[microsound] Microbio News



Hello all, this is our "mounthlly news letter"

1-Release June 2004.
2-Thanks Peru
------------------------------

1- Microbio#17: PROTOV: We Were Young Pioneers EP (Medellin, Colombia)
I meet [neuna] and low-low in Coyhaique, Chile; [neuna]  was 
complaining about every dust particle that was nearing us, then I 
became clear to me that I'm not the only one complaining about 
particles and that there is more people in the region doing similar 
things. Maybe a lot of people, indeed, is doing great stuff in South 
America. No one of us is a pioneer, no one of us is really original; we 
are the mix of several cultures, but  we never take the time to listen 
to our own rich environment and reality.

"Probably the amount of sampling tape used in the making of this EP may 
cover my entire house, but is this work worth of it? It is something 
worth to make more music in a world full of nonsense and terrible 
projects that explore well known and common paths. Projects of people 
who consider themselves pioneers because of an excessive lack of 
knowledge? We are not pioneers. Besides, we'll never produce something 
new, and that's the way we are and that's the way we're going to be"

2-Thanks to Peru

	I just came back from Lima, Peru. I really have to thank all the 
people from Peru because they showed me a different reality and a 
different approach to electronic music. I really went impressed by the 
number of people doing EM in Peru. If you don't know, Peru has the 
higher electoronic music festival on earth (4.100 metter over sea 
level). Peru really surprice me, I got invited to the first 
Iberoamerican Electronic Music Festival "CONTACTO" in the Centro de 
Cultura Español. I have no words to thanks Juan Carlos Barandarian for 
puting together this event. Juan Carlos became a great source of 
inspiration. Also I have to thank Ricardo for the CCE in Lima, Cristian 
Galarreta head of Aloardi Records, Jose Lopez (El Lazo Invisible) for 
being a great "tourist tourman", and all the people who attended our 
concerts and conferences (yeah, we talk about the Netaudio and 
Netlabels comunities). Thanks to all the musicians who were part of 
this festival: Edgar Valcarcel, Fernando Corona "Murcof", Juan Reyes, 
Flo Meneses, Jorge Haro, Felix Lazo, El Lazo (again) Visible ;-), Jaime 
Oliver, Christian Galarreta, Jadin y Nilo Velarde.
