The 94th contribution to our GUESTMIXES series is presented by Acacia Ojea aka AKAZIE, a multimedia artist and DJ born and based in the northwest of Spain. Her activity as a music selector is mostly focused on the post-club scene, with a great interest in discourses close to deconstructed and experimental electronic music. In particular, her mixes harbor a sonic spectrum full of musical nuances with special attention to rhythmic and digital timbre exploration and percussive electronic music,  with hints of the sounds that inhabit or border the piece of land designated as the Iberian Peninsula. So far, her mixes appeared on radio stations such as Offline Meeting Point (Barcelona), Internet Public Radio (México), and Ma3azef.

With a fine arts education and music training in classical piano and traditional Galician percussion, she developed her interest in sonic arts and expanded her studies in electroacoustics and digital audio synthesis while investigating different approaches to sound production and listening practices. Her background has given her the chance to consider the sonic environment a latent stimulus within her processes of assimilation, creation, and artistic research, while also bringing her to value sound as the primary medium to understand and access the world. Over the recent years, her sonic interventions and performance have been hosted by art centers such as Contemporary Art Fair Art Madrid, Centro de Arte Sonoro de Buenos Aires, and Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Vigo in Spain, as well as music festivals among which figure Dantz (Donostia), MMMAD (Madrid), and Sinsal (Galicia).

Today's piece is a 35-minute mixtape featuring cutting-edge tracks crafting a sound journey in the field of contemporary club and experimental, bursting digital electronics. Push the button!

PAYNOMINDTOUS GUESTMIX#94: AKAZIE

From the album Heave To on Sedimental records, released in 2006

Make The Land (Sedimental) Excerpt

Touching Hands And Feet

Destiny is a piece made from electronic audio materials created on an analog modular synthesizer following simple processes on signal treatment and the choice of a restrict palette as an aesthetic constraint, while keeping both an overall organic expressivity and a slightly des-articulated quality at the edge of compositional agency.

Variations and antecedents of this piece have been performed live in various electronic music festivals and events. The definitive version is a part of Sisbiosis, a collaborative album put together with the artist and musician Ryoko Akama, released in 2022 on Erstwhile records (US).

Destiny (Excerpt)

Narcoleptica @ temple chptr. 2 - 17/2/2024

Bea (@narcoleptica) explains:

"I had the great fortune of playing during the magical hour, starting in the daytime (which isn't very common), only to realize, at the end of the trance, that it was already night. The immersion was deep, and I can't recall details, only the sensation of having been in Temple and accessing other places, opening door after door of sounds, as in a dream. The arrangement of cushions on the floor of Espacio Perpendicular was very apt, allowing us to lie down with our eyes closed and finally see the music clearly, abruptly cutting off the continuous consumption of our energy that visual stimuli usually take. And yet, not ceasing to see beautiful images in our imagination. Many thanks to everyone who gathered there, and infinite thanks for inviting me to be part of something so special."
