This album has been divided in three parts that are presented as a continuous reflection on soundscapes of our contemporary life recorded as fragments of common places in our western capitalist contemporary society. Leisure, sports, cultural manifestations, protests and daily life are entangled together to shape a tapestry of how Durán Vázquez perceives his immediate environment. In his own words Vázquez states that those recordings and the fusion between whats fictional and whats truthful aims to portray the implicit political aspects of the daily life soundscape, regardless of what society defines itself. The album is furrowed by electronic sonic structures that detaches the listen...

The 11th of December 2017 snow covered Guadalaviar, a village in Central Spain right in the middle of the most unpopulated area of Southern Europe, the so called Spanish Siberia. After the snow storm 5 days followed and clouds give pass to wind, thaw, water and finally the sun. The cicle of cold, snow, ice and thaw has been  something rather usual in Guadalaviar, but its starting to become an exeption. It still snows, and the cold is there, but not as before. Climate is fragile and unpredictable. In Guadalaviar ...

Impressed by the overwhelming quality and potential creativity by this Catalan musician, we encouraged him to be a part of our catalogue. After a few months and short emails, Vilanova suggested the possibility of releasing a collaboration between him and Canadian cellist Émilie Girard-Charest that would be recorded by the Swiss Sound Designer Robert Torche. Intrigued by the proposal, we agreed to it. The collaboration would take place in a short period of time and would be recorded in the best conditions by Torche. Researching in the Audiotalaia Catalogue Vilanova, Girard-Charest and Torche realized that there are n...

Giovanni Lami / 13.05.2017 by audiotalaia _ Aquest jove artista italià forma part d'una nova fornada d'artistes sonors i músics experimentals apareguda en els últims anys a Itàlia. De la fervent activitat en aquest país veí ens arriba el treball de Lami qui, després de destacar en treballs centrats en el paisatge sonor explora les possibilitats sonores i expressives a través d'un treball amb cintes reel-to-reel. L'electrònica més analògica i retro es dóna de la mà de la creació d'avantguarda. "Bias" el concert que presentarà a València es troba a mig camí entre la instal·lació i el concert, Giovanni Lami teixeix paisatges a partir de loops expansius, complexos i plens de textures. Preciosisme sonor analògic des del Nord d'Itàlia. _ "Bias" Etudes for buried and exhumed audio tape. Through its focus on process and materiality, Bias opens the practice of sound ecology beyond the acoustic to consider the audibility of the chemical composition of...

Persona & Lorenza di Calogero / 06.05.2017 by Persona & Lorenza di Calogero _ Persona és el projecte sonor i experimental del músic valencià Daniel Benedito. Aquesta proposta insòlita en el panorama local fa uns anys que es passeja per festivals i sales valencianes del circuit alternatiu. Benedito explora l'ambient i l'electrònica de guitarres planejadores, combinades amb pedals, efectes i diferents estris amb els quals construeix paisatges sonors vaporosos i eteris. Es fa acompanyar també, pel contrabaixista Rafa Ramos qui complementa aquesta proposta d'arrel local i projecció internacional. En directe sempre col·labora i combina la creació sonora amb dansa Butoh. Per a aquesta ocasió treballarà amb la prestigiosa ballarina italiana Lorenza di Calogero una de les representants més destacades de l'escena actual amb una trajectòria espectacular. _ Concert recorded live by Edu Comelles the 6th of May 2017 at Sala Dormitori.

Clara de Asís / 06.05.2017 by Clara de Asís _ Clara de Asís és una experimentadora d'origen gadità establerta a Marsella. Allí, i al llarg dels anys ha anat desenvolupant un treball d'experimentació a partir de la manipulació no convencional de la guitarra elèctrica. A través d'un procés de destil·lat sonor Clara De Asis construeix paisatges drònics i geografies acústiques a partir del feedback, la ressonància i els efectes.  Sens dubte una proposta única en el panorama i un boníssim exemple d'usos alternatius de la guitarra elèctrica. Clara de Asís, tot i els seus orígens andalusos forma part activa de l'escena francesa, des de Marsella. Allí un magma de creadors, músics i experimentadors operen passant desapercebuts en aquest costat dels Pirineus, esperem que per poc temps. _ Concert recorded live by Edu Comelles the 6th of May 2017 at Sala Dormitori.
