Comment:
there are some
characteristics which used to leap to the eye (ear). The issue is a
very short tenure of 5 compositions clocking in at a 10 minute.
Secondly, some compositions are very disparate ranging from field
recording samples and glitched-out minimal electronic gaits and the
manipulations of a short wave radio to folksy, homespun accordion
glimpses. The issue is
created by a visual and
sound artist from Bilbao,
the Basque Country. Sarah
Rasines has been an active woman of performing in different venues
and galleries across Spain during the last five years. The Basque
accordion trikitixa
represented on polka
and canción popular is
played by Òscar Ortiz
Guemez. This mind-provoking outing is recorded in Bilbao, and in
Hämeenkyrö, Finland by using a PC, a mixing desk, and a recorder.
It is pleasant to follow of how the issue is adeptly equilibrated
between natural and synthesised sounds. And what about the short
waves of a radio
to be manipulated for? The
issue is a bit in the discography of Chicago, US-based imprint Pan Y
Rosas Discos.
