Maqui de Hierro {Essential Sounds collection}

by Jardín

supported by

Elysian Fields - KXCI 91.3 FM Super interesting cyclical experimental music. Thumalpu really drew me in and I had to listen to it a few times to understand the attraction. Best I can figure is it's like staring at a noisy electronic whirlpool... you just can't pull yourself away.

If David Cronenberg was still directing movies, these tracks would fit right in. Favorite track: Thumalpu.

about

(scroll down for english version)

Jardín estuvo integrado por Orlando Ramírez y Raúl Gómez, y ha sido un verdadero grupo de culto del underground experimental limeño desde que se dieron a conocer a fines de los 90s, cuando empezaron a tocar en eventos de música electrónica así como en performances de arte y danza. “Maqui de hierro”, su cuarto trabajo publicado, definió el universo sónico del dúo, en el que confluye la experimentación electrónica cósmica con hipnóticos patrones rítmicos inspirados en músicas de percusión rituales de la amazonía, usando feedback de consola procesada por pedales, cajas de ritmos y ocarinas (instrumento de viento prehispánico). El trabajo de Jardín puede relacionarse con el de otras grandes luminarias de la repetición rítmica como Silver Apples, Suicide, Esplendor Geométrico o Pansonic, un sonido que encuentra en “Maqui de Hierro” una encarnación singular: metálicas cajas rítmicas que dirigen el trance en medio de ecos y capas de sonidos reverberantes, en una especie de trip de drone dub rítmico. Aparecido en formato cassete el 2005, “Maqui de Hierro” presenta grabaciones del 2002 y 2003, realizadas durante sus intensos e inolvidables conciertos, así como también en sesiones grabadas en su refugio Cuarto Azul, ubicado en una zona industrial de Lima. Grabado íntegramente en vivo y directo a cinta de carreta abierta, “Maqui de hierro” se publica ahora por primera vez en formato vinilo, como parte de la colección Sonidos Esenciales, con la que Buh Records da a conocer una serie de álbumes fundamentales de la experimentación sonora en el Perú.

ENGLISH VERSION

Jardín was made up of Orlando Ramírez and Raúl Gómez, and has been a true cult band of Lima's experimental underground since they made themselves known at the end of the 1990s, when they started playing at electronic music venues as well as in the context of art performances and contemporary dance events. "Maqui de hierro", their fourth published work, defined the sonic universe of the duo, in which electronic cosmic experimentation converges with hypnotic rhythmic patterns inspired by ritual percussion music from the Amazon, using console feedback processed by pedals, drum machines and ocarinas (prehispanic wind instrument). Jardín's work can be related to that of other great luminaries of rhythmic repetition such as Silver Apples, Suicide, Esplendor Geométrico or Pansonic, a sound that finds in "Maqui de Hierro" a singular incarnation: metallic drum machines that lead the trance between echoes and layers of reverberant sounds, in a kind of rhythmic drone dub trip. Appeared in cassette format in 2005, "Maqui de Hierro" collects recordings of 2002 and 2003, made during intense and unforgettable concerts, as well as in recorded sessions at the duo's private haven known as Cuarto Azul, located in an industrial zone of Lima. Recorded entirely live and direct to open reel tape, "Maqui de hierro" is now published for the first time in vinyl format, as part of the Essential Sounds collection, with which Buh Records discloses a series of fundamental albums
of Peruvian sound experimentation. (Luis Alvarado)

I don't know how to describe the feeling I get from listening to this album besides a sense of relief, if you catch my drift. Besides feelings, musicianship is all spades, great hooks/grooves that expand into solid forms. Overall 9.5/10, thank you Silver Scrolls/Three Lobed Recordings. FraterOiram

Angel, I heard your interview with Jason Woodbury on Aquarium Drunkard's "Transmissions" podcast today. It was truly remarkable and touched my heart. I bought this album immediately afterward and am so grateful to you for this nourishing music in these strange, trying days. I hope I can time my next trip to Chicago to be able to see you perform live. Thank you! Michael Feltes
