dromos010 Manuel Mota - Rck


Long awaited monolithic boxset release from Manuel Mota, his second so far on Dromos.
Material spreads from solo electric and acoustic to various live performances across the five discs. After more than a couple of decades of activity one might believe he knows what to expect of Mota, but the evolution in his work is constant and ever-developing.
Throughout each disc and piece of music, Manuel Mota's suspended structures and isolated notes resonate with the intimacy and sentiment Manuel always has put into his music, a parameter often ignored in modern improvisation. Playing by his own definitions of time and space, Mota makes "Rck" an essential deliverence of his unique and different approach in instumentation,material, structure and even acoustic spaces (which he uses often to his benefit).

Every boxset comes in a clamcase, signed and nubered with a different drawing by Manuel Mota on each cover. On the inside, among liner notes by Tetuzi Akiyama and accompanying recording information, there is a set of five different original prints made by portuguese artist Ana Teresa Ascensão, each one made with a specific record in mind.

dromos009 Leonel Kaplan/Christof Kurzmann/Edén Carrasco - Casa Corp



Second release for the accomplished trio of Leonel Kaplan, Christof Kurzmann and Edén Carrasco on the follow of last years brilliant Una Casa/Observatorio.
Recorded in Buenos Aires, roughly a year after the two pieces that compose the first release, Casa Corp reveals both a continuity and a progession of the trios improvisation.
Throughout the single pice, the most outstanding aspect of the record is the interplay between the musicians, up to a point, when several times the sound source becomes intangible, despite the presence of such significant individual voices.
Everyone knows their instruments range all too well,great attention is paid to detail as no sound is ever forced upon the careful structure.
Elements of pop sensibility, reminiscent of Kurzmann's work in The Magic I.D., are articulated with gentle strokes, percutive sounds, electronic hisses and blips along with scraping reeds as textures arise, coalesce and fade away.
An extremely beautiful and focused record.

The artwork,made by American artist Thuy-Van Vu, consists of 200 prints of an original oil painting created for this album. All have different degrees of degradation and are created using a photo transfer process.
The cover images are focused on the theme of destroyed home and architectural structures, a constant motif of Thuy-Van's work and one with an obvious strong connection to Casa Corp.
