☼ (português)

Convidados por João Sousa, este quarteto nasce em quarentena, desafiado a gravar os seus instrumentos com os seus telefones ou dispositivos de gravação, para criar peças improvisadas como um hino ao que parece ser aleatório, mas que se mostra como verdadeira conexão.

☼ (english)

Invited by João Sousa, this quartet born under quarantine was challenged to record their own instruments with their own phones or recording devices, to create improvised pieces as an hymn to what appear to be random, but shows up as true connection.

João Sousa - Fundo [2018]

"fundo" é uma colecção de frases de diferentes projectos, partilhas, peças de teatro... tocados na Golden Star Community (Ladoeiro, Idanha-a-Nova) durante o Festival Fiat Lux.

A 23 de Junho pelas 11 da manhã toquei para cerca de 10 a 15 pessoas o que seria o meu primeiro concreto meditativo, com uma guitarra eléctrica, um delay que uso há 10 anos e um flanger...

Foi gravado pelo Hélder e (in)felizmente apanhou muita distorção do output da mesa de mistura... o que... na verdade curtimos muito aqui na partícula... então o Tiago Eira ouviu, masterizou a coisa e fez-me uma capa brutal como se vê!

"fundo" is a collection of sentences and music phrases from different projects, bands, plays and sharing moments... played on Golden Star Community (Ladoeiro, Idanha-a-Nova) during the Fiat Lux Festival.

23rd June , at 11 a.m. I played for maybe 10 to 15 people what was supposed to be my first meditative concert, with an electric guitar, and analogue delay i've been using for almost 10 years and a flanger...

It was recorded by Hélder José and (un)fortunately it was caught with loads of distortion from the mixing console output... the thing is... we really liked it at Partícula... so Tiago Eira listened to it, mastered the sound and made this beautiful cover as you can see!

Obrigado por tudo a todxs 😊
