As we have said before many times, we are very happy to be able to maintain with certain artists some sort of regularity on releasing their work. Fonseca is one of those artists, that from time to time work out a set of compositions for us to share. After his previous instalment on Audiotalaia, [at033] Al Borde del Silencio, Fonseca has been working quietly but thoroughly on this work he is presenting to us: Re Menor (D Minor in english). Re Menor is a work presenting a subjacent issue in artists like Fonseca. This issue - also confronted in the Sara Galán debut [at048] Incidencias - its about the burden that some of this artists carry. This i...

[atp002] Javier Piñango & Edu Comelles - Rally!

Date of release: 02.01.13 Format: CD-R Limited Edition of 25 Copies  Length: 40:02 min Artwork: Edu Comelles SOLD OUT <a href="http://shop.audiotalaia.net/album/rally">Rally! by Javier Piñango & Edu Comelles</a> _ Rally! es la consecuencia directa de un proceso de inmersión sensorial en un entorno que para nosotros fue fugaz y transitorio. Es la consecuencia de recorrer y descubrir una pequeñísima porción de Ciudad de México, es el resultado de pequeñas incursiones en taxi del hotel hasta el centro histórico del DF y de la sorpresa en la deriva y el encuentro fortuito con todas las resonancias de una ciudad que vive a través del altavoz, el ruido y la distorsión. Rally! es la consecuencia adrenalínica de recorrer el DF montados en taxis de dudosa fiabilidad, de quedarse atascado en el Eje Central mientras a tu alrededor vendedores te asaltan con extraños artículos a la venta, martillos, plátanos, snacks y bebidas, en ese orden. Rally!...

This is Transparente by Otra Carpeta, the experimental solo project by Mexican artists Carlos Edelmiro. This improviser and composer currently living in Barcelona, presents this work in which he tries to find a balance between his improvisational facette and the more compositional one.

The album also comes with a couple of collaborations with sound artists Pia Sommer and Gabriel Millán. Both collaborations, and this is interesting, are based on voice, something we find quite refreshing. As said on t...

[at058] Jean Montag - Unquiet

Date of release: 04.12.12 Format: FILE - MP3 Length: 27:08 min Artwork: Audiotalaia _ DOWNLOAD FULL RELEASE (MP3) DOWNLOAD ARTWORK (JPG) DOWNLOAD ARTWORK (PDF) hosted at:  archive.org _ Its more or less easy to find sonic structures, textures, resonances or harmonics that “might work” while investigating on a sound experimental framework. Almost anyone, tweaking a few knobs and using the right or wrong tools, can achieve a palette, a rainbow of possibilities and certain capacity to deliver very interesting sounds. I guess that there is just need of some intuition, enthusiasm and knowing your tools. But then, when it comes the time of composing sounds, things get a bit tougher. On the compositional level aspects such as time, pace or narrative can play a major role. Those elements have the power to bring to life a certain work or just bust it into the debts of boredom. It doesn’t matter if the raw or processed material, before the composition, are splendid sonorities, if you don’t p...
