AMBIE—TÓN002
•
Open edition
El AMBIE—TÓN is back. As its title suggests, #002 is an exercise of memory. It is a place where water blooms on the earth and wind sweeps through the mountains. It is jungle and city. Mountain and noise. Imbalance and harmony.
It is a lake in the sky, a forest between seas.
A still cloud in la cordillera, a name that floats.
This collaboration between Colombian Drone Mafia and Gibrana Cervantes is the beginning and end of a fragile geography, like the magic and mafia of our platanal, a bridge between the Americas.
CDM is the new alias of Nyksan, Bogota-born DJ sound artist and co-founder of TraTraTrax. Here, he joins forces with Mexican composer and violinist Gibrana Cervantes, one of the most outstanding string voices sounding across the most vital electronic and avant-garde music scenes of recent years. Together, the duo create dark and cabalistic ambient, all woven around intricate, gut-moving sonorities. Colombian Drone Mafia dissolves the boundaries between synthesis and field recordings, crafting experimental yet primitive textures that infect listeners through the layered melodic spaces that Gibrana masters.
We cordially invite you to listen to this journey of immersive drones through lush vegetation and concrete jungle, music that is at times contemplative and at other times violent. Hanging between deep listening and deep boredom, Memoria suspends a sonic archeology of Bogotá and its surroundings in looping repetition, evoking a dream. A glimpse of the sound of the end.
