ALVAREZ: Music for Person, PC and Cheap Software

Tengo el gran honor de presentarles a Alvarez, cybercompositor sudamericano que gentilmente nos ha distinguido con el privilegio de publicar por primera vez en la blogosfera su primer trabajo en CD, "Musica Para Persona, Computadora Y Software Barato", del año 2004, con el cual abro un espacio que de cabida a artistas invitados dispuestos a compartir libremente su música.

Oriundo de Venezuela, con su música basada en secuencias de estructuras simples y un acertado uso del sampleo, Alvarez nos conduce por ambientes unas veces ácidos, otras veces obscuros, como un descenso a aguas profundas, como un bucear en lo profundo del subsconsciente. No es un álbum musicalmente complejo, y creo que precisamente en eso consiste su acierto. Como la poesía que es reflejo de una época, o una reacción a esa epoca.

Tracks:
01 - Death Of Robert Fripp
02 - I Want To Be A Goblin - Hitler Is dead
03 - For Who I Was In 1985
04 - A Brief Disertation About A Possible japan

I have the great honour of present you to Alvarez, a southamerican cybercomposer whose gentleness has distinguished to us with the distinction of publish for first time on the Blogland his first musical work on CD, "Music For Person, Computer And Cheap Software", from 2004, and with this one I do open a space for guest artists willing to share freely their own music.
Coming from Venezuela, his music is based in structully simple secuences and a right sampling use, Alvarez take us through acid ambiences, sometimes obscures, as a sink in deep waters, as a diving in the deepness of the subconscient. 

It is not a musically complex album, and precisely I think that is its good shot. It is as the poetry as the reflex of a time, or as a reaction to that time. 
Personally, I like specially "The Messy Adventures Of Doctor Orloff Zokorgnoc" track, someway resembling to me the old TV clase B suspense series and "Pulp" comics and novels, despite his true intention. "Custer's Nightmare" track is very good too. To conclude, this is an aestetically good realized album, with very good taste and I hope to post his second album as soon as possible.

Guest Artists: V. A. - A Buddhist Celebration

Today is a special date for me. It was many years ago I did to take Buddhist Refuge and Universal Vow. So I wish to share my happiness about it, sharing with the visiters of this blog a special selection of buddhist music by various artists and religious personalities, I did to compile for the time as guest artists. One reason for doing that, is to let this music be the way to bring you a little bit of peace, harmony and relax to your mind. And may this music bring you a moment of enlightned happiness. I wish to express many thanks to the people made this music, to my fellows of the Way, to the fellow guidings, to the Master, to The Buddha, to the Dharma, to the Sangha, to the Life...

Thank you very much.
