Duration: 1 min 12 s
Description: The third album from Films, a dark fantasy music project formed by the instrumental band Anoice, featuring dark cinematic sounds with two female vocalists, who sing in their own originally created languages.

Jaime Bermúdez Escamilla adopted his pen name from the late poet María del Adarve. A music enthusiast, as well as a composer and sound designer, Jaime was always compelled by what awaits at the intersection where music, words and images meet, and how the audience takes part in that exchange. His work has found its place in film, theater and video games over the past decade.

He began to develop his passion for music at the age of 12, when he started taking classical piano lessons in his hometown in Andalusia. At age 17 he joined a metal band, which is what you do at that age. A natural-born geek, he then bought his first Pro Tools equipment and began writing and producing fun instrumental pieces that sounded a lot like movie soundtracks. Not long after, he would start collaborating with friends on their projects, writing music for live art performances, short films and small games.

In 2015, Jaime co-founded his own video game company, an adventure that would give way to his freelance career in the sector. On the side, he’s an interactive music lecturer at the University of Barcelona and he also writes for the classical music magazine Press Music.

The music in Neu, his upcoming debut EP, was first conceived for the stage. In early 2019, Catalan playwright Bernat Muñoz commissioned Jaime’s music and sound for his soon-to-be premiered stage play. Neu delicately portrays the reunion between Tea, a woman with autism, and her sister Ada, following the death of their mother. Each piece is dedicated to each of the women in the story. The songs that were originally born from this script are now revisited and reshaped as an independent body of work. They were recorded live at Sol de Sants Studios in September 2022.

Neu releases on the 24th of March, featuring photographs taken by Jaime and graphic design by Celia Bayo.

It's been three years since the instrumental music band featuring a dark and cinematic sound, Anoice, released their fourth EP 'invisible wall’, which expressed the world that has been facing off against the effects of the the COVID-19 pandemic. They will release the fifth EP 'unerasable fire' which pairs with 'invisible wall' on April 7th, 2023.

Just like the previous EP, it mainly consists of quiet and dark neo-classical compositions such as 'the suspicion' and 'keep silence' featuring Films, who sing in their own originally created languages in the same named project produced by Anoice, and Calu who is the vocalist of the electronica unit, Matryoshka. It also includes exciting songs that mix the sounds of a spectacular orchestra sound with instrumental rock such as 'civil war' and 'monster'.

Division, isolation, and war. This is new release which Anoice can only express at a time when the world confronts new problems generated after the pandemic period. Please have a listen to the previous EP 'invisible wall' again while you wait for the upcoming 'unerasable fire'.

This is a collaboration single entitled 'Ice Mermaid' made by Takahiro Kido and Yuki Murata, music composers who also are active as members of Anoice, RiLF, and Films, together with Kenji Azuma, an ambient music artist who plays a range of unusual instruments.

This song is based on an illustration featuring a mermaid in the ice world painted by MATSURICA who also takes charge of the artworks for some of the releases from Anoice, Yuki Murata, and Films, and is divided into four parts; the ground, the sea, the seabed, and the finale. The most notable point is that the basis of the sounds of the song are created from materials which are related to ice and water. The sounds of stepping on snow, waves, breathing, whale calling and mermaid's singing. You can feel the cold sea via the sounds expressed by the ice and water.

Ice Mermaid

Ice Mermaid (Anoice / Takahiro Kido, Yuki Murata, Kenji Azuma 'Ice Mermaid')

This is a memory of Lisbon, Portugal.
I improvised to the sounds of Lisbon.

I released an album on MiMi Records, based in Portugal. It’s a collection of sounds I’ve collected and improvisations.
Even though I created most of the tracks in a playful way, I’m really happy to share them with you.

I'm starting a project called Sound Diaries.
I travel, collect sounds of places, and improvise.
This project captures memories of the days.
