pic by photobooth. perfect summer noon, in a tent. - this was in pont-á-mousson at the end of soundcheck. i'd play that night and a few nights later i'd take part of the billshare with jane birkin. she was really nice.

some people call me champi.

i am thinking up a new piece that involves live music, live singing, microphones, a sound system, sparse lighting and some form of video. i wanna record it to multitrack (i've recorded my own concerts to multitrack since the end of the nineties).

i have the songs and i have the rehearsed singer. we're ready in that.

now we need to stage it. it tends to be a recital but there could be a film or play or filmed play wrapped around it or vice versa.

xo.

been looking at documentaries and work realted to pino solanas, jorgen leth, hal hartley, margarita martínez, miguel salazar and the gorgeous adriana salazar.

been listening to rosario bléfari, suarez, javiera mena, the houdinis, kate bush, super furry animals, juan gabriel, blondie.

i sing, compose, arrange, record, mix, remix, and produce professional records. el oficio en la sangre.

i sound engineer for live acts, the theatre, post for documentaries. i've done large format sound installations and "des mises."

i also have a pop duo called verde3. a songlab, lacking a better word.

happily taken! my dear adriana builds these gorgeous automats and then you get to read what she writes about them!

abrazos
