TÚMtum es el proyecto solista de Jaime Reinoso, activo ciudadano de la ciudad de Los Andes, lugar que vio el génesis del dúo Mostro la década pasada. Reinoso nuevamente empuña las baquetas en plan castigador para extraer ritmos extravagantes que sugieren el fin matemático del ritmo como mera explicación de las realidades que se acompañan por un distendido juego de teclados y ruidos afines que a primera escucha nos remiten al sentido macabro de los descubrimientos de las infancias pasadas y futuras. Tal como reza el nombre, TÚMtum es la fonética del ritmo hecho carne, el verbo lo barajamos en unos futuros cercanos.

A cabinetmaker by trade.  I have been recording birds for over 42 years.  Even as a seven year old I loved to hear the sound of birds. 
I believe that birdsong is a perfect reflection of the natural environment and yet a part of the experience of the environment.  
Over the years I have made some wildlife films and videos.  For wildlife recording I have been around Ireland, Wales, Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Belize, Guyana, Brazil, Peru and Costa Rica. At the moment I have 26 albums of birdsong/nature, most of which can be found here for free download in high quality F.L.A.C. format.
  
Birdsong is Spiritual Medicine,
a Natural Treasure 
and a Companion to Silence.
