This piece receive a special mention during the "Bienal of Radio from Mexico" and has been broadcasted on more than 30 radio, web-radio and on the Radia Network.

RESUME:
Mexico City: more than 20 millions people gathered making noise!
A noisy city for most; I would like to transform it in a sonorous city.

The street sellers make the voices of the polyphonic choir, the small bell from the ice cream seller substitutes the triangle from the orchestra, and the hammering of the protesters on the metallic wall are the percussions.

In Mexico City, people shout to be heard, they shout their rage against the cops, they shout at the ‘lucha libre’ fights, they shout together ¡ Viva Mexico ! to feel united, and during a demonstration they also shout ¡Viva Mexico ! People shout in church, they pray together or alone, whispering in the silent night.

The thunder booms: nobody can shout at the storm, and the rain cleans the silent city.  A solo voice after the rain, and the choir resumes gradually. 

People sing to forget and the shouting starts again, louder, so that the others don´t forget.

The water flows under the city, the forgotten lake is mourning; it remembers when the city was an Island… On the top, it is too noisy, underneath, the water keeps in silence the secrets of the past.

INTENTION
Most of the people in the world live in cities. The daily soundscape is in most of the case a continuous sound of traffic, close or distant. Mexico City has a series of sounds added to the background which make the specificity of the city: the cries and sounds of the street sellers are in most part responsible.
In the past, most cities had their own cries (as some classical music can testify, like ‘Les cris de Paris’ from Janequin). In Mexico City, this tradition has persisted until today,  but the government and general opinion is not in favour of them: street sellers are each time further away from the touristic center, advertising campaigns are done to make them disappear from the subway, and police operations block their access to the streets.

I would like to pay tribute to these Criers through a soundscape of Mexico City, that will become a sonorous memory of a time that sooner than later will disappear.

Los gritos de Mexico

El agua fluye y adquiere distintas formas mientras sus trayectos ocurren. Así ocurre esta pieza comisionada a Félix Blume para el ciclo de Irradiación, quien compila y compone a partir de una convocatoria abierta al público a través de CCD Radio, solicitando audios referentes al tema del agua con motivo del Día mundial de la escucha. El 18 de julio del 2015 se celebró dicho evento y aquí se presenta su síntesis: un fluir-paisaje-documento que recorre a través de diversos registros las transformaciones sonoras de un ejercicio de memoria colectiva. ¿Qué formas cobra el agua en el imaginario popular? ¿Cómo asumimos su flujo, su mercantilización, su carencia e incluso los sonidos que produce?

https://soundcloud.com/felixblume nace en el sur de Francia en 1984. Estudió Sonido en Toulouse y el INSAS, de Bruselas. Ha trabajado principalmente como ingeniero de sonido de documentales independientes y con algunos vídeoartistas. Pasa su tiempo entre Europa y México. Graba sonidos durante sus viajes alrededor del mundo y los comparte en Internet, sobre todo en plataformas como Freesound y Soundcloud. También trabaja en creaciones sonoras personales, convirtiendo sus sonidos en "postales sónicas” y paisajes sonoros que se han emitido por @arte-radio-1 y @phaune-radio, entre otros.

Preparant Flotante ...

Sirto is a typical dance and musical form encountered in various musical idioms of Greece, especially in the islands of Aegean sea, Minor Asia, Istanbul wider area, as well as continental regions of nowdays Greece. Sirto (literally meaning 'shuffled'), is an ancient dance which travelled and evolved through time,  gaining different styles and getting incorporated by many different folk traditions, giving a unique musical and dance 'flavour' to each one of them.
This composition is based on Cretan Sirto, outside strict formalities that may be present in discussions around abstractly so-called ''traditional'' music.  I consider it mostly as an contemporary approach of the way i perceived Cretan music through the years of my living in Crete, as well as a little, but always present, part of my relation with the island.

Composed, arranged, recorded, mixed and mastered by Nikos Papachristou at 'Eviho' SoundLab, Epanomi Thessaloniki (2015) *except from Lyra, recorded in Crete by Paul Goodman  and Stamna recorded by Alekos Papadopoulos at Music Workshop, Thessaloniki

Sirto Kürdi - Συρτό Κιουρντί

A sound installation for FONEMA, Ex Teresa, Mexico City  (March 2016). Curated by Enrique Arriaga & Esteban King.

Instalación sonora. 10 bocinas con lector integrado, cables, extractos de impresos del archivo, fotocopias y fotografías. 2016

Esta obra se inscribe en la memoria sonora de Ex Teresa, un edificio donde se practicaba la vida religiosa y la liturgia católica. La sensación que provoca la instalación cuando se escucha a la distancia busca evocar sonidos que se asemejan a rezos. Estas letanías que se disipan por la capilla, son fragmentos de textos extraídos del CDXT; específicamente, se trata de diversas definiciones de ruido que, en conjunto, producen un nuevo ruido. Las grabaciones de los susurros provienen de las voces de trabajadores del museo, habitantes cotidianos de este espacio.

Colaboradores: Cecilia Sanchez Nava, Despina Panagiotopoulou, Gabriel Eliseo Trejo Gámez, Guillermina Amneris Camargo López, Jesús Fernando Álvarez Sáenz, Luisa Rojas Ramírez, Margarita Alvarado Del Valle, María Elena Quezada Flores, Norma Mercedes Villegas Martínez, Ofelia De La Rosa Olivera, Rosalía Ángeles Salvador, Tomasa Mendoza Hernández.

Discurs de l'Hilari Salvadó per la Festa Major de la Barceloneta 2016

Claire, I’m writing you from a train station in Paris, which is less a place to be, than a total displacement. For 3 days it’s been raining over us, a constant mist that soaks my head immediately upon peeking outside. So I stay in, looking out, confined by my own feet. It’s my exterminating angel. I feel lonely and extinguished.

This song comes from the illusion of loneliness.
An internal compass is somewhere, waiting to be rediscovered.
