Algorave BCN

December 1st I'll present some interactive stuff that relates to an ongoing investigation about loops and postproduction of music at Algorave Barcelona. I'm not that much into live coding becase 1) I suck at coding, 2) Max/MSP sucks as a live coding platform and is the only thing I know a bit and 3) I have some issues with the idea of me doing live coding that I don't want to address right now. But Algorave is not only live coding, so please come by and enjoy a nice glitchy concert! There will be a couple of high profile live coders there.

Residency at L'Estruch

During October, I'll be spending some days every week in this very nice studio in Sabadell, near Barcelona, in a residency/art center called L'Estruch. Not bad having 8 Genelecs and a nice subwoofer to experiment with...

I'll be experimenting with sound generated by clicks/pulses and what happens when you speed them up to the point they become tones. That's not really new, but I'm willing to check what happens when these clicks are distributed spatially - I don't really know what's going to happen, but I hope to be able to make some music with it.

Trans Europe Express - transbaixada baile funk mix

This was an old bootleg remix I did (Kraftwerk's TEE vs baile funk goodness). This was played a LOT in a party that was very important a few years ago in Rio de Janeiro (Festa Phunk), and people went crazy on the floor. Recently, I stumbled onto it again (for parties in Barcelona), so I'm uploading it even though its EQ is horrible. Anyway, I feel now like doing some experiments mixing Roc Jiménez de Cisneros ideas of Hyperobjects (which he applied to the Hoover synth sound from many rave techno hits) to some Baile Funk's themes. Let's see how it fares.
