Here is the ephemeral liveset I performed at Ultratech Chaos Lab 2.0, the second instalment of a party series dedicated to noise, livecoding, and other experimental stuff. This gig was a little special as it was the first time I played at the Diamant since Exploration 1 which took place something like 5 years ago. It was also the first time I used a random notes generator (you can hear it in the first part). I really enjoyed the 'melody cascade' feeling it gave to the whole piece. Will definitely reuse this kind of technique in the near future.

Special thanks to the Diamant team for hosting the event and 520Still for the awesome visuals he illustrated my liveset with, and big up to all the other artists involved: Azertype, Ralt144mi and Leon Denise from the Cookie Collective, Papirove Houby, Jules Cipher, Coloscope, William Stone, and Crash Server.

Live setup: Reason + MIDI controllers

The scenic artist and multi-instrumentalist @claraguilar moves from performing arts to cinema as a composer and live performer. Over the last few years he has created soundscapes that blend electronics and sampled elements with orchestral arrangements, becoming one of the main names of the Spanish theater scene when it comes to soundtrack and sound design creation.

After her acclaimed EP 'Mystery is All' Lapsus is proud to present 'Figura', CLARAGUILAR's debut album, a heartfelt tribute to her connection with the scenic world, and especially with the operatic universe. The starting point of this project was born with the concept of an "invisible orchestra", an imaginary that aesthetically becomes a reality on stage thanks to the collaboration with the Barcelona studio Oscila, as well as with the help of the stylist Joan Ros, who has been in charge of the costume design.

‘Figura' is a space in which electronica, ambient, and chamber-pop coexist; all under an operatic halo full of drama. Once again, the producer locked herself down from late 2022 to the beginning of 2023 to compose all the tracks in a very intimate and closed composition process. The album dives into the melodic landscapes, merged with orchestral samples and chopped voices containing mysterious messages inside. Each track is a pixelated lightshow and a live electronic instrumentation, presented onstage as an elegant performance with an expansive emotional range.
