Sonido Descompuesto

by David Velez

supported by

drone2805 With this album, David Velez makes us take full advantage of his incredible talent. The sampling is so immense that an artist could easily be lost in its composition. Instead, Velez successfully took up the challenge, dividing the work into several sections representing special moods where the sounds and rhythms blend perfectly! A bold and extremely successful work with different elaborate deep drones. Bravo!

about

“On January of 2011 I visited “Las Margaritas” a farm where my aunt and uncle have a country house, crops and some cattle too. The land is located between the towns of Briceño and Zipaquira and for a few days I stayed there and dedicated mostly to capture sounds.

The diversity of objects and landscapes there was incredible rich: the river Neusa passes near by so there is water running everywhere acquiring different sonorities through different points. They were also farmers playing acoustic guitar and old vinyls being played in the house. The different agricultural activities, the animals, the chimney’s combustion, the bugs, the old tractors, the construction work around the farm, the many wind mobiles, they all had beautiful sonorities. There is also a forest close to the farm filled with what seemed like phosphorescent moss: the space is obscured by the many trees but a “green” light comes off the floor: the place was particularly silent and quiet sounding. Overall I just had incredible sounds everywhere and plenty of time to record them.

With the sounds captured I first worked on a an improvisational piece (#0) that later would be edited (#1). Then I composed a series of short fragments (a, b, c, d). #1 was then put together with a, b, c, d on a second edit (#2). The second edit was then split into small fragments (#2/8) and rearranged intuitively (#3).

#3 is “Sonido descompuesto” (Decomposed sound).”(David Velez)

Signing up for the Kevin Drumm playlist pays for itself so many times over that it's laughable. He also proves he can compete in the Chris Watson/ BJ Nilsen universe. unruh2525

Isn't this what Sigmund Freud called "regression in the service of ego", creativity as a temporal loss of the well-tempered adults mind. And I would also like to remind of the childs method to exert control over separation through, what Freud calls, "fort und da" i.e. the childs command adressed to the spool thrown out with a thread connected. Fascinating music reminding me of Sigmund Freud. Many thx! sven thomas nordlöf
