PREMIERE: Pune - Copacabana [danzee records]

Very happy to welcome QOA for Wanderers 66 today! Nina Corti aka QOA is a Buenos Aires based musician who masterfully builds sound in and around environments, using - and drawing inspiration from - nature in particular. They create beautiful and meaningful listening experiences, ranging from very minimal en detailed, zoning in on acoustic objects like branches, to rich and vibrant collages like their album SAUCO. The latter is how I found about QOA, and I have been excited for new sounds ever since.  

QOA: 
'This episode is a wandering through our oceanic existences. A one-hour curated selection of music composed in front of Seto’s inner sea. This set was made feeling that force of the sea opening its path through the landscape—much like the dynamic, flowing energy within our own bodies.'

Enjoy this episode, I hope it transports and / or grounds you today :)

I highly recommend listening to Sauco:

Primeiro announces debut vinyl release: Music for Horses I & II

Unsettling the boundaries between the human and the non-human weaves through the fabric of Primeiro’s practice. Both his new album, inspired by a horse-related accident, and his project Feed the River—a festival where music is made in collaboration with bodies of water—seek to blur these lines.

Initially released digitally in 2024, Music for Horses I drew comparisons to the tranquility of Japanese cult artist Hiroshi Yoshimura, but a closer listen revealed deeper layers of intricate craftsmanship. Primeiro himself defines his style as “ambient manija” (rough translation: “obsessive ambient”).

Now, in June 2025, Music for Horses I & II arrives on vinyl through a collaboration between Sonôsfera (Buenos Aires), Danzee (Berlin), and EX:IN | IN:EX (Chemnitz). The record is split into two parts: side B was recorded prior to a horse-riding accident that deeply marked Primeiro’s life and released in 2024; side A was composed in the period following the accident and has not being released yet. 

The album’s sonic approach is rooted in floating arpeggios and meticulously crafted repetitive sequences, exploring the threshold between ambient and handcrafted electronics.

The digital version accompanying the vinyl release presents a reinterpretation of Music for Horses I. After receiving the vinyl pressing, Primeiro slowed down the record on a turntable, re-recorded the tracks, and layered them with drum machines. During his residency at EMS Stockholm, he further reshaped the sound, adding sub-bass textures using Buchla 100 and 200 synthesizers, and processing the material through tape machines to create warped, time-stretched versions of the original compositions.

In recent years, YouTube has sparked a quiet revolution in how we listen to music. "Stretched versions" of albums—where artists like Brian Eno, Hiroshi Yoshimura, and even pop songs like Justin Bieber’s “U Smile” are slowed down dramatically—have gone viral. These time-stretched interpretations turn melody into atmosphere, attack into pure decay, and songs into vast, ambient environments. Primeiro’s digital version of Music for Horses resonates deeply with this phenomenon. 

Music for Horses resonates within Primeiro’s broader body of work, where there is space for the non-human, much like in his Feed the River project, a site-specific performance that uses rivers as sonic bridges between musicians, audiences, and the environment. It has been carried out along the Spree in Berlin, the Elbe in Hamburg, and the Chemnitz River in Chemnitz. Artists are positioned along the riverbanks, creating a dialogue shaped by distance, flow, and acoustic resonance, inviting a collective re-imagining of our relationship with water as a living entity.

READ > inverted-audio.com/premiere-primeiro-the-appearance

Buenos Aires-based platform Sonôsfera teams up with Berlin’s Danzee and EX:IN | IN:EX to present 'Music For Horses I & II', the latest vinyl release from Argentinian sound artist Primeiro...A standout moment from the release is the slowed-down version of 'The Appearance' - a besotted medley of rearranged harp chords, warped synths, and micro-glitch drum patterns. The result is a a lofty composition of sublime ambiance.
