If you are familiar with my trip reviews of Atonal (2017, 2018, 2021), you already know what I do here… if not, here is a little introduction: The following chronicle is a mixture of AV review of the festival, offering my personal opinion over the performances I had the chance to enjoy, combined with or altered by my experiences with psychedelics (mushrooms). The combination of these two, Berlin Atonal and…
It’s been a while… for many things. No concerts, no festivals, limited social life, etc, etc. you know what I’m talking about. Every unusual situation brings with it an opportunity to question what’s important, or what’s the purpose of doing or keep on doing something. Is it that important to attend to this concert or that festival? Does it really matter so much? Should I write this review? For which…
Before I start with my personal Top 10 albums of this year, I must say two obvious things: 1st. I regret having this blog nearly abandoned, specially missed to have the time to write my review of last Atonal Festival, again one of my highlights of the year… and 2nd. it’s quite hard for me to resume the year in 10 albums, as there has been so many great albums…
We are in the equator of Berlin Atonal 2018, facing the program for Day III. Something you learn in life is that after a big wave there is a moment to reach the bottom. The higher you get, the lower point you gonna touch later on. That works with drugs, with feelings, with work / art-works, but also in places such as Atonal Festival. It’s like a natural order. So…
Before Berlin Atonal 2018 took place, I wasn’t sure about writing this review. As I usually don’t like to repeat myself, even though I repeated once again the experience of attending the full festival and doing it under the effect of my beloved mushrooms. At the same time I find writing a review important and necessary, as the experience and the festival itself offers me such amount of inputs and…
This farewell is not a goodbye, it’s more like in its original sense, a sentence that derives from the vikings, from the norwegian words: "far vell" which means "travel good". This mixtape is meant to be a companion in the journey and at the same the journey itself. It has been compiled and mixed thinking in that important trip we all do at least once, between what we call “life”…
Yes, it’s that time of the year… the end. And yes, I am one of those who likes to look back and see which were my highlights of the year, not only at a personal and professional level, but also regarding music, as music is one of my main sources of inspiration. As you probably know already my work is deeply connected with music, so I believe that in order…
As it happens a lot of times, I came across these albums due to the artwork in the cover. The first time I just saw that image of ``Volume Two``, I don't remember where but I do remember saving the image in my computer in my folder of inspiring images. The second time I came across it I realized it was that, a cover of an album, a second volume,…
It’s been a long time since my previous selection of videos [Video Input I] and believe me, my plan was to keep a continuous flow of curated video selections. But I realize I spend far less time digging in Vimeo as I did before, on the other hand I select much more where I spent my time and which videos I watch. If a video doesn’t keep my attention longer…
If you read already the first part of this review of Berlin Atonal 2017, you already know I'm taking you through an audio-visual journey spiced up with some mushrooms, just to refresh your mind. As I commented in part 1, my vision of the festival, my highlights are extremely a personal choice, and I’m happy that I shared conversations during the festival where other people have different views. Also I…
