Hybrid Song Hybrid Song
Truly an hybrid song! Flamenco guitar and lead voice, Indian satin girl, Japanese percussion, synths, electronics, noises, seagulls...




My starting point is quite simple: any sound can be used as a musical element; everything depends on the context in which it is situated. So, the challenge is to find the method of combining sonic elements from different sources (noises and FXs, musical melodies and harmonies, elements of ethnic music, natural, synthetic and processed sounds...) in a coherent manner. Therefore what is pursued is the result of that combination of different elements between each other, not the development of any of them saparately. According to the process employed, many times my mentality as composer is closer to that of a painter than that of a musician, and the work could be understood as a kind of musical painting.
