[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.
