AirPod N°4 – Paulo – Performancia
March 4, 2008
Last Thursday I was asked to play at an Artists’ Performance. Basically this means that they needed me to bring a musical vibe into their visual and ethereal world; music and art: the most essential and natural enhancement. Nowadays a party can’t be imagined to be organised without a VJ of some sorts. But playing especially for artists is quite a different feel. Just like a VJ has to adapt his visuals to the DJ’s music, there I had to adapt my music to the vibe of the artists, painting and creating, who in turn were themselves receiving the different sonic waves I was sending them for 6 hours in a row. One of the performing artists even dropped his own recorded sounds of doors creaking, trains passing by, and kids singing on the streets of Buenos Aires over the music. Remember that it’s summer here in Argentina, and the feel is more than tropical (although it has been raining for a week now!) and mixing Microhouse with African Percussions, Peruvian Flutes and Bolivian instruments seemed the most instinctive to do.
