with the combined “stretch” effect

From my hotel near Ostkreutz station to the concert hall everyday I had to go through seven S-Bahn stations. This was like a ritual every day. Not knowing what for, I started doing some field recordings. During the day along Berlin streets, then at the concert hall I recorded
