The Spanish composer is still listening to the world. He seeks its purity in sound when the relation between cause/effect is broken. A modern reading of the Greek acousmatics (akousmatikoi) where the pythagoreans listened to their master from behind the black veil, without seeing him. Francisco López listens to the world with the eyes shut, and reconfigures it accordingly to the secret logic of sound. With so many interesting sounds in reality, the uselessness of adding more elements to the world or even of imitating them is revealed. Within this radical process of refinement to the extreme of the musical purism, he rejects all of the visual, relational, semantic, functional and virtuosistic elements. All that is left is the wonderful essence of sound. The complex territories of a new aural perception, rediscovered by the force of immersion. On the deep listening, López makes acoustic art from locations. To this absolute musique-concrete, the composer likes to call the “belle confusion”.

This mcd, placed within Francisco López more silence oriented pieces, is a new approach to his soft and abstract conception of the world as a generator of sound.

Within the audible texture, the drone comes and lies down on a bed of a subtle pulse. The composition then develops in a progressively but dramatic way. On a single breath, the sole theme of constant intensity fills the hears with velvet bass tones.

The Spanish composer working closer to silence, within the physical boundaries of sound, exploring our fascination for the lower frequencies.
