a_mal_gam_a
Audiovisual adventures in the musical underworld.

a_mal_gam_a, a cell of independent musical action expressed through the medium of sound and image in diverse spaces and contexts.

a_mal_gam_a took shape when Diskoan (DJ) and Jose Salas aka Josephine’s Soundscapes (art director) joined forces to create a research platform to enjoy electronic music beyond conventional parameters. 

Self produced and published, a_mal_gam_a materializes in performance sets, sessions and fiestas, as well as through mixtapes, audiovisual content, collaborations and other formats.

Aventuras audiovisuales en el submundo musical.

a_mal_gam_a es una célula de acción musical independiente, cuyo campo de trabajo es el sonido, la imagen y su mezcla en diferentes espacios y situaciones.

a_mal_gam_a es el nombre de este colectivo formado por el Dj Diskoan y por el director de arte Jose Salas. Ambos han unido fuerzas para crear esta plataforma de investigación y disfrute de la música electrónica más alejada de los parámetros convencionales, incidiendo en sus vertientes estéticas y conceptuales.

Realism only exist in the capturing of an image. Realism only manifest itself as a recording, as the archiving of an event. But the event itself is an act of creation--a totally unreal situation. Thus unless the act of creation is recorded, it cannot ever be realistic. Movements, moments, memories, recordings, are all rooted in realism. 
The act is based on surrealism. Thus, every event is surreal. Only in retrospect does an event become real. The paradox of real-surreal imagery reconciles itself as a act of creation and the recording of that act and its emotions. Essentially they work in tandem. But when the images become corrupted, commoditized, or spectacularized, they become the work of capital. This is the point in which the image becomes spectacle. 
Fascist propaganda and coke commercials do not portray a surreal situation or a real situation, but there own ideal situation. Cinema then becomes corrupted for capital. That is to say, it commodifies. Realism can be interpreted, examined, influenced, or even simply portrayed. The unrealistic notion of a controlled ideal situation is edited, manipulated, exploited, or altered. The ideal situation is the masquerade of the image. Just look at those beautiful shots of the Nazi celebrations: They portray an impossible ideal becoming possible as an image. Realism portrays an impossible idea becoming possible in action. Everyone wants to become a fascist to prefigure an idea into action via an image.

「自分はまだまだスキルや経験としては非常に未熟です。本当はこんなものを世に放ったところで、それを聴いて良いと思ってくれる人なんて居ないかもしれません。表現せずにはいられないという極めて強い思いが、そのまま音となって出てきたような作品達。自分のそのときの最善を尽くしているつもりですが、それが世の中で面白いと思われるとは限りません。
自分が今まで聴いて良いと思ってきた作品のように、何か感動するものを作りたいだけなのですが、とても難しいと感じています。2023/8/10」
