Bio
ESP Con apenas unos teclados de juguete y un montón de pedales de segunda mano, estos dos personajes de ciencia ficción decidieron crear sus canciones desde la habitación de un hostal para estudiantes de Londres. Sintonías lo-fi que recrean aquellos sonidos de las bandas de los 90 que tanto admiraban: Godspeed You Black Emperor, Disco Inferno, Mogwai, Flying Saucer Attack, o Tortoise. En cuanto a sus influencias nacionales, se declaran incondicionales de los ásperos ritmos industriales de Esplendor Geométrico y del pop maquinal grabado a baja fidelidad de Telefilme. Dureza y vacío, melodía y sorpresa, post-electrónica instrumental basada en lo palpable, contorsión imposible de botones, una verdadera revolución de las máquinas, algunas tan familiares como un Casio CZ-1000, la querida caja de ritmos TR505... "do it yourself" en esencia. El resultado de todo este engranaje es un trabajo homónimo, registrado entre Noviembre de 2008 y Enero de 2009 en Vauxhall (Londres) y masterizado en Barcelona. ..................................................................... ENG With just some toy keyboards and a bunch of second hand pedals, these two sci-fi individuals decided to create their songs from the room of a hostel for students in London, trying to reproduce sounds from those bands they admired in the 90s: Godspeed You Black Emperor, Disco Inferno, Mogwai, Flying Saucer Attack, Tortoise... Also strongly influenced by Spanish unusual but classic bands in the electronic scene like Esplendor Geométrico (harsh industrial sounds) and the mechanical low-fi pop of Telefilme. Hardness and emptiness, melody and surprise, instrumental post-electronic based on the palpable, impossible contortion of buttons, a revolution of the machines, some as familiar as the Casio CZ-1000 or the beloved TR505 drum machine ... an ode to the "do it yourself". The result is a homonym album, recorded between November 2008 and January 2009 in Vauxhall (London) and mastered in Barcelona. The result of all this gear of genres is a9 tracks album, 'The Suicide Of Western Band' (titled to the name of the band), registered between November 2008 and January 2009 in Vauxhall (London) and mastered in Barcelona. -

Shruthi-1 | Mutable instruments
The Shruthi-1 is a hybrid digital/analog monosynth. Its hardware design is deceptively simple, but the sonic range is wide: sometimes grungily digital like a PPG-Wave, fat and funky like a SH-101, videogame-y like a Commodore 64, weird and warm like an ESQ-1 ; but more often than not, truly original...
