Sometimes opportunities present itself in front of you. You might not know at first glance but eventually you end up being certain about that right decision and the outcome of it through time.

In 2011 after having booked a concert by Avelino Saavedra in Valencia, we approached him and invited to prepare an album for Audiotalaia Digital Catalogue. He was one of the firsts artists to release a work on the label under the premise of meeting him in person before decide whether we release or not his work. A rule we brake sometimes but we try to keep it in full. By that time, 2011, Saavedra delivered “Ink Soundsketches” our 40th release at the date and his first LP by him exploring a limited palette of colours, instrumentation and electronics. That album was an exercise of distillation of certain sonic and musical explorations Saavedra was working on at that time.

Almost 2 years after, Saavedra approached us again, this time he was delivering “MUD” our 63rd in our Digital Catalogue. This album was the consequence of a workflow that narrowed his focus, understanding that a minimalistic approach on sound sources was a path to enhance creativity and increasing the challenge in terms of experimentation. “MUD” was made only using one single instrument, a ridiculously big “Udu” Drum and a few microphones and pedals. The outcome a tapestry of textures and harsh soundscapes made out of sustained and freeze notes, noise and effects. But that was it, Saavedra completely obsessed until exhaustion squeezing all possible outcomes of a very limited process.

Three years we have been waiting for the next call by Avelino Saavedra. Three years in which this Galician-born artist has been recording, playing and releasing music with his fellow saxophonist Josep Lluis Galiana. This duo, focuses attention on various forms of Free Improvisation but mainly: good old Free-Jazz (go to Lusicina Discos or their own bandcamp and dig in). This, intense period (that is not over at all) has consequences. Saavedra has regained and re-invented his very early instrument: drums. Saavedra was born and raised as a drummer for punk and hardcore bands in gloomy Galicia, and hey! That explains a lot, isn’t it?

Playing along with Galiana while recovering the use of a Drum Kit, Saavedra said and stated as some sort of revelation: “yes, I am a drummer, that’s me”. Maybe he already knew, maybe he just needed a little push, after all, Galicians are well known for being very doubtful people.

“Frozen Drumscapes” is the point of convergence between a career that started on the underground Galician hardcore scene and a meticulous process of exploration on the realm of sound composition or experimental music. The point of convergence triggers a very complex and long process of distilling all sonic possibilities of an exquisitely custom-made Drum Kit, a full instrument, composed by various pieces of drums, meticulously chosen pedals and tons of hours of practice, essay and error. And when we say tons of hours, we really mean it. This guy practices, records and plays on a daily basis.

And this is it, again Saavedra, working tirelessly on a single concept, extracting the whole juice to a limited and constrained set of rules, battling constantly with doubt, intuition and assertiveness, all in one, exploring the unknown.

Lets get back to the beginning of the story: “Sometimes opportunities present itself in front of you” this is it. We didn’t know that Ink Soundsketches would (somehow) trigger MUD and we didn’t know that after that, Saavedra would recover drums hand in hand with Galiana. We didn’t know that the next consequence would be something as precise, bold, profound and intelligent as “Frozen Drumscapes”. We didn’t know that, but we are glad to be there and witness that story and the ones to come in the future.

This document is a testimony of 6 Relays that took place in four Spanish cities during May 2014. The events where organized in Valencia by Audiotalaia and the Luis Adelantado Gallery, in Vitoria-Gasteiz by Ainara LeGardon and Artium Museum, in Madrid by Wade Matthews and Espacio Cruce and in Seville by Alejandro Rojas-Marcos and the University of Seville (CICUS).

The recordings here presented are a selection over more than 30hours of recordings done by Edu Comelles. All Relays where statically recorded using three independent digital recorders, each of them placed en each scenario of every Relay. Also a secondary set of recordings was made using binaural microphones technic and while moving.

The final mix here presented is a selection of the Binaural Recordings done during all four Relays. Those recordings are the result of wandering about the spaces in which Relays took place and taking an active position as recordist. This involved fast and slow movements, close-ups to determined gestures and instruments and soundwalks along hallways, corridors and staircases. The outcome of this approach provides a subjective perspective over a multifocal hearing experience that has to be listened through headphones to perceive the dimensionality of binaural sound.

Attached to this document we present three texts by Ainara LeGardon, Wade Matthews and Josep Lluís Galiana who kindly wrote their thoughts on the Relay and all about it. There is also a spanish version of the texts on the PDF booklet.

History of the Relay.



The first Relay took place at 2:13 Club in London, organised by guitarrista and improviser, John Bisset. For many years this was a yearly event. After that first attempt other improviser have been organising Relays in números places.

The german percussionist Burkhard Beins took advantage of an abandoned power plant in Berlin to organize a Relay and cellist Nikos Veliotis did something similar in Athens. Wade Matthews organized a couple of Relays at the Reina Sofia Museum of Madrid, one at a Silk Market from the Sixteen Century in Deir el Kamar at the Shouff Mountains in Lebanon and a fourth one at the Faculty of Arts in Montevideo, Uruguay. As well the swiss violinist Charlotte Hug has organized a memorable Relay that took place inside Paris catacombs (a truly underground event). Finally flutist Jane Rigler organized two Relays at the Museum of Modern Art in New York as a commemoration of the first anniversary of the new building.

One of the main characteristic of the Relays is the acknowledgement of the contribution by other organizers in previous Relays. This who organized the previous Relay are usually included on the organization of the following as a gesture of gratitude. Bisset, Beins and Veliotis participated in all first Relays, while Beins, Veluotis, Hug and Rigler played in all Relays organized by Matthews. Also Beins, Veliotis, Bisset and Matthews participate in both Jane Rigler’s Relays in MOMA and also Matthews played agh the Paris Catacombs Relay organized by Charlotte Hug. Some other participants in all Relays are Robert Dick, Jack Wright, Ikue Mori, Pauline Oliveiros and Jon La Barbara.

Another characteristic of the Relays is that apart from the involvement of music improvisers there is a space for close-by disciplines such as dance through the participation of Valérie Métivier an the choreographer and improviser Elena Alonso among others, there is always a space for other disciplines.

How it works?




At a given time, three trios of musicians start improvising in three nearby scenarios. Ten minutes later another group of participants join the improvisation. Each of them can choose freely where to go. As soon as someone joins an ongoing improvisation one of the musicians has to move to another location to relay someone else. This process takes approximately 2 hours in which music is constantly changing as musicians come and go. At last, its also possible that all musicians join in a given point and end up the event playing all together.

Texts:

In the month of May, hunger and roses. Such disparate bedfellows!

Or so an old Spanish saying would have it, but there is no particular reason to think that hunger and roses will both be present in the same month of May. Maybe these strange bedfellows alternate years. We don’t know, but we don’t really care, either. What matters is that May of 2014 was full of roses. Or maybe I should say rose bushes, because, of everything that blossomed that month, what most captured our attention wasn’t so much the flowers as the gardens themselves. It’s not about the pleasure of contemplating this or that flower, this or that delightful, though fleeting, patch of color. It’s about the satisfaction of finally witnessing the emergence of new and fertile terrains, fields where, with a certain degree of effort and determination, roses will blossom, not only this May but many more in the future. We don’t need to sew the seeds of hunger, it is already strongly rooted in our present economic system, and our politicians cultivate it so well that even many job holders are now living beneath the threshold of poverty.

“Write the book you’d like to read” counsels a recent American saying, and that somehow describes what happened last May. Do you want interesting musical activities to take place where you live? Do you want cutting-edge sound artists to visit from all over the country, and to play with the finest local musicians? And, do you want it to be well organized? Then organize it yourself! That’s what happened and that, hopefully, is what will continue to happen. In Valencia, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Madrid and Seville, a handful of musicians with talent, imagination and initiative were tired of looking at photographs of roses, of listening to interesting musicians only on CDs, of preparing their seeds again and again without every having a garden to plant them in. Finally, they discovered that enthusiasm is a surprisingly powerful force for change, especially when it is shared. Musicians—and I do not employ the term lightly—like Ainara LeGardon, Edu Comelles and Alejandro Rojas Marcos chose to collaborate with me and with their own colleagues to carry out a multiple, ambitious and powerful project. Henry David Thoreau wrote: “If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.” That is exactly what Ainara, Edu, Alejandro and I set out to do. Beneath the castles of our respective musical communities, we have constructed foundations whose cornerstones are clarity and flexibility.

Here, clarity means knowing what you want and how to communicate it to those who cannot help but share your enthusiasm once they understand the project. And so it has been with Olga Adelantado, of the Luis Adelantado Gallery in Valencia; Daniel Castillejo and Mari Fran Machin of Artium in Vitoria-Gasteiz; and in Madrid, Salomé Ramírez, of CRUCE, Mariejo Obeillero, of Esta es una Plaza, and the directors of the Liebre Gallery and Función Lenguaje, respectively. The decision-makers at the CICUS in Seville proved equally open, interested and willing to cooperate.

Clarity also involves something else, something that fosters flexibility. Knowing what you want includes being able to distinguish what is essential from what is merely superficial, understanding that a rose can grow in places that differ considerably from each other, and from where we imagined planting them. That clarity and flexibility imply acting with the agility needed to get twenty musicians to your city so they can share their art, even when the roses decide to show their thorns rather than their flowers, and even when our politicians have depleted cultural subsidies to support causes considerably less noble than the construction of castle foundations.

The result of this dedication, effort, clarity, flexibility and enthusiasm? A Relay of Relays, a harvest of many, many roses with very few thorns. Musicians blossoming in clusters of fifteen or twenty, instrument in hand, sharing their music, enthusiasm and creativity with their own communities and with those of their colleagues, creating another community, a larger garden where, hopefully, new projects will also flourish. None of us could have done this alone, because the lasting project was not the Relay, or even the Relay of Relays. What we were really building was the cooperation that made everything else possible. There is still hunger, and it will not disappear any time soon, but at least we’re starting to see some roses. Hopefully, there are more to come.

Wade Matthews.

The Aura of Space/time

When guitarist John Bisset and flutist and saxophonist Lester Moses organized the first Relay in the history of sound art at the 2:13 club in London in 1992, they had no idea that their particular “multiple concert of free improvisation projected into the public sphere” would spark similar activities around the world. As an annual event, Relays were subsequently organized by other improvisers in numerous cities. German percussionist Burkhard Beins chose an abandoned power plant in Berlin and cellist Nikos Velliotis did something similar in Athens.

Electro-acoustic improviser Wade Matthews has organized two at the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, another in a 16th-century silk market in Deir el Kamar, in the Shouff Mountains of Lebanon, and a fourth in Montevideo, at the National University of Uruguay’s School of the Arts. Swiss violist Charlotte Hug organized one in the catacombs of Paris, the most underground of any so far, and even the city that never sleeps shared this adventure when improvising flutist Jane Rigler organized two at New York’s MoMA to mark the first anniversary of its new building.

This celebration of a place and a moment with the participation of numerous musicians has finally reached Valencia. Sixteen musicians moving freely between three areas in the Luis Adelantado Gallery have carried out a “session of improvised music in constant motion” that faithfully connects the Relay with the dérive, a Situationist practice that Guy Debord defined as “a technique of rapid passage through varied ambiences.” For him, as author of The Society of the Spectacle, the construction of a situation involves building a transitory micro-environment and unfolding artistic, psychological, emotional, acoustic, political, economic and environmental events, among others, to generate a unique moment in the lives of various people.

Hic et nunc, the here and now that constitutes the essence of a Relay, is not the only element connecting this experience with the theory of the dérive, and also with the figure of the flâneur evoked by Baudelaire and later, in the context of the modern city, by Walter Benjamin. Each free improviser is like an installation or sound sculpture created to exist—ephemerally—in a particular space. He or she is thus site-specific, and that site owes its existence to sound, constituting a resonant space where time stops, bringing to mind Benjamin’s aura: “an original tissue made up of space and time.” This sonic aura extends over all of us, enveloping us and drawing us into its exclusive and festive play-space, where there is room for chance situations and unpredictable reactions, where the definitive is avoided, the border between art and everyday life is set aside and life is lived freely through careful listening and intuition. The Relay captures the joy of instantaneous and fleeting creative experience, a participation in collective creation that places both the improviser and the listener/viewer on the path to a liberating and unlimited sound world.

Josep Lluís Galiana

If I were to describe the Relay with just one word, it would be commitment—an agreement to exercise our responsibility in pursuit of music (and I am tempted to write Music, with a capital “m”).

Another word would be trust—the encouragement from others that potentiates one’s own decisions.

The relay marks our turn to maintain the network, a tightly knotted net with links and connections that insure continuity of movement. We are waves carrying the message in its bottle, and some of us play the role of the wind while others are the Moon’s gravitational pull, or the mass of water on which it floats, or even the foam that cushions its journey… Together, we cradle and transport the idea of commitment.

Following last May’s Relay of Relays, it was a pleasure to collapse after crossing the finish line, because the goal of thrilling, and of thrilling ourselves, had been reached. The seed was sewn and the baton passed to other hands so the adventure could continue.

Enjoy listening

_

Off_Herzios, nació en 2012 como circuito itinerante de Arte Sonoro y Músicas Extrañas. A lo largo de 10 meses el certamen recorrió las principales galerías de arte de la Ciudad de Valencia. En su primer año de vida Off_Herzios ofreció a la ciudad más de 25 actuaciones repartidas a lo largo del curso ofreciendo una extensa y variada panorámica sobre el arte sonoro y las músicas experimentales en nuestro país y más concretamente en la Comunidad Valenciana.

Después del éxito de crítica y público, Off_Hz muta en una nueva forma y en vez de itinerar por galerías de arte, asienta su programación en un punto neurálgico, una caja resonante y un referente arquitectónico: La Sala La Gallera del Consorcio de Museos de la Comunidad Valenciana.

La programación de Off_Hz en la Gallera girará entorno a tres ejes principales: conciertos, comisariados de escucha y showrooms. Estas tres actividades se articularán en este singular espacio a lo largo de 4 meses, de enero a abril del 2014.

Esta nueva andadura producida por Audiotalaia pretende generar un espacio de reflexión, escucha y descubrimiento de las artes sonoras, su ambición es la de abrir el mundo del sonido a la ciudadanía llenando La Gallera de sonidos.

Off_Herzios / La Gallera Suena es una invitación a la escucha, un lugar de encuentro y manifestación, un lugar dónde hacer resonar propuestas emergentes y proyectos consagrados, un lugar para la escucha y la transmisión.

Avelino Saavedra, a well known multidisciplinary artist living in Valencia. He delivers his second album for Audiotalaia. As usual in Saavedra’s work, each album comes with a thorough exploration of one single instrument. In this case, Saavedra choose a “Udu drum” with exceptional size and weight.

Saavedra found this massive version of a “Udu drum” on a road-shop somewhere in Galicia, and brought it back to Valencia. As soon as the “Udu drum” was on Saavedra’s studio, the research, improvisation and processing of sounds taken from this instrument began.

I had the chance to attend the first concert of Saavedra with this new project a few months ago at Plutón in Valencia. Impressed by the resources and intuition of Saavedra playing this massive ceramics drum I asked him to deliver an album based on that instrument. After a few months here we have this MUD a sound composition synthesis of this project.

MUD, is basically a systemic study of an instrument and its resonance capabilities. Also is the culmination of the mixture between sound processing and live improvisation with a very limited palette of sounds and effects.

As usual in Saavedra’s work one can grasp the enormous amount of time invested on developing, to get the finest results, in terms of sound. Earlier in spring, Saavedra stated (while talking about this album) that his idea was to squeeze all the capabilities of this instrument until depletion. So he did, and this is the modus operandi of Saavedra, to be able to extract the most of it of his instruments and deliver a closed-up project, without cracks, a full album, enclosed and finished.

Desde La Atalaia is a various artists compilation assembled and curated by Edu Comelles. This compilation aims to be a keystone on Audiotalaia Catalogue. We have asked over 31 artists from Spain to deliver new compositions for this special release. The outcome is a gathering of works that shows the good health of Spanish experimental music. This collection built in four volumes provides a wide range of sonorities ranging from field recordings to digital composition based on glitch, drones, pads, rhythms, electroacoustic pieces and all kinds of genres and sub genres (if there is so) on what we understand as experimental music, sound art, phonography etc,...

Texts:

One of the great things about Creative Commons netlabels is how international the environment is. You could be listening to an ambient album from Iran, collages from Paris, drones from St. Louis, field recordings from London, or, well, you get the point. With just a few downloads, you are connected to the world. Though this international flavor of the netlabel scene does have a drawback — you hear about so many exciting things going on around the world such as a concert in Chicago, a festival in Berlin, or, once again, you get the point. Now, instead of feeling connected, one may have the feeling of disconnection.

This disengagement can even lead to a feeling “the grass is always greener” ? what they’re doing in Washington is more interesting in what’s going on in Philadelphia. But what the musician needs to understand is what she is doing is Los Angeles equally as important as what the netlabel manager is doing in Hungary or the downloader in Manchester. We need to embrace this awkward internalization and somehow use it to build stronger ways to approach music.

I bring this all up because I had a few email exchanges with Edu Comelles of the wonderful netlabel Audiotalaia on the eve of their 50th release, Desde La Atalaia. This various artist release is remarkable for two reasons. First, in bringing together 31 different musicians from Spain, Comelles has put together an exceptional showcase of experimental music. Desde La Atalaia shows no weakness as, track after track, a passion for music and art can be heard. Maybe you might not like one or two tracks, but any misses are greatly outnumbered by the quality of the rest. What Comelles and others are doing in Spain in quite astonishing. But this is one of those times that a non-Spanish listener, or even Spanish musicians not included in the work, need to sit back, listen and enjoy.

The other reason that this work is noteworthy and this is a testament to Comelles and his understanding of what experimental music is all about is that all the music on this album is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commerical-Share Alike license. Granted, I am a big believer that all experimental music is built on other music, so in necessity, experimental music should always be allowed to be remixed and re-imagined.

This is one of those times that all non-Spanish listeners, or even Spanish musicians not included in the work, need to sit back, listen and enjoy. Celebrate this work with a download. If you are a fan, download some other album from another netlabel. If you are a musician, compose and perform your music. If you are a blogger, write something. And if you are a netlabel operator, keep on discovering and releasing extraordinary works.

El recorrido del sello Audiotalaia hasta la fecha, tal y como queda documentado en esta nutrida recopilación, representa una muestra ejemplar de una parte muy significativa de la creación electroacústica reciente en nuestro entorno. Al escribir electroacústica lo hacemos con toda la intención, pues tras la escucha de estos sonidos resulta muy notable el parentesco de todas estas creaciones —por un lado— entre sí, y —por otro lado— con las que tradicionalmente se han venido agrupando bajo esa denominación, la de música electroacústica.

Ciertamente, muchos de estos trabajos se aproximan estéticamente a (y emplean los recursos técnicos clásicos de) prácticas como el drone, la música glitch, el noise o las grabaciones de campo. Pero estos procedimientos (que, debemos recordar, la música electroacústica más académica ya ha incorporado en su repertorio a lo largo de la última década) son empleados en estas composiciones bajo una perspectiva bastante homogénea —aspecto, reiteramos, que llama particularmente la atención, al tratarse éste de un recopilatorio que une a artistas aparentemente alejados entre sí (al menos en lo geográfico) y, sobre todos, alejados todos ellos de cualquier referente institucional o escuela reconocida—, y de un modo que nos atrevemos a describir como “clásico”.

Entre los rasgos estéticos que caracterizan esa homogeneidad puede destacarse una evidente preocupación por la construcción formal de cada una de las composiciones, que se manifiesta a través de una cuidadosa elaboración de sus respectivos materiales sonoros. Un aspecto que, de nuevo, aproxima estas creaciones al paradigma clásico de la música electroacústica académica, en la misma medida en que lo aleja, por ejemplo, de aproximaciones estéticas más directamente relacionadas con —por poner dos ejemplos— la improvisación libre o el punk.

El uso de las grabaciones de campo, tan frecuente en muchas de estas piezas, también resulta revelador de una característica próxima a la que se acaba de mencionar. En estos trabajos dichas grabaciones no suelen canalizar las preocupaciones propias, por ejemplo, del paisajismo sonoro más “ecológico” (es decir, más vinculado al World Soundscape Project o a las consignas de R. Murray Schafer). Tampoco predomina en estos trabajos el uso de estas grabaciones de campo como mecanismo de denuncia social o política —algo que, por otro lado, ha sido frecuente en nuestro entorno en los últimos tiempos, incluso por parte de varios de los autores presentes en esta recopilación—. Aquí más bien nos encontramos con field recordings destinados a proveer a sus respectivos autores de materiales escogidos por su valor musical, es decir, por sus cualidades estrictamente acústicas, o por su capacidad para ser objeto de manipulación o procesamiento dentro de una estructura formal más elaborada que la ofrecida por la grabación de campo original.

Otra clave de la interpretación que venimos proponiendo (y que, ciertamente, encuentra excepciones puntuales en la escucha de algunos trabajos concretos —lo cual, sin embargo, pensamos que no invalida la percepción general que aquí intentamos expresar—) tiene que ver con la ausencia (de nuevo, en términos generales) de la voz. Ello se relaciona muy directamente con los aspectos ya mencionados en los párrafos anteriores, y de nuevo subraya esa preeminencia —generalizada en todo el recopilatorio— de los aspectos puramente formales de esta música, en oposición a lo que podríamos denominar (conforme a paradigmas estéticos que algunos seguramente considerarán obsoletos) sus contenidos. Y es que, al referirnos a la voz (que, no lo olvidamos, sí aparece —muy puntualmente— en algunos de los trabajos recopilados), con ello lo hacemos también a ciertos elementos que podríamos calificar como semánticos, en el sentido de que transmiten un mensaje, más o menos claro, a través de una serie de referentes compartidos con el auditor. Las músicas presentadas en esta antología son más bien, desde este punto de vista, abstractas, y también nos parece reseñable que compartan ese rasgo con las prácticas compositivas históricamente vinculadas a la academia.

Composiciones, por tanto, abstractas en cuanto a su significación musical y su alejamiento de referencias específicas (históricas, políticas, sociales, etc.), pero —como ya hemos mencionado— concretas en tanto que se basan en la manipulación de objetos sonoros (conforme a la definición schaefferiana de este término) como procedimiento compositivo básico. Son músicas más cercanas, por tanto, a (Pierre) Schaeffer que a (R. Murray) Schafer, y a la escuela europea de la música electroacústica —entendida como fusión de las vertientes concreta y electrónica—, que por ejemplo a las prácticas americanas vinculadas a la Experimental Music o a la música procesual (ello, curiosamente, incluso en los casos de obras más cercanas al drone).

Como reflexiones finales derivadas de estas observaciones, en primer lugar cabe desmentir una afirmación vertida unas líneas más arriba. Mencionábamos allí que los autores seleccionados para esta compilación no pertenecían, en principio, a ninguna escuela reconocida, ni tenían en común haber estudiado en una misma institución. Pero, tras la escucha de estos trabajos, y teniendo en cuenta los aspectos hasta aquí analizados, es difícil no reconocer en estas creaciones la fundamental impronta de una figura como la de Francisco López. Su influencia, pensamos, es clara —a veces, excesivamente clara— en casi todas estas composiciones, y las causas y efectos de este hecho merecerían, quizá, un análisis que supera las pretensiones de estas páginas.

Finalmente queremos señalar nuestra sorpresa al detectar tantas y tan profundas similitudes entre la generalidad de estos trabajos —surgidos, recordémoslo, en el contexto de un sello de vocación independiente, desvinculado de cualquier apoyo institucional— y la de las composiciones que habitualmente surgen de contextos académicos (como las que, por ejemplo, se recopilan en las ediciones realizadas en los últimos años por instituciones como la AMEE —Asociación de Música Electroacústica de España—). Por supuesto, esto no es en absoluto una crítica a las obras recopiladas por el sello Audiotalaia. Más bien al contrario, estas similitudes deberían llamar la atención de los responsables de esas instituciones y centros educativos (conservatorios, laboratorios de electroacústica, etc.), pues la escucha de esta antología revela cómo numerosos autores, sin soporte institucional alguno, están realizando trabajos de muy semejante alcance estético y refinamiento técnico. Pero, junto a esta observación, inmediatamente surge una duda al constatar estos hechos: ¿por qué, entonces, músicas como las recopiladas aquí por Audiotalaia no están gozando del mismo apoyo institucional —a través de, por ejemplo, ediciones discográficas y presentaciones en concierto financiadas en su totalidad con fondos públicos— del que disfrutan esas otras creaciones, tan parecidas, surgidas al amparo de asociaciones como la AMEE?

Dejamos resonando esas cuestiones, junto a todas las otras que nos lanza esta importante recopilación producida por Audiotalaia, mientras felicitamos —no cabe otra posibilidad— a sus responsables, particularmente a Edu Comelles, así como a todos los autores participantes no sólo en esta antología, sino en una escena musical que, tras un momento inicial de reconocimiento y cohesión de sus miembros (tal y como el que este compendio refleja perfectamente), esperamos pueda a partir de ahora estallar en una proliferación de aproximaciones estéticas mucho más diversas entre sí, y aún más arriesgadas en sus exploraciones sonoras.

La vida de Audiotalaia y de Sismógrafo corren de alguna manera por vías paralelas. Ambos proyectos nacen en 2007 y, si bien es cierto que el programa de radio que dirijo no comenzó a emitirse hasta un año después, en mi cabeza me gusta pensar que vamos de la mano. La referencia nº 13 de la plataforma creada por Edu Comelles sonó en el programa 01, creo recordar que fue el corte Gravity of the Moon de Filipe Cruz a.k.a ps. Desde entonces en la sección dedicada a los netlabels más interesantes de la red, Audiotalaia ha sido el sello que más veces ha aparecido. No es casualidad. La calidad de su propuestas, la edición y el criterio seguido, lo convierten en uno de mis favoritos. Si tuviera que nombrar cinco netlabels de entre todos los que conozco, no tengo ninguna duda: Audiotalaia sería uno de ellos.

Mas paralelismos. A comienzos de año decidí que la sección sobre netlabels no tenía más sentido; ¡tantos trabajos increíbles editados bajo Licencia CC y sólo podía poner uno en cada programa!, ¿a quién se le había ocurrido semejante tontería?. A mi, tristemente fue a mi. Así que, igual que lo hice, lo deshice....y ahí de nuevo aparece Edu Comelles y Audiotalaia. La plataforma que dirige se transforma en los últimos meses en algo más amplio. Compartimos la idea de la necesidad de dar un paso más allá, los netlabels tienen que redefinirse y ocupar nuevos espacios por la propia lógica evolutiva. En ese proceso también estamos de alguna forma de la mano.

Audiotalaia desde hace cinco años es un protagonista fundamental en la escena netaudio, pero lo más importante es que, estoy seguro, será uno de los agentes que indique por donde deberemos transitar los cinco próximos. Felicidades y gracias por todo.

CICLO HERZIOS!
2010-2012 / Valencia, La Clínica Mundana.

El Ciclo Herzios fue una serie de conciertos que tuvieron lugar en La Clínica Mundana. Después de dos años de actividad ininterrumpida, el ciclo finalizó su actividad.

A lo largo de los dos años de vida artistas de Valencia y el resto del estado, participaron en los conciertos conformando una iniciativa única en el ámbito de la música experimental y electrónica en Valencia.

El ciclo Herzios ha sido ámpliamente reconocido por medios locales y nacionales y ha recibido el apoyo de muchos artistas emergentes. El objetivo de Herzios siempre fué el de ofrecer un espacio para la realización de conciertos a proyectos locales y a la vez combinar esa labor ofreciendo espacio a aquellos artistas interesados del resto del estado.

De dicha empresa surgió un recopilatorio que recoge una variada plétora de composiciones inéditas o reeditadas e incluso un extenso archivo con grabaciones íntegras de conciertos celebrados en el Ciclo Herzios. La compilación y el archivo accesible en el siguiente enlace cuenta con la presencia de artistas tales como Llorenç Barber, Juan Antonio Nieto, Ferrer-Molina, Javier Piñango, Alozeau, Jean Montag o Avelino Saavedra entre muchos otros.

Ciclo Herzios fué fundado y coordinado por Josué Coloma y en una segunda etapa, coordinado por Edu Comelles hasta su fin.

Ciclo Herzios was a monthly series of concerts held in Valencia at La Clínica Mundana. After almost 2 years of uninterrupted events, Ciclo Herzios closed its activity.

During the course of concerts we invited artists form Valencia and the rest of Spain to participate on this activities that became a milestone of experimental Music endevours in Valencia.

Ciclo Herzios have been widely reported by local media and National radio Stations and has received support by many emergent artists. Our aim was to provide a space where local artists could play life and also a venue to host artists touring Spain.

Ciclo Herzios curated a compilation gathering most of the participants on the Series of concerts. The compilation counts with works by Llorenç Barber, Juan Antonio Nieto and many other artists tha have been present on Ciclo Herzios.

Ciclo Herzios was founded and curated by Josué Coloma and on a second period curated by Edu Comelles until its end.

Avelino Saavedra is a multidisciplinary artist currently living in Valencia, Spain. His work ranges from ink drawings to sound performance, video and painting. Musically trained as a drummer, Saavedra has been involved since many years in various projects of free improvisation, jazz, performance arts, noise, experimentation and hardcore. Collaborations include pieces with well known spanish performer Bartolomé Ferrando, Truna and Martí Guillem (AttA). Currently he is involved in the improvisation ensemble created at La Clinica Mundana, La Orquesta Mundana, a joint of various experimental musicians from Valencia. The very specificity of Saavedra’s sound is based on the usage of infinite variety of instruments, objects and materials. He builds his own flutes and collects anything that can produce a sound.

His work is mainly based on analogue equipment. His personal process of work involves recording live and realtime processing of sound through loops, pedals, and analogue effects. Therefor the very nature of Saavedra sound is based on organicity and intuition passing through postproduction and editing, Saavedra delivers sound sketches that are unique. On live concerts he’s working under the same premises providing to his live performance with a big charge of unexpectancy.

Luckily I had the opportunity to hear Saavedra live many times in Valencia and the consistency of his approach is widely regarded a a fresh and active performance in which the listener is always paying attention to Saavedra’s movements.

After a few months of preparation he delivers this Ink Soundsketches, the first CC licensed album by this Galician artist. Ink Soundsketches is a gathering of various live recordings done at home in which Saavedra explores the compositional possibilities that can arise from various Eastern traditional instruments, oscillators, pedals and reverbs.

Instead of using a bast palette of instruments and sound objects Ink Soundsketches is a close up to a few instruments that Saavedra controls and tweaks its sounds building drones, pads; always splattered with sound textures pulled out through a process of learning and understanding the nature of those instruments.

Reviews:

O artista galego Avelino Saavedra publicou no net label Audiotalaia o seu primeiro traballo baixo licenzas Creative Commons. Ink SoundSketches é un conxunto de 5 temas nos que Saavedra explora as posibilidades sonoras de varios instrumentos asiáticos.

O traballo de Saavedra nace a partir da intuición e a mestura de distintas técnicas e tecnoloxías analóxicas. Tanto o seu traballo como artista visual como o seu traballo sonoro están sustentados por unha idea común que crece a partir da observación escóitaa e o traballo metódico.

Finalmente, Ink SoundSketches é un percorrido sonoro experimental que nos leva a través dunha tradición musical e sonora desmenuzada, transformada e reinventada.

Zeitgenössische Tonkunst aus Spanien erreichte mich bisher immer aus der katalanischen Stadt Barcelona, eine Begebenheit, die sich mit dem gebürtigen Galicier Avelino Saavedra, der in Valencia residiert, nicht (bzw. nur ansatzweise) bestätigt, welcher auf “Ink Soundsketches” Ambient mit Gänsehautfaktor zelebriert.

“Ink Soundsketches” erschien bei dem ebenfalls in Valencia ansässigen Label Audiotalaia, das Herr Edu Comelles führt, dessen Konzept auf einem Dialog von Tonkunst & Herkunft beruht. Zudem stehen alle Releases auf der katalanischen Manufaktur zum kostenfreien Download, womit aber Audiotalaia der Klasse von Avelino Saavedra nicht gerecht wird, welcher definitiv auf eine rein physikalische Veröffentlichung gehört.

Innerhalb seiner dunklen Klangcollagen verarbeitet der Spanier Themen aus den Gebieten Genetik, Natur & Mythologie, die sich alle in einem esoterischen Kontext befinden, das der Künstler perfekt mittels Instrumente wie Gong in die Tonkunst transportierte, weshalb die Konsumenten auf “Ink Soundsketches” in eine wohlig warme Welt mit hohem Berauschungsfaktor eintauchen. Aber wie bei den meisten Publikationen im Ambient dominieren die Sounds das Geschehen, wo Avelino Saavedra auf Organik setzt, die er mittels analoger Signale (Gong, Schellen, Schlagwerk (Blech) usw. ) erschafft, welche der Arbeit eine gewisse Komplexität verleihen. Des Weiteren verwendete der Galicier unzählige Effekt, deren Strukturen oft in Schleifen enden, das diesem Oeuvre einen entspannenden Charakter verleiht, der sich von Durchlauf zu Durchlauf steigert und teilweise an buddhistische Zeremonien erinnert. Wer sich gerne asiatischen Klängen hingibt, sollte “Ink Soundsketches” unbedingt antesten, das vor allem durch seine phänomenale Ausdruckskraft, & die daraus resultierende Vereinnahmung, besticht. Insgesamt ein sehr geschlossenes Opus, dessen Stärke auf der konzeptionellen Begabung des Protagonisten beruht, der alle Tondokumente im Liveaufnahmeverfahren erschuf, weshalb die Hörerschaft hier absolut unique Kunst erfährt, welche von der ersten bis zur letzten Sekunde einfängt und verzaubert – Wahnsinn!

Anspieltipp? 
Durchgängiger Hochgenuss, den man bei Gefallen definitiv nicht abbricht! PS: Love it or hate it!

Fazit:
Avelino Saavedra präsentiert mit “Ink Soundsketches” ein Meisterwerk des Ambient, das aufgrund seiner phantastischen Instrumentierung seines Gleichen sucht – meine absolute Empfehlung! PS: Wer Buddha genauso schätzt wie experimentelle Elektronik, muss diese Arbeit unbedingt gehört haben!
