[english]

this time we're travelling southbound – on two continents sharing the spanish tongue:

first with experimental electronics from argentina, with pieces by FLOR.CON.VENAS a.k.a. mariela arzadun and improvisations she created together with leandro ramirez and pedro de andrade.

afterwards the journey goes to grenade with a radio-phonographic piece of the same name by robin r.:

"Grenade (Granada) is a city
Grenade is a fruit
Grenade is an explosive…

Grenade has become for me a phonographic piece: the source of an immense joy, an address to air friends… it will always be difficult for me to speak of it because I experienced so many feelings during this exoteric trip! I know there was something decisive in it, something tragic. I hope it was not another lost paradise…
Rise up ! -the man shouted in his megaphone, before the Spanish police took him in front of the church exit, face to a muzzled crowd incapable to defend him." [R.R.]

Grenade was made from experimental walks in Andalusia by the Medit. groups.
Field-recordings by Carole Lorthiois and Unuagist. Composition by robin R. (rrdc.blogspot.com)
