Composer, researcher, saxophonist and professor from Buenos Aires, Argentina.

I have a degree in Music (Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero) and studies in Musical Composition (Centro de Estudios Avanzados en Música Contemporánea). I’m a professor of the Bachelor of Music at the Universidad Nacional de Tres de Febrero (UNTREF) and I teach at the Universidad de Palermo (U.P.) in the Area of Artistic and Musical Creation.

My work as a composer encompasses chamber music, mixed media, works for solo instruments, instrumental theatre, film music, sound art, instrumental post-rock, and popular music arrangements. I have received commissions from various instrumentalists, ensembles and institutions. My works have been performed by renowned musicians; presented at various festivals, cycles and concerts in Argentina, Uruguay and the United States.

Within the problems that I address in my compositions, some are technical and are related to compositional procedures and purely musical reflections (an art that speaks of itself) and others are of a philosophical nature and are related to the identity and constitution of the subject in so much dialogue with the Other (culture, society, history, the musical corpus). These problems are interrelated and are reflected, above all, through intertextual relationships and hybrid compositional processes.

In my works I apply various hybridization processes that bring together dissimilar techniques and sound universes. At the same time, I establish intertextual relations both intersemiotic (novels, poetry, paintings, assemblages) and intrasemiotic (elements of jazz, blues, rock or contemporary music).

My aesthetic is defined by a constant search and is usually more full of questions and ambiguities than certainties and absolutes.

BLEACH CULT is the musical nom de plume of Vytis Puronas, singer-songwriter and film sound designer, formerly one half of lo-fi synthpop outfit Soy Farm. His music is very textural and direct, with a genre-bending approach that explores post-punk aesthetics, minimal wave soundscapes and intriguing hooks with a pleasantly retro vibe.

BLEACH CULT is all about raw imperfections and beautiful spontaneity, captured live on analog modular synthesizers, often relying on single takes and instinctive executions of tracks that leave little to no room for extensive tweaking and post-processing. Quite interestingly, Bleach Cult’s music is hard to categorize under the umbrella of a single genre. Instead, Puronas creates a distinct noirish tone, which borrows from influences as diverse as post-punk, minimal wave, techno and even pre-war blues and 60s rockabilly, just to mention a few.
